I'm old, and tired, and I can't find Jeff Buckley, so

Good night, and I'll leave with the original. Leonard Cohen.

1. I didn't do this right.

Screwitall, I'm going to bed. The original is the first in the line up.

3. That song ALWAYS makes me cry.

Especially the lines "Love is not a victory march/It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah." I had tears streaming down my face throughout that entire video.

Who does the version that is in the movie Shrek? I don't think it's Jeff Buckley, the guy in the Shrek version has a slightly deeper voice. (And yes, I cry during that part too.)

what? i'm a girl.

4. Some of remember his Dad.

Tim Buckley began as a starry-eyed folky but moved into exciting, experimental music. Then he died, much too young.



I'm also glad we've still got Leonard. Songs of Innocence are lovely, but Songs of Experience will get you through the night.
