I cant believe that I never once posted a thread about him... his genius... Someone who passed way too prematurely....Someone for a brief time who made such an immediate impact....
I just have always loved Jeff Buckley's music... He had one of the most purest voices ever...it definitely was an envy to several others.....
Just unfortunate he perished just as quickly as he emerged onto the musical scene.... Too many ironies... mainly how his vastly talented father, Tim Buckley also died at an extemely young age.... Both went way before the reached their respective peaks......
Also, one of Jeff Buckley's most epical songs was morbidly title "Last Goodbye", if as though he envisioned his impending doom........
Just check-out these clips from youtube.com and you must close your eyes because this is the closest you'd come to someone as so angelic sounding:

I intentionally just included live clips since it proves how natural sounding his voice was.. that he didnt need any alterations/effects for him to establish the asbolute perfect vocal delivery........It's again... one of this what if questions... what if he didnt drown on that one summer's day? He would have had a legendary career, but albiet....despite that it was abruptly cut short... I consider him a legend regardless.. his legacy will never cease.....
