Jeff Buckley - 2) Grace



Grace, being the title track, sums up what the entire album is about. That our entire lives we are waiting to die. We all know our time will come and we just stew in existence until it comes. Not that life needs to be rife with depression but once you realize the truth, you can go beyond it.

This is one of two tracks Jeff wrote early on with Gary Lucas. Jeff reworked the song for the Grace album but the ghost of Lucas' work lingers. This is one of two tracks on the album that demonstrate Jeff's vocal range and elasticity. /'I feel them drown my name'/'So easy to know, Forget with this kiss'/'I'm not afraid to go but it goes so slow'/
