3 are covers, 3 are songs he wrote by himself (though if you include Forget Her that's 4), and the rest are co-written with other band members.

Skethces for My Sweetheart features mostly songs written entirely by Buckley, which were recorded for what was gonna be his next studio album.

There's a reason I said promising, in that he died before he could show people what he was really capable of, but I feel he had a lot of talent that he'd still be putting out great music if he were alive today.

I'd just keep bringing up Nick Drake until I get banned.

If you're implying that a kitten can play guitar better than Nick Drake then I can't say I disagree with you.
