  • Great voice- but not impressed

  • Pieknie!

    Look:

    Milena Walosik Hallelujah

  • Genial!!!!!!!

  • Genuial

  • hey, wieso machst du bei den credits nicht ne anmerkung das du dich vertan hast, dann sind vielleicht alle zufrieden :P

  • The original is definitely NOT by Jeff Buckley. It's actually really funny that the cover is so faithful to Leonard Cohen's way of performing, but that they didn't know he originated it. Of all the covers I've seen, this is probably the one that most resembles the original, and yet it doesn't credit Leonard.

  • Love this video!

  • Why have Lucky Jim's (sheebhar's) comments been removed??

  • So sorry to have to refute the end credits of the video, but Jeff Buckley is not the originator of this song - he did a great cover of it, no doubt, but he is not the writer nor is the first one to record it. It was written and recorded by Leonard Cohen in 1984. See Hallelujah on Wikipedia for the Cohen album cover and details.

  • @janisgraham i know. thank you.

  • @InnocentFoolx3 If you know, then...why do you cite Jeff Buckley as the originator? Just curious.

  • @mfgodwin i didn't know that leonard cohen was the originator when i uploaded this video. but now i do know, thanks.

  • @mfgodwin i didn't know leonard cohen was the originator when i uploaded this video. but now i do know, thanks.

  • @janisgraham not in 1984 ... but very early, back when tv was still in black and white (60's something)

  • Ganz klar, ein herausragendes Lied, allerdings ist mir diese Art der Interpretation dieses unumwunden sehr häufig kopierten Stücks etwas zu emotionslos, auch wenn sie dem Original von Mr, Cohen am ähnlichsten ist.  Dennoch ohne Zweifel, ..... Chapeau !

  • This is very captivating. An exceptional version sung in the poetic style of the author Leonard Cohen who came out of the beat era. But delivered with a more musical voice. Very good to listen again.

  • wenn er aber richtig sing könnte wär besser ...

  • very special... please check out my piano cover, and rate and comment, thx! would appreciate it!

  • ich hab es schon in allen erdenklichen varianten gehört und schon von allen möglichen Interpreten und irgendwie hat es bisher noch jeder geschafft diesen wunderschönen Song zu versauen! Tolle Stimme, Miese Interpretation

  • ich weiss nicht...kenn die version von rufus wainwright,von leonard cohen,john cale usw.usw.........die von lucky jim ist irgendwie die beste....find ich

  • Ehrlich..... es gibt bessere versionen..!! Das ist ein liebeslied, diese stimme sagt keine gefühle aus!

  • :D where are the emotions in your voice?! that´s a lovesong! it sounds like a sailorsong ... what shall we do with the drunken sailor hallelujah....hallelujah! :-) but your voice sounds good.. just try it with more emotions ;-)

  • Kann ich mir ganzen Tag anhören mir wird NIE langweilig.

  • great voice

  • recht hat er, daumen wieder hoch^^

  • haha geil =D

  • great work something about the voice

  • der film ist so cool und die version auch!!!

  • Comment removed

  • The Piano ?????? No comments must be new beginner

  • I think its a well done own version of hallalujah.

  • Bulls***

  • (Y)

  • Not nice. Sometimes he sounds like a goat.

    Sry nice try but thats all. A try.

    To little emotions.

    Its like... hell yeah I miss something.

    I dont even know exactly what, but I cant find IT.

  • This is my favourite version of the song too.

    Just 'cause he sings it with energy and emphasis unlike everyone else who covered it doesn't mean it sucks. So yeah...say what you want, this is great.

  • @affenonkel I agree. Finally a real man!

  • OMG wtf is this?! this is the worst cover EVER!

  • He sings with so little feelings that he gives me the idea that he hasn't got feelings at all

  • Comment removed

  • It's my opinion... it's not because he gives ME the idea that it's true... I just don't like his version of this song... is it a crime?

  • Comment removed

  • Terrible. In my opinion, of course.

  • lisa - halleluja

  • Wunderschöön..<3

  • he looks like bauer heinrich^^

  • Hahaha, fuck man! - Jeg fik skinke her til aften.

  • thats right

  • To kevinjahrstorfer and those of you putting down this artist.. Have you EVER heard Leonard Cohen sing it? This artist has a done an excellent job, building up from the quiet lyrics to the strong Hallelujahs.

  • RITMUS BAZMEG???!??!?!?!

  • Love this version. his voice is absolutely great!

    well done.

  • Beautiful version by the one time lost soul band singer who reformed for a few gigs at the end of last year.Keep up the good work gordon/lucky jim.

  • Ist für mich nur unter "ferner liefen". Vorher kommen noch die Versionen von Rufus Wainwright, Jeff Buckley, Damien Rice und die Live Version der Norweger Kurt Nielsen, Espen Lind, Askil Holm und Alejandro Fuentes. Allesamt für mich emotionaler.

  • Good and powerfull- like it

  • sorry but this version is very aweful.

    he has´nt got the voice for such a sad song!

    and he isn´t in the right rhythm!

  • that version sucks! buckley is much better!

  • Best Cover of Newage I hear

  • Piękne...

  • To really appreciate this version you need to see it in context with the movie.

  • voll schlecht!!!

    ich hör nur das von shrek^^ das viel schöner!

  • Aber ER hat den Song wenigstens verstanden!

  • Ich weiß, die Version von Jeff Buckley ist vor allem durch OC California total ausgelutscht, aber es gibt keine schönere...

    bei allem Respekt für Leonard Cohen, und jegweden anderen Künstler!

    Aber Jeff Buckley ist und bleibt der Meister dieses Liedes!

  • Da muss ich Dir Recht geben. Bin großer Cohen-Verehrer. Aber Buckley kann das in diesem Fall einfach besser und schöner.

  • bad

  • no i think its a great version

  • the one from john cale is much better

  • baaad, i dont like it...

  • His rushing D:

    Sorry to say, I don't like it!

  • I know he's trying to sound like LC, but this is just bad! Cohen's original version had a bit of spiff and cheesiness to make it good, this is just really plain and dull, no emotion

  • fur mich John Cale hat das besser gemacht :) sollen sie ihn noch horen :)

  • Die Interpretation ist sehr schön geworden.

  • ich finde, das ist die beste Version von dem Lied!

  • Ich auch!

  • Does this even count as music?

  • Bravo! a very very good cover.

  • This version, along with K.D. Lang's version, are my absolute favourite covers of this song, it's so beautiful!

  • tolle stimmt tolles lied!!!

  • Lucky Jim hat zwar eine tolle Stimme, allerdings kann er den Geist in diesem Lied nicht wieder geben! Das Orginal ist besser!!

  • des andre is vieeeeeeeeeeel bessa des originale!!!!das is ja im gegensatz zum orginalen voll die verarsche...

    echt schadee!!

  • a very good version.

  • stop saying it's bad, he's singing it in the style of leonard cohen (THE ORIGINAL WRITER), all you people probably have only heard jeff buckleys anyway

  • its not bad, but the style of the singer doesnt fit to the charakter of that song! think its the wrong voice for this song...so it sounds  ...bad

  • sry but thats really bad :S

  • scheiße :(

  • O.o wtf

    its too baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

    wäääääääh

    noz good

  • sweet

  • SOOOO bad! worst cover ever!!!! >:(

  • Imho the best version of the song. Cant get enough of it !

  • For my taste a little bit too fast, but his voice is great. All in all lovely version of this song.

    P.S.: "Die Fetten Jahre sind vorbei" ist 'n toller Film und ich finde schön, dass dieser Song drin vorkommt. =)

  • Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Great version!!!

    Halleluja

  • Not bad Jimbo.....Not bad at all...Jimi...

  • Gordon ROCKS. Spiritual cowboy music!. Listen to Lost Soul Band from Edinburgh. Concert on 28th was amazin' . better not be their last.

  • i love this song

  • nice (:

  • I like it, good version

  • Harps back quick true to Cohen's version. Pretty good- I like it.

  • The way he sing talks reminds me of Bob Dylan

  • yea, hes trying to do that.

  • D: this guy doesnt have such a good singing voice for this song. jeff buckley's version is much lovlier <3

    i do like the piano, though ^^

  • tickets announced!

    Lost soul band - liquid rooms, 28th December 2008. this is a one off gig I am told.

    can be bought from ripping records

    I've waited YEARS for this!!

  • Rea Garvey singin it much better :/

  • I thought he had a very low voice, but he has quite a reange on those higher bits.

    I love this song, and this was a great way of doing it.

    In an original way.

  • New version of Lady Midnight sung by Lucky Jim on youtube now

    Check it out

  • lol, i noticed that too... he doesnt like long notes or something...

  • I ♥ this song its so good and i think its the best version of it

  • this song was writen by cohen not buckley .. listen to the original ..this is how it was meant to be sung ..! great work fella

  • jeff buckley is the supreme of this song...so much heart

  • Rufus Wainwright's version is my favourite, but this is interestingly different :)

  • for me this is the very best version of this beautiful song. every time i hear it i cry...

  • very leonard cohen xxxx

  • Good singer. I don't like the way he sings it though.

  • Jeff Buckley's version will always be the definitive version to me, even though it wasn't the original.

  • Same here. Such many Versions of this, but Jeff Buckley sung that with love i can feel it by him.

  • I love buckley's version, it's got the passion that leonard's lyrics deserve, such a beautiful song. I found something terrifingly comforting about the way it made me feel like hanging myself on a rope made of tears.

    lol

    I am so jolly...

  • actually i really like this song it rules.ish. xxx

  • U SUCK....

  • SHREK!!!!

  • DONT CALL ME THAT DAMN IT!!!!

  • All doubters should check out Let It Come Down by Lucky Jim

  • I heard this version on "the Edukators" and was blown away. I have always loved the song, but never thought about it as a song about betrayal until the movie. Great version!

  • his not sinnging the song.! He is spitting the words out of his mouth.. Where is the feeling, where is the love and greef?

  • I love this version....very haunting....I heard it from the movie "the Edukators" and was blown away....it's funny, because I have always loved this song but never really thought about it as a song about betrayal and redemption....now i do.

  • im song songt singt er das nicht irgendwie höher, sondern im film ist die version von jeff buckley zu hören, du genie..

  • sorry, NOT that crazy about this version.

  • hm, i'm really that crazy about this version.

  • Don´t like that version

  • ne moment mal. des is ned die version von die fetten jahre sind vorbei. des hat ganz anders getönt. das hallelujia war viel längergezogen...

  • ich mag dieses Lied nicht.
