Jeff Buckley: 'The only way to really make it—anywhere—is to put every bit of your being into the thing that only you can provide. The only angle is the art that you choose, that only you can provide. And to do that, you have to be quiet for a long time and find out what you bring forth. You have to know what's in yourself—all your eccentricities, all your banalities, the full flavor of your woe and your joy. What does it look like? What does it feel like? What makes it different from everybody else's? It's totally subjective. You're just given the task of bringing it up.'
Rest in peace, Jeff.

Hallelujah Lyrics:
Well I heard there was a secret chord That David played, and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do ya? Well it goes like this The fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah … Well Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you And she tied you to her kitchen chair And She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah … Well baby I've been here before I’ve seen this room and I've walked this floor (You Know)I used to live alone before I knew ya And I've seen your flag on the marble arch And Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah … Well there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me do you? But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah … Well maybe there's a God above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah … Hallelujah … Hallelujah ...
