BORN: November 17, 1966, Orange County, CA DIED: May 29, 1997 Born in California's Orange County on November 17, 1966, Jeff Buckley emerged in New York City's avant-garde club scene in the 1990's as one of the most remarkable musical artists of his generation. His first commercial recording, the four-song EP Live At Sin-e, was released in December 1993 on Columbia Records in the United States and Big Cat Records in the United Kingdom and Europe. The EP captured Buckley, accompanying himself on electric guitar, in a tiny club in New York's East Village, the neighborhood he'd made his home; the record's selections included two cover tunes laced with soaring vocal improvisation: Edith Piaf's "Je N'en Connais Pas Le Fin," Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lovers Do" a More...

Jeff Buckley was a musical genious. My dad used to play his music all the time when I was younger, back then I found it annoying but now I really appreciate and love his music. ... | Reviewer: Cholo ------ About the song Grace performed by Jeff Buckley The first time I listened to the album, I didn't like this song. My favorites were Last Goodbye and Lover You Should've Come Over. Only after months, I listened to this song again. And I jizzed in my pants. My life was changed forever. I'm 12, and I only heard of Jeff Buckley 2 years ago. But thank God that I ever did get to learn about his beautiful music. WaWw! | Reviewer: LMJ ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley i just love this version of music, jeff buckley was a really good singer, but the emotion of Loko was very pure, when i listen this, i forget all the same who is in my head...I really LOVE! ( sorry for the english i'm french ;) ) Greatness has no name or face | Reviewer: Yoni ------ About the song Forget Her performed by Jeff Buckley You know when you hear a masterpiece. there is no words of describing it. it just is. will allways be the best piece of music that ever came out.thats for sure. cant stop hearing it 'over and over'.Greatness. happy tears | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Last Goodbye performed by Jeff Buckley One of my close friends was a huge fan of Jeff, and he took his own life, and asked for this song to be played at his funeral. I can't listen to it without crying, or thinking of him. But it also makes me think of the good times, and I tear up, and smile at the same time. The sycophantic slags all say... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song I Know It's Over performed by Jeff Buckley Your opinions, although interesting, are irrelevant. Make no mistake: I am very fond of the late Mr. Buckley and actually quite fancy his cover, but the original version is still far superior. In comparasion with The Smiths' resigned majesty, Jeff Buckley sounds like a self-indulgent whiner, cluelessly faking his way through the song with exaggerated emotion. With that said, I really do think that it was well-intended, and I actually discovered The Smiths through this cover, so despite all faults I cannot help but somewhat like it. You must be crazy | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley You must be crazy to preffer another version or the original to this.This is the most amazing fuckin'song i have ever heard in my life.And believe me, i'm addicted to music.My skin shivers everytime it starts..it has so much emotion that i think i could die in every second but in the same time it makes me feel so alive ..Its amazing! The word 'crap' does not exist anywhere behind this song.Is one of the most beautiful songs ever!!! Amazing! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Lover, You Should've Come Over performed by Jeff Buckley This song is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It tortures the soul, yet offers hope, its never over... its not too late... OMG this song is wonderful! The Grace album is a piece of musical genius, Hallelujah is a magical song as well. Buckley's range and depth are untouchable by modern "artists". The song "Everybody Here Wants You" from the "Sketches for My Sweetheart" album is phenomenal. Never trust anyone that claims to be a music fan that has never heard or claims to not feel this music. Pure Genius! Music by Gary Lucas | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Grace performed by Jeff Buckley I just have to tell all of you who, just like me, adore this song and most other songs by Jeff, and who are talkning about his musicality in this song: Gary Lucas made the music for this song and a few other Jeff Buckley songs, like Mojo Pin. Though Jeff put on the vocals himself. Gary Lucas is an experimental guitarist that played with Jeff for a while and who had or has a band called Gods and Monsters. They (Gary and Jeff) eaven released an album together called Song to no one (may be post mortum though). So, this is the greatest song, and Jeff is the greatest, but - Gary Lucas still wrote the music for this and a few other great Jeff Buckley songs. thunderstruck | Reviewer: MMH ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley i listened to leonard cohens version and it was ok but this was amazing!!! some music give you joy momentarilly but this truly touches you! i listned to it for a few days(replaying it after it was finished), and i went today to read more about jeff buckley in wikipedia but when i found out he died 11 years ago it really pissed me of, god bless his soul i love this song :) | Reviewer: tania lennon ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley i love this song its amazing i cant wait just some more singing lessons and vocal training by next year i will be ready to try out on the x-factor. i hope u can send me the lyrics in email. this song is so romantic and u sing it amazingly :) alexandra did ruin the song he is much much better at the song he owns it not her .!xO What I Think | Reviewer: Buckley Fanatic ------ About the song Dream Brother performed by Jeff Buckley I wrote alot but bear with me.I heard that Jeff Buckley had a friend who was a musician. And he was having a bad marriage life. The guy wanted to leave his family behind. Im guesshng Jeff made this song to make the guy understand the error of his ways. But deep down Jeff saw a similarty in this situation to his life. Jeff Buckleys father Tim Buckley was also a musician.In 1966 at just age 19 he married, had a child (Jef Buckley), and released his 1st self titled debut album Tim Buckley. Tims music life affected his marriage which lead to a divorce. Tim left his child behind, to pursue his tragic dream of bieng a renowed musician. He created a barrage of great albums but they were all shunned for its experimentations. Tim would later marry another woman, but he felt devastated for the absence of his child. Tim clearly adresses this in his song Dream Letter. Pherhaps he adopted his second wifes child to ease his mind about it. Since the day he left them, Tim Buckley would only manage to see his 8 year old son only once in his life. The struggkes of success got to Tim and hed enter a world of drugs. Tim would quit but one 1979 night after a sold out concert, Tim would go to friends in search of heroin. They didn't want Tim to take drugs but they gave it to him anyways. Tim took a heavy dose and fell into an immediate coma. After quickly bieng transported to his wifes house, the little attempts to revive him failed. Paramedics announced dead on arrival. He was 28. Tim Buckley left his child, his love behind to create wonderful music.But all he did was alienate his fanbase and die in debt, that is very tragic. News of Tims death would arrive to a young Jeff Buckley who back then was known as Scott Moorhead. Jeff would not attend Tims funeral. After the funeral Scott Moorhead decided to officialy change his name to Jeff Buckley. Jeff would later grow up to be a musician like his father surpassing hm in fame. But alas that fame was shortlived. Jeff would drown in a freak accident. Hed barely outlived Tims death he war 30 years old. Getting on to point, Dream Brother [crazy resemblance to Dream Letter] was more directed to Tim Buckley and Jeffs pain. The musician was just an excuse to write this song. The term dream brother now an unknown phrase used to adress those who never had their mother/father in their life. (Note: There was also a small conspiracy to the line "asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over". some people thought this line meant something of death which lead some to believe the odd scenery it gives you resembles Jeffs mysterious death was probably suicide.) P.S.: If any one read this freaking long essay,....I say thank you for your time. Reminds me of... | Reviewer: Sergio Contreras ------ About the song Dream Brother performed by Jeff Buckley I am not really into this guy, but recently my wife pushed his music on me and once i heard this song i made an instant connection to The Doors' The End song. really such a beautiful piece. Even though i could barely understand the lyrics i know it had to do with something deep and personal. I remember saying, "Cant understand what hes saying, but you know its something strange. Gotta love it." Well glad i finally looked up the lyrics. Adding as one of my all time favorites. hallelujiah! | Reviewer: elsy ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley i ve been into this song for years now..i felt for it z sec i heard it, couldn t be more romantic beautiful then this...back in london, 2weeks ago, that was almost the only song ide ever listen to.. reminds me of this someone.. on and on | Reviewer: ben ------ About the song Dream Brother performed by Jeff Buckley thanks to my sister! I went to buy new David Gray's new release, but it was not out yet! then she introduced me to Jeff B.. Bought the cd without questioning! .. result? I've been listening dream brother ever since, on and on! incredible guitar and drums! I think there is something which reminds me Jim Morrison.. maybe in his emotional voice! but much more fine than him! Haven't listen Tim's music yet! what do you rekon? ciao from Italy We come together making chance into starlight | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Morning Theft performed by Jeff Buckley This song is so indescribably beautiful. The climax is so mind-blowing, and it just makes me stop whatever I'm doing. Especially at the end of the line "And though the meaning fits, there's no relief in this," there is that very slightest discord that always makes me shudder with sadness. Such an incredible work. Really, it almost feels like a sequel to the angry, bitter "Forget Her." In "Morning Theft," he sheds his anger and resentment and laments his lost love. Jeff was truly a genius. Lilac wine | Reviewer: Montse ------ About the song Lilac Wine performed by Jeff Buckley I agree there is something in the pure voice of Jeff Buckley, his soul, his heart ... that is contagious... makes you cry because it touches you so deeply that it moves old feelings, that can not confuse you... because they are so deep and real. Umm? | Reviewer: dan ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Jeff Buckley How is it even possible to down-play this version of the song? I'd easily venture my opinion that this is 10 times more powerful than the original. This is in my top 5 favourite songs of all time and i'd recommend it to anyone I know or don't know. Fantastically powerful and beautiful. jammin' w/ Tim | Reviewer: Helga ------ About the song Grace performed by Jeff Buckley hey keith airey...i was more hoping his jammin w/ Tim up there. I can imagine them with their guitars, singing each other's songs. That's the only place where they can be together...probably not as father and son but more as brothers. Grace was the second song of his that i've heard, the first was hallelujah, and i loved it at that instant. Just so beautiful. His voice was so haunting...and he's really a beautiful man. everybody here wants Jeff | Reviewer: lian ------ About the song Everybody Here Wants You performed by Jeff Buckley Jeff Buckley...men and women alike are so in love with you...wish you're still here. Whenever i hear this song i couldn't help but swoon for Jeff..i think his voice in this song in particular is the sexiest i've ever heard. The lyrics is so romantic. his voice never fails to warm my heart. I know i'll meet him someday to where he is now.
