Lyrics:
Love, let me sleep tonight on you couch
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress
Oh... that was so real
We walked around til the moon got full like a plate
The wind blew an invocation and i fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause i thought i'd hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under
Oh... that was so real
I love you, but i'm afraid to love you
I love you, but i'm afraid to love you
"I love you, but I'm afraid to love you" chills
I still tremble every time I hear it.
@@alexiadelarge280 I completely agree! What a loss and tragedy the way he passed.
@@alexiadelarge280
I've never heard anyone say "I love you" like that.
Omg.
Then to add, "But I'm afraid to love you,"
👄
He just oozed sexuality and sensuality with every pore. He had this like angelic aura about him that made it feel as though he was not of this earth.
Patti Brown yes! Oh my god,The way he says that is almost to sexy to handle....
Jeff Buckley smiling is the greatest thing I've ever seen.
Have you ever hear him laugh? Its water for a thirsty soul
😍😋
So true. Love him
Oml he looks so good and the end when he’s playing the guitar belting it out and all sweaty 🥵
He had a beautiful smile! A smile is far sexier than brooding in my opinion.
I’m a straight man but the way Jeff says I love you convinces me otherwise. I love you too Jeff.
ahah too good. Yeah man he is a lover to my ears as well lol
he's too good he makes straight dude feels gay
So real
❤️
Grace is still the best album I have ever heard of any genre now more than 20 years later.
👍
JC POPPA FRESH Of course it's his or her opinion. When someone says something like that they are always speaking for themselves. Who do you want them to speak for? Music critics? My father? Buda? God?
It's my opinion too. Graces is absolutely stunning. And so is Sketches for MSTD.
It's David Bowie's favourite album too, by the way.
I feel exactly the same
1-dark side of the moon
2-ok computer
3-grace
90's highlights:
- Loveless (1991)
- Grace (1994)
- OK Computer (1997)
That's why many people hates the 90's, because the music that they knew (grunge/britpop) wasn't the best of these years. Loveless was shoegaze, Grace was some singer/songwriter and alternative own sound, and OK Computer.. idk, another planet maybe?
It's so weird that there's a line "I couldn't awake from the nightmare that pulled me in and sucked me under"...he has so many lines in his songs that relate to how he died...a magic human for sure.
👀was waiting for this comment. I agree. It eerily haunted him and yet its haunting.
It was said that he really did have a lot of nightmares about his death
You have a very interesting Point there. I often think about that too ❤
this is honestly a bit disrespectful but yeah whatever
Disrespectful... Lol
God this song is so sexy, but makes you wanna cry, makes you feel existential, makes you feel cool, it makes you feel so many ways. Unbelievable
Yes! Perfectly put.
So True......
@@jarackObidenso real, even.
Yes
Yes
Just discovered Jeff today. Listened to this song and after it ended I sat paralyzed for a solid 5 minutes. My mind just couldn't process the experience. Unreal.
Kilfaxi Glad of u kid.. Now feel the sentiment of people born in the 80's while listening to today's music
Jeff speaks for all of us. He joins our intrinsic nature, for those who know how to listen. He was so real and yet the most apt comment, rightly said, is 'unreal'.
Alex So true!
Kilfaxi me too
Kilfaxi listen to it while you're drinking wine and I'll tell ya- you will notice that you hear different chords too.
i must have played this song about 400 times when i played it with headphones snd i felt totally thrown out of my mind hahs.
Best, most satisfying chord progression ever
Here's some music theory on why, or at least what I could make out, but I'm just gonna talk about what you would call the verse riff. The reason it sounds so good is because of one simple reason: we have a tritone, however it sounds more dissanent than usual because its an octave up, and then that A# move up to a B which turns that triton into a perfect fourth. Im not that great a theory so thats really all I could make of this song. Enjoy!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes here too!!!!!!
My gf introduced me to him yesterday and when I asked if he was touring she told me he was dead and I was in absolute shock. I thought this song was actually from today. This song is waaay ahead of its time and I was very sad to hear how he died by drowning. This song just blows me away and makes me feel like I am actually floating away from myself into another dimension.
I've had his only real finished album Grace for awhile on CD. Its so good that I highly recommend buying it if you have the money it is worth it for what your about to experience
I was also devastated to figure out he was dead after hearing Hallelujah for the first time. And this one makes me feel exactly as you described.
Some of his live performances are almost shamanic, & he drags you into whatever trance he’s entering. You should check out the live versions of Lover, You Should’ve Come Over and Lilac Wine.
@@wayneross1200 dumb response, if you have nothing constructive to say shut the hell up
Time means nothing
He was so beautiful.
Very much so.
@@funnyapple8389 Was. He is gone- no longer with us. Just here in music, find memories and video.
@@funnyapple8389Just a response to a previous comment, not a point of contention. Was, is ; it's all subjective and not that deep. Have a great day!
@@funnyapple8389 something that ceases to exist cannot still be in the present. "Is" would imply that it is here, existing now. "Was" implies that when it existed, it was something until it ceased to exist.
@@funnyapple8389 He's no longer here, you silly.
Damn, his voice is too much. I can't even deal with it. He's bringing out emotions I didn't even know I had. What an artist.
Just like Jay Z, Eminem and Kanye 😅
@@JUNIPER21126 LOL
@@JUNIPER21126Yeah, shame on them for producing music in a different genre. Snob.
@@jackieboy3968 RAP IS CRAP. IT'S NOT MUSIC. NOW JAZZ, FUNK AND R&B .... THAT'S MUSIC. IT'S DEPRESSING THAT PEOPLE WITH NO TALENT ARE BILLIONARES AND TALENTED MUSICIANS AND SONGWRITERS DIE POOR.
Imagine what this guy could've made like 5 years into his career. This was his debut and it sounds better than most peoples 3rd or 4th album.
Miss him.
I guess We all do
@@punjitv8638 Miss him? I can't believe he even existed in the first place... How the fuck does ANYONE do what he did in music??? He seemed like a angel from heaven or something.
Yeah, many people do. Guess the good die young
OMG ME TOO
❤️
"I love you, but I'm afraid to love you" that's one of the deepest lines ever written and preformed. You guys ever wonder if his best was yet to come? RIP Jeff.
I used to think about this a lot (what would I create if I were still alive or had lived longer) but now I think some people know that they may not be here for long and do the best they can with what they already have and Jeff is one of these people. Even his songs that were not officially released are better than a lot of music that has super production. So, Grace is a masterpiece of masterpieces, lets enjoy it!
Definitely.
Yupp its called "sketches for my sweetheart the drunk" I believe it's better at points then Grace
No
i don't think so, it was already so real.
the greatest singer of all time. there's a reason why Robert Plant & Jimmy Page were in awe of this guy
Except for Roy Orbison which is a huge honour
Sounds like lead guitarist Gary Tighe was influenced by JIMMY PAGE.
The way he says "I love you" gets me every time😩
Brian wilson
Really powerful song...His vocal range and power is just captivating
One of the best.
Far too pure for this world.
It's sad that he passed away so young he seemed really down to earth & was super talented I would've love to have heard more music from him & I think this generation could've really used his music.
I knew him. Same class at Loara High School. He was all those things, ad more....Way more. He is missed.
most of talented and great musician die young. so sad.
derambe wauw 🤩 you are lucky🙏🏻
A spirit that passed through earth and that left us something from another realm
His music lives on :)
Damn this song literally just took my breath away, the amount of raw emotion this song carries is ridiculous.
100%
+CarltheGiraffe He was a poet first, musician second.
remember to breathe. So real carl the giraffe.
I am in love with Jeff Buckley.
He’s afraid you love him
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The world was robbed of this man way too early. As selfish as this may sound; just imagine all the beautiful music he would have gifted us for all these years. Jeff Buckley, truly unique and missed.
You can tell by listenning to bands like Radiohead, Coldplay and Muse that they were highly influenced by this legend
Radiohead?
@@indowithbadenglish5677 listen to Fake Plastic Trees
indo with bad english thom Yorke has sited direct influence from jeffs falsetto, listen to mojo pin and you’ll understand
Thats true. Jeff Buckley somehow popularized the falsetto register in modern rock music. With indeed bands like Radiohead, Muse and Coldplay as evidence. All three the vocalists stated that Jeff influenced their vocal traits.
And Chriss Cornell
This album is flat out incredible. He was a tremendous talent. My generation has lost too many...way too young.
The first time I heard this song was in the late '90's. I was in a band, and we were driving back home after a show. It was 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning, and I was asleep in the back of the van when this song came on the radio. I must have waken up, but I wasn't sure, because this song sounded like the music I heard in my dreams, moody and surreal, dark and beautiful, and I felt in that instant like I had been somehow listening to this song my whole life. I bought the album the next day, and even now, almost 20 years later nothing touches me more deeply than Jeff Buckley's music and I keep finding new things to appreciate about it.
Kevin Young me too
Me too. My memory of this at the time it came out was working night shift, driving home at 2 in the morning and this playing on the radio... a perfect song for the small hours. Cruel by PIL is another
Perfect moment to listen that song for the first time
Wow :(.
Moments like that are so cool, it's wild how music can cement memories from the first time you heard a song
this is what a masterpiece sounds like
Wayne Ross Grace album is a masterpiece.
Wayne Ross dam straight.
Wayne Ross Master P sounds like when I spread my butt cheeks together and rip one now that's a masterpiece
jahone1211 It’s decent. Very overrated compared to Sketches To My Sweetheart The Drunk: I think that’s fantastic. Regardless, this is absolutely my favourite single of all time.
mabel The Buckleys are a masterpiece
Grace is undoubtedly one of the best albums in creation. I listened to Jeff growing up, but took him very lightly. Now so many years later, this albums affects me like it never has. He was not appreciated the way he should have been.
it's addictive listening to these song, Unfortunately, artist today have no inspiration and no talent for music🎶 Is this your favorite song from jeff?
@@derekkess6074are you deaf or something
This song is simply haunting. Once its in your brain, its not going anywhere
Steven Randall so true! That’s wha I love about it
Has been listening to it on repeat the last 48 hours 😂
So true
Haunting: keeps it with you the rest of your days.
3:27 that crescendo is 1 of my favorite parts of any song, ever!
YES He really knew how to end a song
Yess
It’s October 8, 2024. Just discovered this man. I may be deeply touched and broken by him. It will never be the same.
He was from my neighborhood here in OC. I still have the newspaper clipping from when he died. Destroyed my world at the time.
+coffycup75 What's OC?
+Eric Sierra-Franco Orange County, California.
Josie G I didn't know he was from California.
Eric Sierra-Franco Yep! He was from Anaheim and he moved to New York in the early 90s.
+coffycup75 Enchanté, madame!
Crazy how far this man’s influence spread. His vocal style is expressed so much in Thom Yorke’s singing and even the highs and lows of this song remind me of prog/post-punk bands like Slint
id imagine jeff buckley was influenced by slint
@@420fartyeah, this song is basically him trying to do a Slint song
@@archol6596Any source for that?
@@ArizonanSummer no, a wild guess, but it's in the same lane, same as his song kangaroo
Just found Jeff in 2017.... better late then never.
Ernesto Preciado its never to late to discover this angel.... 😢👼🏻💔
Regret not finding him earlier to show my Dad rip...
😢
Great tune. remembering in 95 going thru a bx, when I was in the USMC. Saw this cd looking for another. Thought nothing of it. in 95. then saw this song on a music channel a couple of years ago, j23 years later. ANd remembering seeing this cd and not thinking twice back in 95. WOnder how many others made that mistake. lol. Read this. Inspired by the title Grace. GOspel of Grace.
Romans 10;9 f you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. It is faith in the above scripture, or 1Corinthians 15 1-4; GOspel of Grace plus nothing. BY which we receive Gods` salvatio
I found him in 2020. Still better late than never
Just found him in 2023
Crazy, but Buckleys music makes you a better man...
+andre p Buckleys music makes the world a better place....
+alanah brady heal the world, make it better place bla bla bla...
+andre p So does the bible...LMAO...you are a fucking idiot. Only because it makes you emotional doesn't mean shit you pathetic human...go read a book about neoliberalism you nut hugger.
Agreed 1000% :D
You rock.
Jeff had the body of an 80 year old. His face was so handsome and angelic, his musical talent otherworldly, I see haunting parallels with his body and his death at a really young age.
This video is so prophetic by his own artistic admission but also his own physicality.
To me it’s as if he was a 31 year old trapped inside the body and soul of an 80 year old.
He was a really beautiful and rare gift with so much pain left by a father who barely acknowledged him, that ate Jeff up. I know someone who was quite close to him and his mother.
What is really sad, that in true fashion, his own country never embraced him, he had to go to France, New Zealand and Australia to be given the recognition he deserved. This is a man who should’ve had the world at his feet, instead he died broke, not because he lost all of his money but because he never had any to begin with. His music took him from one country to the next but that was it, it never afforded him a home and the good life that his talent deserved. He owned 1 guitar (his Telecaster) and wore the same beat up boots everywhere for years, even wore them into the river on that fateful swim that took his life, Wolf River! Imagine the irony of his body being discovered floating face down at the foot of Beale St, the home of the blues, a week after going missing in that river. Jeff had the soul of the Blues. Even tho Grace was not blues, Those that knew him said he loved blues and was a great blues artist and on some of those 4 track recordings that ended up being sketches of my sweetheart the drunk, there are some heavy blues influences on it that rip deep into your soul. Jeff had it all, he loved all music and could play all music. 25 years later his death is still very very sad. We got one record from him and half of it were covers because he was still finding himself musically.
He didn’t even really own the telecaster. That was loaned to him by a female musician he was friends with. It was returned to her after he passed. She then had to sell it and it went for a fortune
Jeff worked so hard and gave so much of himself. I have seen photos of him after gigs where he just looks beyond exhausted. The constant touring must have taken its toll. I know he had the guys in the band with him but I think he was fragile. He is missed❤️
@@Gramsgirl-ie8fb Non fragilis erat, portare pondus erat
@@kimbarnett619 my brother’s ex girlfriend of 4 years was Jeff Buckley’s guide in Sydney when Jeff toured. She became close friends with him and she knew his mother Mary. I have heard many stories about Jeff Buckley and if my old family friend wasn’t qualified to explain certain things about his life, then no one outside of his family was. Jeff saw his father once in his life as a kid before his dad died. His father wasn’t interested in kids, much less his own!
@@Daveymallon Thanks for replying, you taught me something I didn’t know. I would just listen to both Buckleys and being a bit ignorant about their life
@@kimbarnett619 it’s not important for us to necessarily know these things, the music is what matters. I just happened to be the brother of someone with an ex that was close to Jeff so I could know certain things. His life was kinda sad. Too much to divulge but Jeff didn’t get to experience so many things that a person should experience and he certainly didn’t get to live long enough for him to feel the acclaim for his very rare talent. He was a genius that was just getting started. Look at his record Grace. It was half covers cause he didn’t have enough material but the originals were absolutely out of this world!
This song gives me an indescribable feeling. something like a crazy, schizophrenic, mysterious and sad dream ... I never felt something like that with a song. I love it and I don't get tired of listening to it.
Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
We walked around 'til the moon got full like a plate.
And the wind blew an invocation and I fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare, that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Real, real, real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
thank youu
this song definitely is a fucking masterpiece. When I listen to it, no matter where, when, in which mood I am, it put me in peaceful move that I can't get over. The melancholy gives us so much emotion mixed with pain and passion, I always feel like a rockstar's girlfriend from the 90's and it's pretty pleasant I must say haha. I'm addicted, the more I listen to it the less I can stop thinking of those lyrics. This song connect us to Jeff in a perfect way, we're all intimate with him, his life, his struggles and I'm in fucking love with this work.
Still listening to this in 2014, good music never dies
2015 now.
Still listening to this. My goodness, I love him so much. Why did you have to leave the earth so soon ? why ?!
Now 2017 and I'm just learning of this tragedy. He's beautiful, spiritual, he could project sex with a twist of his voice that you can't even pinpoint. He had the voice of an Angel. I know, corny af and I've never ever used that term for anyone, but Dear God, why did he have to die before I even knew he existed, and I was plenty old enough to know.
It's the only explanation for why I married that asshole. I was supposed to marry this guy and he was already gone.
And yes, I know Mr. Cohen wrote it and many many other great songs that have sadly been forgotten. I'm just glad this one is still being discovered by millennials, maybe they'll start digging and find the treasure.
Rhonda Day no cohen wrote "Halleluhah"
I love you, but I'm afraid to love you... I'm afraid... Ugh his voice is so beautifully haunting
This man’s soul was deep at the molecular level, his light, energy and creativity was way too pure for this reality. I know his essence belonged elsewhere, this was just a temporary stopover
"I couldn't awake from the nightmare that sucked me in and pulled me under."
...
It's strange that this lyric would be in the song, seeing that he drowned, being pulled in and swept away by the undertow caused by a passing barge.
The lyric was...So Real.
Dakota Fronterhouse He said it loud and clear...It's my time..and I'm not afraid to die... DreamBrother
Bruh have you read the lyrics to grace?
The last line on the Grace album always gets me.. "asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over" - Dream Brother. You are missed JB.
Not so strange for Jeff trust me. When you’re already strange you’d understand.
Even in his covers, I know it's over "the sea wants to take me". It's kinda odd how many songs he sang that had some reference to drowning specifically
What a gorgeous and humble soul that left us way too soon.
I've never missed an artist as much as Jeff Buckley. I truly hope he's resting in peace
Today, Jeff would be a 49 years old man. Oh, we all wish you still were here with us, dear brother.
Dream Brother
Yesterday would have been 55
" I couldn't awake from the nightmare , it sucked me in, pulled me under" - spooky given the way in which he died
goober nachos how’d he die?
@@katherinedupoise4604 Drowned, think it in the Mississippi river
I remember one time when I was three years old I was sitting on our couch in the living room (well, I was actually laying down) and this video was playing on the TV. I only saw I little snippet though, and the only part I could ironically remember was the part where he was saying “I love you,” and taking his tie off but now watching this video again 15+ years later, it jogged my memory and now I remember him being on the bike.
Thats terrifying
Had the same thought during that lyric, very foreboding.
I felt that “real” at 4:01 in my soul ❤
Jeff Buckley - So Real.. 1994.. the peak of 90's creativity..
No...
+antoine Dalle Yes...
Come on, it will be fun...
+antoine Dalle Yes..
you petulant child
true dat
Agreed.
Probably the greatest song ever been written...
Thanks 😎
"Hallelujah" is an absolute masterpiece, but this song was far and away my favorite on Grace, and I loved nearly every song on it. It is one of the greatest songs from that whole era. It's like a four minute and thirty-eight second trip, like a song you literally had to come down from. Ecstatic. And the video is amazingly inventive.
my dad use to sing this song and play his guitar when I was a kid. haven't seen him in 10 years
That was mystic but really sad in same way
Miriam Moore I'm sorry, just know any father hurts without his child. And may you rise above this

One of the Greatest songs I've ever heard.
i refuse to believe he existed.... i adore him and his music so much. i think about you all the time, jeff buckley.
can't believe he's gone
Besides this song being a masterpiece, the video is really amazing also.
Salt Chronicles - Hearthstone Arena yeah but it has nothing to do with the song
you're into good music, I see.
Jeff is a masterpiece, so it's not *that* much of a surprise. :)
Agree. Jeff in a suit on a bike is a magic combinations
Jeff directed this video so anyone who says the clip is bad hates his vision
2:24 that incredible grungy moment that comes out of nowhere. This song really is something else.
I discovered Jeff Buckley a few weeks ago. He is by far one of the greatest artists I’ve ever listened to and his voice is something that you rarely hear. Mesmerising.
This song is so haunting and so real..
Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch

I love you, but i'm afraid to love you
Oh... that was so real
thannkkyouuu
I genuinely think this is one of the greatest songs ever written. So godamn powerful, I feel the emotion in his voice with every fiber of my being, it's insane. Wow! Can't believe how long it has taken me to get onto this guy
Wish i could bring him back to life.
Dennerson Samarony bruh... He coulda made o much more epic music. I agree with you.
.
weava repfours
With Grace he wrote his name in the music. But alive, he would be a king...a god. We dont have these idols anymore.
The deepest Soul a singer can reach. Only this singer the Most. ❤😊
this man.. it's been almost 6 months since ive discovered his album "Grace" and he just inspired me to write my own poems, i fell in-love with the lyrics he has written. he's truly a wordsmith, i miss you Jeff.
A tragedy that most people have no idea about his music and his contribution to the art.
After probably listening over a housand times to this song I still can't quite place what it makes me feel like... I do know that only's Jeff voice could do that. Pure magic
Absolutely haunting. His music makes you feel a lot. Legend 💔😢🙏
You think Jeff was real? Or did we just dream of him?
He was So Real.
Dream brother indeed
@@owenhunt ❣️
Iunno, either way I need to find me a man in a dress suit on a bicycle.
if its a dream, then i happily share.
Brilliant. Overlooked. Sad.
I'm so glad I discovered Jeff Buckley. He helped me to have self-confidence, his songs have a self-healing power. I'm just sad I couldn't attend none of his concerts
One of the greatest song’s ever made.
yes but also grace is such an amazing song all the songs on his album grace are beautiful
Why there is no more this kind of atmosphere anywhere...I miss 90s so much.
he has one of the most beautiful smiles I have ever seen.
His music saved my life. R.I.P. mystery white boy ♡
This song was so ahead of its time. Sounds like it easily could have come out in 2012-2019
I listened to his album Grace exclusively for probably 2-3 years. It had all the music I wanted. It just had me for years. I saw him perform in Austin and it was unbelievably beautiful and perfect in all the ways that matter, and it remains one of the best concerts in my life. He just sang this album. He barely spoke. He didn't need to. One year later he drowned, and I still can't get over it. I always wonder how many more perfect albums he hand in him. Unbelievably he won no awards for this album.
He is so unique. There is no one like him. His sound is so distinctive. RIP Jeff
There's just something so haunting and creeping about this song. I love it.
Never seen anything so haunting and beautiful like this before
This guy is one of the greatest reference in music worldwide no matter what gendre it is. He must be heard for all the generation
No matter how many times I listen to this, his voice always sounds so delightful.
one of my favourite songs ever
Jeff was so boyishly handsome. I remember listening to his music a lot the year I was introduced to him from best friend, in 2006. My heart would hurt listening to this album, but in a really good way. A true, pure, "I know I'm not dead" kind of way.
Blargh
@@harveymorgan1749 Nice to meet you, faceless wonder. No hiding here.
Just the passion that he had was always so beautiful. You could tell in every song that it was about something that meant something to him. He was such an amazing artist and I miss him a lot.
I can listen to this song for hours without getting bored. SOOO REEEAAAALL
I'm 18 and know about this incredible man only through my dad and our mutual passion for music, what's sad is that I'm one of very few young people that both know and understand what a tragedy it is that Jeff isn't here with us today. Keep his music playing, spread the word ,and he'll never be forgotten. Rip x
When you see someone with a sad face smile it seems brighter than any smile you've ever seen @2:00
well said
My friend just passed away and he Loved Jeff Buckley for so many years I lost the feeling of enjoying heartfelt music until he showed me Jeff Buckley I remember chilling with him summer 2023 painting his motorcycle listening to Jeff Buckley and him singing along he was so much an amazing Soul . R.IP. VAMPIRO AKA MCCLOUD !!
His songs are like lullaby’s so soothing yet beautifully emotional making you feel all kinds of things in 3 minutes
BRILLIANT SONG. BRILLIANT VIDEO.
Just discovering this and broadening my music tastes. Wow. What a wonder. Almost leaves you speechless.
Happy birthday , you talented very missed beautiful man
This video is so perfectly vintage and looks so much like a movie
Sophie Muller, same director for No Doubt's "Don't speak" video that came out around the same era.
I can't stop listening to this song. The snare is perfect.
I am still moved to tears by this song, after so many years... he was a true master of his art
Every time, never lets me down. He was so great, the greatest and he's gone. Love you Jeff, and let's not even talk about your guitar playing. x
the beginning of this song always takes me away ugh i miss him
This is a song that does not need any visual accompaniment. In fact, the video lessens the impact of the song. Friendly advice: just listen, in a quiet space, with your eyes closed, and weep at the transcending, transporting beauty that is So Real.
Sometimes I wish he wasn't dead so he could continue songwriting
I think of this every single time I hear his music. Why did the Mississippi claim such an amazing songwriter at the age of only 30.. 20 years next year. Finally learnt how to play this one today. I shed a tear every time I hear him. Stronger vocals than Led Zeppelin, intricate guitar work and exception blues and rock rhythm.. 'Sky Is a Landfill' also sounds like he was listening to Polvo and getting influence there too.. :( I miss the 90's so much - can/will we ever have music this amazing again?
I think the answer to your question is simply a matter of today's artists being influenced by artists from the 90s. Sadly rock isn't the hot music commodity today but I guarantee you that at least in LA if you walk into any small time music venue you will find some band trying to capture this sound. Sure music execs won't play it on the radio but that's what iPods are for. It's out there. You just have to find it.
Why in the holy fuck do you only wish that sometimes!?
It's always for me. Every moment of everyday. I can't seem to process how we lost someone so special so early in his life. 💔
David Brown don’t we all?
Oh how prophetic and gorgeous is this song. I don't miss you because you are a legend now, Jeff. I can still hear your music any time I like, and thank you. Hope you can see us all from heaven and smile. Old soul in a young man's body.
magic. this is what good music sounds like.
Jeff saying I love you is the best thing ever recorded
