Songs like this will be lost to the music void and forgotten except to the ones that Jeff truly touched. Everything Jeff added vocally or musically was just what was needed not one note to much or to little. He was a fantastic composer,producer and arrainger.
@@maldowling5966 Actually Andy Wallace is credited with producing the Grace album. Jeff only officially produced one track, So Real, but I assume he made a lot of the decisions in the production of other tracks since he had such a strong vision for his work.
"With the sunset forgetting that I ever happened". Never,ever anyone can forget that you happened,Jeff. You are one of the best things ever happened to us humans.
I'm really feeling the tragedy of his death now. Jeff's music is so relevant still, so it seems like he keeps giving, but the reality of his unfinished work is hard to comprehend. What a guy...
He can take a melody in any key and sing with such soul and lovliness. It IS almost unbearable. I just find him so fascinating and blessed. God it's been over 18 yrs now and just wish I could hangout with him and ask him to sing. All night until I feel asleep.
Billy Pilgrim You're so right! Almost all singers now, good as some of them are, seem to me like their kind of faking it... I can only stand Rachael Yamagata after Jeff...Nothing that worries too much about technique or virtuosism. Jeff had such an amazing voice that he didn't need to make an effort to sing "beautifully". What he does is seemingly simple, but it is not; it is not. He sings from his heart, his soul. The sounds in his voice come straight from his heart and his soul. I am bewitched by that fact an the beauty of his music. No one has expressed like him the angst or pain that comes with being alive. No one. I adore him.
the depth of passion and feeling is unmatched. his voice is so beautiful and haunting; one can't help but to feel his words, they touch your soul and take you inside his heart completely..... so sad he left so early. maurelle.
I remember walking home while listening to this song nearly 20 years ago. On a scale of 1 to 11, it was at least a 9 on the Irish Rain scale. It was like I was in a movie, and this was the soundtrack.
The sunset forgetting that I ever happened? Such a powerful quote , so much feeling. It looks like he thought of death and how it feels when you think about it. Not many people are brave enough to express this. 🌷🌸✨
@Fred Virtuoso Doing anything/simply existing is an already indelible mark, forgotten or remembered. Entropy makes the strain for 'legacy' seem a bit silly, to me. The paradox here is that Jeff didn't seem to care much about his legacy, either -- seems like the only way to get one is not to need one! lol
Dont pay attention to them.. they exist on every video because people are very different.. you never know if its a 6 year old who has access to their dads phone and dislikes it... or someone who is angry that this is being given a way for free and people arent purchasing the record. Lots of reasons.
É uma canção que tem que ser degustada,e para alguns paladares auditivos a música pode soar estranha de início. Mas,se continuar a ouvir irá se deparar com uma música que tem movimentos suaves e bruscos que nos hipnotizam. Morning Theft é assim também, linda ,começa lenta e vai tomando cores musicais até se tornar uma aurora boureal forma de canção.
GSJDSJBUD- Same for me !!! And in the morning too When I don't want to get up for going to school for exemple..his music relaxes and help me a lot, so glad he existed he will never be forgotten ❤❤❤
"Opened Once" I once was open And one with a travelling heart I loved with disregard Just like the fiction Rushing in your riverbed Arise like applause in my head And in the half-light Where we both stand This is the half-light See me as I am Just like the ocean Always in love with the moon It's overflowing now Inside you We fly right over The minds of so many in pain We are the smile of light that brings them rain In the half light Where we both stand In the half light You saw me as I am I am a railroad track abandoned With the sunset Forgetting I ever happened That I ever happened.
+John Arundell You are right sorry looked up the lyrics of this song it is "trembling heart"...again sorry about that. /it helps to know what Jeff is saying and trembling heart does make more sense. I thought the words showing above your statement, were the lyrics someone found and wrote down for all of us to see.
alicia mcmillan Most of the glaring errors come from the official lyrics transcribed in the Sketches album; unfortunately they weren't done correctly in the first place which is very disappointing. I just want to know what he sings as well because his words are so poetic and beautiful of course. This gem is one of Jeff's best ever songs in my humble opinion :)
"...with the sunset forgetting I ever happened". That is pure poetry. I have struggled to put into words that feeling and 'bam!!' there it is. Amazingly and beautifully put. What an artist!! Never ceases to amaze me.
That haunting guitar and voice popped into my head this morning while I lay in bed and barely awake. And I immediately grabbed my phone and played it. Wow! Incredibly nostalgic and bittersweet memories after purchasing this CD in ‘98, and knowing there would be no more new music from Jeff. It would have been amazing to hear what this album would’ve sounded like had that freak accident not occurred. The only musician whose death has truly saddened me to this day.
The blue light footage was extracted from the documentary, *Amazing Grace: Jeff Buckley.* The footage is taken from a solo performance Jeff gave in at *Gleneagles, Scotland* (sometime in *March, 1994).* This was a *Sony Showcase* event that saw various Sony acts perform, such as Jeff and Oasis; the latter performed directly after Jeff. Unfortunately, Jeff's entire set has never been officially released. It is strange, considering that Sony, presumably, filmed this and owns both the audio and visual rights and don't have to come to an agreement with another organization, in order to release this concert.

Thank you for the links. Very informative. We all appreciate the work you do in finding new music and interviews, even snippets of music, from Jeff Buckley. It makes him somehow alive and of now.
You And I (Guitar Version), Peace Offering, Gunshot Glitter, Thousand Fold, Witches' Rave (4 track version), Let's Bomb The Moonlight, etc...There are more songs. You can find them on Grooveshark.
Just simply, Amazing........... amazing............ amazing! Fans talked about what a gift Jeff gave us, which is so very true. Even more so Jeff was the gift. All music lovers know he was, and he makes me above anyone else truly appreciate music . I mean geez just listen to how real and sincere his voice is it's remarkable the way he can sing and express himself.
Such a beautiful song and Always will be one of my favorites,just like all the other masterpieces Jeff made❤ Today marks the 26th year of his passing 5-29-2023😔 which is so very heartbreaking… He truly was beyond talented and gifted but also had a sweet genuine soul too! I listen to his music every single day! It’s so powerful but yet so soothing and relaxes me like no other artists. I love you Jeff! You are everything and more of the meaning of “Grace”. You shine so brightly and will forever live on through your music! Rest in peace you sweet,sweet Angel… 🙏🏻💜🪽🌹✨🎵🕊️😘
It is a beautiful video, I really love the images and footage you used and of course that gentle song. All the waterey references scattered throughout his work haunt me. He was such an amazing poet and painter of sound...there is nor will there be anyone else like him. Thanks for making this video.
He sings: "I once was open, and one with a traveling heart. I loved disregard." Besides hearing him clearly sing "disregard" and closing the 'd' sound at the end of the word I am taking the whole line in context of the song; He was once a man who was not true to one woman...and now he is reflecting upon it and leaving the way that he once was behind because he now knows what it is to love.
I once was open and one with a travelling heart I loved this sweet guide Just like affection rushing in your riverbed Arise like applause in my head And in the half-light where we both stand This is the half-light, you see me as I am Just like the ocean, always in love with the moon It's overflowing now, inside you We fly right over the minds of so many in pain We are the smile of light that brings them rain In the half-light where we both stand In the half-light you saw me as I am I am a railroad track abandoned With the sunset forgetting I ever happened That I ever happened
My second celeb crush, after Edward Furlong. Looking back 20 or so years, I clearly had a type! Jeff Buckley was amazing. Tells a story. Thankful I got to love his music while he was alive :)
THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG! It's so ethereal.; feels like I'm flying when I hear the beautiful music and Jeff's sweet voice. It sounds like he's saying "I loved this sweet guy", but I went to the lyrics and it read "I loved this sweet god". Yet, one cannot make out the "d" at the end of "god" so I believe he's singing to a guy. I'm running with that one.
We are spiritual beings in a physical world, he's not gone he's somewhere else and I believe in my heart that he reached a peace we will never know in this world. Of course we feel robbed of such a treasure but at least we know he was here and left us with so many beautiful songs, we shouldn't take for granted not even two seconds of his music.
Both the physical and spiritual are integral to our nature. We’re not merely spiritual beings in physical vessels. We’re equals parts, both. What you’re espousing, it seems, is what the Gnostics believed (correct me if I am wrong): they believed that the physical world was bad, and that it was better to flee it and the body. As a Christian, I do believe that we do live on forever, either with God or apart from Him, depending on whether one has surrendered their lives and sins to Jesus. I certainly hope that Jeff is now with him, but I have no idea what was in Jeff’s heart.
@@MojoPin1983 I don't believe the physical world is bad, but I believe that in a spiritual life apart from our flesh we can experience something that our flesh prevents us from, it's not that the physical world is bad it's that we have a limit in spirituality (most of us at least) that some of us fight to push forward more and more through different sources but only after we die (if we die in Christ) we can reach the highest level
@True Blue What is your worldview? You seem to affirm the gospel, given your tacit acknowledgement of Christ’s divinity, but if you believe the New Testament, then it states that God is going to come dwell with the redeemed in Christ on the new earth. The saved will not live in some disembodied state, as the Gnostics believed, rather, they will be given physical, resurrection bodies, modeled after Christ’s risen body. Our bodies don’t hinder our spiritual consummation. God affirmed the goodness of the body and physical matter in Genesis when He called it, good.
@@MojoPin1983 a new body not this body,That's what I meant. Again I don't think the body is bad just restricted. I know we will have a new body, it'll not be a sinner's body. that doesn't take truth from my first statement
@True Blue I don’t think our current bodies really restrict us, per se, rather, it is our fallen nature that can impede our communion with Christ. That adversely manifests itself in our bodily desires. Due to that, our we are prone to the temptations of our flesh, which will no longer have any power over us in our resurrection bodies.
There is only limited footage from that concert currently available (Glenagles, Scotland 3 March 1994). There's a short snippet of Last Goodbye in the Grace EPK and there is a little more footage in the Lover, You Should've Come Over video on DreamBrother86A's UA-cam channel.
Have you heard the sketches 4-tracks that weren't officially released? You And I (Guitar Version) and Peace Offering, especially? There are still some pieces that haven't come to light, such as Sky Blue Skin. In time, we'll probably here more, but I don't think there is much left.
@s1ygirl No, he doesn't. According to his official tab book, he sings, 'I loved this sweet guide.' Referencing his traveling heart. 'I loved disregard' makes no sense.
Yeah, he was in Memphis when this was recorded, I believe. He could very well have used his Telecaster, but who knows. You'd have to contact one of his band mates, Tom Verlaine, or someone else who was close to Jeff. Why do you want to know? You should be able to achieve his tone with a Telecaster, just fine. I have the same Tele and Alesis Quadraverb effects unit that he used. I get pretty much mimic his sound.
@corpsehand1 Thanks. That's what I thought he stated. I think that's so beautiful. Was he referring to a past life when he states "traveling heart"? How do you know he was referring to a past self, which almost sounds like a past life? Just wondering. Thanks for clarifying this. I think a lot of people get the lyric wrong because they shun at the idea of two men being in love or reincarnation.
Well there is some material that has been leaked, that wasn't officially released. Have you heard the 4 tracks that didn't make it onto disc 2 of Sketches?
I think so too. This was written when Jeff was just beginning to understand and forgive his father. Opened Once - Jeff remembered meeting Tim just once.
James Franco is a decent actor that looks kinda like Jeff Buckley, so what! Jeff Buckley is one of a handful of talents that was so great it's not right to put any other's name with his, Buckley was like a Mozart or John Lennon or Freddie Mercury or Beethoven, he had that kind of talent. When I hear Jeff sing there is no other one that comes to mind.
@MojoPin1983 I think that's a strong statement anyway. Men are so afraid to say that they love another guy, especially a sweet guy, because they fear someone may question their sexuality. Or some mistake someone speaking from a women's perspective, which may be the case here. I don't know if you ever heard Prince's "If I was your Girlfriend"? It was a great song because he looked at his girl from a women's perspective. Many thought it was him broadcasting his gay nature, but it wasn't. Thanx.
@shesgonewiththesin Thanks. Jeff was one of a kind. Sadly we'll never see another nearly as gifted. Since you like Jeff you should check out the album, 'Colma' by Buckethead. It'll floor you. Grace is the only prettier thing I've heard.
@girraud The lyric has nothing to do with reincarnation. It's either about a friend of his or sung from the perspective of a woman. Jeff possibly being the sweet guy.
![Jeff Buckley - I Woke Up in a Strange Place [Acoustic]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/7sEQhyqpkjU/mqdefault.jpg)
one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
💗
It is, whenever I play for my cousins they say it’s gay, but I don’t care great song.
Songs like this will be lost to the music void and forgotten except to the ones that Jeff truly touched. Everything Jeff added vocally or musically was just what was needed not one note to much or to little. He was a fantastic composer,producer and arrainger.
Not disagreeing but he did only produce like one song i think
@@georgevalley1319 you mean one official album...Grace
@@maldowling5966 Actually Andy Wallace is credited with producing the Grace album. Jeff only officially produced one track, So Real, but I assume he made a lot of the decisions in the production of other tracks since he had such a strong vision for his work.
"With the sunset forgetting that I ever happened".
Never,ever anyone can forget that you happened,Jeff. You are one of the best things ever happened to us humans.
Jeff was beautiful, his voice, his lyrics, the way he explained music, everything, he was beauty
Jeff Buckleys approach to harmony and melody is absolutely superb. Very unorthodox but beautiful.
he just rips his soul and I feel it all with mine.
Dea Carvalho beautifully said
"Just like the ocean...always in love with the moon." Poetry
I'm really feeling the tragedy of his death now. Jeff's music is so relevant still, so it seems like he keeps giving, but the reality of his unfinished work is hard to comprehend. What a guy...
Jeff touches me so deeply it hurts...amazing artist and soul.
He can take a melody in any key and sing with such soul and lovliness. It IS almost unbearable. I just find him so fascinating and blessed. God it's been over 18 yrs now and just wish I could hangout with him and ask him to sing. All night until I feel asleep.
I'm the exact same way he's such an angel
Billy Pilgrim You're so right! Almost all singers now, good as some of them are, seem to me like their kind of faking it... I can only stand Rachael Yamagata after Jeff...Nothing that worries too much about technique or virtuosism.
Jeff had such an amazing voice that he didn't need to make an effort to sing "beautifully". What he does is seemingly simple, but it is not; it is not.
He sings from his heart, his soul. The sounds in his voice come straight from his heart and his soul.
I am bewitched by that fact an the beauty of his music. No one has expressed like him the angst or pain that comes with being alive. No one.
I adore him.
+M C
yes, I actually think that the planet changed around the time Jeff past.
whatever happened ,
happened...
So fragile...and powerful!
the depth of passion and feeling is unmatched. his voice is so beautiful and haunting; one can't help but to feel his words, they touch your soul and take you inside his heart completely..... so sad he left so early. maurelle.
I remember walking home while listening to this song nearly 20 years ago. On a scale of 1 to 11, it was at least a 9 on the Irish Rain scale. It was like I was in a movie, and this was the soundtrack.
The sunset forgetting that I ever happened?
Such a powerful quote , so much feeling.
It looks like he thought of death and how it feels when you think about it.
Not many people are brave enough to express this. 🌷🌸✨
@Fred Virtuoso Doing anything/simply existing is an already indelible mark, forgotten or remembered. Entropy makes the strain for 'legacy' seem a bit silly, to me. The paradox here is that Jeff didn't seem to care much about his legacy, either -- seems like the only way to get one is not to need one! lol
How can something so perfect like this have dislikes? I just don't understand.
Dont pay attention to them.. they exist on every video because people are very different.. you never know if its a 6 year old who has access to their dads phone and dislikes it... or someone who is angry that this is being given a way for free and people arent purchasing the record.

Those who don’t accept love cannot then see or truely feel unconditional love like his 😌

"Opened Once"
I once was open
And one with a travelling heart
I loved with disregard
Just like the fiction
Rushing in your riverbed
Arise like applause in my head
And in the half-light
Where we both stand
This is the half-light
See me as I am
Just like the ocean
Always in love with the moon
It's overflowing now
Inside you
We fly right over
The minds of so many in pain
We are the smile of light that brings them rain
In the half light
Where we both stand
In the half light
You saw me as I am
I am a railroad track abandoned
With the sunset
Forgetting
I ever happened
That I ever happened.

We will never forget that you happened Jeff! Your soul lives and shines through your beautiful music daily for me ❤️
This man was a gift for the music, Like Thom Yorke, Chris Martin, Matt Bellamy, etc.
Love this song; compelling melody. Jeff's delivery is magnificient.
Ethereal and dreamlike.. I sense a strong Liz Fraser influence in this.
so beautiful... almost unbearable! But listen forever, I will
Allow Tao i cant listen without crying like an idiot...
A dear friend/Buckley lover let me discover this wonderful song...the great album...L❤VE Buckley...he moves me,always...chills...tears...❤❤🎵🎶🎤🎸🔝
Such utterly beautiful music 👼.
Could listen to this song over and over and over. Lovely job.
He rips your soul out,and puts it back.
Genius
he was literally an angel
This song is so beautiful it carries a roundness and haunts me. I cant let it go.
The poetry made wonderful lyrics
God damn it Jeff, why did you die? We need more people like you in today's world. I miss you everyday.
Very true
Existem pessoas que poderiam não morrer nunca
A lovely combonation of video and pictures to a wonderful song. Thank you for putting this together and sharing!
That's it. I've listened to it again and yet again I'm sobbing . I have to listen to this on ration.....
Remember, Jeff thought this was not yet done. An Amazing song. Nice Production by Tom Verlaine. 🎸 God.

As a Christian, I do believe that we do live on forever, either with God or apart from Him, depending on whether one has surrendered their lives and sins to Jesus. I certainly hope that Jeff is now with him, but I have no idea what was in Jeff’s heart.
@@MojoPin1983 I don't believe the physical world is bad, but I believe that in a spiritual life apart from our flesh we can experience something that our flesh prevents us from, it's not that the physical world is bad it's that we have a limit in spirituality (most of us at least) that some of us fight to push forward more and more through different sources but only after we die (if we die in Christ) we can reach the highest level
@True Blue What is your worldview? You seem to affirm the gospel, given your tacit acknowledgement of Christ’s divinity, but if you believe the New Testament, then it states that God is going to come dwell with the redeemed in Christ on the new earth. The saved will not live in some disembodied state, as the Gnostics believed, rather, they will be given physical, resurrection bodies, modeled after Christ’s risen body. Our bodies don’t hinder our spiritual consummation. God affirmed the goodness of the body and physical matter in Genesis when He called it, good.
@@MojoPin1983 a new body not this body,That's what I meant. Again I don't think the body is bad just restricted. I know we will have a new body, it'll not be a sinner's body. that doesn't take truth from my first statement
@True Blue I don’t think our current bodies really restrict us, per se, rather, it is our fallen nature that can impede our communion with Christ. That adversely manifests itself in our bodily desires. Due to that, our we are prone to the temptations of our flesh, which will no longer have any power over us in our resurrection bodies.
absolutely agreed
He exactly blow my mind..
This is a good video man!🙌🏻
Thank you, Thomas.
Great job on this video. Loves it!!!!
There is only limited footage from that concert currently available (Glenagles, Scotland 3 March 1994). There's a short snippet of Last Goodbye in the Grace EPK and there is a little more footage in the Lover, You Should've Come Over video on DreamBrother86A's UA-cam channel.
Thank God his mother put out his work when we list a beautiful soul too soon.
I love this song ❤️
Have you heard the sketches 4-tracks that weren't officially released? You And I (Guitar Version) and Peace Offering, especially? There are still some pieces that haven't come to light, such as Sky Blue Skin. In time, we'll probably here more, but I don't think there is much left.
@MojoPin1983
Cufable's words mean "Once you open up the door to essence, all the rest hasn't got any meaning anymore".
@s1ygirl No, he doesn't. According to his official tab book, he sings, 'I loved this sweet guide.' Referencing his traveling heart. 'I loved disregard' makes no sense.
Love you Jeff
Beautiful
Respect!
You opened us with you.
Yeah, he was in Memphis when this was recorded, I believe. He could very well have used his Telecaster, but who knows. You'd have to contact one of his band mates, Tom Verlaine, or someone else who was close to Jeff. Why do you want to know? You should be able to achieve his tone with a Telecaster, just fine. I have the same Tele and Alesis Quadraverb effects unit that he used. I get pretty much mimic his sound.
Great song, nice video :) beautiful image of Jeff in the rain droplets @ 2:10 what does it say?
+John Arundell Not sure. I can't remember where I came across that image.
MojoPin1983 I would guess they are lyrics but someone has gone to a lot of trouble to make that artwork :) great idea, great result.
+John Arundell Its the lyrics to 'Hallelujah'. If you look closely to the right you can see where it says "the fourth the fifth".
Jeff Buckley forever
Nice job on the video!
@corpsehand1 Thanks. That's what I thought he stated. I think that's so beautiful. Was he referring to a past life when he states "traveling heart"? How do you know he was referring to a past self, which almost sounds like a past life? Just wondering. Thanks for clarifying this. I think a lot of people get the lyric wrong because they shun at the idea of two men being in love or reincarnation.
@Ninarvana Thank you.
I loved this sweet god
Well there is some material that has been leaked, that wasn't officially released. Have you heard the 4 tracks that didn't make it onto disc 2 of Sketches?
I think so too. This was written when Jeff was just beginning to understand and forgive his father. Opened Once - Jeff remembered meeting Tim just once.
Mi Dios!
I ache for some sort of lost material. Beautiful mind he had.
James Franco is a decent actor that looks kinda like Jeff Buckley, so what! Jeff Buckley is one of a handful of talents that was so great it's not right to put any other's name with his, Buckley was like a Mozart or John Lennon or Freddie Mercury or Beethoven, he had that kind of talent. When I hear Jeff sing there is no other one that comes to mind.
@MojoPin1983 I think that's a strong statement anyway. Men are so afraid to say that they love another guy, especially a sweet guy, because they fear someone may question their sexuality. Or some mistake someone speaking from a women's perspective, which may be the case here. I don't know if you ever heard Prince's "If I was your Girlfriend"? It was a great song because he looked at his girl from a women's perspective. Many thought it was him broadcasting his gay nature, but it wasn't. Thanx.
@shesgonewiththesin Thanks. Jeff was one of a kind. Sadly we'll never see another nearly as gifted. Since you like Jeff you should check out the album, 'Colma' by Buckethead. It'll floor you. Grace is the only prettier thing I've heard.
Just passing through.
I am Heidi. I was literally taken a back seeing my name at the end haha, huge fan of Jeff.
Upon creating this video, I was secretly anticipating that you would see and comment on it, nearly 8 and a half years into the future. ;-)
haha
Any idea which of his guitars Jeff used to record this song? Thanks.
@girraud The lyric has nothing to do with reincarnation. It's either about a friend of his or sung from the perspective of a woman. Jeff possibly being the sweet guy.
