Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "I am your failed husband contender..."

Answer: Vancouver

The song, "Vancouver" started out as an instrumental song, played during Jeff's "Mystery White Boy" tour. It was included (with lyric) on "Skecthes: For My Sweetheart, The Drunk".
2. "________ beauty I love you so..."

Answer: Black

3. "And the rain is falling, and I believe my time has come...It reminds me of the pain I might leave behind."

Answer: Grace

4. "...like I waited for mine, and nobody ever came."

Answer: Dream Brother

Some say the lyrics contained in the song "Dream Brother" are a reference to Jeff's estranged and late father, troubadour Tim Buckley. (Ex: the lyric in the question). However, Jeff claimed the song was about his friend.
5. "Stay with me under these waves tonight."

Answer: Nightmares by the Sea

Ironically, Jeff died in a drowning accident. The above lyric is only one of many ironic phrases sang by Jeff that could have possibly been a subconscious reference to his unfortunate death. (Ex: "...sucked me in and pulled me under" - "So Real")

Answer: Morning Theft

"Morning Theft" is another song included on the "Sketches" CD.
