Buckley's best version and it perhaps surpasses the original.

Jeff has that incredible haunted vibe in this. I don't think it's right to compare two versions of the same song by two different artists. Both carry different intentions and history, they both felt the need to record this song, they both made incredible music. Jeff's version sounds much more bluesy. Billie's that incredible jazz. I appreciate both.

@akshara nair ummmmm....The song is actually bout Black men being lynched by white ppl in America and the history of white supremacy in that country. As such it's a hugely culturally significant song that captures a fraction of the horrors and terrors visited on Black bodies, minds and spirits for 200+ years. So yes, the song is about Black pain, Black history and Black experiences. To try and somehow just 'universalize' this song and not "make it about Black and white" is nothing short of whitewashing, is low and an insult to all Black ppls who had a whole country and economy built on their slave labour.

I really dont know why many people made this about being 'black' or 'white'..i believe music has no caste or race and that it should be appreciated for its remarkable efforts and ofcourse, jeff buckley's incredible yet intriguing talent

the song is simply sad. Everyone who listen to it has the right to sng its sadness. Espacially when the one who sing is colorblind...There are black, there are withe, there are songs that make us singers.

For me the strange fruit contains the hollowing and cringing effect of shear horror and disgust. The way Bilie Holiday sang it was I think the best with the intention of giving us that feeling. I love Jeff Buckley and I love his version of Hallelujah, but for this song, not so much.

I think its kind of inappropriate - Strange Fruit is a song that holds very deep morbid and painful memories of the past for blacks,if you have no cultural or personal connection to such a powerful song,why sing it in public?just thinking.

Esta es otra versión de "Stange Fruits" esta vez del malogrado Jeff Buckley, un cantante con una voz capaz de recorrer 4 octavas y media en un interminable lamento sureño. Relajaros, cerrar los ojos y prestar atención. Merece la pena.

Doesn't capture the songs harrowing renascence at all. A complete fail.

I like Buckley but this certainly does not surpass the original.

"The southern trees bear a strange fruitBlood on the leaves and blood at the rootsBlack bodies swinging in the southern breezeStrange fruit hanging from the poplar treesPastoral scene of the 'Gallant South'The bulging eyes and the twisted mouthScent of magnolia, sweet and freshThen the sudden smell of burning fleshHere is a fruit for the crows to pluckFor the rain to gather for the wind to suckFor the sun to rot for the tree to dropHere is a strange and bitter crop"
