Just tacking on to this post to tell you I've had Mojo Pin stuck in my head and have been singing it (enthusiastically but not terribly well unfortunately ๐Ÿ˜†) ever since you posted this. How did I forget about Jeff Buckley? His music was such a huge part of my life at one point, and his was one of those celebrity deaths that make you feel like the whole world stopped for a moment.

I forgot about him for a couple of years then he just popped into my head again one day.

Kinda takes you to another place.

I've been trying to sing a song of his (except hallelujah) for years and years.

Needs practice but I got most of it down.

His voice was really something else, how he effortlessly moved from his upper to lower voice. If you can even straight up just sing one of his songs you're doing well IMO.

There's a loooooot of really fast, really sharp breaths. That's the killer. If you miss one, the whole next line is out of key because of how high you have to reach.

And thank you :)
