I didn't think it was high enough for Lee - Buckley had great vocal range 
but I thought his voice lacked that hint of gravel, too pure maybe.  If I 
could have perfected Buckley, he'd have sounded like MV.

There are a few tracks I can say I love despite the crap lyrics [S.Roses -
10 storey love song for one and I'm not even going to mention Ocean Colour
