The only good thing about Hallelujah is that its title reminds me of Halleluwah.

It is a good song though. Especially that bit where he says "hallelujah"

Are those supposed to be great Buckley songs or are you saying that his voice isn't worth squandering?

Btw when I say squander, I don't mean that he doesn't display his talents, I mean that he uses his good voice to accompany the most extremely boring music.

I see you added a third song. I tried to imagine being white enough to think that those were enjoyable listens, and I was blinded by the mental image alone.

I actually keep coming back to Jeff Buckley's albums. And for 3-4 songs his beautiful voice manages to carry them, but at some point the fact that I'm listening to some lame-ass alternative rock just can't be ignored anymore.
Then I usually switch to his dad. Similar, even greater, voice and some truly amazing music.

I guess I'm the same way since I'm listening to Lorca after trying to be open minded about the tracks Chula posted (I will say that the first one he posted had a cool intro but then the rest of the song happened).

It doesn't even have to be Tim's experimental stuff.

Yours is dated and no one is interested in it?
