R.I.P Jeff Buckley ❤️

1:24 in the background you can see Jeff shoot up double middle fingers when the hostess mentions his father. Despite them both being musicians his father was actually absent from his childhood.

Best male vocalist! period. So many singers have tried to tap into Jeff's essence and still comes up till this day.

He's not the best male vocalist ever in my opinion, but he's really, really, fucking good. His vibrato is incredible and super-unique and he's got range for days. Anyway, what I wanted to say is - I've watched this video several times - and his singing is awesome as always, but this time around I was getting completely pissed off about his guitar skills. He's got an awesome right hand.

@@RockChalk263 He was in a metal band before his solo career. people often look over that he was also an awesome guitar player.

I messaged the bassist you see on this show, Mick Grøndahl, he replied and agreed to sign my vinyl sleeve of Grace! lovely bloke.

Jeff is INCREDIBLE. And so are you for featuring this performance. Jeff sang about death a lot, about dying. He explained the meaning of this song as (and I'm paraphrasing) the feeling when you know there's someone that loves you so much, the way it makes you feel, you aren't afraid of anything. Losing Jeff was SO heartbreaking and wrong. He wasn't a heavy drug user at all, not a heavy drinker, not a reckless person, not suicidal. Just a horrific, tragic, gut wrenching accident. Sometimes those happen, and it's no one's fault. Just a horrible set of circumstances happening in the exact wrong way at the exact wrong time, and Jeff just happened to have been there in the middle of it. He decided to go for a swim, spontaneously. A lot of people try to attach nefarious meaning to his decision to swim that evening. It's undeserved. Jeff lived in Memphis. He had swam there before. People get it mixed up and say he tried to swim in the Mississippi River but he didn't, it was a tributary. From what the guy who was there with him said, Jeff was in good spirits. He was signing Led Zeppelin as he swam off. Dude looked away for a second and Jeff was gone. After he was recovered a few days later it was determined there were no drugs or alcohol in his system. It's suspected he got pulled down in a bit of an under current created by a passing boat. When that happens, you're pulled down, and certain infrastructure in an industrial river like the one Jeff was in can create a sorta horizontal funnel, continously spinning and pushing you down. Such a tragedy. I wish I had been old enough to see him but unfortunately I was only a young child and wouldn't discover him until he had been gone for many years.

After that long growling screechy scream at the end he then instantly sounds like an angel.

John Legend said Jeff is the only male vocalist who intimidates him. RIP Jeff 😇😇

I adore this performance. Ive watched it so many times. And he is absolutely gorgeous.

Jeff's cover of Lenard Cohen's "Halleluiah" is a treasure .

I think so too. it all starts with Leonard's version of course but there is the one by Jeff, my favorite by KD Lang and there is another that you should check out and it's a unique version by Michael McDonald.

Yes its beautiful

Love Jeff! I was up late on the loveseat watching a live performance of his while my twin bro slept on the nearby sofa. I tried to be respectful by listening on low volume, but it still managed to wake him up anyway because Jeff was going nuts on the mic! He was a true talent and I will always feel sad about his death even though by the time I heard him he had been dead for years. I'm forever thankful he gave us the music he did while he was here.

Greatness ! 🔥Jeff Buckley Had such Amazing Talent 👏

Jeff was such a flash of immense unique powerful talent as a singer, guitarist and songwriter. The music he oould have brought - we will never know but it would have been something else...we all missed such a once in a generation treasure - so sad just for him as a person. But it is wonderful to see his transcendent talent hit your channel.

When Jeff passed, the internet was still so new. I was a member of a Ben Folds listsrv and they played hours of Jeff music and interviews on the Australian radio station Triple J. A member of that listserv offered to record it off the radio and mail it to me - in INDIANA. Wouldn't you know, weeks later, I got that tape in the mail. That we felt so strongly about him, to do such selfless acts just to share in the magic, says more about him than anything else I could say in words, probably.

The guy is/was a SPECIAL singer songwriter musician. Lover, you should come over…brilliant song to check out…did request this in my many requests lol 🙏🏻

I wanna say... you just heard the song. And you heard him predicting his demise.... that is exactly what happened. "I'm Not afraid to go... but it goes soooooo Slooooooooooowww all alooone" Once you know.how he died this whole album becomes terrifyingly dark and ghostly. Beautiful

Jeff had a 4 octave vocal range!!

BBC is like PBS for the U.K. They have all manner of programming on there though. Thanks for checking out Jeff!

Jeff ♥️

BBC : British Broadcasting Cooperation, its the British state broadcasting company.

One of the greatest voices ever in my opinion. You are right about the waiting to die line. His father died when he was 9. He had only met him in person once as his dad was always away touring. I think he grew up thinking he will die young like his dad. In fact the circumstances around his death are really strange. Some think he drowned on purpose, others think he didn’t mean to but he also didn’t try to fight it. I don’t suppose anyone will ever know.

That whole album is amazing!

I now own a signed promotional cd by Jeff Buckley! near impossible to find ANYWHERE! I also messaged Gary Lucas, Lucas wrote the music to the song you just heard Grace! Buckley just sung the vocal melody and wrote the lyrics to it. Gary has agreed to sign my lp of Grace too!!! 😱 C 03 - 07 - 23

One of my favorite vocalists!! I was going to request this and not only had you done it, but I had watched you react to it previously!! Another great gone too soon! NOT of drugs though, for a change!

I would personally like to see you do one or both of the following videos at some point. Mojo Pin live in Chicago or Glastonbury or Lover You Should've Come Over from Chicago.

Maybe you could check out Nick Drake - River Man? I found Nick Drake alongside Jeff Buckley and I think it's a really neat track.

I recommend “Lover, you should have come over”

i had to like and subscribe because you didnt pause constantly and talk non stop. good job !

Love this 💜💜💜

Jeff Buckley died at the age of 30 by accidental drowning. He was a scorpio (born on November 17th), and as all Scorpios, he was easily able to embrace the concept of life-and-death, and have no fear about it. His writing provoked thought... he was amazing. His rendition of Leonard Cohen's song Hallelujah is a piece of priceless artwork. kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2x1uaifZ6ink5c.html

Jeff buckley best ever vocalist bar none. His Glastonbury set is amazing and I'd really urge you to listen to the opening of Dream Brother from that set. It's breathtaking

As great as he is, his dad has more range if you can believe it. Definitely a wider range of style as well.

Good morning ❤️.

You should check out his song "Everybody Here Wants You". It's pretty much an R & B song, and really highlights his diversity. It was to be on his last album.

Come on Jeff.....

Check out Van Morrison's album "Astral Weeks". The song " Sweet Thing" is an all time favorite of mine. But I stumbled upon a cover version done by Jeff Buckley and damn near had an out of body experience. I suggest being excessively high and in the dark. Lol. A rare case of a cover song that blows even the original version out of the water. I suggest listening to the original first. Jeff Buckleys version is a live recording. Insanity. Peace.

Oh hell, lets not delve into the BBC. British Broadcasting Corporation - dispicable people harboring and defending pedophiles. Lets discuss Jeff Buckley - amazing artist, gone way to soon. Two British bands cime to my mind immediately when I hear this track - Muse and Radiohead.
