Jeff Buckley - Eternal Life Lyrics

How do you know that life completely goes? The many worlds theory could very well be true, an infinite amount of alternate worlds under the same sun, each based on opposite decisions we or others have made in life. The brain is a lot more intelligent than we all know and its neurons power the universe. Just because the body gets burned or buried doesn't mean the mind stays, and the reason there's nothing before birth is because it's the start. If you look at the worst case scenario of there being nothing, nothing is still something, a concept of what is. Dimensions, wormholes, consciousness, eternal life, the void and more. Open your minds people. Near death experiences mostly always mention a light, that my friends is your destination. Listen to the end of the track Iowa by Slipknot, it's scary.

Aguante el Duende Carlos 🍀

twitch nos cago el stream del nuene comarcaaaaaa

The Bass makes this soooo Heavy

literally my favorite song ever.

it would be difficult for me to find better lyrics, or music for that matter, in any song I know. A Masterpiece!

I keep coming back for that fat fucking bass

Jeff Buckley 27
Jim Morrison 27
Eternal Legends

Jeff died at 30.

JEFF : "All I want to do is love everyone." : BUCKLEY

I love the grunge vibes from this one!

Nothing grunge on this song, pal.

Lyrics

Eternal life is now on my trail
Got my red glitter coffin, man, just need one last nail
While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you?
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal,
Angel
Racist everyman, what have you done?
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
Oh crown my fear your king at the point of a gun
All I want to do is love everyone
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you?
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal
There's no time for hatred, only questions
What is love, where is happiness, what is life, where is peace?
When will I find the strength to bring me release?
Tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said?
Man, it sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
I've got a message for you and your twisted hell
You better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal
Angel yeah
Angel, unh, angel, unh

thank uuuuuu

there is a flaming red horizon that scerams all of our names.

MELANIE Townsend ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

dırı dırı dırı dırı

can't stop addicted to the shin dig
chop top he says i'm gon...


sorry, wrong song.

La Comarca estuvo acá

A genius so soon back down.. ..
Feel you this power in his play , his voice , and his intensity
R i p Mr Jeff Buckley 💖🙏💖🤘

Fucking amazing.

Sounds like something muse would make. He influenced a lot of artist.

porfin encontre el tema de duende

I picture Muse going to their Origin of Symmetry producer with this record under the arm: "We want to sound like this. But just the last song".

There's no time for hatred, only questions
What is love, where is happiness, what is life, where is peace?
When will I find the strength to bring me release?

DUENDE LIVE!

I have no idea which version I love more... This version from Grace or the "Road Version" from the single... Tough call. Both are amazing.

The thumping, thundering bass in this song is surely Jeff's paean to grunge. Awesome.

Grace is the complete album. It's soaked with every emotion. The covers are superb and the original song writing is sublime. This song just rocks! No compromise. My favourite album of all time.

This song blows me away every time I hear it... 24 years and counting!

My project in Manhattan was for a couple of years, I left that city kicking and screaming...

All I did was to live and work in Manhattan, this music is still glued to me.

IN SA NO

Happy 52nd birthday Jeff

Chris Cornell definitely listened to this intently.

Chris Cornell started his musical career long time before Jeff.

@Anki Hansen you hear buckleys influence on Chris in audioslave

I suspect they were both looking at robert plant as a main influence

CAN'T STOP ADDICTED TO THE SHINDIG

Can we take a moment to appreciate the bass

9/4/2018 at this point 44 who just don't get it SAD!

La comarca esta presente, se termino el stream que sad

el duendee viejoo❤🍀

After listening to the live in Chicago version of many times, this just sounds slow

I still remember the first time hearing this song... Every time I hear it it takes me back 🌊♥️

I love that bass

Leon russel and John Mayer

This makes me think of the crow, sounds what I picture the Eric Dravens band sounding like

*ANGEL*

Nueneeeee

Joeyabels100 brought me here.  Thanks man!

Beauty to my ears. Magic.

Nueeeenneeeeeeee

can't stop by rhcp was released on 2002 this was on 1994 lol

5 steps to eternal life
https://youtu.be/GC7JfeXCWCg

Awesome bass on this

The drummer was incredible too. Full of amazing nuance.

Nice Mayhem cover.

Only Jeff could have an album with a song like Corpus Christi Choir on it and then something upbeat and more funky like this. The man could really do it all

That hi-hat groove though

lmao, almost funk metal

forever Jeff

Eternal love

It will be twenty years since Jeff's marvellous voice was silenced forever

I saw him perform at the now defunct Astoria venue, London in 1995, and he was on
the cusp of an exciting wave. Like his late father Tim, he had an astonishing vocal range,
and he had a band that could match his incredible talent.
This was my favourite track from the only official album he made, when he was alive.

Like Amy Winehouse, he was a brilliant talent whose life was cut too brutally short.

Thank you +

I can't decide whether i like this version or the live version more.

To be honest, this the only song i don't like in the album.

My favourite Jeff Buckley song, has been since I first listened to his album in (not sure) 95 or 96 ish. I can remember trying to get my friends to like Jeff and no one wanted to know about him. Then later on, everyone was a JB fan! Which in it's own circumstance is sad and wonderful at the same time.

Sounds like Muse mixed with Jane's Addiction lol

Anthony Duran you mean muse and jane's addiction sound like Jeff. Many current artists recycled his sound.

Nah. Jane's Addiction's first album was released on 1987. It sounds like early Jane's.

Can't stop, addicted to the shin dig
Chop Top, he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation

oh wait wrong song

Nicolás Riveros Haha so true !

YES THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING.

Saaaameee thoughts

AAAAAAYYYYYY

Tell me where is the love in what your Prophet has said?

Proof Jeff would be a Trump voter

What!? That line is a dig at religion, referencing how so many religions claim to be based on the principles of love, equality, freedom and peace and then condemn other religious groups and even condone or create violence towards them, or limit the civil rights of minorities such as homosexuals. If anything, it surely proves he was a liberal.

I was joking bruh

+Daniel T sorry. I find it quite hard to interpret sarcasm online.

Eternal life a his songs...💖💖💖1gen 2017

Duende plebs over here? #DuendeOutro

"THIS IS A SONG ABOUT…IT’S AN ANGRY SONG. LIFE’S TOO SHORT AND TOO COMPLICATED FOR PEOPLE BEHIND DESKS AND PEOPLE BEHIND MASKS TO BE RUINING OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES, INITIATING FORCE AGAINST OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES, ON THE BASIS OF THEIR INCOME, THEIR COLOR, THEIR CLASS, THEIR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS, THEIR WHATEVER"

Best comment I've read all year !!!

From start to finish, one of the greatest rock songs ever recorded!

URKillingme100 no doubt. it's the chariot upon which Buckley rode into the pantheon of the rock gods to take his rightful place.

icecreamforcrowhurst - that description will run through my head like a music video every time I hear this song now.

A lot of musicians die after their creative peak, and of course it's sad, BUT:

You get the feeling this guy was just getting started.

You get the feeling?? Of course he was just starting out. What we've all missed out on I just can't even think about .

@Laura yeah he could have been one of the best musicians around today! we'll never know though. But i kind of believe people die when they are supposed to die. Hope that doesnt upset anyone its just my belief.

@Simon0 whatever our thoughts are it's our musical loss x

Why’d you have to ruin my day with this truth?

@Simon0 Lul

It's never too late to realize what world are we live in Angel :)

miss u jeff.

LOVE this guy, great music

Rich words from a dead man

James Franco should star as Jeff in a movie, that'd be awesome!

Matthew Lewis

what would the movie be about? a tragedy? a talent gone too soon? no thanks. too predictable.

I can't believe that hasn't happened yet!

He does look just like him

Have you seen the one with Penn Badgley playing JB?
Good stuff!

Such a similar sound to the RHCP's.

+Alex G H Sansbury Sounds like Can't Stop

+Alex G H Sansbury is more like Silverchair

+LucasLetsPlays well this song was made before, so actually can't stop sounds like this track

it's maybe why i love this one

It is the sound of the bass that is reminiscent to "Give it Away" by RHCP

Sounds like a message to ISIS. Jeff Buckley predicted his own death through Grace.

+Derek Henkel it could as easily be a message to christians, but also for anyone who bear racist, homophobic beliefs.

"If peace is not for everyone, then no one can have it"

you Derek, are seriously deluded.

It's a huge "FU" to religion as a whole really.

Honestly, I have an official guitar music note book to most of his songs, and this one has the coolest chords and progressions; I just love how it all goes, it's awesome.

It just makes me sad he never made much more.

Of course I love guitar parts to Vancouver, and Sky is a Landfill.

Just so unique and creative. He really managed to do something compeltely different in a world of bland imitators. Most rock songs now are simply some licks and maybe big power chords, but this song is so much more detailed and complex. You almost don't hear it all when it's being played though. Very subtle I guess.

+ryshenton Any chance you have a decent link to these progressions/chords?

All the tabs I can find are really simple open/power chords etc.

Thanks!

Well, I don't know if it's that "great" but I just thought that some of things he did were pretty novel and interesting. That's the thing, it doesn't stray too far from being a typical hard rock composition; but it had some real cool ideas without being 'wanky' and all about 'solos' and shit. It's a physical book I own, though. I can tab it later this week, maybe, since it's not been done justice, I guess.

@ryshenton That would be awesome if you get a chance to! I'd really appreciate it.

Hey, I was wondering if you ever got a chance to tab out Eternal Life from the book you have? Would be so grateful!

@ryshenton Hey did you manage to tab out the song? 🤘

Sounded like tool for like the first 30 seconds....

+tylerloveskorn And there's a heavier live version of that song too.

+tylerloveskorn or Dont Stop by RHCP

+Karim Bawazir I think you mean Can't Stop :)

@vvrath Damn, I didn't even realize that, my bad. and thanks for correcting me

I think he is one of the best male musicians to have ever lived

And Lenny Kravitz :)

Definitely THE BEST

Okay, he's pretty good, but I wouldn't go that far.

Samantha Crooks one of the best soloist to be precise

not necessarily male only ...., ha, ha, ha;

This has got to be my favourite song of the century. That vocal... the emotion... that groove... that arrangement... Far out.

That intro sounds remarkably like the one to Can't Stop by the Peppers. Or rather, the other way around

@Smorkser there is a huge difference imo, different rhythm as well. all those effects make it remarkably different to me.

+ Smorkser Yeah this was released in 94. Cant Stop was 2002

Smorkser mix them and wonder what you'd get

This was well before dude

I tell you what this is: HEAVY METAL SOUL - and the metal in it is gold. The heaviness and lightness intertwined; presented by a being that called music his father and mother, just like Saint Francis of Assisi called the moon and death his sisters so we can better understand that all manifestations of reality have a nurturing and generous  property as our own family. It is for us to pay tribute to these things and Jeff payed tribute to music by setting poetry in motion by means of sound sculptures. He himself said poetry came to him first. This stresses in my mind that poetry is a critically important testimonial that we are all sublime, our inner depth is cosmic as the universe itself. HUMANS CANNOT BE ENGINEERED. Hence as communities we pull the sublime time and time again from wherever normalized society may have subjugated it, by not paying for it or giving it air time. Nevertheless the sublime emerges through its emergent properties; Because we are in this life to share wonders with each other in acts of generosity. Such as sharing the answers of the questions others place to us. What is love? Where is happiness?; What is Life? Where is the peace?  LOVE IS: Friendship and Admiration; HAPPINESS IS: In giving happiness to others ; LIFE IS: Through our craft paying tribute through excellence to the trades we love, so we can set in motion wonders, give wonders to others, empower others for wonders. THE PEACE IS: At realizing and putting in to action love, happiness and and life.

Thank you Lewis C. Your wise words have helped tremendously. 🙏✌🎶

That guy is an eternal legend. So unique and authentic music. 

Jebus. That note he hits and holds at 4.22. The finest vocal moment I ever heard. Gives me a shiver every time I hear it (and I've heard it thousands of times).

+Beggar Wall His father did millions of better vocal moments

+matteo campus Go listen to his father then.

You should do it as well

The end of Grace, I think, is even better.

lol... great but nothing special... listen Judas Priest - Blood Red Skies

Amazing track - amazing album, it slipped under the radar in The Uk , but we knew it was a ground breaking record , lets keep it secret to ourselves and not involve the plebs - they can listen to their 1975 ( who are sh*t by the way ) 

This song really shows how much of a leggiero tenor Jeff Buckley truly was.  At 4:23 he does a very light mixed voice D5 (which to most sounds like falsetto) which he eventually puts more and more chest in with brilliant vibrato and trills up to an E5.  Holy shit, it gets me every time.  Jeff Buckley will always be a legend and always my favorite singer.

gives me goosebumps everytime. I like him a TAD bit more than Freddie Mercury ( I know I know).

that vocal section is legendary imo

from another world

R.I.P. buddy

YES, YES, & YES!

@***** Nonsense. He didn't kill himself.

I love the guitar in this song. It makes me wanna headbang lol.

Buena rola  bendiciones para esta banda

Jeff Buckley murió en mayo del 97 y aún es considerado como uno de los más grandes de su generación por su voz y su estilo...

My favourite track from my favourite album. Love you, Jeff.

This song is surprisingly... Dare I say it?... Heavy!

I honestly wouldn't be surprised to hear that riff in a metal song. Haha

@Bobby Mopfeet I would have loved for Jeff to make more songs like this.

Gloriously heavy!

If you think this is heavy you should hear the 'Road Version' which makes this sound like a nursery rhyme :D

@John Arundell That and their version of Kick out the Jams.

@soundslave Once at a concert in Melbourne a lady who presumably wanted to hear sweet hummable songs like Last Goodbye all night asked Jeff why they played heavy stuff, to which he replied "Because we dig it."

"Tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said
Man, it sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
And i've get a message for you and your twisted hell
You better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal 
Angel" fucking amazing!

If you're referring to how the bass sounds, then RHCP were doing this long before Buckley. Just sayin'.

The more I listen, the more I like !
