kd lang's version of Hallelujah
Jeff Buckley's version
Leonard Cohen - the original Hallelujah
I can listen to this song all night long, over and over again. My mother thinks I'm hopelessly crazy. The neighbors think I've become a religious fanatic. Only my dog understands that I simply love Leonard Cohen. Hallelujah is a song originally written and composed by Leonard Cohen over the course of a year, and released in 1984. Over the years, Hallelujah has been performed by various artists and was included in TV and movie soundtracks, including Shrek, House, ER, Without a Trace, Cold Case, The West Wing among others. There are biblical references in the lyrics and the melody conjures up religious feelings, but Hallelujah is not a religious song. I find the lyrics a bit sexual and funny. Only Leonard Cohen could come up with something like this.
