Yup,a Leonard Cohen song that originally had 80 verses,which Cohen sent to John Cale when he heard that the guy was going to do a version.Cale had to pick thru all of the verses to make his own version.He said he only picked out the cheekiest ones.Lol
This is shocking I'm amazed people think this is good, Stan Walker from Australian idol does an amazing version of Hullelujah, also he is very good looking unlike this guy.

@SpartanKC17 But Cohen's actual version is kinda blah. I know the words and emotions come from a very bad place in his life, but Jeff Buckley brought it to popularity and Rufus Wainwright made it new again.,,,just sayin'......
I've always thought Kurt Nilson sounded like Eddie Vedder mixed with Dwight Yoakam. Not dissin him either cuz to me his voice sounds amazing and he deserved to win World Idol!
being a skater/surfer chick im gonna say he sounds nothing like anyone i hang around with. if anything he sounds like he was born and raised in texas or tennessee with a voice like that
as someone from Texas and has been living in Alabama for 6 years he in no way sounds anything like the typical Alabamian. Alabamians are twangy and much higher pitched that his typical conversation voice. I can see how you say Texas but only if you're talking about the cowboy type.
yeah thats exactly wat i was thinking of. idk his voice reminds me of those "Home On The Range" types of songs. idk if thats a Texas song but defiantly cowboy-ish. its nice to listen to tho.
i like alejandro,s voice bether.great that they is coming together like a band again.first consert 9 mai,2009.i,m verry happy for that.new album,halelujah live vol 2.
they have write it on theyre myspace too.halelujah.
The song was written and first performed by Leonard Cohen. Jeff Buckley really made it popular and performed an amazing version, too. I h ave saved 3 or 4 different performances of this song, so go ahead and hit my profile and take what you like. Let me know, if you would, which you love most. Perhaps listen to more Leonard Cohen. Remember, Cohen was a composer more than a performer. He has written some songs that...well, see what you think.
seek for Hallujah shrek song. all three words, that is still a short version buthave three verses with four great singers singing it, including this guy, Kurt Nilsen. If you like him, search for kurt nilsen I , thats name of a song, and search world Idol where he won the hole thing. Really worth searching for!
