"You're shaping sound in order to fit a feeling"
Yeah! Oops
the mainstream nowadays is fucked, we need a jeff now.
I read this right as he was saying it. What a perfect way to describe it ❤
sickboy I think we have a Jeff 🤭🤭 There’s this new kid, Alejandro Aranda. Getting noticed from American Idol but his genius arrangements, melodies, emotion he puts into his songs, his skills on guitar and piano just give me the feeling I got when I listen to Jeff. Not a mimic but his own thing. Its refreshing af. His personal music posts are where you see those feelings.
Wild Child I’m sorry but no.
So gentle, so lovely, his eyes say it all, poetry, can listen to him talk forever, so calm and peaceful, what a man, what a gifted human
I totally agree.
what an artist... the real last artist of our times... miss you Jeff
I think he looked completely lost and disturbed.
He was just a human being. All you nitwits bought into the romantic poet bullshit.
He was also tortured though. I can also see that in his eyes. There is no way he could have written all those great songs without it. Thats one thing about art, the good art is derived from pain and a tortured soul.
Oh my gosh he was so sensitive and weird. So sweet and soft-spoken
Weird how?? Maybe compared to the plastic people around nw
@Angel G€RM@N lol Nah just being a typical Scorpio male.
@@mojo2679 weird doesn't mean bad🙄 sometimes is better
@@Merdenoms what does his zodiac have anything to do with it
i guess I'm pretty randomly asking but do anybody know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?
I'll always be in love with the soul of this man.
same same 💫
Well even a straight guy like me is in love with the purity of this man's soul.
I love you
Me too ♥️
Me too! He was truly remarkable.
"Why does your TV station wanna know about me?" I really like that
one of the most authentic and beautiful souls to ever exist. his life was poetry...not just his music.
There are some people that I just wish we could get back somehow ...
Easy enough to say from the outside
Because his dad died and then he died ? Poetry?
@@Rhinoinasuit Not just me saying it. Plenty of people close to him talked about his authenticity and ability to connect to them on a deep level. Something very rare nowadays.
@@harveymorgan1749 No, you nimrod. Because he fearlessly spoke his truth and did so in an eloquent way.
His youth makes my heart melt. It makes me think how "liquid" we all are. I hear his beautiful voice, i see his distant sight, i think that he doesn't exist anymore. But how is it possible? Life is like a lie, but his art seems so true. It was short but big.
Oh, but he still does exist. In the spirit world. And I'm not joking
He’s in Heaven now
Martha beautifully stated! 🙏🇬🇧
That's very profound Martha
Very empathic answer, thanks alot
I don’t know how many times I’ve said to myself while watching Jeff play or speak in interviews, “I wonder what music would be like if he never went swimming that day” 😭😭
He would have single-handedly changed music, and would be dominating the music scene, today.
Such a tragedy. I have only recently come across his music. He was a very gifted artist indeed. 💖
He still changed music,had big influence on Thom yorke for instance.
@@MojoPin1983 thats true
He would have swam another day
The vulnerability in his eyes always really reminds me of James Dean.
It seems so genuine
Could he be any more beautiful?? The face and voice of an angel.
he was so intriguing
as they say, who met him, he was down to earth, but there was some magic about him
ive seen u comment on multiply videos on Jeff, must be a big fan
@@TommyMoritz maybe add
the interviewer was my aunt. sadly she passed away 3 years ago but she always told us stories about the celebrities she met. she said jeff was very kind to her.❤
@K The interviewer was Jane Cunningham, who is still very much alive.
@@MojoPin1983 no ❤
@@user-ny5pk4rd2f What are you talking about? I spoke with the interviewer, personally, just a couple of years ago, on FB.
@@MojoPin1983 I wish.. I really miss her. And I pray everyday just to talk with her again even for just 1 minute. I think you experienced a miracle. And you should thank to our lord Jesus for that. I will pray for you and Jeff. Please pray for me and my aunt.
@@user-ny5pk4rd2f LMFAOO "no ❤"
He's just beautiful. Too beautiful for this world.
"Basically just you, yeah, what are you doing? You, you, you're shaping sound in order to fit a feeling, and to make sure that's a good vehicle for that feeling; words are accurately emotional... Emotionally accurate, you know?"
Could he be any more perfect. No.
@@kimlec3592 No he is definitely not perfect, he is totally real, unique. There's a completely great difference between them.
I would not hesitate to say that this was the greatest loss in music history. At least Jimi got to have a good few years.
everytime i hear Grace and his covers i have an anguish in my heart because i feel that something is missing, there was so much to be said and i honestly don't understand how "destiny" could have taken this beautiful life, there's a lot of musicians but most of them don't talk about music the same way Jeff did.
Jeff's music lives on and carries him with it- just like he wanted. I am completely agree with you though. So so sad.
Trust.
he was so beautiful
I just love him. You can tell he just loves what he's doing. I want to give him a hug.
It would be precious to be able to embrace him and thank him. Love him it tears heart of mine
Yes but he s dead 😉
He's an angel.
" shaping sound to fit a feeling" so beautiful
He’s completely adorable! It would have been quite something to have known him.
"Authentic", "beautiful" ... but, above all, uncompromisingly human. I totally respect and love that in an artist.
He was.. Is always will be so precious
I'm in absolute love with him. He couldn't give two shits about the fame. He cared about sharing his gift and connecting people emotionally to his music. He has such a beautiful ethereal demeanor but you can tell he's an incredible selfawareness.
it's so beautiful how talented he was and how simplistic he remained. Beautiful person.
I just learned about him tonight and am crying over his passing. Such a deep level of attention and emotion within his music and even just within his voice... its humans like these, who remind you of just how precious life truly is. He had so much potential, the beginning of such growth but it feels as though he was snipped at the bud...
He seems so sweet.
2 years later he was gone. What would we do without audio/video technology...
Another Jeff alike will appear again, sooner or later.
@@Question_Authority lol sure
Greatest singer of Hallelujah of all time. He is so emotionally connected with the song it's as if he was meant to sing the song.
This man was inspired on a whole other level. We miss you forever Jeff
He is very... Soft, delicate, sensitive and beautiful...
he was so talented and what a face, he had it all
A pure soul. So genuine. Plus, what a great smile.
This short recording caressed my soul, thank you really...
He spoke like an old soul, like he wasn't from this time. Very cool
The fact that Jeff will always remain young , and sweet. Something very poetic about it, he never ages. Such a beautiful light. 😇🙏❤
Jeff communicates using his entire being. Mind, body, and soul. When he expresses himself it all lines up. And it's a fucking *masterpiece.* I've known people like this, though they are painfully rare. They warm everyone fortunate enough to be near them. Like the sun. To know them is to love them. And they don't even have to try. You just want to be with them. Doing anything. Or doing nothing at all. To share experiences with them is just beyond comparison. Most of the joy comes from getting to witness their reaction in real-time. It's intoxicating. They make you feel safe. Sorta like you're indestructible. Like no matter what it is, or what happens next, to be with them is enough to make your whole world okay for a while.
These types are a gift. More precious than diamonds. If you are loved by one, especially if you are entrusted by one, cherish them openly. And as often as you can. They tend to feel everything very deeply. This includes the bad stuff, making them quite tortured at times. And likely to spiral. They often need extra support, love, and assurance. And I mean lots of it. In quantities far more than most ever need. But they are not spiritual vampires, every bit of emotional labor you put into the relationship comes back, tenfold. It's in the way they experience it and feel it. Their kindness, their sincerity, their gratitude. And especially the love they feel for you. You can see it all over them. And god, does it ever turn your insides to mush. You'd move mountains for them. All they have to do is smile.
I know it's a stretch to say this of Jeff since I didn't know him and have only seen him speaking in interviews and other precious little bits of media here and there. And of course, we are blessed to have his art. I can only know him through that. But I do know this "trait" (for lack of a better word) and it is almost always instantly identifiable. You don't need a lot of source material to know it when you see it. And it cannot be faked.
thank you. Precious.
Ah he touches every fiber of my being. Every time. Forever.
A beautiful man, time flies. It's so wonderful to find these interview on YT.
He was such a profoundly beautiful guy, too rare for this worlds brutality. His universal heart to vast for one small human body.
He was so wise and soft-spoken
What a brilliant mind he had. Such a beautiful spirit he had.
My chest aches now that I am thinking deeply about something so simple and natural, yet so devastating and heartbreaking... Jeff Buckley is no longer with us.
Happy birthday Jeff, Nov 17. Remembering you today and always.
Imagine his reflections on life now, wisdom, and ...all the music we lost.Makes what we have , all the sweeter perhaps, the cherishing, the nodding.
His eyes!
He's so beautiful
Thank you! It is short but it's worth it.
The beauty of having some small access to the thoughts of a legend who left us too soon. RIP Jeff
I love his voice 😍
Me too 😍😍😍😍
And this is why you are on their TV, so you could bless us so many years even after you're gone. I am grateful for the interview.
the best singer ever
So pure,so sweet and precious. He
seemed very genuine.
Incredibly sensitive guy and beautiful soul. Forever young
Deep grace & gratitude 🎶🌻💛💫🌠
what a beauty.
His smile is so beautiful.
Dude was beyond talented !!!

I could watch this 1000000 times, I love him & his music, wish he was still around.. :(

The Last Goodbye...Vancouver...What Would You Say....All Flowers in Time...this man is sorely missed today
his voice is so soothing
This interview was done at Steyne Park in Double Bay, Sydney. Been here a few times and absolutely beautiful.
Probably staying at the Ritz Carlton, and was gracious enough to do a little interview in the park. Gold.
You're absolutely correct on that. He was doing the rounds of publicity on the day this interview got recorded. It's a shame that the full interview has never been aired for us to see :(
God I wish I could be at one of his shows. Nothing today compares. But I'm still on the hunt!
So handsome and beautiful 💜
I can't look at his eyes. I get too emotional.
Jeff Buckley is a generational gem, I hope his music is remembered for generations. He was probably one of the kindest musicians, with an amazing voice
He's so beautiful and mysterious
Pretty Sure that's the T-shirt Nick Cave wears in the video for Stagger Lee...cool :) .
Man! I was all stoked for the gig to begin.
He was so beautiful.
Man that brings back memories! I played “Grace” to death, and even transferred it to cassette so I could play it in my car and wore that out over two-plus years. I couldn’t wait until his follow-up. Then I came across a tiny article about his death in the local paper in May ‘97 (I wasn’t home much at a time and the internet was just gaining popularity). To put it lightly, I was floored. It was the first time in my life that I was saddened by the death of a “famous” person; and that remains the case today. I put t”famous” in quotation marks, because Jeff was far from famous in the sense that you didn’t hear his music on any radio stations outside of college radio; his two videos were relegated to the late night “alternative” program 120 minutes on MTV; and the sales of Grace were modest. I’m fairly certain a completed second album would have made him a star, as you could hear the potential of some of the tracks off of Sketches… It’s a bit odd that it took American Idol contestants’ renditions of his version of Cohen’s “Hallelujah” to foster his posthumous exposure to the public. But better late than never, I guess; and regardless of the source from which his talent gained wider exposure and appreciation.
He came to earth to give us his gift, and is and always will be soul journey of beauty in music.
He is missed and loved, what a beautiful soul ♡
One of my favourite things on TH-cam
😢 the day i heard he was missing in the river... My heart broke.... Such sweet man
I love him sm, I wish I was around when he was still here
I miss him so much 😢
first time i see him in an interview, i love him
Nice and gentle soul...
Beautiful boy.
He’s beautiful
Jeff is fun to listen to, he is intuitively sharp!
I didn’t hear what he said because he is beautiful and the way he talk is mesmerize me
Thankyou Jeff. In my box at home, in my heart forever.
Can’t believe it took me so long to discover this angel
Magical! And...not. Jeff is beloved. And, just an ordinary person, look for deeper meaning in life. He beautifully, adventurously, and accurately expressed his inner longing through music. In that, his voice was unusually beautiful. But his story is as old as every other musician with the misunderstanding that music will fulfill them. It won't. But that longing....that's worth looking into. There's more. He knew that too. That's my favourite thing about him.
Such a soothing voice
NathFilms comments echo my feelings as well. He seemed such a gentle and honest human being with an amazing gift he shared through his music.
What a great interesting dude love him. A wonderful poet even in interviews!!!!👍❤️☮️
I got to see him perform in 1995. It was an enigmatic performance. He was lithe, sexy and beautiful, and boy, could he sing.
Angel visited for awhile
I love him so much :,)
Angel 😢😢😢
Almond eyes, miss you 4ever!
