I have no advice for anybody except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate.
Jeff Buckley

I'm convinced I got signed because of who I am. And it makes me sad.

I don't write my music for Sony. I write it for the people who are screaming down the road crying to a full-blast stereo.

Image
But music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that it’s the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears.
Jeff Buckley
Image
Somebody asked me what I wanted to do. I just said I wanted to…just to give back to it what it’s given me. And to meet all the other people that are doing it…just to be in the world, really.

Music is endless and even though I've heard a whole bunch of music from so many different places and fallen in love countless times with all kinds of different music.There's still something about it,I guess it's called Freedom.

I'm lying in my bed, blanket is warm, this body will never keep me safe from harm. I still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal. Touch my skin to keep me whole. If only you'd come back to me. To feel you at my side, wouldn't need no Mojo Pin to keep me satisfied.

If you do anything regularly for a while, sooner or later the weirdoes will show up.

I like a spirituality with a God that knows how to drive a car, that knows how to take his girl to the dance club, dance all night, have a little drink, kiss the kid when they come back in and go to sleep. God doesn't need a chauffeur-- he needs to drive himself.

Fate is gonna find you in your glass of champagne.

I've already created my own thing.
Jeff Buckley
Image
Your soul can fly outward, stringed to your ribcage like a shimmering kite in the shape of an open hand. Be still and listen to the evidence of your own holiness.
Jeff Buckley
Image
A tune has to resonate with whatever is happening around it.
Jeff Buckley
Image
Music is my mother and my father it is my work and my rest...my blood...my compass...my love.
Jeff Buckley
Image
Words are beautiful but restricted. They're very masculine, with a compact frame. But voice is over the dark, the place where there's nothing to hang on: it comes from a part of yourself that simply knows, expresses itself, and is.
Jeff Buckley

I resent the fact that a parental warning sticker has to be included on an album as cover art. To me that's censorship.

Time to write and sing, to laugh, to listen, to discover, to cry, to love music.

my kingdom for a kiss upon your shoulder lover you should have come over-

There is no good singing, there is only present and absent.

Music should be like making love. Sometimes you want it soft and tender, another time you want it hard and aggressive.
