songs written about jeff buckley's death

i know there were a bunch of songs written by notable artists after this great singer-songwriter's tragic death.  

i've heard pj harvey's "memphis" which is probably the saddest song I've ever listened to.  

and i know chris cornell recorded one.  what were some of the others?

thanks.  i know this topic is esoteric as i'm sure not many of you know who buckley is period.  but if anyone could help a cat out, that'd be sweet.

thanks,
pookie

There's a portion of a lyric from Badly Drawn Boy - You Were Right that mentions his death...if I remember correctly....

memphis is such a good song!


Well I wish I had given you more time
To say thank you
My beautiful friend

But sometimes you gotta send it away
To bring it
To bring it back again

But oh what a way to go
So peaceful
He's smiling

thanks for the list, macguffin.  

isn't memphis just a wonderfully powerful song?  
i find it interesting that she uses the words "my beautiful friend" as that was a vital lyric in buckley's "morning theft" from his posthumous release sketches from my sweetheart the drunk.  had she heard the song or was it a strange coincidence?  there's so much intrigue to buckley and his death. someday i need to really immerse myself in it.
