@ROFLATME2 good for you child, now instead of patting your self on the back, unrightfully i might add, how about you introduce your dumb shit friends to willie and maybe, just maybe the music industry can be saved.
Not too bad at all (shame about the choice of pic though). And thank the Lord of Song he chose Leonard's original Hallelujah — i.e. from the 'Various Positions' album, 1985 ( instead of his inexplicably revised version as used in Shrek: same title, totally different lyric — a "cold & lonely" ghost of .this one).
Finally!! a cover that doesn't play this too damn fast!! Thank you Willie - you can take any song and make it your own - thank you for keeping Cohen's spirit in this song - thank you.
Why does the earth contain two idiots that don't like Willie Nelson, and yet click on a link that reads "Willie Nelson-Hallelujah"? Were they somehow secretly hoping to be Rick Rolled?
wow did not know willie did this song It's allright but I do like cohens version better you should all hear iann72 do this song now he is amazing .I like how micky plays the harmonica in this song It almost sounds haunting
was watching willie on tv at the glasto festival earlier, shame he never sang this one. some great personal touches on the lyrics there. awesome. love it
@Arkhei0s haha, actually i think it's perfect, esp. for the line "you say i took the name in vain, i don't even know the name, but if i did well really, what's it to ya?" :D
@equsnarnd ... all of them are indeed exquisite (mostly because - it is an exquisite composition). Leonard Cohen a master in his own right - no question!
great version, im sure this is the one i heard on the radio yesterday, could be wrong but either way, loved it. ive never known a song with more covers. what a great song.
Thank you for this. Willie is the greatest.
