No 'forget her'??
I love Jeff Buckley and I listen to him 24/7, so I decided to buy the CD so I could listen to it in my car. Only problem is the CD version doesn't have "forget her" which is one of my favorite songs. If you go to the album on Spotify though you can listen to it.

A great voice silenced too soon
This man did indeed die too young, tragically, he drowned in a swimming accident shortly after this album was released. But, this one work, is so transcendent that it deserves a place in the collection of anyone who truly loves music and understands its ability to move one's soul and emotions beyond the mundane life that one ordinarily lives. Every song on this album is a true gem which becomes more beautiful with each listening, as one is able to hear it more clearly, applying the jewelers loupe of one's ears to catch each nuance.I hardly know where to begin, so I'll start with the song that is my favorite on this album: a song which is rapidly becoming one of my favorites of all the music I've ever listened to - 'Hallelujah', written by Leonerd Cohen some time ago. I first heard this tune as part of the soundtrack of 'The Lord of War' The opening sound one hears is of Jeff sighing deeply before starting to sing with only an unaccompanied acoustic guitar melody that can only be described as haunting in its simplicity. The first words of the song:Well, I heard there was a secret chordThat David played and it pleased the LORDBut, you don't really care for music, do ya?Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifthThe minor fall and the major liftThe baffled King composing, HallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahThe religious references simply drip from this song as the acoustic guitar continues to echo in the background.From its overtly religious beginning the song moves into the story of a broken relationship with a lover who meant more than anyone in the singer's life. The heartbreak is so evident that he who can listen to this song without shedding at least a tear or two has no humanity left within him:Well, baby I've been here beforeI've seen this room and I've walked this floorYa know, I used to live alone before I knew yaAnd I've seen your flag on the marble archOur love is not a victory marchIt's a cold and it's a broken hallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahWell, there was a time when you let me knowWhat's really going on belowBut now you never show that do me. Do ya?But remember when I moved in youAnd the holy dove was moving, tooand every breath we drew was hallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahMaybe there's a God aboveBut, all I've ever learned from lovewas how to shoot somebody who outdrew yaAnd it's not a cry that you hear at nightIt's not somebody who's seen the lightIt's a cold and it's a broken hallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahHallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujahThis album is worth the price simply for this one song. But, the thing is that there are no weak songs on this CD, making it a bargain at any price. Beyond that, though, this is the type of thoughtful, caring, and insightful music upon which no price can really be placed: it is priceless, timeless. Jeff Buckley obviously made this album for the sheer love of his art. The craftsmanship and effort of the making shows through every note and line, every word, and every thought.
