Hallelujah - cracking song, the one song i never get tired of trying to learn ont guitar, still cant ragging do it though!!!!

Sometimes, certain voices are destined to be taken long before their time.

 

If only he'd had some armbands.

 

What a waste

If only he'd had some armbands.

RIP jeff

 

Twas in poor taste really.

 

I must confess only 1 piece of recorded music has ever reduced me unexplainedly to tears and it was Hallelujah.

 

A soaring, extra-terrestrial voice on that mon.

Am I missin' summat 'ere?

Who the f?ck is it?

Sorry for being a heathen

mainly spot on

Shouldn't the thread's title contain one of his own lyrics? Rather than The Smiths?

Blimey...I thought it was only me who loved that album...

I didn't realise there were laws about it.

 

He did cover it, though, just like he covered Hallelujah.

 

Or should nobody have mentioned that, either?

Legend, his live in chicago dvd is top notch, Hallelujah (his version) is the most awe-inspiring piece of music I've heard. I usually play a bit of it as a soundcheck, I'd never gig it though.

 

RIP

I prefer the original Happy Mondays version anyway.

haven't got a jar of glue who he is, what he's done, or when he died...

 

was he killed in a knife attck in London?

Saw him at Glastonbury in '95. Wasn't really into him then and only stayed for a couple of songs, did have a cracking voice.

 

As for Playing it Kent White can play a mean version - not that hard, just stick a capo on the third fret, makes it easier you just won't be able to sing along to it unless you've got a similar range to Mr Buckley

Noticed on this vid that Buckley has the capo on the 5th fret

Beat me to it, it's on 5th fret on the chicago dvd and thats the version i learned, easier to sing it the step down at 3rd though, but the guitar doesn't sound as good.

Moving this to geeks if it carries on in this vein.

You'll be pleased to hear you were 1/20 favourite to be first with that.
