Jeff Buckley is a phenomenal artist that we lost way too soon. This version is beautiful!
I love this version the best.
Totally Agree 💯! Sooo Sad Jeff's gone....so Talented! ❤️😭
Amen to that. So tragic to lose a talented young artist so young. RIP Jeff.
You gotta check out Jeff doing the emotional song " LAST GOODBYE" RIP JEFF.
Amen
Perhaps the best cover of "Hallelujah" ever.....
Agreed, he was so special!!! Gone to soon!
*The best cover
I like 2 covers better than this one. Myles Kennedy and the clovertons covering this song
It's easily the best.
Are just ignoring pentatonix
The most phenomenal voice. The Grace album is perfection R.I.P Jeff
Jeff Buckley - "Lilac Wine" ruclips.net/video/IRfhAIbD5o0/видео.html
Buckley’s version makes me cry every. Single. Time. It’s so gorgeous.
Preach! 🎶🎼😊
Jeff Buckley was Tim Buckley's son and just as amazing as his dad. I think he had a 4 octave vocal range and an ethereal emotional touch on the guitar. Sadly missed.
100%
Definietly not 7 octaves
@@everychannel1025 just checked 4 octaves, my apologies I thought I had read 7 octaves previously. I shall change the figure
@@everychannel1025 what do 7 Octaves sound like
@@lasthope3237that would be the whole piano and then some
Leonard Cohen wrote this. He is one of those artists that is known for writing profound music and then people covering it a lot. He's like more of a songwriter, but he did make records and sing and stuff it's just most people know the covers more. But he's one of the best to ever do it.
I love Leonard’s writing, but his songs and music don’t appeal to me. At least not the ones I bothered to look up. This and “Dance Me To the end Of Love” in particular which I found through The Civil Wars who have an incredible cover of it. Nearly as good as this
Leonard cohen’s version is still the best. The song is about people who are broken and aren’t perfect, so it’s appropriate that a guy who can’t really sing sings it.
So many people who cover this just don’t seem to get the point of the song. You can FEEL that in how they sing it and that is just a turn off. This version is horrible. The more amateur you are as a singer the more authentically you can perform this song. Try to sing it with musical bells and whistles - as in this cover - and you’ve completely killed the point of the song. This cover is just sound - without the emotion or meaning of the original song. It’s dead on arrival.
This is also the ‘non-cohen’ version. It has additional lyrics - and those spoil what the song is about. This is the Brandi Carlyle version and it’s awful. It’s so off mark what the song is trying to convey.
I love Cohen’s song ‘everybody knows’ - wry humour at its best.
@@tileux Leonard Cohen said when he heard KD Lang sing it, he heard how it was meant to be sang for the first time ever.
@@tileux actually the extra lyrics were Cohen’s from different versions. Not sure what song you just heard though ..because that was beautiful version of an otherwise quirky song.
Don’t forget John Cale’s version
It’s no exaggeration to say that every day, I think about how much we missed out on when we lost Jeff Buckley. He was a rare, rare talent. ‘Grace’ is a once in a lifetime album. Please check it out.
Facts!
I heard that Grace is great. I gave it away.
Well said, Jeff was a unique talent. Taken way too soon
Such a tragedy. He was such a talent.
Jeff Buckley was on the verge of something huge when the river took him.
The Grace album is phenomenal and full of heartbreaking lyrics.
Lover you should have come over and Last Goodbye are my favourite ones. Killer lyrics!
Just to be clear that's Jeff Buckley playing that beautiful guitar, while singing. Sublime.
Of couse he did not play the guitar while recording the vocals but he did play guitar on the album and live for sure.
@@petrilampela on the music video he did play guitar while singing in the studio..
@@rickg8015 Music videos are always done separately after the studio recordings. Even if they seem to show the artist at a recording studio. Usually a vocal track consists of several little cuts that are recorded over and over, one song can take days. It would make no sense to pose for music video at the same time.
@@petrilampela this was before digital, and it's entirely (and most likely) possible he played/sang simultaneously while being recorded via analog.
@@paradiddle5150 The recording process is still exactly the same whether it's analog or digital. I know it's possible to record the guitar and vocals simultaneously but it's _very_ uncommon. And highly unlikely in Jeff's case because he was a perfectionist in the studio. We know he didn't play guitar while recording the vocals to songs like "Grace" so I don't know why he would make an exception with Hallelujah.
I love Jeff Buckley. My favorite songs are Lover You Should Have Come Over and The Last Goodbye
Both are my favourite ones too. Brilliant heartbreaking lyrics.
Yeah. Mine is Grace ❤️ but there is magic 🪄 in all his music. He is very special
Try Last Goodbye. Jeff was a true artist. Exceptional vocalist, guitar player & performer. R. I. P.
This song make me cry. I'm in a bad place. Beautiful song
I'm sorry you're not doing great 😔 Things will get better.
Hugs 🤗
I've cried many times to this song. That means you're human. Sending love and positive vibes from one human to another.
❤️🙏
I hope your doing better. , you wana talk ever hit me il get back to you .( if im asleep)
Stay strong brother
You need to see a live version of Buckley playing this.
Should have played the live version, spine tingling. Jeffs album Grace is a masterpiece, I play it on a regular basis
@@dellafenton2417 I haven't heard it - I must check it out, I love this version sooooo much!!!
Buckley is an absolute gem. You should definitely check out his cover of Bob Dylan’s ‘Mama you’ve been on my mind’
A true great
R.I.P
Jeff Buckley had one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard.
THE best version of Hallelujah ever....Jeff Buckley was otherworldly....RIP
This song can elicit tears whenever I hear it....the single Tele & Jeff's voice....just wow
The version in the movie Shrek is also a cover, by John Cale (which is my favorite version). For some reason, if you buy the Shrek soundtrack, you get a different cover, by Rufus Wainwright. The Original is by Leonard Cohen.
Grace, Mojo Pin, Lilac Wine, Lover You Should've Come Over... Buckley was SO good. The whole live Metro performance (Chicago) is pure gold.
Mojo Pin is fantastic. Very intense. What a tragedy he died so young.
I was at the show, and hung in the Smartbar afterwards.......I'm mid 50s , born and raised here in Chicago and at that time I was the ops mgr of the 2d largest record store in the city...a mile down the street from Wrigley. Jeff would pop in the store often when in town. I saw him live a bunch of times - but the Metro show was otherworldly- let me just say this - "more babies were most likely conceived that evening after the show then at any other moment in Chicago music history!!!!" ...When I saw JB play live I always felt this sadness and I would tear up , I'm bipolar2 and suffer with hereditary severe depression and also I believe I can foresee events before they occur .....I felt Cobains death days before it was reported by the news ....I felt that Jeff was a gift to us for only a brief moment in linear time thru the unforgiving universe we spin and swirl thru. Just an artist that no one will truly understand because he was with us so briefly ....his loss hurts as much , or even more then Kurt's and Cornells because this man was taken from us ...he didn't give his existence away.
"Grace" live at Chicago by Jeff Buckley is a MUST.
Personally, I'd go with the BBC live version, but you can't go wrong.
Last Goodbye for me
@@samuelmregister BBC Late Show version is much better than the Chicago rendition.
He holds 5hat note while playing he guitar. Simply amazing.
This version is the best one of all, hands down for me. RIP Jeff, you are missed.
This song gets me every time. Powerful lyrics that I don't fully understand, but my heart does.
9:32 Lex you have no idea how incredible his voice was. But you did noticed this "jewel box" at your very first listening.
Best version of this song ever. Period. What he does vocally is so difficult to do. While playing masterfully under it. Amazing.
Jeff’s version of this song is by far my favorite. His vocals and guitar playing are sublime.
Sooooo glad you guys did this. One of my all-time favorites. Leonard Cohen wrote and did it first, but Jeff def put his stank on it. I’m at total peace when I listen to this. What a loss…
Jeff My favorite, beautiful song. But I wish more people reacted to Grace or Lover should have come over. He’s such a talented musician.
Jeff Buckley "lover,you should've come over" X 😊
Jeff Buckley does a live version of "I shall be released" that is absolutely Killer. Check it out..
That 42 second pause - and the beginning - is Jeff letting his guitar sing. His own voice is amazing, but his mastery of the guitar really shines here. It’s so clean, so controlled, so emotionally and technically complex…it just sounds like he’s floating on a cloud. I feel two voices throughout this song and it seems like they are waltzing together. IMO that feeling is a testament to the amazing musician that Jeff was.
So glad you’ve chosen this version! For me, this will always be the only one.
The beauty of both his voice and his guitar work combined is on another level. He’s legitimately amazing.
This is the version that really sent this song into the stratosphere
Almost brings a tear to my eye when I hear him sing this...
Leonard Cohen's masterpiece. Supposedly over 80 verses. We're lucky if we hear four. Truly beautiful song that makes a beautiful statement.
The story is that John Cale went to a show of his at a club and asked if he could use this song on his album. Leonard sent him scores of pages with lyrics. John Cale did such an amazing job arranging it that Leonard Cohen adopted it. What you hear now is written by Leonard Cohen and arranged by John Cale.
@@matthawkins8880 His official video is pretty trippy.
@@matthawkins8880 Buckley’s version is based on Cale’s; that was Jeff’s favourite.
Jeff Buckley is a generational talent. His album Grace is nothing but incredible songs.
It's simply the best bitter sweet song of the past century. Songs in 6/8 time tend to fall into this emotional range, but this takes it to another level.
I love " song to the siren" by his dad Tim Buckley, it always gives me goose bumps. The Cocteau twins also do an amazing version.
Elizabeth Fraser from the Cocteau Twins....also did an unreleased duet with Jeff Buckley
Jeff's vocal stylings were so unique, mainly because he fashioned his own stylings from female jazz vocalists. Definately check out his song "Everybody Here Wants You", from his post-mortem album "To My Sweetheart, The Drunk". Amazing range! RIP Jeff, we miss you!
@Nathan Webb That song features, arguably, Jeff’s greatest vocal performance. Minor correction on the album title, though: Sketches For My Sweetheart The Drunk.
@@MojoPin1983 you're right, i got the name wrong (been years since ive actually had the physical copy in my hands). I still remember hearing the news of his death...was devastating. I'm just about 5 hours north of Memphis & used to go down there for parties during that time. Was a real shocker.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.....
This cover of Leonard Cohen's song is a cultural golden nugget.
One of the most powerful performances ever, Jeff was an unbelievable talent and it brings me to tears.
I will keep pounding the proverbial table in future cover song streams for Buckley's cover of 'Lilac Wine'. Doesn't get nearly enough appreciation in my opinion.
Love his Lilac Wine. Well done sir!
The really stunning fact of this song was that it was recorded live. He was playing guitar and singing and he did so while on stage. It’s one of the most incredible performances, I think, ever captured.
This is THE version most people heard on the radio, especially in college towns like here in East Lansing, Michigan.
Leonard Cohen wrote and recorded the original version in 1984. Shrek used John Cale’s cover from 1991 and Buckley’s version was recorded***(released, not recorded*** in 2007 and he said Cale inspired his version, so that’s why the Hallelujah drop in Shrek sounds similar to Buckley’s. I remember seeing a Joh Legend interview and he described Buckley’s version, “as near perfect as you can get.”
Jeff Buckley died in 1997, how the hell did he record this 10 years later?
@@warwickhunt released.
nah Jeff recorded in 1993 and released it 1994.
Being a lifelong classic rock fan, I'm a huge fan of bands like The Beatles, The Who, Pink Floyd and most of all Led Zeppelin. The latter I consider the greatest rock band ever. But Jeff's album "Grace" is in my opinion one of the greatest albums ever created. Some people might not get it, but if you do it's one of those life changing moments.
No no no no youngins 🙉! I fell in love with Jeff Buckley's version of this song in 2001! A few years after it came out. It's magical. Jeff Buckley is magical. Thanks for reacting!
As with Eva Cassidy's version of Over The Rainbow, this isn't a song to simply be listened to and enjoyed, It's a song to be experienced.
It's been a while since I listened to this. Every time I do, I am amazed at how beautiful this song is.
Jeff's rendition of this song is the best. His voice is phenomenal. Gone way too soon. RIP Jeff Buckley
I went into this reaction concerned y’all didn’t know it was a cover, (since many of the others had the original writer in parentheses.)
I absolutely love most of Leonard Cohen’s music, but this is one of those songs that had a whole second life with Jeff Buckley.
This song is one I absolutely recommend everyone READ, (or at least listen,) to the lyrics of at least once, because so many people bring their own assumptions from having heard the word in church songs to this song.
*One from Shrek was a cover by Rufus Wainwright, (I believe.)
it's the connection between the singer and the guitar playing that makes the best version of this song.
been covered over 300 times. kd lang also does a killer cover of this too.
Finally folks, jeff buckley is a genius
A rare cover better than the original. THE definitive version for me. Might be time for you to check out Neil Diamond, almost any of his songs will do.
Diamond! Oh yeah!
Jeff is the singer and also played the guitar on this recording. His voice is incredible.
Lex is right on this one. This is very different to the Leonard Cohen original and I can't believe anybody who has heard it could confuse the two. Cohen's voice is the voice of a poet speaking/singing his words with a real rasp. Jeff Buckley has a melodic, gentle very expressive and emotional voice accompanying his equally gentle and melodic guitar.
He drowned in the Mississippi taking an impromptu swim, when the wash from a barge hit him. He was working on his second studio album at the time of his death.
My favourite track by him is "Forget Her".
Leonard Cohen wrote the song and you need to hear his version. Jeff's version is excellent though and I understand how folks say "He made it his own". By the way this is off of the only album Jeff released in his lifetime "Grace". It's a phenomenal album you need to hear. Another incredible version of the song is by K.D. Lang at the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. She sang it live and it's a legendary performance!
Sixteen
Jeff Buckley was phenomenal! You guy’s really need to check him out live, 👍
Just came across your videos yesterday and I must have watched at least 35 of them already! I love the reactions!!!!! Keep them coming
The live from Bataclan version is the best recording of Jeff doing this I know.
I saw him live in 95, doing this in a converted church in Edinburgh Scotland, It was a small stage and I was directly in front of him in the front row.
Always nice to hear this song, but who hasn't covered it. Jimi Hendrix wrote a song about a groupie called Little Wing, Eric Clapton did an amazing cover of it, with Sheryl Crow and David Sanborn.
I thought Hendrix little wing was a song for his mother? A dream that he had
@@stevenconnor4221 it depends on who you ask. Jimi couldn't say publicly that it was about a young white girl that he felt bad about taking advantage of.
@@joedonlewis9820 If it was, I think the colour of the girl is irrelevant. Anyway here is what I base my proof on;
biography Room Full Of Mirrors where it says that Jimi admitted to his brother that it was about their mother.
@@stevenconnor4221 it wasn't irrelevant in 1967, and if it was a groupie she was probably under age. Hindrix said in an interview that it was the personification of the scene at the Monterey Pop Festival. You had to be careful what you said back then. Still do, more than ever.
@@joedonlewis9820 it was before my time, I am only going on biographical information. I would have thought the media would have picked up on it and been all over it. Like Jerry Lee Lewis marrying his underage cousin? But I'm led to believe was concentual in his state. Again I don't know going on what I have read.
As a proud son of Montreal, I can tell you that the original of "Hallelujah" is by Leonard Cohen of Montreal, one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. Jeff Buckley got the ball rolling with his version of this beautiful song, and it has since been covered by hundreds of well-known musicians. One of the best covers is by another Canadian, k.d. lang. She will stun you with what her voice can do to elevate "Hallelujah" to the high heavens.
Two numbers that must be first heard only as sung by Leonard Cohen are the original 1967 album versions of "Suzanne" and "The Sisters of Mercy". Accept no substitutes, as the saying goes.
One of the most beautiful voices ever
This song, and this particular cover, murders my heart. I know what a cold and broken hallelujah is.
Lex describing Jeff singing @9:30 . Ah yeah Lex , I think you nailed it , spot on ! 🤣
The secret sacred chord is "Om". This is one of the better covers of the Cohen treasure. Loved.
Better cover? This is far better than the original.
@@ChrisTian-rm7zm And your point is?
@@MisterWondrous "Ommmmm"
@@ChrisTian-rm7zm Mani padme hummmmm... :)
Best cover ever.
The way he performed this song, he just took you by the heart and played with it.
Buckley takes this Leonard Cohen masterpiece to a whole new level.
The tone of his guitar… the tone of his voice and the mastery with which he projects his voice while performing his own take on the chord progression… his particular choice of verses from the original…. This is THE quintessential version of this song. He has a live performance in which he says he didn’t write it, but wished he did.
@cjonesufc Your final reference might be mistaken with a comment that Jeff made before playing Lilac Wine, during the Chicago concert.
@@MojoPin1983 I did paraphrase, but Live in Chicago is where I got the quote from.
Majestic. So calming.
I can’t even hear his version without it bringing tears to my eyes, the lyrics are so incredibly deep, a mere man could not have written those lyrics without help from the Spirit
This is such an unbelievable song....FANTASTIC!
Isn't it amazing that even to this day so many songs from the Shreck movies are still remembered?
No one does Jeff. Wot an awesome talent. Check out the songs Grace (live version) or last goodbye or another cover lilac wine. His vocals and guitar will blow your mind!
Check out any of the live at Chicago stuff. Mind-blowing. 🤯
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
The finger picking here is really something special too! Beautiful song and beautiful artist! R.I.P. Jeff 🙏❤️
Awesome reaction guys 💯
I'd recommend Leonard Cohen himself too. You want it Darker , Everybody knows, Ring the bells, Dance me to the end of Love, Suzanne, his lyrics are dumfoundingly gorgeous.
Love this song!
The BEST version every. His voice is amazing and carries his passion in a strong but gentle way.
Awesome..havent heard this in a while..just have to stop and listen..thx for this
No matter how many times I've heard Jeff's version I always get tingles. Timeless music.
I saw Jeff Buckley in concert in Melbourne at the Palais Theatre in 1996 I think it was .... At the time I didn't realise how fortunate I was to catch him live ....
I love Buckley’s cover but I think everyone should her Leonard Cohen do his song, the Live in London version.
My favourite singer ever! 'Lover, You Should've Come Over' will blow your mind, it's truly a masterpiece.
I remember the first time I ever heard this song, I was alone in my room with a single candle going. I watched the flame dance about while being totally encapsulated by this song. The magic still hits me everytime I hear this song
Heartbreakingly, Jeff Buckley died after going swimming in the middle of the night in the Mississippi River after he had recorded his last record with his band. Apparently recording engineers and producers who are from that area warned them they should not enter the water at night( or day ) because the currents were too strong. Jeff Buckley was found miles down the Mississippi days later. I was blessed to witness him live prior to this incident at First Avenue Minneapolis Minnesota . The concert left me stunned. Rest in peace Jeff .
Thank you thank you thank you! One of my top 10 all-time favorite performers
Epic record by an Epic artist that passed way too soon… Thank you for the upload!
Wow I totally missed that you had done this reaction. Its one of my favourite versions of a very deep song.
Love your family. God bless
This song has literally been covered hundreds of times. Only a few have actually had any success. The version from the movie Shrek was done by John Cale, but the version that ended up on the soundtrack was done by Rufus Wainwright.
What's interesting to me is that Leonard Cohen (who wrote the song) wrote dozens of verses, so the artists who subsequently covered the song (and did their homework) had several options for the song. Jeff Buckley's version is actually my favorite cover of the song. He kept it simple, so his voice became an added instrument. Jeff's cover was actually released about a decade after his death. His passing was indeed a very sad day for the music world.
grace by him is one of the best vocal performances of all time particularly the live version on the tonight show
Such a beautiful song 🎵
My favorite version of this song.The official video for this is very moving .He is just standing singing but it is so emotional.This just him and his guitar in the song.
Wow. The actual MV for this song is AMAZING! I wish you had watched that.
Beautiful
