hillsonghoods  said about 5 years ago:

I'm not jaded. But it is lame to get worked up over some dead guy who some people like - why not get worked up over WorkChoices or climate change or something instead?

it is not fucking lame to get worked up about how crap jeff buckley is.

COMPLACENCY IS THE BANE OF SOCIETY

jeff buckley's career was the result of a marketing man who had a crush on the "sensitive yet rebellious girl". so he made something for her. this girl was a complete cunt and turned emo, and a million other girls stepped in to take her place. so the marketing guy fucked a lot of girls, and got syphilis and died. many cracked windows later, men everywhere were wearing pirate shirts and had begun to use handcream for it's more traditional purpose. society crumbled, and in irony so profound that nobody will ever understand it, people developed a "sort spot" for this clown.

jeff buckley's legacy went on to ruin music forever. young men everywhere were attacking their own genetalia with mallets and having plastic surgery to look more wistful, whilst women swooned so much that they were piled on top of each other in the head injury wards, while "grace" blasted from the speakers.

when buckley died, thousands of morons had to be intravenously rehydrated from sooking so much. in a bizarre suspected insider trading move, john butler had just bought majority holdings in the world's sterile saline companies, and his star continued to rise with the advent of emo. in fact, it is believed that if you pull john butler's dread-wig off, he has goth hair underneath.

BAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
JEFF BUCKLEY SUCKS SO HARD!!!

nyx: jeez, what is this? It's horrible

workmates: Jeff Buckley!! (shocked, insulted faces)

nyx: oh


TagoMago  said about 3 years ago:

Live In Chicago is on tele right now. Haven't seen it in years. He really over-does the vocal theatrics at times. It's a little bit cringy in parts.


La Bomba  said about 3 years ago:

hahaha


nerdalert  said about 3 years ago:

TagoMago...what channel?


TagoMago  said about 3 years ago:

Musicmax, pay tv. Not free to air sorry if I implied so.


FlipYourWig  said about 3 years ago:

self important, aggrandising, bullshit. Nearly got into fisty cuffs with a dude once for mentioning that I wasn't into Jeff Buckley. Seems to attract totally humourless fans.


HEB  said about 3 years ago:

IF JEFF BUCKLEY HAD LIVED

If Jeff Buckley had lived
And his voice still was heard
On the weak second album
And difficult third
Then the critics, who broke him,
He couldn't forgive -
Would grow old and forget him
If Jeff Buckley had lived

New Jeff Buckley CD/2DVD set: ''Grace Around The World''

Surely the barrel has been completely cleared out by this stage....


email  said about 2 years ago:

geezus tittyfucking, give it a rest already.


juicenewton*  said about 2 years ago:

oh fuck off already.

I really really liked Jeff Buckley, missed him play a lunchtime set at the lounge (cbf walking down from RMIT- what a mistake!) then saw him at the Palais, bought a t-shirt, listened to Grace on and off for several years. I refused to buy any post-death albums ('everybody here wants you' sounded schmultzy and crap and who can tell if that's how it was really supposed to sound?).

Anyways, give him up people. I always suggest to people lay off Jeff and get into Tim if you want just a little more, certain melodic lines are genetic it seems.

I thought the expanded Sin-e record was more enjoyable than anything else, but Jesus... GIVE IT UP MARY!


adamdmills  said about 2 years ago:

even as a big fan, i can't see myself buying this. i don't need any more jeff buckley in my life.


intruder  said about 2 years ago:

This is definitely getting beyond a joke. Grace was a good album. Leave it at that.


Woollen Kits  said about 2 years ago:

Grace is awful.


Goal attack  said about 1 year ago:

used to be obsessed with trying to sing like him. Had a listen to some stuff recently, he was a terrible lyricist.


Ghostface  said about 1 year ago:

but that song that he wrote *Hallelujah *is like, so deep man


Jacky_Chiles  said about 1 year ago:

Yeah, Leonard Cohen's cover of it is well shit.
