    When I compare artists. I never mention Jeff Buckley. Simply because I keep his music in it's own realm away from the rest of the musicians. He made music for the very soul.

    Some weeks ago i dreamt about a guy drowning and dissapearing in front of me while I was in the beach, having warning him about the crazy waves thst were coming. I woke up really sad and moved about it.
    Few hours later, TH-cam recommended me a concert of Jeff Buckley, who i never listened to before. I started to cry hard because of his delivery and soulful songs. Then, to my surprise, I found a video about his death. I was really really shocked. Since then, he had such a profound impact on me. I cry everytime I think about him... I feel like I lost a loved one. Sometimes I like to think that he reached out to me in my dreams for a reason.

    Ghost comes to visit with my keys in his pocket
    Kisses on my mouth with his eyes rolling out of the socket
    Memories crumbling under solid steel resistance
    I was torn out like pages from The Book of Existence
    I woke up in a strange place
    My mind a blur and some blood on my chin
    I made a call for that Black Death cab
    My destination is moving on in
    And I remember words you told me
    Came down so hard, so plain
    Fate is gonna find you, Love,
    In your glass of champagne
    Love came calling as a counterfeit mistress
    Stealing from the pockets of her sadomasochist
    Mouthing false praise like a tongue on crystal meth
    Cigarette smelled like the fear inside my chest
    Yes and I lied to my host that I knew how far I could go
    When I emptied my guts out on his brand new stereo
    He paid me to go on upstairs and spend the night with his friend
    I never want to see my face in the mirror again
    I woke up in a strange place
    Music so loud I spit up my beer
    I took a ride down in that Black Death cab
    My destination is already here
    Easy now, car is speeding up
    For my last chance crash into freedom
    Fate is going to find you, Love,
    In your glass of champagne
    Sweat pours down, I'm in the back seat sleeping
    She watches from her empty bed, out the window, weeping
    Ghost guns that motor to the land that he promised me
    Drawbridge abandoned and the mother needs nowhere
    This is a song for you, Dislocated,
    You're born to love, but it turned to be hated
    Because the lies of the spirit possessed you
    Because the eyes of your lover resist you
    Listen up, boy, I'm shouting from the bottom
    Of a barrel, heading down the rapids, yeah
    Steady now, keep your aim solid
    As your temple turns to kiss the pistol
    Fate is going to find you, My Love,
    In your glass of champagne
    Fate is going to find you, Love,
    In your glass of champagne
    Fate is going to find you, Love,
    In your glass of champagne

    I discovered Jeff only 8 months ago and since then I have been completely bethrothed and devoted to his music like I never have experienced before. This is one of his songs that speaks to my heart and soul. Its so excruciating and unbelievable that he is actually gone and it breaks me every day, and it will riddle me to the end of time. He is the definition of being completely timeless: his poetry, his skills, his voice, his beauty, his everything! My heart and soul and the bane of my inspiration (as he is to many, many others). I am so glad to be apart of this community! We will never, ever forget you Jeff.

      Add me to this list. I just discovered him earlier this year, became quickly obsessed, and he is becoming one of my favorite artists of all time. I have never had this kind of visceral reaction to anyones music like this before.
      I lost my mother in February and without Jeff, I really don't know how I would have made it through the excruciating sadness and sorrow.
      His music is so full of passion, fire, soul, inspiration, deep truth, and great beauty. It has affected me deeply, set my soul ablaze, and healed my heart from great loss. I found myself when I found him.
      There are not enough words to express what he and his music mean to me.
      His death was a tragedy and a great loss for music as well as humanity.
      Thank you Jeff, Its never over.

I jank it out on my guitar as good as I can, I'm atheist, but I hope and imagine he somehow could hear it and feel a little proud.

      I wonder too. This and Moodswing Whiskey are the best tracks outside of Grace. He never properly recorded either and who knows why. Both are windows into the mind of someone dealing with demons and deep regrets. Would have fit perfectly together as part of an album named My Sweetheart The Drunk. Imagine them finished alongside songs like "We Could Be So Happy" and "Demon John". Might have been a great piece of art.

    • @monsieurmitosis
      @monsieurmitosis 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I really feel like this had to be the reason. His mother specifically was at pains to emphasise that everything that did make it to Sketches was unfinished. It boggles the mind to imagine how amazing that album would have been if he'd had the opportunity to develop the songs in the way they were on Grace. Have you heard the early versions of Mojo Pin and Grace? Absolutely different arrangements and performances. Having said that, I think the quality of this live version is up to the Sketches standard, it's such a cool tune. And his guitar playing has always been under-rated, he really had complete control of that motherfucker.

These two songs are so big for me, I really don't really pay much attention to lyrics/stories in a song, but damn these paint such images with such amazing words. and also Moodswing Whiskey with that weird drum rhythm that kicks in. I've learned this song on guitar by ear. There's a lot of bad things that have happened in the world, but he's my Elvis and it's such a loss to never get to hear what he could have made with such a bottomless talent.
      I've found a lot of the totally fearless rawness in Justin Vernon and Sufjan Stevens, there's tons of virtouosos like Jacob Collier. Closest in my little lifespan is perhaps Thom Yorke that absolutely spews out quality still with The Smile now recently, but no JB.

      You may be able to figure it out with Bm7 / Em / Em7 / D / F#m, but if you Google the song and go to images, you'll see manuscripts for it.
      For the chorus it's F#m to Em (like "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield!)

    So Jeff kissed men, too, huh? I wonder who the "ghost" is and if he's the same as the guy with the stereo. Lyrics:
    Ghost comes to visit with my keys in his pocket
    Kisses on my mouth with his eyes rolling out of the sockets
    Memories crumbling under solid steel resistance
    I was torn out like pages from the book of existence
    I woke up in a strange place
    My mind a blur and some blood on my chin
    I made a call for that black death cab
    My destination is moving on in
    And I remember words you told me
    Came down so hard, so plain
    Fate is gonna find you, love
    In your glass of champagne
    Love came calling as a counterfeit mistress
    Stealing from the pockets of her sadomasochist
    My ???? plays like a tongue on crystal meth
    Cigarette smelled like the fear inside my chest
    Yes, and I lied to my host that I knew how far I could go
    When I emptied my guts out on his brand new stereo
    He paid me to go upstairs to spend the night with his friend
    I never want to see my face in the mirror again
    I woke up in a strange place
    Music so loud I spilled all my beer
    I took a ride down in that black death cab
    My destination is already here
    Easy now
    Car is speeding up
    For my last chance crash into freedom
    Fate is going to find you, love
    In your glass of champagne
    Sweat pours down
    I'm in the back seat
    Sleeping
    She watches from her empty bed
    Out the window
    Weeping
    Ghost guns that motor to the land that he promised me
    ??? abandon and the ???? needs nowhere
    This is a song for you, dislocated
    You were going to love, but it turned to being hated
    Because the lies of the spirit possessed you
    Because the eyes of your lover resist you
    Listen up, boy
    I'm shouting from the bottom of a barrel
    Heading down the rapids, yeah
    Steady now, keep your aim solid
    As your temple turns to kiss the pistol
    Fate is going to find you, my love
    In your glass of champagne

      I think he said “mouthing froth splays like a tongue on crystal meth” and “drawbridge abandoned and the road leads nowhere”

      I think the "ghost" is a metaphor for a drug of some sort. The one that left him waking up in a strange place.

      Could it be "mouthing false prayers like a tongue on crystal meth"?

      Or maybe even "moulding false prayers"

    did he write this or is it a cover?

      Pretty sure it's an original, I even thought Everybody Here Wants you was a Prince song because I must have read about the "style" and I don't listen to Prince and then I randomly googled and couldn't find the original.
      JB was amazing with words, chords and composition.
