The Jeff Buckley Hit That Almost Had a Different Name

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut 1 — opening guitar of Last Goodbye)

January 31, 1995.
Climbing the charts was
Jeff Buckley’s “Last Goodbye.”

(Music Cut 2 — verse settles in)

The original demo from 1990
was louder,
more aggressive,
and closer to straight rock.

Buckley pulled it back like he did with the title —
Which was initially called “Unforgiven.”

(Music Cut 3 — brief vocal lead-in)

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“You gave me more to live for,
more than you’ll ever know.”
— Jeff Buckley
