Theme Time- Love

I've decided to steal a page from Bob Dylan's book, and do a Theme Time Radio Hour type post. I'll pick a theme, and create a mix tape to correspond with the theme. I will probably not be doing them much, but it will be good posting material for those days when there just isn't much to post about otherwise. I'm starting today with one of the most obvious and simple ones, "Love".

1. Lover, You Should Have Come Over- Jeff Buckley
2. Are You Still In Love With Me- Tift Merritt
3. The One Who Loves You The Most- Brett Dennen
4. Love At The Five And Dime- Nanci Griffith & Darius Rucker
5. Dance Me To The End Of Love- Leonard Cohen
6. Real Love (Acoustic)- John Lennon
7. Can't Get Enough Of Your Love- Barry White
8. What Would Love Do Now?- Matthew Jay
9. Make You Feel My Love- Bob Dylan
10. I Love You- The Zombies
11. How Do You Keep Love Alive?- Ryan Adams
12. Can't Help Falling In Love- Elvis Presley
13. I Will Always Love You- Dolly Parton
14. True Love Ways- Buddy Holly
15. I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You- Aretha Franklin

Jeff Buckley- Garbage Can Tape

Sometime during fall of 1996, East Village resident Barry Paddock was walking down 2nd Ave. At 12th Street he spotted a pile of cassette tapes left on top of a garbage dumpster. Curious, he decided to sift through he tapes to see if there was anything worthwhile. Most of the tapes were pre-recorded stuff like the Beastie Boys, which he didn't particularly care for, but one tape he found was a blank tape with a hand written label that read "J. Buckley Stuff". Barry saved that tape from the trash and took it home. The tape is approx. 35 minutes long and consists of Jeff doing 7 solo acoustic covers. The best guess is that the tape was made circa 1992 or 1993.


1. Parchman Farm
2. If you see her, say hello
3. I know it's over
4. Hallelujah
5. Let time stand still
6. Madame George
7. Killing time

Hallelujah

Arguably, Leonard Cohen's most well known song is "Hallelujah". It is one of the most covered songs, as well as one of the most used songs in television and movies. Although Cohen's version may be the original, for my money the most powerful version is Jeff Buckley's. Rufus Wainwright also does a very good rendition of it, and his version was slated to be used in the movie Shrek, but ultimately John Cale's version was used in the film, although Wainwright's was used on the official soundtrack.
