Jeff Buckley was born in California's Orange County in 1966. On May 29, 1997 during an evening swim in the Wolf River near Memphis, he died in a tragic drowning accident. In the 90's He had emerged in New York City's avant-garde club scene as one of the most remarkable musical artists of his generation, acclaimed by audiences, critics, and fellow musicians alike. The following lyrics are Buckley’s version of the Leonard Cohen song, Hallelujah:

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the lord
But you don't really care for music, do you
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Baby I’ve been here before
I've seen this room and I’ve walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
But love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
Well, maybe there's a god above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah -

You are totally out of line making that comment about Spades art, I just bought a painting from Spade and now own the beautiful painting Spade did of the Dove and Peace Lilies with the blue back ground (he used it as his avatar January of this year) and it is an "ORIGINAL" piece of art work, very well done and BEAUTIFUL. Making comments like that one about some ones art not being original is a case for "Slander" against YOU which Spade could charge you with since you were so nice in putting it in writing.
Also, from past experiences, when people make such a vulgar hateful comment like that it is because they are jealous of the fact that they have nothing beautiful or artful to contribute to the world, just negativity and hate.....idiotic troll luv
Spade, don't let the little troll get to you, they aren't worth it and are just jealous that you can create beautiful paintings of art of your own and also beautiful videos highlighting other artists and music artists , something Woolfie knows nothing about but we are lucky enough to know -

Wolfie, you're dumber than a box of rocks. There's many people who have purchased paintings of Spades, and when i can afford to, i intend to buy one myself. You need to think before you type, because you have no idea how ignorant you sound!

Why do any of us bother to answer this piece of human debris - Wolfie? He is a waste of good air. A contaminant of the intellect. Maybe this is what gives his miserable life a corrupt satisfaction -- Damn I wasted my tome answering him too.

Wolfie: If you are interested in viewing videos that only represent my artwork and paintings and are not mixed with other artist's work, let me know. I'm sure you will enjoy them too.
