http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U68vS9Xl14M This is Rufus Wainwright singing. It's closer to the abc and Cohens. |

I have a feeling this will go on our Favorites list, just based on how the player translates it! For versions--man. I like both Jeff Buckley's version, and the kd lang version as well. So many interpretations! |

Yeah, there are a lot to choose from and they are all good. Tribute to the quality of the song itself. |

I read an interesting article about the song, which suggested a few reasons why it might be so popular these days. 'Hallelujah' The beautiful, broken song of Leonard Cohen Thomas G. Casey |

I took the liberty of putting together lyrics for this. I took Randolfr's idea of replacing the name "David" with "Daeron" in the first verse, and re-wrote the second verse to be the story of his lust for Luthien, rather than the odd combination of David & Bathsheba/Samson & Delilah in the original. Lyrics: [intro] I've heard there was a secret chord That Daeron played, and it pleased his lord But you don't really care for music, do ya? Well, it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, The baffled bard composing Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Your gift was strong, your goals were good You saw her dancing in the wood Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya She gave her love to one mortal born You betrayed her trust, your heart was torn And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Well baby, I've been here before. I know this room, I've walked this floor. I used to live alone before I knew ya. I've seen your flag on the marble arch, Love is not a victory march. It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah There was a time you let me know What's really goin' on below, But now, you never show it to me, do ya? And remember when I moved in you, And Arda itself was moving too, And every single breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Maybe Eru really is above, But all I've ever learned from love Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew ya. And it's not a cry that you hear at night, it's not somebody who's seen the light No, it's a cold and it's lonely Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Edited by Falibrand, Nov 15 2011, 11:55 AM.
