Don't you see, don't you see?
You're just the torch to put the flame to all our guilt and shame
And I'll rise like an ember in your name

I know I, I know I
I know everybody here wants you
I know everybody here thinks he needs you
I'll be waiting right here just to show you
Oh let me show you
That love can rise, rise just like embers

Love can taste like the wine of the ages, oh babe,
And I know they all looks so good from a distance
But I tell you I'm the one

I know everybody here, well, thinks he needs you
Think he needs you
And I'll be waiting right here just to show you.

That is one of the most romantic songs ever written. I won't upload it to my site because you all need to go and buy your own copy. I know everyone says "Lover, You Should Have Come Over" is it but they're wrong. It's good, but it's a downer. It's a breakup song, people.

Today the Trib has a great article on the annual Jeff Buckley tribute at Uncommon Ground here in Chicago. I like to consider myself knowledgable of most notable musical happenings here in Chicago but I never knew about the two-day concert Buckley put on at Uncommon Ground back in 1994. Had no clue it ever happened until I read that article today.

God. I was still in high school. I wouldn't hear about Jeff Buckley until months later when I was in college and fully entrenched myself into the campus radio station.

I always know whether I'll like someone or not if Jeff Buckley makes his way into our conversation.
