Reviews for Hallelujah Lyrics

this truly is one of the most utterly beautiful songs. Jeff Buckley was a musical genious. My dad used to play his music all the time when I was younger, back then I found it annoying but now I really appreciate and love his music.

i just love this version of music, jeff buckley was a really good singer, but the emotion of Loko was very pure, when i listen this, i forget all the same who is in my head...I really LOVE! ( sorry for the english i'm french ;) )

You must be crazy to preffer another version or the original to this.This is the most amazing fuckin'song i have ever heard in my life.And believe me, i'm addicted to music.My skin shivers everytime it starts..it has so much emotion that i think i could die in every second but in the same time it makes me feel so alive ..Its amazing! The word 'crap' does not exist anywhere behind this song.Is one of the most beautiful songs ever!!!

i listened to leonard cohens version and it was ok but this was amazing!!! some music give you joy momentarilly but this truly touches you!
i listned to it for a few days(replaying it after it was finished), and i went today to read more about jeff buckley in wikipedia but when i found out he died 11 years ago it really pissed me of, god bless his soul

i love this song its amazing i cant wait just some more singing lessons and vocal training by next year i will be ready to try out on the x-factor. i hope u can send me the lyrics in email. this song is so romantic and u sing it amazingly :) alexandra did ruin the song he is much much better at the song he owns it not her .!xO

i ve been into this song for years now..i felt for it z sec i heard it, couldn t be more romantic beautiful then this...back in london, 2weeks ago, that was almost the only song ide ever listen to..
reminds me of this someone..

How is it even possible to down-play this version of the song? I'd easily venture my opinion that this is 10 times more powerful than the original. This is in my top 5 favourite songs of all time and i'd recommend it to anyone I know or don't know. Fantastically powerful and beautiful.

MUsic can be beauty and defining beauty is a hazardous thing to do. So just enjoy the different versions. If so many people covered the song there must be some universal beaty in it aint it so?

And if you've touched an angel's hair
then you can tell us you were there;

Now we touched it all so do something good with it and enjoy!

When I first heard this song as preformed by Jeff Buckley I thought it was alright and nothing all that spectacular. But my fuck... once I heard the original version by Leonard Cohen it's just crazy in comparison. I don't know when this Jeff Buckley guy sings it in comparison to Leonard Cohen there just isn't the same emotion behind it... it just doesn't seem as real. Which I know is a terrible way of articulating my thoughts. But I don't know... this version just feels like some cheap bastardization of a truly beautiful song. I don't know maybe I'm just delusional... but it just doesn't have the same feel behind it. Fuck... I'm terrible at describing this.

This version of the song is amazing. It's so powerful.

Jeff Buckley, however did not write this, it was Leonard Cohen. Leonard wrote 80 odd differet verses vefore he was happy with the song that we all know. Anyone who wants to dispute that it was Leonard Cohen that wrote it, go ahead, but I know as i'm doing music at college haha!

But seriously, Jeff Buckley's is the most powerful and emotional version that's been done. I love it.

While I love this song by Jeff and the Rufus version is also good, wasn't this song originally created by Leonard Cohen? I am not completely sure on this but we should give credit to the creater of this song and not only the people who have redone it.

This is by far the best version of this song I like Rufus Wainright's version of the song too but this is my fave :)
Alexandra should have never sang it to be quite honest.
Did you know there are over 700 verses to this song, so that Jeff could sing a different verse depending on his mood and it took him over 3 years to write :O

i agree to the person who said about chavs playing the c**p version of this song i mean ( i know this may seem sad) but this song does bring tears to the eye and having chavs play it loudly just makes it c**p i love the original much MUCH more ! lmaosm.
if only he didnt drown :'(

I just heard this song yesterday--I am 50 so I needed to be introduced to it. Absolutely beautiful. What a God given voice he had.

So sorry the future of music has lost (in 1997) one of it's most beautiful voices.

i love this song because the lyrics are beautuful. SAlexandra actually murdered it i dont see why everyone loves, his is much better.
i think alexandra should have at keast sung all the lyrics... i love this song (L).
