And now it's the turn of lugubrious dirge-creator Leonard Cohen's repertoire to get an absolute stand-out cover of 'Hallelujah' by the sadly short lived Jeff Buckley.
"lugubrious dirge-creator Leonard Cohen" "Suzanne" is the most miserable noise ever and the Buckley version of Hallelujah doesn't get it into my top twenty . . .
Unfortunately for such a short lived talent, Jeff Buckley is more or less responsible for Radiohead and Coldplay and their ilk...
ReplyDelete"Last Goodbye" is the best song on "Grace" his one and only completed album
I must try that one.

Yes, it's music to slit your wrists to!
