    I get tears in my eyes every time I hear Jeff Buckley sing this, but tears don't always mean sadness. There is a poignant sadness to his delivery of course, but for me it's the beauty of it .Sometimes something is just so beautiful it makes me cry out of happiness and appreciation that it exists. Thank you so much. 😊✌❤

    Jeff’s soul sang this. Hard to put into words how it makes me feel - touches me to my core. So many people sing this song and sing it beautifully but it isn’t channeled from their soul.

    There are many versions of this song that are done beautifully- it's simply a beautiful song. But there is something about Buckley's version that is so intimate and personal that sets it apart. It is special.

  • @mikefetterman6782
    @mikefetterman6782 Před 17 dny +1

    Being a guitar player, the most impressive thing for me on this track is the tone of that Fender Telecaster. His guitar sounds like church bells. So clean, and crisp a tone. His amplifier is amazing. Plus he is so soulful and emotive. He sells the song. His father was also a folk singer who had a tragic end as well.

    • @mikefetterman6782
      @mikefetterman6782 Před 17 dny +1

      Jeff was very troubled, and that came through in his voice. Many highly personable performers are tragically affected emotionally, and that real strife comes through with the music.

  • @AP-gb3eh
    @AP-gb3eh Před 16 dny

    He was an emotive artist, so many versions of this that are great but definitely distinctive. Buckley, Nick Cave, KD Lang has a couple of course Leonard Cohen . It’s the interpretation that makes it magic

    I love your reactions. I'm here for Ren's reactions and loving them so far. I came across this one and had to watch because Jeff Buckley is timeless and I love his music.
    Something you may not know, Ren is completely self taught from CZcams videos including his singing. There's a reactor on CZcams called Chris Lieppe, he's a vocal coach and he did an episode on breaking down Jeff Buckley 's vocals. Anyway Ren mentioned in an interview that he watched that tutorial and based a lot of his singing style on Jeff Buckley. They both are proper singers who sing with passion and emotion, which is why I think you connect so deeply.

    • @MerchantOfAlba
      @MerchantOfAlba  Před 6 hodinami +1

    • @The_WarRen
      @The_WarRen Před 42 minutami

      ​@@MerchantOfAlbawell the story goes further. After Ren released Hi Ren and Jenny and Screech the CZcams community popped of, so much so that I think I can safely say that Ren is one of the most reacted to artists on CZcams. Ren himself then went on the rounds watching some of the reactions and left nice little comments on the ones he enjoyed.
      Ren then contacted some of these reactors and actually done interviews with some of them and Chris Liepe was one of these interviews, it's funny how things go full circle.
      Ren did 4 or 5 interviews with reactors, other reactor interviews include, with Black Pegasus a rapper, podcaster who's done about 65 Ren reactions. Knox Hill rapper lyrics analyst. Justin Hawkins of the Darkness, amongst others. Ren wanted to do a range of interviews that came from very different angles ie... Musician, rapper vocal analyst etc...
      I think it would be a. Fantastic idea to react to some interviews maybe the shorter ones. You guys are the best reactors I've come across and I've watched hundreds of reactions.

  • @ct5625
    @ct5625 Před 12 dny

    Having been a fan for a long time and read just about everything there is to read about him and his music, I recall that either the sound engineer or producer wanted a live recording of this song (you'll notice the intro is a lot longer and free-form) so this studio was set up to record it, and make a video. The story is that Buckley came in, picked up his guitar and started playing. This is that version, the first take. He was about to do another and the producer said no, it couldn't be done better. The song we're hearing was him "warming up". The visuals are from that first play through and pieces from the rest of his visit, I believe he played a couple of other songs and just jammed for a while.
    I could honestly read about people's experiences with him forever. I wish more people wrote that kind of stuff down.

Better than the first as Lucys voice is more mature, more music in it !!!!

    John Cale's version is best of all. I hope you react to it. This version never hit home with me, but I know I'm the minority. There's an amazing documentary on writing the song too I think on Netflix or Amazon. There's so many more verses Cohen wrote that didn't make the final recordings. I'm glad to see you exploring different versions.

It would be interesting to offer your viewers LEONARD COHEN's version, so that they realize how much more touching, more emotional this one is. Thanks.
