drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow

Jeff Buckley would have been 40 years old today. I have been listening to his records all day and feel an almost unbearable melancholy.

He's had an immense influence on current music and also, he had an immense influence on me personally. I loved him, I still love him. Grace is a record that everyone - and especially, every woman - should own. It is a thing of great beauty. A recording that will make you cry, every time. I can't imagine life without it. I am serious.

It's so sad to watch this video knowing now, that he wouldn't be around much longer.

My god. That voice. It's impossible not to get goosebumps.
