Jeff Buckley died quite an untimely death. His first studio album, Grace received critical acclaim, and he toured on the material for two years. While working on his second studio album, he drowned in the Wolf River in Tennessee.
One of Buckley’s most popular songs is a cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” (largely based on John Cale’s version of the song recorded for a Cohen tribute album). The song has been covered by quite a few folks, including Rufus Wainwright for the Shrek soundtrack [though, as noted in the comments, the movie itself features Cale’s verion], but Jeff Buckley’s version is among the best.
Here is the second verse:
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
