Lyrics:
Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you toher kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
#JeffBuckley #Hallelujah #OfficialMusicVideo
I'm leaving this comment here so that whenever someone likes it, I come to listen this song and feel him over and again!

Here we are..
And again!
and again
Come listen with me
“I don’t really need to be remembered. I hope the music’s remembered.”
- Jeff Buckley
W music taste and W pfp
Well I'll remember you anyway and your father too and his music.
Remembered.
It was Leonard Cohen who wrote this song. It's a shame that he didn't get enough recognition he deserved.
yes I know alr ! Its shaming@@nonttwentyone2418
I am battling cancer and if i go i want this played. I want the people who care to hear this and feel at peace knowing i am not in pain anymore.
❤Sending you 🫂 a big hug! God loves you! ❤️
Oh Sweetie! My heart is with you! My husband of 30 years passed in July from a crazy cancer caused by exposure to Agent Orange. I trust your odds are better than his but I know how brutal this must be. God bless you. You're in my heart & prayers!❤
Love to you.
The only one I’ve read About who can do miracles is Jesus Christ. My mum passed of cancer and it’s if I knew then what I know now type as all is. I’m praying to the one who made the sun the moon and you and me. Don’t be afraid
What’s your name?
I needed to hear this today. My beautiful daughter passed away 10 years ago.she will be 38 this yr. Always in my heart. XOXO
😢
I've done a cover of this song beautiful song,,, Mikey Morales hallelujah 🙏🙏🙏
@GabrielleHiggs
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I'm 36, will be 37 in a few months and I just had my first child in October, a beautiful boy and he has changed my life forever 💙 I have finally found my purpose in life in becoming a mother. I can't imagine my life ending at the tender age of 28 (I was halfway through an active addiction to very hard drugs)
I offer you my deepest sympathies and prayers 🙏 ❤️
Stay strong, your daughter is next to you at every moment. 🤗 God bless you 🙏
My son's name is Gabriel coincidentally ❤
My sister died 10 years ago too. She'll forever be 34. So sorry for your loss.
My son was 38 when he introduced me to Jeff Buckley's beautiful rendition of Hallelujah. He told me of how Buckley passed and how it made him feel. Three months later he died in a terrible accident in much the same way. I come here occasionally to remember him.
Alleluiah brother. Praise the lord 🙏
I’m sorry for your loss. 😢❤
Rest in peace it’s nice that in a strange way he will be remembered every time anyone will read this,it gonna give you strength and energy !
Love u!
God bless you and may your son rest in heaven 🙏
🙏
David: *plays secret chord*
The lord: Nice
The lord: finally, some good fucking *_chords_*
👍
The lord: now, that, *that* is a goddamn chord
The Lord. Capital L.
such an underrated comment. this made my day
My wife was pregnant with our twin girls and during all the pregnancy there were many doubts about the health of the babies. At 36 weeks, after 2 days in the hospital, at midnight, my wife gave birth to 2 perfect babies. The day after I was with them in the hospital all day, barely went to the bathroom, didn't even eat. At night when I got in the car to go home this was the music playing, had to stop the car at the side of the road and cry my heart out...
🥹 damn. That’s exactly! What happened to me. We’ll sort of, my wife was in labor and I just got off at work at 1am and drove to the hospital with my earphones in, the wired ones 😂 and this song came on my shuffle as I ran so goddamn fast from the parking lot to the room. The nurses just said go go go follow the screams 😂. And walked in there and bam baby girl came out. It was like a freaking movie scene to me. I never ran so damn fast in my life. Hope those kids bring joy in life my friend.
Bless you all 😘♥️
😁
Congratulations man.
ftg
This is the most hard core of all the Hallelujah versions. It’s not just because of his vocal though. He chose a bell like Capo 6 to play it from the G position. The results are haunting. He chose gracious amounts of reverb and a classic Telecaster to master his style. You just don’t play like Buckley, he had something that possessed every note. Yet, what is most important, he teaches us how this song can and should be interpreted. I miss songs like this. The ones, no matter the version, inspire. I hope Buckley knows the impact.
Salute to you my friend. What a wonderful ride it’s been.
I play a little was working on this so wow was noticing his position and playing and the bell like sound..
I've done a cover myself,, Mikey Morales hallelujah 🙏🙏🙏
La palabra "inquietante" ha logrado calificar la emoción que me provoca la voz de Jeff, tan única...va del llanto a la ternura, por un borde filoso, entre muerte y resurrección. Indescriptible belleza, su interpretación.❤
@@mariaesterrodriguez2047 maria, he hecho un cover de la canción, está en mi canal, escribe, Mikey Morales aleluya 🙏🙏🙏 te bendiga
Went through terrible break up and this helped me heal
If this song isn't playing at my funeral...
I'm not going.
Hallelujah :)
Solid and totally understandable 😂
🙌
Amazing haha
LOL oh yeah!!!!
36k dislikes? You don't really care for music do yah?
Raiya Lynn no there not Christian I guess
Raiya Lynn lol
They may not be christians so they couldn't understand. I am also not a christian i had to read all meanings nd refernces to understand what the song truly means.
You don't need to be Christian or religious or spiritual to understand this beautiful and sad song
Raiya Lynn lol
1 guitar, 1 voice, 1 masterpiece!
yep!!!!!! never thought of it by this angle
This song was played when one of my fallen comrades was buried. It was the day I lost faith. But I still love the song.
I'm Sorry for your Losses of Comrades, The Pain and Frustration you must Feel . I understand in similar ways When my Dad / Close Friends were called Home ,when I still wanted to Be With them and thought they were Took To soon . I Pray the Holy Spirit Draws you Back and Somehow rekindles your Faith and Comforts you , knowing that you Will be with them again . Father God stills loves you and Wants you back , even though your Faith has been and is being Tested . Hold on To God and His undying Love for you , you will Be Glad you did in the End My Brother. We Don't understand a lot of Gods Plans and Ways . But Don't loose Hope . You are Loved more than you know . Be Blessed Brother 🙏
we have faith in u brother rok the day
🙏🙏🙏
😢
My brother took his own life... its the hardest thing ive ever gone through in my life....he used to play this in his truck when he drove me to school..now i drive his truck and play this for him. I love you bro...
God Bless and Keep you always..May your brother Rest In Peace -
Sorry man. That's a tough thing to go through. Your brother is in heaven looking down on you.
Oh my Lord. I am so sorry. Two of my siblings committed suicide and the darkness never really goes away, does it? Bless you.
So sad when someone we love feels they have no other option. As long as you remember him....He still lives.
The hardest thing I had to deal with was losing my baby brother, who also took his own life. Took at least 3 years to have some kind of feeling of “normal” again. The ironic part is that it teaches you how powerful and deep your love for a brother can be, after they are gone from your life...
You don’t ever search this song looking for joy, it’s usually looking for peace. I hope you all find peace my friends
Amen tony ,peace is love🌎🕊💜🛐
That is profound...I cried reading your lovely comment...xo
Same to you, this song is a savior.
Well said brother.
Where is the peace? Read the lyrics - it's a perverse and twisted song. If you find peace...more power to you.
Question: relay one line of this song where you find "peace". Just one line cause I've missed it for decades.
Vulnerability is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah. When we're brave with our hearts - when we have the courage to love and hope, to try, fail, and try again - the result of our daring isn't a victory march as much as it is a quiet sense of liberation mixed with a little battle fatigue
The truth beautifully expressed…
You’re comment is resonating just like this performance. At least with me.
I don't know where you are Jeff right now..... But you have created something with your voice so peaceful , so undying and eternal.. you're gonna stay with us forever.. Peace to all.... Love from India...❤️
He's dead. Drowned 1997.
@@FundedFuturesTrader damn man.... so many good ones dead now
🥰
Cohen and Buckley are together now singing this incredible song side by side
Diego Martin Pintos Urzagaste 😢❤️✌🏻️
:-(
You can believe what you want, I will not put you down for that, but until you can prove to me that death is the ultimate end I will continue to believe in the afterlife.
Nice thought, Buckley together with his father, waiting for the Master, who finally arrived to sing along with them
Homer I am not a believer but its too bad people need to make fun of people who think differently than them. You may be right, no one knows. Ignore the idiots.
Beautiful.
RIP Jeff Buckley
RIP Leonard Cohen
Tgunzz ❤
Tgunzz was just thinking the same thing.. It's rare that a cover beats the original but I think I'm this case it truly does.. RIP
Totally agree. The Jeff Buckley version of this is unbeatable.
That's it for me 2016, and world, I'm out
Tgunzz yes rip😵
I was lucky enough to see Jeff live twice in Australia before he passed. I have struggled to listen to this song for so long because it was used at my brother’s funeral in 2002 and took a totally different emotional meaning. But I’m back on board and feeling the comfort instead of the complete devastation. Such emotional artistry. This man would’ve been one of the greatest artists of all time had he lived through the decades.
I hope you find the ,contentment and solace you deserve after the loss you have suffered. Jeff Buckley was a true genius. With a voice only God could have granted him. .
I was working with my father at a construction site when I heard this song. We sat silently and listened this on a beautiful summer day in 2014. Now I always cry when I hear it because my father has been dead for 7 years ago...
🤗🥺
This is worthy, there is no shame in this, this is an ordinary human manifestation... Time has passed, everything has been covered with white snowdrifts, we just have to live, create our own destiny, create with our own hands, and live a little for ourselves)))
I had just been transferred from the icu to cancer floor, the sun was streaming though the curtains and I put on the ipod my brother loaned me. This song came on and I felt like I had been given a second chance. I cried tears of joy. I was 25 then.
I'm 40 (and cancer free) now and still cry every time I hear this song.
this is by far the most beautiful piece of story i've read in a comment section. may you continue living and prospering.
Awesome!!
Thats great news Jeff!
Stay positive.
Everything becomes a blessing with these kind of close shaves. 25 yrs since my first case, 9 years since a different group altogether case of cancer and grateful to see my grandchildren grow up. 🙏Many blessings to you
AMEN. PRAISE GOD
Amen to that brother! Stay blessed
RIP Leonard Cohen. Without you, this song would not exist. Thank you.
well said.
RIP Jeff Buckley too
Leonard cohenÄ
damn right man. RIP Jeff Buckley as well. Without you, this song would not exist. Thank you.
So true
Whenever I'm in the mood to cry or smile, I come back to this song.
One of the most beautiful, heartfelt renditions of this song. I think it's the best rendition ever sung.
It was the first. Sadly, Jeff Buckley passed away far too young. This is his gift to all of us.
Please check out K.D. Langs version 😊❤
@@perrylefko6524 I believe that Leonard Cohen sang it first. He (Cohen) also wrote it.
I don't have a sad story to tell.
I'm just here to enjoy the song.
me too
“I don’t have a sad story to tell. I’m just here to enjoy the song,” is probably the most moving line I’ve heard in a long time. Thank you
@California Guy we do indeed **** the right song helps in times of trouble and sadness **** which we all experience on life's journey ****
This is UA-cam. That is not allowed. We need some deep story that connects you to this song.
@@77JMW Written by Leonard Cohen - took him 5 years and originally had 80 verses.....
My dad loved when I sang this song, one day he recorded me singing it and then he played it on the car radio on our way home. My dad passed away last year, he was a doctor and he died from covid19. I miss him so much.
Be grateful you shared that love. Mine passed from Covid as well, and I have no feelings about it. It was a lost relationship. I wasn't even sure there was anything that could kill the miserable, mean mfer. There was.
I'm so sorry for your loss x
Hello, Carla. I'm a pretty old granny (63 I think, without doing the math :-) but your comment struck me a bit. I hope you have friends and family who will reach out to you about losing your dad. My dad was also the best in the world. His name is Nino and he did some amazing things. I can tell that your dad did too. Goodnight, O Sweet Of Heart.
RIP
Sorry for your loss, be strong
Whoever reads this... I hope you find happiness, and love and learn to forgive and forget. Our lives are so short... please try to be happy as much as you can: in a butterfly, in the way the sun warms up your face, the way a small child smiles back at you at the supermarket queue, a hug from a friend. Please do not take them from granted. Ever.
I miss you, Jeff, you'll never be forgotten. By millions.
Sincerely, a struggling Argentinian English professor. (16/3/24)
Nice Words 😢, thank you for this Words, god Bless you All
Muchas gracias. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Whomever needs to hear this: You are beloved. What a weird yet fantastic life we live! Somebody, somewhere is better off having known you.
Life is a tenuous string that we have little to no control of. If you have listened to this heavenly rendition then your life has been worth something.
Jeff was utterly unique and brilliant. Listen to music and turn it up LOUD. Kiss your partner, tell your siblings and parents that you love them. We are only here for an annoyingly short space of time - it's important that you tell them all how you feel.
I wish you all good fortune and that you continue to listen to top-drawer music like this for the rest of your lives. Educate your children with these immaculately beautiful songs.
Peace and love ❤
Your words came at exactly the right time. Thank you ❤
Everyone's telling their sad stories, but all I have on my damn mind is Shrek

Me too lol
Shrek is love Shrek is life so the legendary saying goes

This was my mum‘s funeral song and I haven’t listen to it in 11 years because it’s hurt so much, but today I found the courage to. I broke down crying but I’m glad I did.
Sending you love.
god bless you!! you are a brave warrior in heaven! and so is your mother!
You made it ! I'm genuinely proud of you. Sending you peace and quiet, I hope you're alright

This is a love song
What kind of love? All the kinds.
Still listening to this beautiful man sing this dec 28th 2023 ❤
8 yrs ago i had to bury my 7yr old son. I would hold and rock him to this song as it played low and he would reach up, touch my cheek and fall asleep. it was our thing up till he was 3. this played at the church during his funeral. i broke down as I am now. Fly high Micah and sing along with Jeff in Heaven.
God bless your son
sorry about your son. RIP..
A precious and painful memory, Michael. Thank you for sharing.
Heartbroken story. May his soul rest in peace and you find consolation in this cruel world Michael.
I just broke after reading this and won't stop crying...
Man.......... you can physically hear the emotions in his voice
lazy0nara that is what makes me like this song so much, you can just feel his struggle through love with his emotional vocals
I love Jeffs' version of this song the best but I don't understand these mean and ugly remarks people shoot back and fourth to each other here.
almost leaves me weepy...
well, he was suffering from a bipolar disorder
gorgeous man, lovely voice. my favourite version. hope he's happy in Heaven.
Aways loved the "wow" at the end.
It was haunting hearing this on the radio when he passed. Heaven needed another angel for the choir 😇 👼
The beginning sounds like he was trying to find the secret chord that David played, that pleased the Lord.
And than he found it and the song commenced
Gsus?
This Is The One"
@@Laocoon283 so the secret chord is C lol
eacaraxe I feel like I was the only one who got your joke, I hope others will too lol
Fighting cancer so I can stick around for my 5 kiddos. After every treatment when I feel like I have no more fight left in my tired pain racked body, when all I can do is lay and my soul aches for release…I play this song again and again until it leads me back to my inner strength. And I keep fighting. Love is not a victory march, sometimes it is fucking HARD, sometimes it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah.
You keep up that fight Susanna x sending all health, love and happiness vibes to you and your 5 kiddos! Stay strong for them my lovely x
Don’t let it whip ya’
Vires Honestas
Sending love, prayers to you and your kids!
You can do it. Good luck, and take care.
I don't care who you are, when you hear this there is an emotion, a memory, a feeling this song brings up. I hope all is well with all of you. I am glad you are feeling this.
It will be, up there, for generations, and beyond, to come. Thank you, Sir❤
Me and my friends used to joke about what funeral song we wanted and we all picked this. But when my pal Rossi passed away unexpectedly, we brought a sound system into the church and for 6 and a half minutes this song brought such emotion to us all. RIP Rossi ❤
Died a rich man with friends.
This gave me chills. May you always find comfort here. ❤
Nice choice, then I'm having Monster Mash
On my funeral list too ❤

Been coming here for ten years to purge my tears and my soul.....God Bless all who do.....
Lol i havent been coming for ten years but it has purged some tears out of me its just so beautiful and my Love for the Lord causes me to well up with emotion when i think about all the grace mercy love and deliverance hes had over my life im thankful and in deep gratitude
Word
Praise the Lord. Amen.
You get to put away the stoicism, the macho personality, the bravado, and you allow yourself to purge, as you stated so eloquently. You stop posing, pretending everything is alright, for just a few hours. And it gives you strength, a renewed purpose perhaps, to push through another stretch. And for anyone that's quick to judge, it's no different than reaching for a bottle, or trying to find solace at the bottom of a baggie, prescription vial, romantic partner, etc. 2020 will forever be engraved in our memories for obvious, painful reasons, but for some, this was just another shyte fuckin' year. Peace and strength be within you all.
Hallelujah
This was my brother's favorite song. We played it at his memorial service. I listen to it when I miss him.
aw sorry to hear bro this song reminds me of my grandparents who past away three years in a row keep strong
+Alisha Noel Sorry to hear that man!
He'll rest in peace forever.

+Alisha Noel I am sure he would appreciate it :)
My twin brother committed suicide 9 years ago. This song was the last thing he posted on his Facebook feed. I'm pretty sure he's rest in peace now.
I'm sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace ♥️
I am so so sorry. My younger brother ended his life. Took me ten years to let it go. I hope you have and will live the beautiful life he could not. Sending you my love.
I think this will last forever ❤
Hey Stranger : You have a great taste in music .
Thanks, you too!

Thanks Hey Stranger you too man
ur awsome thanks!
You too, brother. Stay cool, man.
In an interview with Jeff in 1994, which sheds light on what truly influenced him musically, he says: "Words are really beautiful, but they’re limited. Words are very male, very structured. But the voice is the netherworld, the darkness, where there’s nothing to hang onto. The voice comes from a part of you that just knows and expresses and is. I need to inhabit every bit of lyric, or else I can’t bring the song to you-or else it’s just words.’”
So not what you say but how you say it. Performers artists have to be able to evoke an emotional response from the listener or viewer or else they are not talented.

@@AnnaLVajda exactly!
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah 😢
For all my youngsters reading please listen. I've searched for years to be able to explain the feelings of watching yourself and someone else fall in love. From the mesmerizing beginning to the learning of each other's ways to the small debates becoming larger arguments to slowly watching the person that means more to you than the world itself fall out of love with you. A pain you can't sleep off, a hurt that never goes away, a pit that no matter what you put in it it never fills. This song......my God this song. This song along with Jeff's breath taking performance is the closest you can get to experience without experience. I come here to cry. Don't be me. Live, love, hold on, and cherish. This world today makes fuckin up seem cool. It's not. It'll just make you another fool coming to this song to cry
Respectfully take your own advice and stop the martyrdom. I would like to think you’ve moved on to the next stage of your life jumping into the unknown. It’s scary and unfamiliar but I hope you are able to. If not thank you for your comment I hope you find happiness god bless
@@jarcuuuble5819 much appreciated. But dont mistake warning for martyrdom. And thanks
Listening to this at 3 am in the morning, crying and thinking about my life. How I wanna live it to the fullest and don’t wanna regret anything but at the same time, it’s so hard to just even exist. As an overthinker, life can be too much sometimes.
Absolutely! I'm a chronic overthinker and always have been. It allows me to be insightful and very aware of myself and the life around me, but it also causes me to be anxious, indecisive and overly critical of myself. The concept "you are your own worst critic" is especially difficult when you're the type who always delves so deep into all of your thoughts...
Don’t worry 😉 your not alone ! 👊
Hassan I am a believer in fate,everyday we turn over a pack of cards and what’s on them is what happens in our lives, we can’t really do much about it my friend apart from survive and learn , peace brother
Work at letting go and finding peace in the little things. Only thing that really matters is family nothing else

The epitome of passion..im blessed just to hear this.
He put a part of his soul into this song and it will live always.
So true
Beautifully said …🌹
Grazie 🙏
He most certainly did and not too many years later, I do believe wholeheartedly that he swam into the river in Memphis, TN fully clothed knowing that he was not going to come back to land. There was no drugs or alcohol in his system. Some people are just born to die young, but damn, the world lost an incredibly talented and soulful musician and a very deep person when he passed away.

That guitar solo at the intro is just too damn beautiful. Sounds so sad yet peaceful at the same time.
Funny I was thinking it would be beautiful at a wedding.
My partner of 13 years loved this song, listening to this allows me to cry my heart out as he passed away yesterday. I feel as if someone cut a piece of my heart out and wonder if I will ever feel normal again. Paul was an amazing person who was kind, loving and compassionate. He was a wonderful singer too. I'll miss his voice, sense of humor, hugs and our road trips.
Prayers
so sorry for your loss
So sorry for your loss. Stay strong my friend
Oh my god, I’m so sorry for your loss. Can’t even imagine the pain you must be in. I know right now it feels like it will never go away, but I hope in time you’re able to find peace because I’m sure it would hurt him to see you shattered. Sending you love and prayers for strength, comfort, and healing. ❤️

This song makes you love and hate life at the same time
Well, that's just it isn't it. A constant struggle. Would you have it any other way? If you're life is going well, help a friend. If you're lucky enough to have friends who's lives are well too, celebrate. And if you're down, we will help you.
Life is an ebb and flow between pain and peace.

agreed!! This is my favorite version. I did a cover of this song with my sister if you want to check it out on my channel!
This is a cover

And love is not a victory march, it's a cold and its a broken hallelujah, best line :')
Alexander Waters , Bravo.

One of the most beautiful songs on Earth
I catch my breath and my eyes fill with tears every. damn. time.
I lost my wife to kidney disease back in August of this year. This song was what allowed her to find peace in the fact that her illness was terminal and helped through hospice and gave her comfort in knowing that was no reason to fear death. I listen to it when I want to feel close to her. She was and still is my soul and my center. I love you forever and always Selene.
Jaime... I have been dealing with EsRD for last three years. Its hard. And it only ends one way, unfortunately. But thank you for sharing your Selene. I hope when I'm gone I'm missed like that.
Your love will always keep you close Jaime 💕💕love has no end 💕💕
I am so sorry your wife died from a terrible disease and suffered. I love this song also, never tire of it because the notes bring me joy, as they did your wife.
Good man, nothing anyone can say or do but tell you're doing the right thing and you're a good human
I’m So Sorry for your loss 💕 That’s a terrible thing to happen but at least you know she isn’t in any pain or discomfort now. She will Always be with you 💜
Today is 24 years since Jeff left us. Will always he missed. RIP Jeff Buckley!
Rip:(
It's a big loss, but his music never dies
5 days ago... How strange i read his name in a fiction book 5 days ago and the books main character i jst found out played jeff in the movie about his life.. Been listening to him on repeat all week. So many beautiful songs
The Mississippi River took this legendary singer in an untimely fashion. There are glimpses of his presence throughout the city of Memphis. ❤️
How’d he die?
Pure Soul! Soothed my pain again, Mr Buckley! Wherever you are, Rest In Peace!
Beautiful timeless classic!
This song was played on the streets of Dubrovnik after my grandmother died in her homeland. It was like sent by her.😔
Zao mi je :(

Listening while tears are flowing for my son. A parent shouldn't outlive your child. Justin Rest in Peace. I love you, Dad.
@superstuff11: So sorry for your loss.
Wherever you are in this world, my friend, we are with you. It's a broken hallelujah
may he rest easy
So sorry for your loss. Hope this song bring you some peace.

He’s lying. Notice he hasn’t defended himself?
This was the song my mom played for me when I came to after a suicide attempt, and she told me "please don't make me play this again". Love her, and to everyone out there, it may be cliche but it truly does get better
:)
❤️
I don't know you, but I am Glad You are still with us
It is better to be a soldier if you want to die you also help your country.
❤️❤️❤️
The BEST version of this song I ever heard.
It's truly the most beautiful rendition of the song. Especially because of the ligh
tning. The idea with the lightning shows the true nature of the song; the dark and the light. Love is not all light it encompasses all...the dark and the light. I think this song is misinterpreted often. It's about seeing the good and bad and marching on.
He’s not dead , God just wanted to hear him live.
Very beautiful said!
Whoa! I was just commenting the very same thing in one of his other songs on UA-cam.
🌸🌸🌸🌸
But he died tho
How stupid...
It's ok to cry listening to this.
This deserves WAY MORE likes
Yer goddam right, friend.
Yep
It's ok to cry
Why this song always makes me cry ='(
After many years then I heard this beautiful song on the radio. Just had to stop and shazam it and play it again on UA-cam. Thank you UA-cam and thank you Jeff.
I literally am unable to hear this version without crying.
This intro is like a poetry made with music notes. So beautiful.
Makes Me Wanna Cry Every Time :(
Agreed 100%
It is beautiful poetry
That's because that's exactly what it is. Check out who wrote this song and their other work.
What a fantastic description 🥹
Jeff Buckley (17 November 1966- 29 Mai 1997)... we miss you...
He was 31 years old? Damn
AceYew 30. He drowned in a extension of the Mississippi River in Memphis.
David Horgan eventhough still young. Why should we lose many talents so early
one of the most beautiful things that humanity has offered us is this cover of the late Jeff buckley, the lyrics of Leonard Cohen covered by an angel's voice that has only passed through our world to leave us one of the most beautiful interpretations. it's when we see this kind of work that we regain hope in the humanity of peace and gentleness. Thanks jeff, Cohen, lenon.... and all the people who make this world a better place for others.
I have listened to this song about 200 times since Friday and it still gives me goosebumps every time. This is the most beautiful version of this song ever
