You know the ones - you hear it and everything else stops, fades away until there's just that song playing directly into you and reminding you of something you can't quite place.
Last time that happened was the start of the year, "Don't Speak in English" by Chip Taylor & Carrie Rodriguez.
And it's happened again, last song a CD done for me.
"Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley.
Just Buckley and his guitar, plain and simple. An incredible voice, makes Thom Yorke seem like the gimpy student-wannabe he is.
A soaring, soulful voice with a beautiful, sensual cover of a Leonard Cohen song.
Check it out if you've never heard it.
"Well, maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
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"

Jeff Buckley never sounds like any sort of fool.
Warbling genius, maybe.

That made me laugh. Several times, a quietly appreciative chuckle.
Is she the "celeb" that was charged with assaulting some woman in a nightclub toilet?
Come to Harlow, there are several "clubs" that are full of shiny-faced drunken racists fighting in toilets.

Nope. I said it's sad that Aurora is the only song that's one of *those* songs for me (unless I completely misunderstood, which is possible).
Matt.
Matt.
If you're trying to compare Foo Fighters to Jeff Buckley, Rikoss, there shall be grave consequences.
The only real song like that I've come across is Aurora on There is Nothing Left to Lose.
Which is really quite sad.
