I love Jeff Buckley's speaking voice here. It is so boyish and cute. His music always has an innocence to it where I completely believe every word he ever sang.
The most heartbreaking thing is the fact that he's not singing about memories and rubbish dreams that he had with his father; he's singing about the ones he wished he had, and never will have. He must have missed him so much...

Buckley spent six years working in a hotel and playing guitar in various struggling bands playing in styles from jazz, reggae, and roots rock to heavy metal... He made his public singing debut at a tribute concert for his father called "Greetings from Tim Buckley." Buckley rejected the idea of the concert as a springboard to his career, instead citing personal reasons regarding his decision to sing at the tribute. Buckley performed "I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain", a song Tim Buckley wrote about an infant Jeff Buckley and his mother... he concluded the concert with "Once I Was" performed acoustically with an impromptu a capella ending, due to a snapped guitar string. Buckley's performance at the concert was counter-intuitive to his desire to distance himself musically from his father. Buckley later explained his reasoning: "It wasn't my work, it wasn't my life. But it bothered me that I hadn't been to his funeral, that I'd never been able to tell him anything. I used that show to pay my last respects." The concert proved to be his first step into the music industry that had eluded him for years
A few weeks ago I went down to the church where this was recorded and I sat in a back pew and listened to his entire tribute performance with headphones. It was a moment of pure transcendence. Had chills all over - especially the a capella ending...
fishtank901 The full performance used to be on CZcams as one video, but I can't seem to find it now. There were only 4 songs in it. You can find them as separate videos on CZcams. They're all posted by this same user.
it's so strange to think that this song was written by Tim Buckley because this is the song that catapult Jeff into his career and lyrically, at least in the end, it's almost as if Jeff wrote this about his father. "Do you remember me?"...it's haunting the brokenness Jeff projects and the coincidentally fitting words that he sings.
You can hear the sadness in his voice. It kind of makes me want to cry. Both Tim and Jeff had incredible talent, but unfortunately they were both taken from the world in a tragic and untimely way.
I believe that this day was too shaken to jeff. He was emotionally unstable, even that we think he gave his best at this cover. Their relationship was peculiar, complicated. So many things in jeff's mind, that day. Anyway, i love this version too.
Old enough to remember his dad singing this, The same voice was obviously passed to him, what a great legacy, and the heart breaking legacy of both dying very young , so sad!!
Yeah to be fair though Jeff Buckley's mom had every bit as much to do with his voice as well. Tim Buckley was more or less a spinto tenor with a huge range while Jeff Buckley was a leggiero tenor with a higher voice than his father although his father could sing the same high notes as Jeff, but at a heavier timbre.
If I ever believed in fate of any kind, it would be hearing the end of this when Jeff belts out 'sometimes I wonder, do you ever remember me?', right at that moment the guitar string broke and it was just Jeff's acapella voice at the most emotional part
i read in Dream Brother, that he didn't intend to sing without the guitar at the end, but that the high e string broke (which is important to this song, else he couldn't play the two first chords in the verse) so he just did it without - sure as hell sounds dramatic and beautiful!
You can hear Jeff about to cry, it's amazing that he finished the song. He finally was able to talk to his father. How perfect that he did so through his father's music. What a beautiful moment.
Best rendition ever....so emotional......if only you know what it was like to live a life were your dad was never there......and can only here his voice on a record.......painfully addressed on this record........wondering did he ever remember me....so long RIP
He was. If you read the book Dream Brother, you'll know it's clear that Tim loved Jeff. He was just too afraid to face the consequences of having a kid, having a family, adulthood.
I find myself searching Through the ashes of our ruins For the days when we smiled And the hours that ran wild With the magic of our eyes And the silence of our words This is beautiful, but Fucking Hurtful
1:30 Once I was a soldier And I fought on foreign sands for you Once I was a hunter And I brought home fresh meat for you Once I was a lover And I searched behind your eyes for you And soon there'll be another To tell you I was just a lie And sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever remember me And though you have forgotten All of our rubbish dreams I find myself searching Through the ashes of our ruins For the days when we smiled And the hours that ran wild With the magic of our eyes And the silence of our words And sometimes I wonder Just for a while Will you ever remember me
Jeff is the big brother i never had, his truly emotional voice, his funny behaviour, his ability as a guitarist, all this things has made me a better person. The feeling of alienation, the pain in life are like this sad song...make us appreciate what we have more, because nothing is forever. Thanks Jeff & Tim to exist in the past and right now in our hearts
"Suddenly, before the last chorus a string broke on his acoustic guitar, and Jeff sang the lines, 'Sometimes I wonder for a while/Do you ever remember me?' unaccompanied. If that weren't dramatic enough, his voice spiralled up on the last word -'me'- like a thin plume of smoke, holding on for a moment before drifting up to the ceiling. He took a quick bow, said, 'Thanks,' and trotted offstage, and the concert ended. It would not have been a more perfect finale if he had planned it."-DreamBrother
Thanks for uploading this gem gone too f in soon glad to know his awesome music a real legend! How the hell he is not in rock n roll fame is sickening legendary no doubt icon God of this style of great music c u later honey!....... meet me at the gate u r an angel!..... til then.............❤️👍☮️😻🤟🔥🎶
sometimes father and sin don't love each other as should be... sometimes phisically is just impossible, however when souls love each other they will surely find a way to be together and love them same way no matters what. ❤ they couldn't be together in this world they ve been together by music and so do they for good! Eternal brother
If you can listen to this, knowing the background to the whole story behind it (which I'm going to have to assume you DON'T know, since you're having to ask if this is even Jeff or not) and not feel your heartbreaking and your eyes tearing up, I'd have to say there may be something wrong with you. It is by no means "bloody awful." He sounds perfect and beautiful. If you're referring to the wavery/slightly tinny sound his voice has, that's due to recording quality; not his performance. Obviously.
I am glad to be able to find the song with this grand meaning. He continues growing whenever I listen to his music and becomes bigger in my mind. Thank you for uploading this.I Love You amabille16.
Huge Jeff and Tim fan. I absolutely love Jeff's rendition of the song (not that Tim's isn't amazing) and I find myself always singing this when I'm at home. I'm so happy that this performance exists in a public form, but to have it remastered to eliminate the bubbly sound throughout would make it a bit clearer. I don't know if it's possible, and if not it's okay. They have a remastered version of Jeff's Dido Lamenant and it is soooo incredibly beautiful.
Search "Jeff Buckley Mojo Pin (Live @ Aus Dem Sudbahnhof 24-02-1995)" and watch that, and then try to tell me he "sings flat and can't carry a tune." I can respect that different people have different opinions, and if you don't like Jeff's music or his personal style then okay, but to say he *couldn't sing* is just wrong.
I couldn't agree more! If this song isnt their "cup of tea" move on but don't disrespect those that are here for the music. That said, Im a bit confused by your saying. In the US we have a saying "opinions are like assholes, everybody has one" Is that what you meant?
i'm not sure if i would want to listen to it, but the idea of a kind of harmonizing, father and son from two different times is quite intriguing. but i worry it might kill the impression i have.
The quality is either because the tape recorders battery were about to close to dying, or the tape being used was raped and warped with 're and recording too much on that single tape, or the wheels and reader of the recorder was burnt ,it'd all happen to me back when id use them.to save worthwhile ideas,1991,mann shoulda brought his damn Mac book pro to the fucking show...91'. ..puke
is this the penn badgley imitation? or the real jeff buckley? like its a stupid question but he sang so well in the movie and i've never got to hear jeffs version..
The full recording of this concert featuring JB is ...... m.czcams.com/video/G7hTyPYCNKo/video.html ...... ie. 'jeff buckley live at st ann's church '91 remastered'
He was a coward. What man isn't afraid of the responsibility of raising a child? It seems he was more interested in his career, then to sacrifice his dreams and be a dad.
No, that's not even remotely in the vicinity of being true. Look around... YOU are the minority here. I am clearly not the only one who loves this. You seem to be the only one who doesn't. Jeff's performance at his dad's tribute concert was what launched his professional career. So apparently even the "important" people who know amazing talent when they see it were blown away by him. He played this as a tribute to his late father. He wasn't trying to cover it and make it his own.
You know, came home and checked mail and thought, good-oh, another Tim B fan. I'm so down now thats it's about that tuneless, toneless person and some nonescenscical gibberish. Yip, you got me....
A lot of people liked Michael Jackson too, so what. You have your opinion, I have mine. Yet again I'm listening to it as I type and find nothing to change my opinion. He sings flat and can't carry a tune in a bucket. Remember me, lord I'll try to forget it. Nuff said.
lol obviously the song is interpreted differently. but for me jeff's version is more touching, because while tim's was dedicated to his wife. Jeff's was to a father he never spent time with. which makes the shaky voice, and imperfections vocally speaking more touching
Who the fuck are you to dismiss Buckley's talent? you are nothing! Just a fuckin no one that have a bad taste in music, if Tim Buckley was alive He certainly would gives you a punch on yr fuckin face for talkin' shit about his son!
I listened to this and wished I hadn't. Dreadful. If you think this is 'perfect' and 'beautilul' your'e either have hearing problems,his groupie, or god knows what.Come on, it's terrible and debases the origional.Sorry.
I love Jeff Buckley's speaking voice here. It is so boyish and cute. His music always has an innocence to it where I completely believe every word he ever sang.
Completely agree with you!
so true, I agree
I do too
Took the words out of my mouth, agreed with you!!
Jeff Buckley has a bloody beautiful speaking voice
The most heartbreaking thing is the fact that he's not singing about memories and rubbish dreams that he had with his father; he's singing about the ones he wished he had, and never will have. He must have missed him so much...
I know.....at least he is with him, now.
Adrian Kahali Missed him? he didn't know him... Hes always respected Tim as a musician but never acknowledged him as his father. Hes even said in interviews that Tim means nothing to him, that his real father, the one that raised him was his step father.
Adrian Kahali Your comment made me cry.
+Darth Fuhrer Maybe my choice of words wasn't the best... I meant more of a wonder, kind of a torturous "what if" he couldn't keep himself from going back to, or at least it seems that way. But hey, I didn't know Jeff, so...

I'm reading an interview where Jeff's saying that he had a real hard time ever playing this song, because he could barely sing it without crying, and claims he almost broke down in tears during this performance. Kind of brings another element of beauty to this otherwordly performance.
You can hear his voice cracking and can tell he's tearing up.
Where was the interview that you read? I'd like to read it as well.
@@hopelove6658 the biographies I've read have said that he broke down backstage after the performance of this song. it really impacted him emotionally, and this would be when his career kind of took off after because it generated interest in him

If only we had some video footage of this.
If only! Gone too soon. He blows me away!
Buckley spent six years working in a hotel and playing guitar in various struggling bands playing in styles from jazz, reggae, and roots rock to heavy metal... He made his public singing debut at a tribute concert for his father called "Greetings from Tim Buckley."

No wonder a movie was made about this. Sometimes life surpasses fiction for a big margin, don't you think?
Do you think you might be able to find the video he performed live with this song ?
Wow, I had no idea about the string! But you can hear it break... wow...

Everything he does his gold. Everything. Everything is full of passion and so moving. Even his speaking voice is beautiful
He's one of a kind! Like Bono said, "A pure drop in an ocean of noise"
Brett Vogel Too bad Bono sucks
Bono is great!
A little boy longing for his father, heartbreaking.
Tricia Johansen 😞💔
He didn't long for his father, he already had one and it was his stepfather.
@@boatwithwheels Yes, he did, but I feel he was longing for a relationship with Tim. After all, he was Tim's son.
You can hear the sadness in his voice. It kind of makes me want to cry. Both Tim and Jeff had incredible talent, but unfortunately they were both taken from the world in a tragic and untimely way.
I believe that this day was too shaken to jeff. He was emotionally unstable, even that we think he gave his best at this cover. Their relationship was peculiar, complicated. So many things in jeff's mind, that day. Anyway, i love this version too.

Tim Buckley was more or less a spinto tenor with a huge range while Jeff Buckley was a leggiero tenor with a higher voice than his father although his father could sing the same high notes as Jeff, but at a heavier timbre.
There is a texture to the voice beyond what it's range is , that is pure Buckley, My opinion totally.
The point is mute, his voice is so close to his dad's in range and texture , that, that is the obvious connection to be pointed out.
If I ever believed in fate of any kind, it would be hearing the end of this when Jeff belts out 'sometimes I wonder, do you ever remember me?', right at that moment the guitar string broke and it was just Jeff's acapella voice at the most emotional part
Maybe he was putting so much tension on the string due to his strong emotions and that's why it broke.
incredibly sad.... both father and son died young and for nothing........
I disagree -They did not die for nothing- Their music and short lives live on as lessons and joy for all of us
I'll always remember you.
i read in Dream Brother, that he didn't intend to sing without the guitar at the end, but that the high e string broke (which is important to this song, else he couldn't play the two first chords in the verse) so he just did it without - sure as hell sounds dramatic and beautiful!
3:56 Broken String. Amazing transition into a cappella

Wow..how did you noticed that??

Chills all over, what a voice
This recording is a gem, this is a historic moment in music and in Jeff's life! And when you focus, you even can hear the string breaking...
Such a sweet, angelic voice he had - even while speaking.
i miss you Jeff
I can he was on the brink of tears. the story goes that when he got finished, he ran back stage and bawled his eyes out. but that's the story
It's a beautiful story, sad but beautiful.
He was. If you read the book Dream Brother, you'll know it's clear that Tim loved Jeff. He was just too afraid to face the consequences of having a kid, having a family, adulthood.
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
This is beautiful, but Fucking Hurtful
omg. I can hear the full range of emotion in his voice in this song moreso than any other Jeff song I've heard.
Some songs are just meant to be sang by certain people at particular moments in time. That night in 1991, the Jeff Buckley was born.
I think listening to this just changed my life.
1:30
Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there'll be another
To tell you I was just a lie
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you ever remember me
And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you ever remember me

I agree, He was a great Jeff Buckley, I hated the movie, but I have to give him credit, he was a great choice for playing Jeff :)
The world will always be too ugly for someone like Jeff
his voice is shaking so much.... I don't know if it's because of how upset he was or because he was nervous, but it makes me sad to hear
nervous
lol i think thats 95% just worn out magnetic tape
Wow, last part" do you ever remember me"!
Ending heartbreaking and haunting💔😥

Both were incredible. They come from another planet and went to another planet.
Sometimes a flash of his fathers talent.
Wow
great sonhg

i'm not sure if i would want to listen to it, but the idea of a kind of harmonizing, father and son from two different times is quite intriguing. but i worry it might kill the impression i have.
Please tell me there’s a live version of him playing this song , if so please send it
PlantsandAnimals5000, yes I want video of this concert!! Post please.
Tim Buckley was my idol in the sixties. I like jeff's version. Better in the studio, but not bad here.
Does anyone know if uses a capo here? I know the chord progression is D, D7, G (in drop D)
me too
Wow :(
Have you heard listened to Jeff's other music?
The quality is either because the tape recorders battery were about to close to dying, or the tape being used was raped and warped with 're and recording too much on that single tape, or the wheels and reader of the recorder was burnt ,it'd all happen to me back when id use them.to save worthwhile ideas,1991,mann shoulda brought his damn Mac book pro to the fucking show...91'. ..puke
If anyone is interested to have a listen, I did a mashup of Jeff and Tim singing Once I Was.
Great job with this tribute to his dad eh
is there any audio from jeff cover "Phantasmagoria in Two"? cant find that anywhere. :(
if you havent found it already, you can contact me via private message.
Ivan Čanaćević I don't know it you already found it, but there is in my channel :)
amabille16 still cant find it :) can you send me a link?
is this the penn badgley imitation? or the real jeff buckley? like its a stupid question but he sang so well in the movie and i've never got to hear jeffs version..
This is jeff himself :)
thanks, yeah I just checked out the penn badgley one and this is so much more jeff buckley
No comparison
the two sayings are essentially the same. taste refers to a person's taste of music or "liking" of certain things, so basically an opinion.
Why does it sound like that?
His father song.
The full recording of this concert featuring JB is ...... m.czcams.com/video/G7hTyPYCNKo/video.html ...... ie. 'jeff buckley live at st ann's church '91 remastered'
He was a coward. What man isn't afraid of the responsibility of raising a child? It seems he was more interested in his career, then to sacrifice his dreams and be a dad.

3700 views..... are you fucking kidding? people nowadays.
I doubt it. He sure wasn't very proud to have Jeff as his son.

This tape was fucked up...
The static in the recording makes his voice sound a little like Shannon Hoon.
cela était un moment tellement personnel et intime pour JEFF... l écouter sur le net c'est presque gênant.
You know, came home and checked mail and thought, good-oh, another Tim B fan. I'm so down now thats it's about that tuneless, toneless person and some nonescenscical gibberish. Yip, you got me....
*Your father. I think Jeff was a better singer overall - search "Dream Brother live".
*sorry your. Mmm I don't think so. Jeff never sang like his Father in Starsailor. Anyway, both were incredible musicians.
A lot of people liked Michael Jackson too, so what. You have your opinion, I have mine. Yet again I'm listening to it as I type and find nothing to change my opinion. He sings flat and can't carry a tune in a bucket. Remember me, lord I'll try to forget it. Nuff said.
No where near as good as the original but Jeff was brilliant in his own right
Chicken skin
Sorry, not in same league as his father. This doesn't do it for me.
