Jeff Buckley covers The Smiths' 'I Know It's Over'.
Jeff Buckley’s cover of The Smiths’ “I Know It’s Over” is a rare and moving tribute to a legendary band. The music video beautifully captures an intimate moment between a boy and his mother in a quiet room, adding a poignant visual layer to Buckley’s haunting voice. I’ve always admired Buckley’s incredible vocal talent, and while I’m usually skeptical of covers of The Smiths—given the uniqueness of Johnny Marr’s guitar work and Morrissey’s unmistakable voice—this one truly stands out. Buckley brings a deep respect and emotion that honors the original while making it his own.
