Grace

This is one of the greatest albums of all time. It's not an understatement.The production value this record has is so far up above and beyond a lot of material you'll ever hear period. Buckley's vocals sound angelic and have genuine depths in His lyrical delivery and overall taste for music. As a whole, he clearly understands rhythm. And intricate playing very well and the way that he displays that. And especially the group of musicians that also played on the album, they did a fantastic job. I really could just kind of go on about what specifically, but I mean, thinking about checks like I turn a life being a postgrunge esque track back in 94 and also having moments like lover. You should have come over, it's very, very different genre switches that are also so beautiful sound very well

Some highs but a few misses

A bit self-indulgent at times with the vocal acrobatics. But, unlike his father, Jeff had the decency to put some actual good music under his songs elevating the whole above the stuff his father made, which I couldn't stand and I hope after 4? Albums I hope he doesn't show up anymore. Anyway Jeff is better than tim

really good but couldn’t give it the attention it needed. will come back

and the crazy thing is he still cheated

Great album and I recognize it's greatness but it's not my personal jam

Finally got assigned this album (never heard it) and…I get it. It’s beautiful. Great voice paired with minimalist but good guitar playing. It’s a great album.

Very talented!!! But not sure my style. 3.5

A couple of bangers, but overall not 100% my style. 3.5

this is the best album ever by a man. rip jeff it’s never over

Great

Six out of five stars.

I tried many times but still don't really like this man's music. If he wasn't the son of a famous musician he wouldn't have had this record deal and if he hadn't died young, no one would have bought this album. To me, this sounds a lot like a million other mediocre albums by mid '90s artists who haven't really figured out what they are all about yet. 3⭐️

This guy’s gonna go far

I've listened to this many times in my life, but not for a long time. Still sounds great. 9.4 Fav track: Dream Brother Least fav: Corpus Christi Carol

There are three things, primarily, to enjoy on Grace -- the late Jeff Buckley's only recording completed in his lifetime. The first is his voice. Rangy, smooth, expressive and wailing, Jeff Buckley possessed a voice with few male equals in the 1990s. In the rock sphere, post-Freddie, you may only have Chris Cornell. Surely there are some R&B singers who could hold a candle but that's out of my wheelhouse. The second is his guitar work. Buckley played a particularly dynamic type of self-accompaniment. Even more rare than his remarkable voice is the combination of his voice and his stringed instrument -- sometimes counterpoint, sometimes harmony. With either of these, the music shrinks and expands all the time; from simple and haunting to roaring and soaring, he does it all with both on this record. It is dynamic, in terms of economy of phrasing, in terms of volume and most importantly in terms of conveyed emotion. The third thing is composition. Buckley channeled his finely honed talents through song structures that seem simple on the surface but which reveal knotty chord structures and chrodal cadences to achieve the tension-and-release cycle that marks much of his writing. The title track alone has a hook that hovers in an almost-major mode contrasted against a very tense thing for the verses that seems to ascend and descend chromatically. For a guy famous for a Leonard Cohen cover, this song absolutely thunders. Tragically, we really only have this in our consciousness because of the strangeness of his demise. Late in May of 1997, Buckley went swimming, fully clothed, in a tributary of the Mississippi and drowned accidentally when a boat's wake swept him away. Critical acclaim wasn't entirely dependent on his death but his profile was raised significantly by the tragedy and it is entirely possible that we would not know Cohen's 'Hallelujah' -- a song Cohen struggled with (writing likely over a hundred verses) and whose revival began in '91 with the John Cale recording -- had Jeff Buckley not been sacrificed to the Mississippi River. We'll never know if this record was the tip of a brilliant iceberg or a gorgeous fluke. We can only enjoy its loveliness for its own sake, a snapshot of a musician who vanished shortly thereafter. 5/5

incredible. was sus, thought would be happy because all I knew before was hallelujah. also thought it was much older. man went hard, vibe his voice, grace a tune with good levels on the slapometer

no sabia que iba a escuchar hallelujah en el medio la verdad, me sorprendi ah

One of my all time favourite albums. The variety and the vocal power of Buckley and the tragedy of his death make this such an incredible piece of art.

ive already heard this album but not in forever, its sososo incredibly beautiful. i genuinely dont know how he got such angelic tones. beautiful. i cant even comprehend how impressive this is as your first album AT LIKE 24??? crazy...

Fin ofte rolig instrumental, litt akustisk Radiohead stil, med rolig noen ganger også plutselig ampa opp Bro synger fint Mange av sangene er med treig rolig synging, de som ikke er det pleier å være grove.

Meh. Not really my thing.

Good

I very unique sounding album, with some excellent songs.

An absolute classic! Gorgeous voice, beautiful melodies- a really beautiful album.

Wow, really enjoyed this. Amazing voice, nice varied tunes, adding this to my mix. Had never listened to this album before.

Love this album

IT'S NEVER OVER. 4.65

fuckin hate Hallelujah album's great though

Love this album. Jeff Buckley is one of my favourite ever male vocalists and it's such a shame that this was the only album we got got from him before his untimely passing. He showed such range on this record, from intensely powerful belting to an angelic falsetto and plenty inbetween. I see some people describe his vocal style as over the top and self indulgent, but I think it sells the raw emotion of the music perfectly. He may lack subtelty at times but there's a time and a place for maximalism in my eyes and this record is a great example of that. Vocals aside, this record is filled with really strong compositions with excellent progressions and some really great guitar work. That opening riff on the title track for example is such an ear worm, as is the main riff on Last Goodbye. The rest of his band were no slouches either, the drums in particular are impeccable throughout the album and compliment the energy of Buckley's guitar work well. Honestly, this is probably one of the best debut albums of all time. It's such a captivating and evocative record that dances through genre boundaries whilst remaining immediately accessible. I can't even imagine how Buckley's music could have developed when his first effort was as realized and iconic as this. Too bad we'll never know. Favourite tracks: Mojo Pin, Grace, Lover You Should Have Come Over, Last Goodbye

Just an outstanding album

Wow. What a gem of an album. I really wish there was more of him. Who knows where else this could've gone, but this is definitely worth a listen and a few re-listens.

Unbelievable voice, great range of songs. Greatest version of Hallelujah out there

A good combination of hard rock and soft somber melodies. Wish Buckley had been able to make more music, he was so talented Standout Songs: Mojo Pin Grace Hallelujah Lover, You Should’ve Come Over Eternal Life

i feel like i should like this more than i do. undeniably important part of society tho

So much musical talent, like him or not.

album interessantinho, talvez um pouco católico demais? esse cover de Hallelujah ou original não me apetece vocais muito bons, jeff tem um groove e voz bem únicos música fav: forget her

mojo pin is heavenly, lover you should’ve come over is a great and eternal life is awesome!!!

This is my desert island album. I would just fine only listening to this album for the rest of my life. JB I love you.

Mid

another 90s one i've not listened to in a while. buckley is a very talented singer and guitarist. i wish we had the chance to hear him once he had developed his own voice and sound. so much of _Grace_ sounds like led zeppelin. he would have found his voice, eventually.

como sempre, a categoria singer songwriter é uma caixinha de surpresa. quem me conhece sabe que eu não sou lá fã de baladas emocionais e músicas lentas num geral, mas a voz desse moço é LINDA, cheia de sentimento e melancolia, lindo mesmo de se ver. muito triste de saber da sua partida tão cedo, aposto que ele faria mais uns albuns bons de rock/grunge, como foi provado em "eternal life".

I understand that his voice and vocal style are not for everyone. That being said, what an incredible talent! From the song writing to the sublime guitar tone to the fantastic mixing/production (the sound of the drums on this are top tier) this is a teaser of what could have been. Sure, there are some misses here but there are far and away more outstanding moments. This is on the higher side of 4 stars and easily better than 90% of the absolute crap this list has suggested thus far.

Distinctive, though overrated. Not for me really. Already had "So real" in the playlist.

Geniaal, emoties, veel verschillende ambiances, fantastische stem (beste die ik ken). Highlights: Grace, Last Goodbye, Hallelujah, Dream Brother, Forget Her (bonus track).

one of the greatest albums ever made

This is an album I've seen on best-of lists my entire life but never sat down and really gave it a chance. I found it difficult to evaluate because of all the mythos surrounding it and, ultimately, had mixed feelings. I found it mostly enjoyable (I especially love his performance of Lilac Wine), but it didn't stick with me in any ultra-powerful way. I can see how this directly influenced Radiohead; I'm surprised there isn't more discourse about how this influenced late 90s / early 00s emo, because it really rings the same bell. If Buckley had kept making records, he could have gone on to have a long critically-acclaimed pop career -- I could see him having occupied a similar place as Beck, for instance. Or, he could have washed away as an of-a-moment 90s adult contemporary guy, like Counting Crows or the Goo Goo Dolls. Maybe if I heard this album at the right time and place in my life it would feel "perfect," but hearing it here and now it feels "pretty good."

Good 3. Very cool!

Wasn’t what I was expecting so far

Jeff Buckley gave everything he had in making Grace…voice, nerve, tenderness, and ache without holding ANYTHING back as if he didn’t expect to survive after making it. just devastatingly human + soul laid bare.

Jeff Buckley – Grace (1994) What an album. It doesn't require a technical ear to judge how good this is; the musicianship is simply peak. After taking the time to go through the entire project, I can fully appreciate what a classic body of work this is. The vocal performance throughout is incredible, especially on Hallelujah, which was a real highlight for me. Other standouts like Mojo Pin, Grace, Last Goodbye, So Real, Lilac Wine, Lover You Should’ve Come Over, and Eternal Life made the experience feel complete and high-level. This is a record I will definitely be returning to. An easy 5/5. Going from hearing the title track here and there to realizing the whole project is a classic is what this 1001 list is all about.

Some great tunes, and Buckley is clear a gifted musician, taken too soon. Didn't floor me, but will give it another shot.

Great album, great voice. So many songs which I come back to on this record. Amazing for the time. Don’t know how he plays the guitar and sings like that at the same time

Grace is one of the most beautiful albums I have ever listened to in my life. Period. Every single song on this album (including forget her on the expanded) contains an entire world which Buckley brings to life. No matter how many times I listen to this album I find something new to appreciate. The subtle neighing when Buckley sings "the white horses flow" on Mojo Pin, the vibrato on Hallelujah, the chord progressions on Grace, the rawness of eternal life, the pain in Forget Her. My mom and I saw a documentary about his life last year, and she knowing next to nothing about Buckley, was still mesmerized by his music and life.

A genuine 5. I didn't hear this album until I was 21. The cover always put me off, I thought Jeff Buckley was gonna be a boogie-woogie guy or something. Anyway, I was in Corsica for some reason visiting a friend studying there and she had some Irish pals who adopted me for the weekend, made me drink Pastis and listened to Grace a hundred times. I've listened to it hundreds of times since. Magical music. I'm a big fan of Sketches for My Sweetheart, the Drunk as well. However, this feels like the only true Jeff Buckley album and it's perfect from start to end. Best: Grace, Dream Brother, So Real Worst: (no bad songs whatsoever, not even close)

So good

4.7/5 Stars Top Songs: Lover You Should've Come Over, Hallelujah, Eternal Life

оч красивое звучание гитары в альбоме

Boring (except for Hallelujah)

This is good sophisticated music and quality of the record is great. I can feel how much effort was put in it. However, it slow and boring in my opinion. There are not enough “hooks” to make me want to listen to it again. Jeff Buckley obviously was very talented musician, but this is just not my type of music

2,5 år med listen har kvalificeret mig til at kalde Jeff meget bedre end sin far. Sikke en stemme, sikke nogle arrangementer 🤌🤌🤌

Ok vild debut Jeff! Den er lidt all over the place, hvilket bare gør det endnu mere sindssygt hvor godt det hele virker.

Amazing album. Beautiful voice and songs.

Está guay, y está la mítica de este artista.

This album is the type that enters your life for a fleeting moment of deep relevancy and emotional vulnerability, and just lingers in the depths of your memory until you're compelled to listen to it again. At least that's what it is for me. I first started listening to Jeff Buckley's Grace during my sophomore year of high school, one of the most pivotal points of my life. Forget Her, by far, is my favorite track of the album, for reasons both musical and personal. Definitely a must-listen album.

What an amazing album. Gone way too soon.

Lilac wine

I should like this album, but I don’t.

I had no idea this album or artist existed until now, and I was worried listening to early tracks,as i’m not a fan of very melodramatic, sad music. However,I was pleasantly surprised by the vocal range, and range of sounds in this album. The instrumentation is really good, especially the guitars, and his singing is at times very impressive. That being said, this isn’t my personal preference for sound, and despite being able to appreciate what is here, I doubt I will be returning in future beyond a few songs.

Great album. Great flow through out. No weak tracks.

Världens bästa!

I had no knowledge other than hallelujah and I was really happy to listen

Definitely has a vibe. At times I kind of get a Radiohead sense--I can see how it influenced them. But mostly it's just something else entirely. I understand why a lot of critics listening to this didn't really understand it at first. It's certainly something different. I kind of like the haunting voice, though sometimes it gets kind of lost in itself I think. Corpus Christi Carol, for example, is a little excessive. The harder song, Eternal Life, kind of jars after that song, but it's a welcome change in pace around there. Not sure this is as great an album as some say, but it's quite good. The last song, Forget Here, is very good. 4/5

Enjoyable!

Soft rock listen but no stand outs.

I don't know. I woke up on eternal life for a while.

Great vocals At least 4 song 10/10

Great voice, again not at the top of my list.

Sonaba bien en general

FUCK YEAHHH

i remember reading about how Matt Bellamy from Muse got inspired to sing despite having a tenor voice, thanks to hearing Jeff Buckley. I think this goes beyond the vocal range, and has to do with how honest, vulnerable and sensitive it's his music. Every time i hear this album, i'm mesmerized with how powerful it is. I think i feel the way he felt. Listening to this, with better headphones than the last time, was an intense experience. His voice makes me cry. And i'm thankful for that.

Wasn't that great lol 😭

I'm lying in bed, my blanket is warm. The first words of a book or lines of an album sometimes say enough.

An Angel walked among us as Artist, graced us with such songs of heartbreaking beauty, a choir of angels in a single voice, and then left.

1. Mojo Pin ✔️✔️ 2. Grace ✔️ 3. Last Goodbye 4. Lilac Wine ✔️ 5. So Real ✔️ 6. Hallelujah ✔️✔️ 7. Lover, You Should've Come Over ✔️✔️ 8. Corpus Christi Carol ✔️✔️ 9. Eternal Life 10. Dream Brother ✔️ 11. Forget Her 〰️

A totally average album.

i am not even religious, but this album is great

IT'S NEVER OVEEEERRRRR. THE YEARNING OMGGG. yea some songs like hallelujah honestly ruin it; therefore, it's not perfect, but OH MY GOD. I might just kill myself. Listened to this on repeat on a lot of hearwrenching accasions so yeah, personal connection.

MY SHAYLA FINE ASS

One of the greatest voices ever and an incredibly unique sound.

Cool melodies, rhythm, instruments accompanied by his vocals is nice. Not my everyday music but it grows on me. Appreciate his music! I give him my grace haha

So various shifts!!!! It constantly surprises me with sounds I don’t expect.

plivač je snimio skroz dobar album! premda nije načelno moja brija, dosta mi se svidjelo. stilski raznovrsno

Did not care for this album. It was saved by Hallelujah but only briefly.

One of my favourite albums in general.

3/5

The high acclaim for this album is lost on me, I don't get it. Buckley can sing and has a great range but the songs really didn't do anything for me and I'm not one of those people who wet themselves any time a version of "Hallelujah" is performed so that song didn't merit an automatic pass for the album. I didn't dislike it but it didn't really do much to barely raise the bar above not liking it. 2.5/5

10/10 no notes

very boring

So.e decent writing and a few good tracks on here, but mostly it's just inoffensive.

Masterpiece. Probably in the top 10 albums on this entire list

Quite melancholic and gentle. Will listen again

Much too tortured for me for today. My opinion might improve on a relisten. I added his cover of “Hallelujah” to my playlist.

A lot of really involving atmosphere on this one. Buckley isn't a particularly strong composer of melodies; I struggle to remember more than a few seconds of any of these songs, save 'Hallelujah'. But his songs are amazing mood pieces, generating another take on the gloomy melancholy that I tend to enjoy most in this kind of feeling-first music. Tons of really beautiful guitar work here as well. Up front, holding it all together, are the fascinating vocals, not typically conveying hooks but keeping things unpredictable and very, very human. What an interesting record!

Pek benim tarzım değil. Bazı şarkılardaki ritmi sevmedim çok düz ilerliyorlardı ve bir şey hissettirmedi. Hallelujah iyiydi. Açıp dinlemeyeceğim bir albüm.

I see how this guy was probably important, but to me he was like a worse Radiohead. Maybe he walked so they could run. The last song on this album was ok

you know... I feel like I've been all over the map on this album in the 30+ years since it came out. I didn't love it when it came out, revisited it later and loved it. I think, listening today, it's just a real good album and it's too bad we didn't get to find out where he would've gone from here.

Knew more than I had anticipated

This is actually one of my favorite albums of all time, I think one of the best ever made. He was so talented and I will just never get over it he was amazing. Lilac Wine will always make me stop when I listen to it, and I just love it so much

I was thinking it was overrated. But it is not. I love it surprisingly. Never listened to whole album despite its new-gained popularity and it's definitely worth the hype. Lots of iconic songs and melodies.

I know this album is incredibly well-loved, and it's really cool how people have kind of rediscovered it, but I only *kind* of get it. Now before I go any further, I'd like to say that I actually think this is a really great album, and a *fantastic* debut. But it's the sort of thing where I can see Grace justifying Jeff Buckley's place as one of the greatest *singers* of the '90s, but not a place as one of the greatest artists of all time. I don't usually like to pull this lens, but I do truly think that him releasing a single, incredibly well-realized debut, then dying tragically has made it impossible to view his career without some understanding of unrealized potential, which I think can overshadow his actual accomplishments. And Grace is, admittedly, an accomplishment. Grace combines alt-rock, singer-songwriter sensibilities, and a vocal approach which reminds me of '60s vocal jazz into a compelling mix that's tricky to pin down. His originals are all well-written, and dynamically performed. My favorites are songs like Mojo Pin, Grace, so Real, and Dream Brother: songs that really revel in the swell of the sound. Sometimes it's almost reminiscent of post rock, and adds a really smart dynamic to songs that may otherwise feel like more conventional singer-songwriter affair. While he is a talented songwriter, it's fair to say that Jeff Buckley is more well known as a singer. And while I think discussions about who the best ever singer is quickly lose sight of what actually makes music enjoyable: I would be a fucking liar if I didn't mention that Buckley sings his ass off on this entire record. He is a fantastically talented singer. That being said, I do think there are times where he threatens to oversing a little, and raw talent is rarely what I'm really looking for in a singer. But I did really enjoy the performances on this album. But while I am talking about negatives, I do have a couple of other things I'd like to mention. Firstly, when his songwriting gets grungier, sometimes it feels really out of place. Last Goodbye is an example that I'm able to brush off, but a song like Eternal Life comes out of absolutely nowhere, and it's almost distracting. I think the noise guitar break on So Real is a moment that handles a gear shift into heavier sounds a lot more elegantly. I'd also like to note that of the 11 songs here, 3 are covers. So while the majority of the material is Buckley's, I do think it's fair to mention in the context of a singer-songwriter record. Although, I do like the covers: Lilac Wine and Corpus Christi Carol are beautiful. And his cover of Hallelujah is legendary. Although I need to complain about something a little bit, while I'm talking about Hallelujah. I do really enjoy his cover of Hallelujah, but my favorite will always be the original 1984 Leonard Cohen recording. It captures a different tone, a heavier emotional feeling (to me) and I actually love Cohen's vocal styling. Also, I think Hallelujah is where Jeff Buckley comes closest to oversinging on the whole album: *also* he subbed out my favorite verse of the original Hallelujah (I did my best, It wasn't much...), which kind of paints the subject matter in a whole different light at the last minute on the original recording. Anyways, I would like to end on a high note, so I'll say that I think Gary Lucas' guitar playing on a few of these songs is incredibly underrated. He organically fills in the gaps around Buckley's singing with some really incredible, textural guitar playing. Anyways, I kind of see why some people have the relationship to this album that they do. There is a real beauty here, and Buckley's such an interesting, compelling figure. But I do have enough problems across the runtime that they do start to add up a little. Although despite a few things here I consider flaws, this is still a pretty amazing record that I thoroughly enjoyed. And the best songs here kind of are must-listens.

I wish Jeff had more to his catalog cause I feel like he was setting up to something great after this album. This albums left a lot to be desired.

oh. my. gosh. literal masterpiece?! now i see why a lot of people hyped this up. this is amazing. i got so sad upon the discovery of his passing :( this album is the epitome of yearning.

Did not like, quit after first 3 songs.

An amazing album from a talent who left us far too early.

I very much enjoyed this album listen from Buckley! I can’t believe that this was his only album and that he tragically passed at such a young age but what an album to leave behind. I love the raw emotion and pain that you can feel in Buckley’s vocal delivery. I found this album to be very moving and emotional because Buckley really gave it his all on this album. Overall, I enjoyed this album listen and would listen to it again in the future!

Perfect

p good, added a couple songs to the rotation

A stunning album. One that I've avoided due to it's reputation of being brilliant, and now that I've listened to it I'm in awe. Some haunting, beautiful songs here.

I have often wondered if some of the praise for this album is about its mythos. "Grace" was the ignored classic upon its release and only album from the man with a famous and famously estranged father. Jeff the musical prodigy who died far too young. All of this is true and I can't help but listen to this album feeling that there was so much potential for his career. Like many artists before him, his death would be the thing that finally found him success and fame. But there are echoes of his father on there. Although Tim Buckley had only met his son, it's easy to see that Jeff may have been interested in music before of him. All of that background aside, it's an excellent album on its own. While "Hallelujah" is rightfully praised, "Lilac Wine" is equally beautiful. There's not a bad song on here and Buckley was a real talent who could have gone on to greatness if he'd had the chance.

3 out of 5 Back in 1994, I would have definitely made fun of someone for listening to Jeff Buckley. I now understand it was wrong to make fun of someone for liking different music. I also now understand Jeff Buckley is pretty fucking good! Very chill and mellow, but a nice undertone of rock and roll. This was great as background music while working. I turned up the volume for a few songs. This was fun.

Absolutely loved it! One of my favourite albums now, thx!

i really like this playlist so far

Loved this album - it is definitely dramatic, but it works. My favorites are Lover, you should’ve come over, Lilac Wine, & So Real, but I have to say this is one of the best renditions of Hallelujah I have ever heard

i mean,,,,, yes. i added this album to my spotify library ages ago with the intent of listening to it because of lover you should've come over, and i've listened to it here and there but never really got into it. we'll see if that changes,, something i think some of the other albums might've lacked is dynamics. this one does not. there's something for every mood in there, like corpus christi carol going into eternal life is crazy

This record is like a zombie, that no matter how many times it passes away, it comes crawling back. Heard in the 90s, then the early 2000s, 2010s and now again. And not once, in all those times, have I liked it. So affected and overwrought and show-offy that there are barely songs, just wailing melodramatic angst. And KD Lang's Hallelujah blows this one out of the water.

His voice is remarkable, but to me this album is more about potential than full realization.

Not my style but a few popular songs

no likey

dramatic, operatic, soaring, ambitious, mysterious, wild and wonderful

Already listened its fiya

Great album. The vocal range of Jeff is just incredible

Didn’t even have to listen, first because I wanted to be happy and second cause I know it’s a 5 star album

джефф бакли шёл, чтобы лана дель рэй могла бежать очень чувственный, меланхоличный альбом. можно послушать, когда грустно, чтобы добить себя

This exceeded expectations especially considering I hadn't ever heard of the artist, album, or any of the songs (other than the cover). Very good. I would listen to this album again.

Felt wholly original. Not sure if I’ll be coming back to the well on this one but glad I listened to it

I found the whole less than the sun of its parts on this one. I really like his voice and the guitar but the songs didnt slap fir me

An either love it or hate it album. I like it. The singing is fine, the production is fine, the writing is fine. It's all above average, but didn't feel like the epiphany it's claimed to be. It just kinda weaves in one ear enough for you to go "this is nice", then weaves out before changing your opinion on it. I like other versions of "Hallelujah" better. "Lover You Should've Come Over" is the highlight, but elsewhere it just kinda remains melancholily solid. While still good album and I can see why it's engrained in so many people, and I'm sure upon some relisten somewhere down the line I'll fully appreciate Jeff Buckley, I'll still be reaching for "Late for the Sky" when I'm feeling heartbroken and irreparable.

Love the slow build and ominous sound to Mojo Pin. Love the ominous element to Grace juxtaposed with the hopeful 60s/70s sounding rock riff. The skill of the scream near the end is inSANE. Last Goodbye is bittersweet and gorgeous. Lilac Wine - LOVE the difference in tone from the dark verses to the sweet chorus, and the key changes on 'crazy, dear' creating a smooth link from the dark bridge back to sweetness again. Tune on the first 'unready' after that is so gorgeous too. The last note is sung and held so beautifully. Love how the beginning of Hallelujah feels kind of like he's just jamming out, before the two poignant notes at 0:45 brings the song in. Again, INSANE talent on the second-last held note, WOAH.

Yawn. I tried getting into this ages ago and couldn’t. Listening to this now I mean yeah Buckley’s voice is amazing but the songs are extremely weak. There’s nothing there working for it except for the vocals and the songs just sound like an endless droning lullaby. I know it’s considered super influential and stuff and yeah you could hear this vocal style all over the nineties. It’s just so dull, willing to go as high as two stars. No, one.

Fav: Lover, You Should’ve Come Over Least Fav: Lilac Wine I distinctly remember this as being the first album that made me sit and think about how good it was. And then I found out he died

No soy tan fan del estilo

what's the big deal don't get/

Most unpopular musical opinion I hold is that the original Leonard Cohen version of Hallelujah is the best. That said, Jeff brings something special to it. It's the standout track on the album. I found the rest pleasant enough, but his falsetto does annoy me - sometimes he sounds like he's doing a Tiny Tim parody.

best album ever to exist ever.

Micro review: Jesus. This fucking guy. Just.... Jesus. Short review: I'm pretty sure my rating system is flawed. I've been giving out way too many fours and fives that don't measure up to this one. The vocal performance, songwriting, lyrics, and instrumental performances are all incredible. One of the greatest albums of all time. Longer review: "Mojo Pin" is an incredible album opener- it tells you everything you need to know about the record you just started: Jeff has a tremendous voice, able to hit ridiculously high notes, yes, but also capable of moving from a scream to an angelic lilt in the span of a single phrase. Dynamics are key, and songs will not follow a traditional "quiet verse-loud chorus" structure. Lyrics will be poetic and impressionistic rather than detailed and concrete. Power and beauty will live side by side in the same song. Every song feels like Jeff is auditioning for a different band. Hard rock, art rock, jazz standards, romantic ballads, fucking glee club. HE'S DOING IT ALL. I know this guy's voice is not everyone's cup of tea. I get that. But compared to some of the other "acquired taste" singers I've heard on this list, Jeff smokes them all. He smokes pretty much every other male vocalist, barring maybe Marvin Gaye. This one just floored me. What a talent. Sidebar: The last lines of this album are "asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over" THE DUDE DROWNED. Jesus God. FIVE STARS

Pretty good. Eclectic.

You might need to hear this before you die if you're a millennial white girl post-breakup.

4/5

I mean.. what can I say about this album that hasn't been said before? Such a shame that it's Buckley's only album before he unfortunately passed away.. such a promising career, gone to waste. But Grace is such a phenomenal album, definitely a must hear before you die. 9.5 / 10

❤️

Babes it’s Jeff Buckley

Masterpiece

Loved it. Alt 90s

Einige gute Ansätze, wenig Konkretes, das hängen bleibt.

Sehr guter überraschender Start, danach flacht es langsam ab. Das "Hallelujah" Cover ist sehr schön, wirkt auf dem Album allerdings auch etwas fehlplatziert im Flow.

Wächst definitiv bei häufigerem Hören. Hatte ihn ursprünglich als One-Hit-Wonder abgestempelt und war überrascht, wie rockig/grungig die Platte teilweise klingt. Die Slowtempo-Songs sind zwar schon noch in der Überzahl, aber hier stecken sehr viele tolle Melodien drin. Werde hier bestimmt noch einige Male zurückkehren.

Joa, 94 Pop/Rock Album.

Absolut genial, ich habe alles daran genossen. Das sind genau die Entdeckungen, auf die ich mich bei dieser Liste im Vorfeld gefreut habe.

Richtig richtig gut! Dachte der Mann hat nur Hallelujah gevovert und das war's aber das Album ist richtig stark. Erinnert in seinen besten Momenten an Muse oder Snow Patrol. Schade dass es nie zu einem wirklichen zweiten Album kam, der könnte einer der ganz großen sein.

OUKEI

I was surprised by how much I liked several songs on this. It's an incredibly genre-twisting album -- from blues to rock to gentle singer-songwriter and back again. Buckley's voice is fantastic, and I say that as someone who doesn't even like falsetto voices most of the time. Even though this has such a range, it's surprising how many of the songs I liked. Favorite Songs: Grace Lover, You Should've Come Over Dream Brother Favorite lyric: This is our last goodbye/I hate to feel the love between us die/But it's over/Just hear this and then i'll go/You gave me more to live for/More than you'll ever know"

Some really beautiful music on this album but it’s bloated. It’s fifteen minutes too long but I don’t even know where to start with cutting tracks to make that happen. As good as it is, it still wears out its welcome for me. Beautiful music, though.

voice of an angel

Ruined, crying screaming throwing up. How does he come up with this shit man. 10/10

Clear talent but some songs felt so personal they were uncomfortable to listen to. As if Jeff recorded it for one person in particular, and I was intruding by hearing it myself.

Challenging listening with the vocals and guitar all over the place - unquestionably talented but also maybe lacking in cohesive vision

Dosta čudan album i lik, ali ne čudi obzirom na oca, život i cijelu priču. Tim Buckley je baš ostavio snažan dojam na mene, glazbeno mi je puno bliže nego Jeff. 2/5, 4/10

Genuinely one of the greatest albums I’ve ever heard. The emotion, the production, Jeff’s voice, all perfect.

Beautiful album! A low 5, but a 5 nonetheless. It has everything: great melodies, great singing, great guitar playing. Absolutely beautiful

Prachtig, echt geweldig! Hier hou ik van

Echte klassieker, zo veel emoties komen voorbij.

Nice well produced songs that are occasionally derivative and fall into the "tortured soul pouring immortal longings" category. May listen to it again in the future but no real highlights.

Ahh Grace, what can I say that hasn't been said already? One of the most beautifully bittersweet albums of all time. Interspersing tight and punchy Alt-Rock with heartbreaking atmospheric Singer-Songwriter tracks is so perfect especially for Jeff Buckley's vocal range and delivery. The album plays with space so well, using sparse sentimental sections to set up brutally poignant crescendos. The songwriting is absolutely next-level, simultaneously being incredibly romantic and tragically heartbreaking. There genuinely isn't a song I dislike on this record. Everything comes together for a brief moment in time to form unquestionable perfection. It's a travesty this is the only album we got from Jeff Buckley, as he was truly one of the greatest musical minds of all time.

4.6

epic

Wow, what a pleasant suprise. I only knew this as the hallelujah album and i expected songs in a similar vibe. But boy, was i wrong. Jeff also knows how to rock. Love the songwriting and his voice. Great lp!

hombre blanco gringo

damn, that man is horny. 3,5/5 + Eternal Life shocked me + Some Songs i really really like - First listen I disliked it until So Real, then it got good - Most of the album i Just don't Care for Fav: So Real, Hallelujah, Lover You Should've Come Over, Eternal Life, Forget Her Least Fav: Corpus Christi Carol, Dreams Brother, Grace, Last Goodbye

I bought this CD used back in the day and hated it because no other song on that album came close to being as good as “Last Goodbye,” which is a masterpiece. But listening to it again for the first time in 30 years, I hear how his vocal style (which annoyed me in 1995) influenced Radiohead. And once you compare him to Radiohead—who I like but they are difficult to listen to—well Jeff Buckley sounds as sweet and as accessible as Harry Styles. This album demands to be listened to and not just heard. If you give it your full attention, it will reward you. Prior to today, I would have described Grace as a single for Last Goodbye with ten B sides. But now that I’ve really listened to it, I appreciate how good his band was and how i think i could discover something new with every repeated listen. It’s not a five star album but it’s close.

VERY glad to see this pop up and actually revisited it not too long ago after watching the great documentary on him (Never Over). Have an idea of what score this gets already but will give it another listen start to finish to make sure! ❤️ Yeh, this track listing is ridiculous and ‘Mojo Pin’ gives such a good illustration of the layers, skill, variety, depth, eclectic mix of what’s about to come. LOVE. and then just casually goes into ‘Grace’ after that opener 🤯 Man, I ADORE this album and this man. More so, after the documentary, and knowing his perfectionism on each part of this album. Can feel and hear it in every aspect. Listened to it 3-4 times already today (and rewatched the doc!). What a man and what a range ❤️🙏

Haunting, beautiful record from a very talented artist who was taken way too soon. I had forgotten how great this album is without a throwaway track anywhere. Yes, his vocals can be over the top, maybe a little histrionic at times. .but it works for the songs. "Hallelujah" is an all time great cover and songs like "So Real," "Mojo Pin," and the title song are fantastic, brooding, and dark. The man could do many different styles as he shows on "Corpus Christie Carol" which is gorgeous. Love this album and it's very sad this was the only one released in his lifetime.

This is such a nighttime album, feel like i could never listen to it in the day. So atmospheric, and opens on a great note with the weird and singular Mojo Pin. Hallelujah deserves all the praise it gets as one of the best covers of all time, Buckley seriously honored one of Leonard Cohen's more poetic songs by lending it vocals that Cohen simply couldn't. I also love Lilac Wine and the rocking Eternal Life. This guy was almost as good of a guitarist as he was a singer, which is saying something. Gotta be one of the more tragic passings in music history, so much talent gone suddenly

Heartbreaking

Very long songs, very rock and roll

Was interested to go back and see if this still stands up. It feels like the route is album that could easily have aged prey badly. To be honest I can't imagine anyone releasing this now and having as much success. But the songs still work, good voice is still great and it's still a tragedy we didn't get to find out where he'd go with this

It was alright, nothing that really stood out, a couple nice songs but overall rather memorable necessarily that makes me want to listen again

ожиданія від альбома:3/10 на самом деле як він звучіть 10/10 НУ КАЙФ ВООБЩЕ Я НЕ ЗНАЮ ЧОГО Я РАНЬШЕ НЕ ПОСЛЗУАВ

What a tragic loss! His songs are so strong and heartbreaking

“Hallelujah” is just one of the assets of Buckley’s body of work. Great album.

So surprisingly good. Had never listened to this artist before. Will be adding to my library.

Jeff's version of Hallelujah has been regarded as the best version of the song!

Classic album, amazing singing obviously and the instrumentation is also very memorable. Very emotional album but there's some songs I don't come back to much here

I’m embarrassed to admit that when I saw this album come up I was not excited. The hallelujah guy? Yawn. But holy shit this is not what I was expecting. There’s some really great rock riffs on this album that caught me off guard, Mojo Pin and Eternal Life especially. Great stuff.

the voice if an angle fr

type of album that keeps getting better and better every time u listen to it

Oh let's *go*, this would be worth a 5 even if it was just the guitar line from Grace

Sorry, but i just dont get it. Ive listened to this album a few times now, and haven't gotten anything emotionally or enjoyably out of it - i know its meant to be one of the greats, but its just not my jam. Also, ive never liked Hallelujah in any of its forms, and that being the only song i can recall off of here is not helping.

Have to give it a 4 for the remix of Hallelujah on its own

I really couldn't get into this album

Would listen again

Inspireing with some big punch!

No, to je en od albumov, k sm vedla, da ga bom dobila in sm se spraševala kdaj. Večkrat sm ga že poslušala, ampak vedno ob nečem, npr. vožnji, pogovoru z nekom, tko da se veselim ga poslušat bolj podrobno. Pozabila sm že kok je v bistvu nežen prvi komad, dokler na koncu ne crescenda ("Mojo Pin"). "Grace" mi je pomojem z vsakim poslušanjem bolj všeč. Pikico grunge vpliva mogoč? "Last Goodbye" isto. Kar se tiče cover verzij komadov se mi zdi, da je bil Buckley odličen. Že "Lilac Wine" je huda verzija, njegov "Hallelujah" mi je pa en ljubših komadov ever. Ta chord progression, k je itak omenjen v samem komadu, mi je amazing. Pa v prejšnjem, "So Real" slišiš emocije v glasu. Po pa temu intense vrhuncu komada sledi tišina in počasen začetek v "Hallelujah". Super. Ok, "Corpus Christi Carol" ti res nakaže ker izjemen range je mel?! Po te pa "Eternal Life" zbudi iz tega dreamy falsetta s svojo agresivnostjo. Škoda, da je to edini studijski album.

A very good album, but I just don't really understand what it tries to be. That is probably on me, but it scores an average rating for now. 3/5

Wonderfully diverse, from the haunting and soaring wistful melodies of 'Corpus Christi Carol' to the heavy and unapologetic groove of 'Eternal Life.'

Simply put the album is beautiful, Jeff’s voice is beautiful and executes pain and beauty perfect. It’s an emotional album where you can almost feel what Jeff was going through when recording it. I’m in awe honestly.

This has always been ‘The one with Hallelujah’ but boy was I impressed with the whole album. Fantastic voice and tunes, tinged with retrospective melancholy as there could have been so much more.

This is terrible. Not idea why anyone would listen to this dreck

A fantastic 1994 album. Incredibly sad but powerful.

One of the singular greatest vocal recordings of all-time. A one album wonder due to his untimely passing. I mean really there are not enough good things to say about this album. The Hallelujah cover is one of the greatest covers of all-time. Lover You Should Come Over and Forget Her are both absolute heavyweights of songwriting.

incredibly beautiful. i’ve heard a few songs from this album like lover, you should’ve come over, grace and forget her but never did a full listen. the songs lilac wine and eternal life are incredible and truly encapsulate buckley’s nature as both an artist and a person.

Kind of a combo of The Cure and U2. I didn't hate it. Some songs I would listen yo on yhe radio while others I would change yhe station. I would not purchase anything but might shazam. Rate as a 3.

One of my all time favs :)

already listen but fkin masterpiece, jeff q coraje q te fueras tan pronto

a godsent album. current hyper fixation. still working on scoring standards

Beautiful!

5 pq es uno de los album fav de mi prima

I know it's considered a classic, I like don't love

Haunting, moving, thoughtful

A sad yet uplifting album with some beautiful songs, orignals and covers. It is a stunning debut made all the more poignant because the second never came.

Interesting album. At the start I wondered whether I was still listening to Radiohead but I enjoyed the twists and turns as the album evolved

One of those albums that I have to be in the right mood for. But he has an amazing ability to interpret a song (compare Lilac Wine and Hallelujah to any other cover you can find and his versions are better). Goodness only knows what levels he'd have achieved if he'd lived longer. What a loss.

Amazing voice, melancholic instrumentals

Favorite Track: So Real

A beautiful album and a new favourite of mine. I especially liked forget her

Great album. I love it

I wanna give it a higher rating, I really do. "Hallelujah" is just so fantastic, and it jump-started a reevaluation of that song and Leonard Cohen overall. But I didn't find any other songs to be even close to as good. The earlier songs almost got there, but the more electric songs at the end really turned me off. I will definitely do a re-listen and will share as a way to come back and revise my rating if I am currently wrong

"Lover, you should've come over"... I felt it! Loved this entire album!

Wasn't expecting much but what a great surprise this album was. Amazing voice and kudos to the production.

Banger

mardy

Really sad, like someone needed to ask him if he was okay.

Good album. Saved a track. Hallelujah threw me off

10/10, no notes, beautiful album, i miss him

IT'S NEVER OVEEEEEER

Favourites: 1. Forget Her 2. Lover, You Should've Come Over 3. Dream Brother Least Favourite: Corpus Christi Carol

Lindo. Brilhantemente lindo, este disco. Composições ternas e extensas, mas ainda mantendo um ar contido e introvertido, uma dança bonita. A voz de Buckley é supremamente potente, e as canções fazem completo uso de seu incrível alcance. Quando falo da ternura da voz de Buckley, guitarras potentes não são a primeira coisa que vêm à mente como o acompanhamento instrumental… mas é exatamente o que temos aqui. Acho ótimo esse contraste entre a aspereza dos instrumentais e a doçura dos vocais. Comparação manjada, mas Radiohead definitivamente pegou uma página do livro de Jeff em The Bends e OK Computer, dois discos que eu amo. O álbum, e talvez Jeff Buckley como um todo, flerta muito com a possibilidade de ser clichê. Sabe, o clichê do artista boêmio sofredor? E apesar disso, o álbum ainda traz muita originalidade, e é musicalmente alavancado por uma curadoria impressionante, ainda mais para um disco de estréia. Eu entendo quem se sente mal pensando na morte prematura do artista e em tudo que ele poderia ter feito em sua carreira. É uma sensação impossível de despistar, ela persiste toda vez que ouço qualquer canção de Buckley. Tenho uma opinião controversa, onde acredito que os covers são a parte mais fraca do álbum. A versão de Jeff de Lilac Wine não me agrada muito, acredito que a composição não é tão progressiva quanto o restante das canções, onde a voz de Buckley costuma crescer e diminuir organicamente e satisfatoriamente. Hallelujah é melhor, certamente, mas ainda não enxergo o hype que todo mundo coloca aqui, é uma composição bonita mas sinto falta de uma instrumentalização mais requintada. Queria ouvir mais composições originais dele, pois é claro que esse era um ponto fortíssimo de sua virtuosidade, só ouvir a faixa So Real, que aparentemente foi gravada em apenas um único take, e você verá que tenho razão. Forget Her, Mojo Pin, Grace, Lover You Should’ve Come Over… O cara era bom. Poderia ser um pouco mais curto, mas já comecei a procurar pelo em ovo. Não é meu disco favorito nem nada assim, mas os pontos altos do álbum são inimaginavelmente altos, e os pontos baixos são no máximo poças rasas. Eu até acredito que esse álbum seja superestimado, especialmente desde que as gerações mais novas o redescobriram através de agressivos algoritmos, mas sendo completamente justo, isso não retira o mérito do disco. Um 5 legal. 5/5

Creo que los inicios de las canciones son muy buenos pero a medida que avanzan las cancio es pierden un poco su camino principal, aunque se recupera esa armonía en las últimas canciones cuando se crean mezclas mejor pensadas y sin tantos cambios abruptos

I mean come on it's JB. Vocals are killer on this, I mean truthfully everything is. Hallelujah is still one of the best covers of all time. Vocals are a clear inspiration for Myles Kennedy and God Bless him for that. easily 9/10

I've been wanting to listen to this album for a while but didn't get the chance yet. Some parts sound very familiar. His voice sound soft yet raw. This album has a very unique sense of style and I will definitely listen to some of these songs again. This is definitely an album that you should listen to at least once in your life. This album is an emotional masterpiece!

I loved hearing Hallelujah in context. It is crazy to hear a song I know so intimately situated in between songs I have never heard. But the whole thing had a nice flow and overall a great listen.

Admittedly like most people I only knew hallelujah from this album. Throughout my listen, I was really surprised that while wonderful, it didn’t even make my top 3 song choices. Wonderful album that will be added to my regular rotation.

boundless emotion

This is like the ur-90s coffeehouse singer Really not my thing

Perfect, no notes. Forgotten how good some of these songs are

Lover Come Over in my opinion, and generally accepted as the best song in this album. I personally find the rest of the album underwhelming.

Hallelujah.... evening backing music

Just wow. What an extraordinary talent.

𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦 shows just how astonishingly flexible Jeff Buckley’s voice was — probably the most versatile and emotionally expressive in 90s indie rock. He moves effortlessly between tenderness, intensity and near-operatic soaring, giving the album a sense of unpredictability and depth. The songs range from intimate to explosive, all tied together by his distinctive phrasing and sense of drama. His version of 𝗛𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗹𝘂𝗷𝗮𝗵 is so fully inhabited and heartfelt that it arguably surpasses Cohen’s original. Listening to 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦 always carries a bittersweet edge: it’s a stunning debut, and it’s hard not to wonder what else he might have created.

Belo disco! Sensível e com muita técnica. QoA Adonis New.

Não gostei e não escutei inteiro mas entendo pq gostam

Very good, reminds me a lot of the original Hadestown album, and his voice sounds really similar to the guy who plays Orpheus. The guitar riffs were cool, and I liked the general vibe and tone. The highlight is obviously "Lover, You Should Have Come Over"; I don't think I've ever heard such an honest, painful look at a relationship from hindsight, especially from a man. It's just such a yearning song; it's incredible. And the see-sawing between maturity and immaturity that Buckley feels in the song, I also found incredibly relatable. That song in particular feels like it fits right into my life right now and this odd new taste that I'm developing... I might have to watch a video or two on this album to understand it fully. I'm not very good at interpreting art, but I enjoyed it; I would listen again. Oh! And his cover of Hallelujah felt like a really perfect addition with the tone, and I thought it was a really cool vibe for that song!

Not my typical listen, but this album has range. Angst, fun, head bangers, and some softness. This is quite a sad album if you listen closely. It’s the processing of a heartbreak. Last goodbye vs Lilac Wine especially painfully contrast each other and show the path of healing - and how it’s awfully not linear.

Dark and moody with sultry vocals. A little dreary for my taste, but pretty solid

Not my favorite.

7.8

obra magna. todos que deram uma estrela pra esse álbum vão morrer e vão para o inferno!

Lots going on Sometimes very larger than life feel. Hallelujah Made me Google John Wayne Gacy to get even more gruesome details. Did not like that. Also felt all over the place so didn’t give me that album feel.

Kende hem van lover you should've come over maar voor de rest mooi album maar niet hellemaal mijn nummers

Hallelujah and Lilac Wine- top songs. Slow listening, a bit boring. Corpus Christi Carol was just plain weird.

Cash out

A life where I don't give this five stars wouldn't be worth living.

Holy crap! This album was so awesome. One of the very few that demanded my presence from the beginning. The songs are so emotive and the sound is all-encompassing. Such great use of build-up, release, and serenity. His cover of Hallelujah has always been a beautiful song, but in the context of the album it is amazing. This instantly is one of my favorite albums, after one listen.

you do know him

The guy has a nice voice, but I feel like some of the hype is amplified by his untimely death. Too much Mariah Carey-esque flourishes for my liking.

I wish that I would’ve gotten this album later when I knew how I wanted to review them. But this album is really good genuinely a blend of different genres with beautiful lyrics and expression of yearning.

good way to start off the list!

Overall: I’ve heard 1/11 songs before. 5/10 it’s not my thing, but I guess if I squint I can see why gen x white men get off on it. Will not be buying this one or re-listening unless I’m accidentally overdosed by an edible.

one of the best albums of all time yep

I know that album

Favorite track: Lover, You Should’ve Come Over

My Lord, Buckley's voice on this is incredible. Some of the songs are 5s on here ("Lover, You Should've Come Over" is so so so good) but I wasn't rapt the entire album.

I get the melodramatic critique, but the bass line on Last Goodbye is one of many great touches on this album

Nice

perfect! loved this album, 10/10

So peak

The production on this album is something special. It’s raw, polished, balanced, and dynamic. One of the most incredible pieces of music to ever blessed my ears.

Devastating, can see why it’s a classics.

HALLELUJAH

I love his voice but would hardly relisten

The dude had the GOAT voice.

This was my favourite album of all time at one point in my life. There was something truly special about that man, RIP

While I neither need or want to hear “Hallelujah” again as long as I live, the rest of the album still feel strikingly singular, even considering how influential it has been. For how often Buckley’s keening falsetto and lovelorn lyricism have been imitated by indie bands over the years, few if any of them were able to create albums as feral as Grace feels. It truly sounds like an album he had to wrench out of himself because not doing so would be unbearable.

This album is a masterpiece. The amount of emotion portrayed through each song is unmatched. You can hear and even feel his emotions through his singing, making listening a melancholy experience. The instrumentals aren’t super complex, but they do a great job at supporting the vocals and helping them create a bigger impact. I also love the use of low guitar riffs and the organ throughout the tracks, adding a unique texture. My favorite track is Forget Her because of the sheer emotion in his voice and the build within the instrumentals at the end. It’s always the song I find myself belting whenever it comes on. It never fails to get me in my feels.

Odlican album, bas mi je bio prikladan u trenutku slusanja, ubacio me u neki “mood”. Trebala bi ga poslusat ponovo, ima par pisama koje su mi bile bas super.

This album left me dazed and confused.

I love his voice but would hardly relisten

Some nice songs

Easily my favourite Album I've listened to so far through this. My favourite tracks are Lover, You Should Come Over and So Real. Buckleys Version on Hallelujah is also incredible, but I feel like its hard to fuck up a pretty much perfect song. His voice is incredible, just goes straight into my heart and soul. Makes me sad for all the music we never got to hear him sing.

Bit boring

Outstanding album but is it just perhaps insanely sequenced? Starting with perhaps the most formless track on the album and playing the show stopping Hallelujah in the middle so as overshadow all of side and make Corpus Christie Carol, a great track in it’s own right feel like a bit more if the same by coming in just a couple of tracks later. The same songs in a different order… and you’ll maybe shape an album that’s already pretty good into the best of the 90s? I can’t quite figure out Buckley in a way. He feels like an anachronism. Sometimes feeling like a lost folk rocker from the late 60s like Nick Drake or his father. Sometimes pointing towards the chamber folk / indie work of the early 2010s. In the mid 90s there’s not really any good comparison to be made. Highlights: Grace, Last Goodbye, So Real, Lover You Should Come Over, Eternal Life, Corpus Christie Carol

Bardzo mi się podoba 💖 zapisałam sobie ten album

Visceral and beautiful

i have listened to this a dozen times over the last 25 years as so many people love it. i don't see what they see but it's miles ahead of his dad's shit

Feel like I should feel something from these songs but I just don't really feel anything.

Beautiful, tragic, an all round incredible album. RIP Jeff Buckley

raw soulful album. gets you invested in the song, beautiful to listen to

An incredible album that reaches into your chest and plucks at your soul like it's a string on a harp

Nothing too memorable about this one. Greta voice though.

9/10 - This is a Top 30 album for me. Love the songwriting, the music, the vocals. One skip in my opinion.
