Hallelujah Lyrics
Artist(Band):Jeff Buckley
Review The Song (190)Print the Lyrics
Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and 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

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you?
And remember when I moved in you?
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen in the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah <<(held for a long time)
Hallelujah

Review about Hallelujah

Listen folks | Reviewer: madrason | 5/13/09

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!



ugh | Reviewer: Me | 5/6/09

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.



Amazing | Reviewer: David | 5/6/09

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.



Is this the original? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/2/09

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.



Hallelujah | Reviewer: Chris Bradley | 3/23/09

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



Hallelujah | Reviewer: Adam | 1/23/09

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 :'(

Hallelujah---truly Amazing | Reviewer: dee | 1/14/09

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.




uch well | Reviewer: anominous | 1/13/09

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).



Powerful | Reviewer: Julzi | 1/13/09

This is what the meaning of the phrases 'powerful singer' and 'powerful song' is. Not the horrendously loud and projecting voice of Alex (even though she's not too bad), but Jeff's (RIP) version is definitely the best, because he sings this song with feeling. It evokes heartbreaking emotions... I love this song... *sniffs*



Charlotte | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/10/09

This song is absoulutly amazing. I mean im only 11 and i think its the best ever. I was gutted to hear that alexandra was going to sing it because i think Jeff bukleys version is wonderful! All my love to lyrane lawrence. This song is my all time favourite and now i know how much it means to some ppl it always will be!
