Jeff Buckley #3: Because Everyone Here Wants Jeff Buckley

Welcome to the Jeff Buckley appreciation thread!











The first three shamelessly stolen from the Jeff community on LJ. I ask you not to hotlink, though: please host them on your own server! And credit should go to the wonderful fan on the abovementioned community. I'm too lazy to find the actual post, so I think you'll have to do it

Hallelujah will be entering the UK charts again at no.3. The X-Factor winner (UK's version of American Idol) has covered the song. Her version is at the Christmas no.1 spot at the moment

Let's hope Jeff's version beats her .

Also Best of Album coming out next month

Thanks for the new thread. Please can I be added to the list?

His version of Hallelujah will always be the best. I'm so happy it's going to be in the top 10, everyone should hear his version.

And I hate it. Doesn't help that I seriously didn't want her to win anyway.

I'm listening to JB's version now - nothing will ever beat it.

I doubt it. It's like Peter Kay said in the paper, Simon Cowell is the Grinch that stole Christmas number 1 ever since The X Factor existed.

What I didn't realise was that Simon Cowell not only is raking in the money from Alexandra's version, but he also owns the rights to the original and Jeff Buckley's version, so with all 3 doing so well just imagine how much money he is getting.

They said that in the midweek charts Jeff Buckleys version was only 1000 behind Leona who was in 2nd so fingers crossed he can at least get the no 2 spot off of Leona. Still wish he was No. 1 though.

I haven't posted here in ages, but I had my iPod on shuffle the other day and 'Forget Her' came on and now... I might be getting into a wee little Jeff phase.

I totally agree. Where's the fun in the mystery of who's gonna get No.1 anymore? It's not fun anymore. I'm glad people are finally taking a stand about it and trying not to let X Factor rule it.

Yeah I only just found out today. No wonder he doesn't mind the other versions doing so well and some people buying Jeff Buckley's version over Alex's.

Simon owns the rights Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah? I didn't know.

Well, I haven't listened to this X-Factor winner's version, but I've heard it's terrible.
But I don't care about charts so I don't care about how well she's doing in the charts.

I just realized I'm not on the list. Could you add me please?
Oh, I don't think I've ever posted it here, so here's a Jeff Buckley fanart I made a while ago:
