i also think it was insanely brave of him to cover 'song to the siren' seeing as elizabeth frasier pretty much owns that song. his cover version is second only to hers.

If you'd heard the original Tim Buckley version, you wouldn't be saying that ;)

That is definitely my favorite. Frusciante's a close second.

i've been listening to tim buckley since i was 12 years old. i discovered jeff buckley through tim.

i said 'cover version', not original. have you heard frasier's version? look it up on youtube. this mortal coil - song to the siren.

Yeah i've heard it. Used great in Lost Highway.

Still, it's my least favorite version.

are you saying...i can't believe i'm saying this, but are you saying you don't like elizabeth frasier's version? i just expect everyone who has heard that song to absolutely love it. i know that sounds really fucking stupid, expecting you to like it and all.

john's version is pretty good, but elizabeth - wow, it has me in tears all the time. jeff barely spoke of his father but he even said how much he loved elizabeth's version. also he was completely tapping that for a while hahaha.

I never said I didn't like it. I just like the other versions more.
