“Suddenly, before the last chorus, a string broke on his acoustic guitar, and Jeff sang the lines “Sometimes, I wonder for a while/Do you ever remember me?” unaccompanied. If that weren’t dramatic enough, his voice spiraled up on the last word-“me”-like a thin plume of smoke, holding on for a moment before drifting up to the ceiling. He took a quick bow, said “thanks,” and trotted offstage, and the concert ended. It would not have been a more perfect finale if he had planned it.” [“Dream Brother”, David Browne]
I think he's trying to stop himself from crying. He said in an interview he couldn't play the song at home without weeping and struggled to keep himself together singing it on stage that night.
I can hear the torture in his voice in the beginning while he tells the intro story. It must have been so hard for him to get this song out, but he did it! As an artist I know that struggle, it’s real.
Jeff shared fact he was not invited to Father Tim's funeral and very few people knew of his existence....But Tim's Manager did and wanted Jeff there....Closure for Jeff? Jeff did not want his name used in program/Tribute. Last song Jeff acknowledged himself/Existence. Profoundly Sad❤️
For Jeff not hard just inspiring. To climb this mountain. With no body waiting at the top when performed except this internal ghost... this... is beautiful. I wish i was. What my father wanted to be
Interesting change Jeff made to this song lyrically.. he changed “Will you ever, remember me?” to “Do you ever, remember me?”.. turning that question to ask his father in his afterlife..
@@TheMrYeppers Yes but he changed the lyrics “sometimes I wonder for a while will you ever remember me” to “do you ever remember me” as if posing the question to his father. So yes, that is a personal message to his father.
I been told that " a song can be anything you want it to be', this song found me after being retired from the military and the failed relationship that followed. She didn't like what came home.
Once I was a soldier And I fought on foreign sands for you Once I was a hunter And I brought home fresh meat for you Once I was a lover And I searched behind your eyes for you And soon there'll be another To tell you I was just a lie And sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever remember me And though you have forgotten All of our rubbish dreams I find myself searching Through the ashes of our ruins For the days when we smiled And the hours that ran wild With the magic of our eyes And the silence of our words And sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever remember me
Tim wasn’t really a fame seeker, neither was Jeff. Their voices are poignant and significant Their deaths are tragic and they both shared a lot. We can still learn from their lives and I try to remember every day.
This was his fathers stuff that he first listened to when he was 5. Only met him for a few days when he was 8 before he died at 28 from heroine overdose. Much disdain towards his father throughout his life.
I've always wondered what would Tim have thought or felt about his son's voice as singing. After listened to this, I somehow feel like Tim was there that day in that church, summoned by Jeff’s presence. It's like they're talking to each other through it, Jeff making his peace with his father and Tim... accepting his son’s forgiveness, a son to whom he endowed so much of his inner self. The strings of the guitar breaking at the end tho, and Jeff’s solo voice that carries on the last few words of the lyrics, it gives me shivers every time, just like the touch of a ghost.
All we need is Love, Faith, and Hope. But the greatest of these three is and always will be Love. So if you are struggling with depression, or anxiety, or loneliness... if you are so tired of this world with the war, the exonomic crisis... if you are exhausted of this world, exhausted to be someone, exhausted to show a happy face in this society...if you feel like I feel... Don't give up. Love will survive.
tim and jeff's stories are the stories that most make me believe in supernatural afterlife soul stuff, hidden in plain sight. it's just insane, the connections
@@rayaqin Jeff truly loved playing cafes and small gigs, and did so under weird monikers even after he became famous so as to make the experience more organic. He expressed how much he missed the intimacy of small shows and just showing up and playing as just man, not a big name. He almost didn't play this show because he didn't want his namesake to be the "springboard for his career".
@@rayaqin It means he gave up his privacy and allowed people to know that he was the son of Tim Buckley and to be compared to him and all that. He didn't really want to be all that famous or known as the son of Tim Buckley or be compared to him. So he sacrificed all of that so that people could remember and recognize his father's music and talents. If he kept quiet most of us might not have known about Tim Buckley. The sad part is the second half of that quote - I'm guessing his father left and abandoned him to pursue his music career.
Difference between him and his dad is detail. Jeff’s voice was intricate, whereas his father was very abrasive and strong. Jeff was pretty close to perfection with his voice for a man or woman.
listen to phantasmagoria in two before trying to say Tim Buckley had an abrasive voice. or better yet the original recording for the song Jeff is literally covering
You clearly haven't listened enough to Tim Buckley. Listen to his live album Dreamletter in London or his album Lorca, 'Driftin' is as intricate as you can get, the control of timbre and mood he has is unparalleled.
I spoke to Lee Underwood (Tim's guitarist and long time friend) recently via facebook regarding the time he spoke with Jeff. It's a sad story as a whole. Tim was just a kid trying to make it and after his death Lee was the voice his friend didn't have. He said Jeff was seeing someone to help with issues regarding Tim. I don't know if that is true but if so good for Jeff.
@@marosimálna this show was mostly fictional just so you know. It is a horrible representation of the Buckleys and certainly of Jeff. Read Dream Brother and the newest book published in 2019 by his manager Dave Lory...From Hallelujah to the last goodbye. Great reads and a great education
@@hopelove6658 I wouldn't underestimate the representation of the movie. Even though it's not a documentary it shows the emotional side of things well. Thanks for the book recommender, I know about then, but I don't live in America, so then...
Just like an absolute legend needs to be portrayed by multiple actors, (The Dylan movie) it seems like the legend of Buckley played out over two eras through two unbelievably talented artists!
Man, I am so saddened by this man's death- a man that I didn't really know, and who couldn't know me. I can't even begin to imagine how Jeff dealt with everything surrounding his father. It's all so horrible. Jeff, you were amazing Thank you for sharing yourself with the world
it's curious that after listening to both versions, jeff's one expresses to me a lot more than his father's... Jeff really utters a lot of emotion with his voice... it's amazing...
I recently listened to a recommended playlist on Spotify and came across the Jimmy Buckley version of this song. I was blown away and of course it reminded me so much of Jeff that I investigated further.... they looked and sounded alike and are so unique. I hope neither are ever forgotten
I wish Jeff had recorded an album singing only his dads songs. I assert the live versions are without equal, but the album would have been cherished by many of us
Breton Wescott Sounds 4d version of His father. - From a shitless slave region of humanism being suffered under hoon-tribe-originated-parasitism and kiki'she' collectivism which is known as the name 'Korea', whose dwellers always steals and begs from Japan's original history which clearly inherited sincere humanity in Ancient Cudara more than its 'original' dwellers in hometown.

They were just different ~No One had the voice that Tim Buckley had. Even Jeff. But Jeff's was as pure and beautiful. Tim has a deep warm resonance that expressed itself differently in Jeff. I was in a position to often hear Tim sing ,live. The first song I ever heard him sing was the Tennessee Waltz playing solo guitar, and it was the most heart breakingly beautiful thing I think I had ever heard,.

Awesome to say the least wonderful comment! Lol bless u rip Jeff will always love this song! Touched me to the max! 👍❤️🤟☮️😻😪
You actually hear the string break, never noticed that before.
He probably broke them purposely.
i guess I'm pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to watch new movies online?
@Gael Trenton Flixportal :)
I'm so happy this exists.
I love how you can hear Jeff doing sharp exhales through his mouth, as a way to calm his nerves. Such a gorgeous tribute to the father he never knew.
I think he's trying to stop himself from crying. He said in an interview he couldn't play the song at home without weeping and struggled to keep himself together singing it on stage that night.
@@yardmanharris I often think how it mustve been to hear people bring up Tim so lightly without understanding how hard it was
He was so green here.
I've listened to his Dad singing this almost every other day for over 50 years. Never knew til today that his son covered it.
Coming Home.
I can hear the torture in his voice in the beginning while he tells the intro story. It must have been so hard for him to get this song out, but he did it! As an artist I know that struggle, it’s real.

The sweetness and sadness in his voice
0:30 🙁

Garrick Vachs very sad, hainting sound. like someone or an animal deeply wounded. so sad they are both gone
such a sad thing
It's like eric said: would you know my name?
His song "What will you say" is a crushing sequel to this tribute to his father
This comment brought tears to my eyes.
you can hear Jeff, mostly before but also while he's singing, trying to stop himself from crying... heartbreaking and breathtaking interpretation
That was a personal message to his dad, so intensely haunting and wonderful vocals
garry England actually this is his dads song Jeff is playing at a memorial to his father. Tim wrote this.
Mr Yep Yes but it’s still a message to his father.
@@TheMrYeppers Yes but he changed the lyrics “sometimes I wonder for a while will you ever remember me” to “do you ever remember me” as if posing the question to his father. So yes, that is a personal message to his father.

She didn't like what came home.
But we all appreciate that we ..at least ..didn't have to go ..because you and many others did and do.People can be so ungrateful don't you think
Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there'll be another
To tell you I was just a lie
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you ever remember me
And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you ever remember me
Tim wrote that.
Im crying again. Its most beatfull singing emotion in the world
Tim wasn’t really a fame seeker, neither was Jeff. Their voices are poignant and significant Their deaths are tragic and they both shared a lot. We can still learn from their lives and I try to remember every day.
I think tim sought it more than jeff after all he left his family for it
@@adonaiyah2196 That's not why he left. It was much deeper than that, and he always had Jeff on his mind.
@@imhmedia howd you know
@@adonaiyah2196 I knew Tim.
@@imhmedia okay would please tell me about him. Info on him personally is scarce
Anyone else get a sense of loneliness listening to this? Beautiful stuff
This was his fathers stuff that he first listened to when he was 5. Only met him for a few days when he was 8 before he died at 28 from heroine overdose.
Much disdain towards his father throughout his life.
@@hopelove6658 Tim was 28 when he died.
@@marosimálna yes. He got married at 18 to Mary Guibert who was only 17. They had Jeffrey Scott 2 years later after she had a "phantom " pregnancy.
I mistyped "38" instead of 28.
Yes, i do.
This song reminds me that life is suffering but it also reminds me that life can be meaningful enough to justify that suffering.
Thank you
I performed this with Gary Lucas 27 years later in Catanzaro, IT on 26.04.2018. Still have goosebumps

There are two there now peering out when the music echoes. Haunting and beautiful.. eerie, even. Like a dance of two souls caught forever in time.
I couldn’t here any strings snap
Hear
@@richardjohnson7379 You can hear it at 3:55.
jetglo330 😂 yeah I heard it
What a beautiful soul
his honesty is what made him a great artist..you can't have great art without it.even as a performer. sad he passed.
Who ever remastered this is truly doing the lords work! I’ve listened to the original so many times & this is just incredible. 1 million thanks!
I was impressed that the day would come when I could listen to this song like this. It seems that the soul dwells in the singing voice.
makes me always cry...so much feelings in this ....so sad and so beautiful ♫ ♥

Haunting!!! Just recently, listening to both Buckley's. You wonder if they had lived longer, could they have produced more Amazing Music?
tim and jeff's stories are the stories that most make me believe in supernatural afterlife soul stuff, hidden in plain sight. it's just insane, the connections
I sacrificed my anonymity for my father, whereas he sacrificed me for his fame. ...jB
waw!
what did he mean by sacrificing his anonymity? Just by being the son of someone famous or what?
They were both incredible musicians. So true though and heartbreaking.

@@wildviolet3973 You need to listen to more of Jeff’s stuff then. This was very early on & although chillingly beautiful, not a fair comparison.
@@iLitAfuseiCantStop Thank you. I am familiar with the works of Jeff. But i've always preferred his father's voice and songs.

If he was six when he first heard it then Tim was still alive.
Yes. He absolutely was.
So beautiful--operatic almost.
it's curious that after listening to both versions, jeff's one expresses to me a lot more than his father's... Jeff really utters a lot of emotion with his voice... it's amazing...
Well Jeff's voice has more soul than Tim but Tim also sang from his heart, you can hear it clearly.
Mostly... But in "Pleasant street" you can feel that soul in Tim's voice, i enjoy both voices :)
Why does one have to be better than the other? Why not just enjoy both?
And it is also the opinion, the same as "jeff's one expresses to me a lot more than his father's... (version)". The question is superfluous.
"Jeff's voice has more soul than Tim" .. comment fail :/ that one hurt my eyes.
Qué dulzura era Jeff. Amo a Tim, pero la dulzura de Jeff es increíble... Hermosísima versión.
I’m speechless 🥲🥲
Omg. Absolutely haunting. Ethereal.
Surpreendente, emocionante e maravilhoso!❤

Just beautiful after all these years. carol kaminski
Yes.
This is stunning. Love him
Only love for Jeff, always
What a great dude musician will never get over u being gone way too f in soon love ya Jeff rip this is a wonderful song!!!! 👍❤️☮️🤟😻🎶🔥🙏🎵😭😪
He sounds very much like his Father
Only 3 octaves higher.
Tim también llegaba a 4 octavas.
Jeff sings Tim… and it’s magic…
I wish Jeff had recorded an album singing only his dads songs. I assert the live versions are without equal, but the album would have been cherished by many of us
I was like hmmmmmm... six
😂
Love the spontaneity he had!
Listening to this I realise that Jeff starts this song with the same vocal “ouu” note he starts Mojo Pin with, the first song on Grace 🤯
💓 choukran habibi
damm beautifull
So moving! 😥
Te amo
Jeff Buckley is Epico👍
Great boy..
Words fail me…..
Cool
I relate.
His dad would have been so impressed
omg thats so sad
🕯
every octave!!!!!
Tim and Jeff could have been Just One thing. Same voice same skill at singing same emotional result...Life s strage isn It?
Jeff took it to the next level....and then left all of us unrequited.

Sounds 4d version of His father.
- From a shitless slave region of humanism being suffered under hoon-tribe-originated-parasitism and kiki'she' collectivism which is known as the name 'Korea', whose dwellers always steals and begs from Japan's original history which clearly inherited sincere humanity in Ancient Cudara more than its 'original' dwellers in hometown.
Sure damn well is wonder bout that myself great comment 👍❤️☮️🤟
damn. multiverse
So poignant. A great loss
Very sad end to both Tim and Jeff Buckley.
Two great Singer....but the Genius is Tim.......
✌ ❤ 🎶 🌎
As a huge fan of both father and sons music, father Tim’s version was the better of the two on this particular song!
Jeff "it was boring"
Also Jeff - gives us that
…soon they’ll come another, to tell you i was just a lie…and sometimes i wonder, for awhile…do you ever remember me?….
This song needs a stereo remix
what a ponce
4:00 siento que en esta parte casi se quiebra la voz de Jeff :(
Sums up my feelings about the Vietnam War in one song. The old man would be proud. ✌
Thats why Tim did it. To get into the mainstream at the timr
Jeff wasn’t a Rock n’ Roller but a haunting crooner even with all the swirling rhythm sections. Such an Irony that the limitation of both the father and the son remained the same.

I thought he made rock music. Yard of Blonde Girls is a straight out great pop rock song.
Мм..Тим, конечно, свою песню лучше пел, даже вживую.
Tim Buckley was more talented but Jeff seemed a nicer person which is more important.
Someone fix this with AI please!
Yeah Tim is better. Which I think really annoyed Jeff
They were just different ~No One had the voice that Tim Buckley had. Even Jeff. But Jeff's was as pure and beautiful. Tim has a deep warm resonance that expressed itself differently in Jeff. I was in a position to often hear Tim sing ,live. The first song I ever heard him sing was the Tennessee Waltz playing solo guitar, and it was the most heart breakingly beautiful thing I think I had ever heard,.
