Lyrics:
There is a child sleeping near his twin
The pictures go wild in a rush of wind
That dark angel he is shuffling in
Watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled
The love you lost with her skin so fair
Is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
Her green eyes bloom goodbyes
With her head in her hands and your kiss on the lips of another
Dream brother with your tears scattered round the world
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came, nobody ever came
I feel afraid and I call your name
I love your voice and your dance insane
I hear your words and I know your pain
Your head in your hands and a kiss on the lips of another
Your eyes to the ground and the world spinning round forever
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

I hate that I will never have the privilege of seeing this man perform live...
Katie me too damn shame!!!!!!!!😹🦋
am always crying when i sing his songs he is a pure mentor i love him a lot. RIP JEFF
@@alisalam4322 definitely true gone way toooo soooon take care lol 👍🇺🇸💯👌☮️
can't watch anyone perform now
hatred is so close to love...;))
I discovered Jeff Buckley today, the world seems different now..
wow same... Me too, some months ago
Check Conor Mason :)
Yawn
Yet it will never be the same without him
@@nihilist6008now now nihilist.
Everybody is talking about what a legend Jeff is but can we also talk about his band? I mean, these guys played their souls out! Amazing musicians for an incredible genius 🖤
FIne musicians, but stiff as boards. If they were in tune with Jeff they wouldn't have to keep looking at him.
Daniel Laurent he doesn’t want any ponsy posers bobbing around on stage , they’re perfect backing for him
Yawn
@@daniellaurent11 good bands still have to listen to and watch their band mates to pick up cues and stay in time
@@daniellaurent11 You don't really know what u are saying
Jeff Buckley's voice is so strong and textured, brimming with vibrato and emotion. He transitions from aggression, to chaotic, to a whispering vulnerability in a matter of seconds. How dynamic his falsetto goes is ridiculous. And he makes it look so effortless.
Beautifully expressed in words ,thank you Martin .
I was at this show. He was amazing, very intense.
wow I always fantasized being there, you are blessed to have been there !
Something about the great ones? They seem to disappear to early!
what was he like?? i wish i could have been at a show of his
Omg, you are so lucky!!!
Wow Laura, how wonderful for you to have experienced this/him! I can imagine at this point in time he wasn’t too well known and fairly up and coming?
Saw him/met him 3 times in MA, Boston, he bought me a Heineken and chatted. He swapped hats with my girlfriend. I was devastated when he died.
what was he like?
You better of than guy that wants to make a movie.
Oh man, I wish I lived in one of the many alternate universes wherein Jeff is still alive and has given us music all these years.
Sings with great feelings, RIP Jeff
Zedd is releasing a new song with him
u can literally see his soul melting into the music
This song is about his dad, his dream brother. Powerful
@@albuxtoni It's actually written about His old friend that was cheating on his Pregnant Girlfriend, "Don't be like the one who left behind his name, Cause they're waiting for you, like I waited for mine, And Nobody ever came"- This is referring to His Upbringing of Course but he's asking the Person to not be Like His Father. The "You're Just Like Him" Lines hit hard because they aren't on the Studio Version.
@@jyejye1077 that's really interesting to learn, thank you. I got my interpretation from the Dream Brother book, which mentions it and the link with Tim. But I can see in the lyric it points to someone else as well, didn't know who though. Cheers
the fact that he wrote this song for his friend to prevent him leaving his pregnant girlfriend like Jeff's father did 💔
The crowd probably didn't realize that at that monent they were the most fortunate people on earth to see this performance.. damn, soooo impressive.. amazing.. song writing to the max.
Actually, it's funny you say that - because we really DID. I suspect most there did...I was at the show with some close friends and we all worshipped Jeff, and after the show we all sat downstairs in Smart Bar in one of the booths, with the owner of the club, talking about how epic and special it was and how once in a lifetime it was, that we'd not seen anything before like that and might not again. I recall it clearly. We knew....
I ask to myself:is it an answer to dream letter of Tim Buckley?
@@azzougannie5763 i think its an answer to i never asked to be your mountain
@@eroewade Im glad you recognised it
We went to his show in Rotterdam in 1995. The buzz was so intense. I remember we spent the rest of the night just trying to come down an incredible high.
This performance beats the studio version. His voice, his eyes, his hole face expressing, also every band member on point.
100%! This version destroys the studio version.
Jeff had -and still has - the power to turn listeners into poets and mystics.
Wow, what an appreciation! I recognize that, although more than 'turning in' it brings my poetry and mystics the foreground...
Him and Tim buckley and the doors. Are the only songs that I can sing along too and actually feel something. Weather it be an illusion that I can actually sing. Or the fact their songs are so easy to sing along to. But still sound so cool. Idk. They have alot of power
This is proof of the synchronization Jeff had with his band. If he wanted to improvise, they did so with him ever so fluidly. This is musical poetry. Jeff, why did you have to die so young? Better yet, why couldn’t you have been born in the ‘90s and lived to be a marvelous musical icon in this day and age? I hope one day once my health clears up, that I can do you justice and get some covers of your songs out.
strongly considered becoming a clone of him ngl
@@jaydeefromthedmv7046 there's definitely far worse musical aspirations to choose from! One could always start out as a "clone" but use that as a springboard to doing one's own stuff. In my opinion , there's a lot that someone would learn from studying Jeff's brilliance at the deep level that covering his material would require which would be translatable to many other aspects of musicianship such as singing, playing, writing, performing, and the big one- improvising.
very deep, dark, sad but amazing..voice of an angel. amazing singer
psy blast yes yes and yes
No way it's one of the greatest songs in history
The reverb explosion at 3:46 is possibly the coolest i've ever heard.
years thinking the same thing, showing it to my musician friends, an epic moment.
It's fucking awesome hey
the arrangement is just insane
this arrangement on earth
Its a great arrangement
That scream at roughly 7 minutes is the most beautiful, heartbreaking, happy-sad thing I've ever heard
That's qawwali an indian sufi style of musique
Pakistani music, actually
Jeffs father named a album happy sad maybe u should check it out
Same man
Buckley flings his voice wild abandonment, teetering on chaotic breakdown, as if he almost looses control of it, but he's so well practiced, he still remains in control. I don't know many musicians that can reach that kind of intensity, he draws you into his deep pain and turmoil like a ship directed sucked into a maelstrom.
The best male voice in the history of music.
ex92 what about mike patton? Maynard james keenan? Rob halford? Chris cornell? Matt bellamy?
Although Buckley is my personal favorite, I think even he would agree he isn't the best "technically" speaking. Heck, his father was even a more trained vocalist, but what makes Jeff so unique is the emotion he conveys in his voice. That's what in my opinion makes his voice untouchable!
Freddie, Bonnett and Orbison are all better rock singers. Jeff has a beautiful, haunting voice.
None of those guys come even a zillion light years close
There are many great voices, but they're all great for different types of music. Jeff is the best for this kind of music.
I lost my father when I was 12, my brother was 5 then and he waited for him to come back for months before he can realize the truth. This song is so painfully beautiful for me... Those words so impossible to sing without crying. I scream, and I cry, and I realize that life is wonderful even in the deepest pain, thanks to art. Thanks to Jeff.
Beautiful words 😘
My condolences for your father's death
RIP to your father, emicasia.
I really felt your words brother...
Yawn
You know its crazy when I think back to the mid 90's I was in my early 20's and listened to Jeff Buckley, thought he was amazing and just assumed that the world would be filled with such artists in the future......how wrong was I ??????!!!!!!!!! Turns out we'll never hear the like of him again.....
You should give a try to Tamino's song
We still had a bunch though. Early Muse, Radiohead, maybe Leprous vocalist, etc...
Marion Yup I just found Tamino on TH-cam, he’s like the lost dream brother who came out many years after Jeff passed away.
I know !!!!!!
Oh God, that’s the way I used to think as a kid and teen. It really has taken me years and years to kinda accept the crave for mediocrity and fast profit over any form of greatness of the world. I wish I found someone who understand me way before in my life.
Tamino is decent. I would not put him near the same stratosphere that Jeff hailed from.
not many singers can pull sounding that good live, especially on something like this tune.
Or even sound in tune
Heck it's even better than the original cos of the added crescendo part by the bridge
His vocal harmonies kinda got monotonous and annoying after a while during this song.
@@eldiablo3794not at all
Yeah J Lo eye 👀
A real life angel ❤❤
Quite possibly the greatest song ever written.
Grace is my favorite.
Yep and grace and what will u say
Not sure you're wrong
This is the best version of this song. His vocals and his playing are just insane. He goes from falsetto to head voice to his beautiful tenor only making it obvious when it suits the music. The other great versions of this song lack the energy, feeling and precision of this version, plus it's an almost immaculate recording.
When the crowd starts clapping and Jeff tunes his guitar and gives a small nod to his band mates... the song is not over and the way they pick it up from there...pure genius.
jesus, how about that intro! damn son
Clear influence of his visit to Pakistan, hindustani classical music has a style of entering into their ragas/compositions, it's called an alaap, look it up, i'm sure you'll love it. :)
Medha Singh true he loved Pakistani music and collaborated with Qawali artists.. there is a qawali version he did of what will you say .. Buckley was a pioneer when it came into mixing middle eastern melodies with rock ..
Medha Singh I believe that. That's probably why jimmy page thought so much of him too. Similar influences.
The intro wasn't actually created by Jeff Buckley. I can't quite remember but it was either the bassist or the guitarist and Jeff loved it.
Oh yeah and the actual unique intro is cool as well lol
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came
These lines always gets me .
plotonisradd you know he's talking bout his daddy?
Yep
Looks like Jeff had a friend.
This friend was going to have kids, but he wanted to run away, since they were only dating.
So Jeff wrote this.
"Hey friend, don't be like the one who made me so old (father)
Don't be like the one who left his name (father)
Cause they (friends kids) are waiting for you (friend)
Like I waited for mine (dad)
And nobody ever came"
Also, at live he says more things before the long guitar solo
"You are just like her
Why do you meet the one I love
And smell the one who loves you?"
Its like:
"You are just like her (friend girlfriend)
Why do you (friend) meet the one I love (looks like my father)
And smells the ones who loves you? (and smel/looks like your girlfriend)"
Correction: “You are just like *him* (Jeff’s dad, Tim).
*Spare, not smell
It reminds me of a young boy waiting outside for his father to pick him up for his court-appointed visit and nobody ever came. :.( 💔
t’s a song about a friend of mine, who’s led a rather excessive life… He is in trouble. This song is for him. I know what self-destruction can lead to, and I have tried to warn him. But I am one big hypocrite because when I called him up and told him about the song I’d written, that same night I took an overdose of hash and woke up the next day feeling terrible. It is very hard not to give in to one’s negative feelings. Life is total chaos.” - Jeff Buckley
Laura, whatever happened, I appreciate your honesty xxxx
+Ellen Jennings those were jeff buckleys words on why this song was made
+Kristiana Wilson I understand now. I was in a pretty wild place myself when I wrote this comment and reading it again, I realise you were quoting Jeff's lyrics. I miss his talent every day
Ellen Jennings same! ❤
the first verse paints such a haunting picture. Almost spooky lol. It’s shakespearean and edgar allen poe -ish. He wrote amazing songs. What was so awesome about him is that he was really great in all of the three things he preformed and did really. Beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics and so great at guitar. I mean how many times can I just go “ wow “ when I listen to him??
Shivers caused by an otherworldly voice that taps into some universal force only available to a rare few.
amen
25 years gone. RIP Jeff. Much missed.
Unreal. Amazing. No one like Jeff Buckley on the planet.
that's because he's dead
Anton True Klüver only people who don't know music frees them and that life is endless are dead.
no one like him, no one like you, no one like me, no one like no one. so simple.
Oh it's real. It's SO rEEEAAAL!
How did he fix that high E string so fast??? Like he didn't even try to tune it, he just heard it flat and gave it a half turn and got back on key.
That's just jefff
was a pro guitar
It makes me so sad to listen to the beauty of this song and hear the lyrics somewhat predict his death.... gives me the shivers. I wish I could have seen him perform live, he's the most incredible musician and vocalist I've ever heard.
+Amy Goodwin Took the words right out of my mouth, I would have given anything to see him perform, he just has something about him, I wouldn't think it's possible to miss someone without knowing them but that's how I feel about him
yeoaura - I agree, when he'd sing a song, he was the song, and even though he's dead, his songs are still alive. I would've loved to hear him sing his songs in person... But sadly I wasn't even born before he died :(
so which are the lines where he states the future?
Amy Goodwin for me Jeff is up there with the best I have ever heard. Although totally different genres I have always thought of Jeff in the same way as Layne Staley. They didn't sing a song, they conveyed a story and not many artists have the ability to that. Grace is and will always be One the greatest albums ever made.
Amy Goodwin this song definitely isnt predicting his death
Oh that bass tone is sublime!
It's delicious. All the musicians are on point here.
This song burned my soul, I wasn't able to write for a long time which I used to do a lot, and the suddenly this song burned my soul, everything that I unconsciously held up in me came forward like a flaming lightning of words. Oh god, it is amazing that we are human beings...
katılıyorum kardeşim
+Çağlar Polat I really discovered this song in Istanbul where I was for few days -- it's amazing.
I hear the voice of God in this fiery performance of Dream Brother. R I P you beautiful over sexed angel.
I thought at first you meant that after you heard this song..it's words..you said.."why bother writing"..like when I first heard Hendrix and I put down my guitar..but I think what you meant was it ignited the dormant flame
This might be the most pretentious comment in youtube history
He was simply too good for this world.
You can see the inspiration for Muse and other later artists too but none could sing like the original dream brother. Simply beautiful song, it's almost painful but so beautiful.., ah such a shame Jeff left this world way too soon,, who knows the songs he had to come ?
Matt has mentioned that Jeff was an inspiration.
The singer from good tiger (Elliot Coleman) reminds me a lot of jeff Buckley.
Blueskythinking When he was in Tesseract for a short time they recorded a cover of this song. You might wanna check it out
thom yorke said he went home and cried after seeing Jeff live. love how all these amazing artists inspire each other.
Ian Snowden b
Ok. Are we not going to say anything about how amazing this drummer is? The whole band is fucking tight! 👌🏼
This song was an ode to his Father...
1.Scream the lyrics at the top of your lungs
2.Realize you don't have Jeff's vocal skills, and get depressed
3.Continue anyway
4.???
5.Profit
If I am not mistaken the scream at 6th minute is a chest mix to reach that D5. Not an easy thing to do and you need a great pair of pipes and very well trained voice. :)
Voracious Reader well said, he simply wasn’t afraid to take risks with his vocals and he seemingly always made it work.
@@MrRafa1919 you are totally right 🤘🏼
Voracious Reader elastic vocal chords, eh? Wonder if the rest of him was very elastic... like me. I’m the real life equivalent of the mom from the Incredibles. lol
This is such a mind blowing rendition of one his best songs....I would give anything to be able to go back in time and experience this.
His voice cracks as he says "and nobody ever came". Thinking of his dad i bet. 🥺💔
Intoxicating performance. Jeff able to harness a tender fury like no-one I've ever heard. 03:44 sounding like a lightening bolt. Dark, sexy, ethereal, rousing, sublime. xx
I shiver so much when I watch this concert that I must put on a coat even if it's summer. Pure genius.
I am usually crying.
So much feelings man.
them lucky mother fuckers who had the chance to see him live...... sigh RIP Jeff
Zeid Al Kilani for real. Not something you'd take for granted.
I would sell my fucking soul to satan to see him live!!!!!!
Haha Well Said Brother
The greatest male vocalist ever.
"Asleep in the sand, with the ocean washing over" ...now you have passed Vicky, we love you more than we ever did X
this vocalizing at the beginning... Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. I know Jeff loved him very much... my god...
3:44 HELL YEAH!!
goose bumps shit
Gives me goosebumps every. damn. Time.
*Dream Brother*
There is a child sleeping near his twin
The pictures go wild in a rush of wind
That dark angel he is shuffling in
Watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled
The love you lost with her skin so fair
Is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
Her green eyes blew goodbyes
With her head in her hands
and your kiss on the lips of another
Dream Brother with your tears scattered round the world.
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came...
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came...
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
Nobody ever came
Nobody ever...
I feel afraid and I call your name
I love your voice and your dance insane
I hear your words and I know your pain
With your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another
Your eyes to the ground and the world spinning round forever
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
Ah do you meet the one I love
and smell the one who loves you
Dream brother, dream brother, dream, dream
dream asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
@@nikamini6 Not quite. It's definitely spare and not smell/spear haha
Feeling his brothers grief and pain manifested.
@@ronaldpetrin5823 He was an only child.
@@JasonUmbrellabird no he wasn't. His mother had another son, Jeff's little brother, Corey Moorehead.
@@mave143 ok thanks.
the guy with badmotorfinger t shirt at 2:59! lovely 90's stuff
good catch!
That was a kickass album
A once in a lifetime talent .I say with the utmost confidence that we will never see another Jeff B in our lifetime again
he changed everything in music's industry. this man sounds like a syren honestly
Listening on mushrooms 🍄
Amazing. I’ve listened 2-3 times
At max volume
That scream on the climax was absolute perfection.
Pain can make the best artist
The break at 3:40 makes me unconcious. It’s so damn good and the feeling he delivers in the refrain. I’m blown away
I fell in LOVE with him on FIRST listen, then.....
found out he was dead!! :((((( still hurts when I think of it.......
this is one of my favourite live performances of all time
they all played so well together...the drummer was so unique in his style...the bassist is always there, coming up with something inventive and complimenting to the guitar...such a special group x
Jeff is one of the greatest, but the hole band... You rarely see something like this
man you can just feel that he goes to another place when playing music
everything about this is perfect but that tension in the first verse is on just another world
How he starts it, is amazing
I'd never had any interest in rock until in 94/5 I listened to Grace on the radio in Germany. I rushed to the music store & my deep obsession with Jeff Buckley & guitar began. Thanks Jeff RIP.
Please tell me that other people know about this man's father... Tim Buckley
He is just as enchanting, please have a listen
Happy birthday Jeff.
I listened to Grace last week. Amazing album throughout but it wasn’t perfect. Dream Brother is perfect. It stayed with me. Quite possibly one of the most beautiful music ever made.
I grew up in Memphis. The first time I heard Jeff was at local musician, Nick Redmond's apartment in Midtown Memphis. It was a block away from Jeff's North Rembert house. I'll always remember that night. It was like a scene out of a stoner coming of age movie. ...and this was the first song Nick played.
His voice is haunting its sticks to you and lingers its so beautiful
Nothing compares
I also realize that this will be one of the best musicians of the 90’s
good things don't last forever
RIP Jeff B. many of us will remember you
Happy birthday, Jeff, I love you, brother from my dreams
When I hear people refer to the crap out today as genius, I get extremely annoyed. BUCKLEY was a special talent. No fear. Power. Melody. Gentleness. No words adequately describe. Why can’t we promote artists like this???
I was just thinking about this. Nothing out today comes close to this. It seems there’s hardly ever intricate songwriting in a song now
It's easier to make quick money writing a basic song with a clever line or two and a repeatable hook. It's always been that way. Masters of any craft are rarely understood except by those who practice the art, and their tastes for experimentation and challenging the consumer are inherently unpopular.
Dream Jeff... dream.
What a treasure the music lost! 💔
Pure Perfection
Gosh...Some parts of Jeff's singing are worth other artists' whole repertoire.
He is so amazing I' ll never be able to do him justice with any words of praise I may come up with.
Otherworldly. Maybe, you were too much for this planet...
just warming his voice chords till 2:00 and it's already a dream
he really was...otherworldly. I think some of the greatest musicians are. the really special ones can’t be here long I guess
I watch every live perfomance because they are unique. What a genius we have missed :c
Talk about flawless performance imo
The world is now just about ready to appreciate this music
Of course those of you who’ve been here for nearly 20 years kudos to you
I think you are right…
He inspires me
It´s not a song, even a performance: it's a statment!
Absolutely mesmerising performance from start to finish
Twenty years have You been in Heaven, Beloved Dream Brother. May 29th 2017. I hope to meet You soon. Until then, i have Your Music. Thank You.
Jesus, it's almost 20 years.
Jesus died almost *2000* years ago.
ive had the grace cd on repeat in my car but everytime it came to this song i would skip until one day i decided to keep it on, and i was hooked as soon as i heard the chorus😍😍😍 live is even better! thank you jeff for the amazing music you gave to this world!!!!!
pris I did that with Corpus Christi carol too
love every song of jeffs, even his country ones
pris I love this performance of Dream Brother
Listened to Jeff and suddenly found myself listening to Nusrat then Nina then Led Zeppelin. A genius without even knowing me.
the bass lone in this song is absolutely enchanting
I don't know what to say, his voice is too good to be true,
Jeff Buckley was too much for this world.
What a beautiful mystical spirit he was ❤
beautiful... love Jeff Buckely such a talent.
+alicia mcmillan lol.. He has a bunch of likes by JEFFS music videos... lol. so guess who's the slow one. not you!! haha
+alicia mcmillan I think Will the brilliant genius doesn't realise that 'talent' can be a noun used to describe an extremely talented individual as well as an adjective so he was just trying to be all clever by correcting your English … probably time to delete your stupidity Will because you look idiotic and mean and petty :D
+John Arundell Thanks for bringing the attention back to Jeff and his "Talent" and NOT making the focuss on this unpleasent person lol
alicia mcmillan I love the way you Always delete your dimwitted comments after I tell you something, I speak my mind like you do,but I don't go coward and delete my original posts, why would I post something to someone who isn't there? YOU DON I T ALL THE TIME... and to be a "True " fan to Jeff Buckley ..lol. who ALSO SPOKE HIS MIND AND STOOD BY IT,NEVER BEING A FAKE FLAKY ASS PERSON, FYI he wouldn't have liked you.
alicia mcmillan you disgust me.. like he said to a chick in the crowd... STFU. or stand by your word to begin with. Don't be a coward, cowards are "unpleasant "!
I think he's incredibly fantastic! His voice and words come to his heart as a windy, scratchy wind on his face, with no brakes or discounts. GREAT
