  • I love my dear Jeff, I have over 20 Lilac trees planted in his memory, every year when they bloom my heart feel with joy, He had such a short time to offer the world but he did it with pure talent and an angelic voice, he makes my pulse race and tears flow, I miss him more with every passing year.

  • amutinyinheaven is correct - Jeff was a big Nina Simone fan.

  • @dizzi0000 He said in an interview he was inspired to cover the song by Nina Simone's version, not Elkie Brooks.

  • Incantevole!

    

  • @frobsey Yes It is an Elkie Brooks cover, as Elkie was the only singer to bring it into the charts. Elkie is a great singer.

  • should really say Elkie Brooks cover, though I love Simone she was only the third best singer of this song.

  • Elkie Brooks version is soooooooo good.

  • @Eamonn20a Just listened to it and it is no where near as amazing as Buckley's version. No one can even touch the emotion that came out each time Jeff sang.

  • Why do people say this is a Nina Simone cover. It was recorded by a lot of people before Buckley, not only Simone.The only singer to have chart success with this song was Elkie Brooks.

  • Jeff, Jeff, Jeff always was Jeff and Jeff it will always be. I miss this man immensly and always will.
