I absolutely adore Leonard Cohen's music.

My favourite version of the song (other than Cohen) is Jeff Buckley!

Reading the comments in the YouTube video I think this one got it right:

Quote:
I would just like to say that this is an abomination. It makes me despair over the general music-listening population of this country. There is nothing original or exciting about this at all.


About an hour after that was posted, there is this:

Sony BMG will give a contract to the winner of the Xfactor...

And guess who happens to own the rights to Hallelujah?

I'll weigh in with my favorite cover of the song, but I am secretly in love with Brandi, so I am biased. Wink

This is my favourite version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2NEU6Xf7lM&feature=related

The first version I heard was John Cale's. I like his. When I heard the original, I thought it was some sort of bad joke. It sounds like scary lounge music to me.

Damien Rice also does a brilliant cover, which was done at Cohen's R&R Hall of Fame induction.

My favorite cover would have to be David Bazan's version. He's one of my favorite artists.

I wish i could find a link to the prog I heard on the world service , it was an interview with Leonard Cohen, amongst other things he discussed Hallelujah
including how long it had taken to write it!
As usual there is a lot of subtext to the song, most of Leonard Cohen is buried under the lyrics






saw him perform live waaaaay back

there was a time I thought him as depressing as Morrisey and as cheery as emo
