Shrek Hallelujah,Rufus Wainwright (LYRICS)

[deathandveryalive]

and i have the best memorise with that song (:

[SixFlagsHero]

I want this song played at my funeral!

[anialatoszek25]

wspaniała piosenka słucham ja conajmniej 5 x dziennie!!!!!

[krazyaboutdogs]

Who sang the original of this?

[ovchugs]

really alhamdullillah - hallelujah!!!

[emmahungergms]

Gosh I love this!

[Miakia400]

this is one of the saddest songs i've ever heard

[paroutdiok]

@Miakia400 Even though it makes us feel sad, it still reminds to all of us our best and happiest memories we have been through. The tears it brings are tears of joy and happiness. :)

[bboo88]

@Miakia400 If you think this is sad, try really listening to "You Are My Sunshine." But then again, you're not on that video, so this post is probably irrelevant and pointless.

Beautiful cover to a beautiful song.

what baithing means? thanks

[148lama]

I really can't stop listening to this Song... Replay-replay-replay-replay. It's the Best Song Ever (:

[Lysernaii]

Hmm. While I love this song, I don't really like Rufus Wainwright's version. I prefer Jeff Buckley's version :) Though this one is nice in it's own way.

[RandomandBizarre]

Is this the one from Shrek??

[paroutdiok]

@RandomandBizarre The song in Shrek movie is sung by Rufus Wainwright. Although he made a different performance with tiny little changes for the movie. This is the original one.

[DRCelius]

@paroutdiok "Wainwright's version was featured on the album Shrek: Music from the Original Motion Picture, although it was John Cale's version that was used in the film itself" - Source is Wikipedia

[IL0vethatsOng]

@RandomandBizarre yees it is

[iloveuweezy]

how come everyone associates this song with shrek? -___-

[lukesgirl143]

@iloveuweezy because thats where most people heard this song from

[thunderbolt810]

i watched this 5 times!!!

[hugabiloo]

would it be innapproiate to say Amen to this..?

[gazthebomb]

@hugabiloo Nope

[kiarita19vip5]

I love this song, its just beautiful <3 That's why i made a video with the lyrics. Hope you guys watch it and like it :)

[musicandcandy100]

can somebody plz help me understand this song?

[RozsaKietse]

@musicandcandy100 The whole song is pretty much talking about religious stuff. I'm not really sure about all of it, but the David mentioned at the beginning is King David, the one who fought Goliath and I think the part where it says "She tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne, and she cut your hair" is talking about Samson. Sorry if I'm wrong XP

[musicandcandy100]

@RozsaKietse thanks, i dont really care if your wrong

[monkeylover10952]

sherk has the best version of this song :)

[IamToons]

10 words.god-forgives-if-you-make­-10-or-1000-crappy-decisions.

[GUMxHPxMCR940]

[LaurenLovezzYouu]

To those who don't like this song, You don't really care for music do you?

[mirahai]

[ismeniavazquez]

XD for you brilliant Paroutdiok. My beverage is mixing with my tears. Beautiful and moving sensation. Thanlk you so much my beloved!

[11animalplanet]

IamToons, I think itall depends on how you look at it. I believe there is still some hope, and I also believe this a sad and meaningful song, you might think different though. And I bet there are hundreds going through what you are going through, don't give up faith yet :)

[sixtyfour1doubletrey]

Part of it is about King David from the Bible. Another part is about Samson and Delihah. The rest is about the journey of faith. At least that's what it means to me.

[IamToons]

can somebody PLEASE just listen to me for once and comment back PLEASE comment back thats all i ask, 1 chunck of feedback. do you think there is faith left. my brain bugs me ALL the time it tells me things that arent true , at all and it shows me images i dont wanna see and it doesnt get that it effects me and i dont wanna see it i feel like no one understands wat i go throuhg, i need faith that im not alone and that this IS stopable bc i think rightnow it is unstoppable and never will stop

[LittleSwordsGirl]

its not about sex its about a man who gives up everything to be with the women he loves the most and realizes that money and power isnt everything that you need to be happy in this world.

[idontcareokpeople]

my boyfriend sang this song to me before we broke up :'(

[Georgia19991000]

this song means alot to my dad and it almost makes me cry when i hear it<3

[TheCARLzzz123]

i'm only 10 and i absolutly love this song. i bet like, 95% of the views are from me only.

[KG113028]

To me this song is about a man who lusted and tryed to impress the girl wit words that's impressed the king

[KG113028]

Luv this song....im only 16

[XxLolaaxX100]

This song is so beautiful that it can not be described in words...

[reaperxxx500]

it says you saw her bathing on the roof

[gubbyspictures]

Good song

[miTsUmi101]

Best song to play during a corpse pose (yoga)

[TheElLaChEn]

great song but not the best quality :(



[paroutdiok]

@TheElLaChEn Yeah, if you check the date the video was made 2 years ago, and the quality at that time was not good at all. :D

[Bandgeek174]

Love love love this song!!!!! So beautiful

[i0WnUrMoM]

240p we meet again...

[Gemmmae]

stop bein rude to the 11 year old, im sure you've all made spelling mistakes in your lives, jesis. maybe one part is about sex but who gives a shit? it's a beautiful song and that's what most of us are here for.

[Teeheegetalife]

It's 2011 and still loving it :)

[nisseost1]

omg this song making me cry holy ... its a sad song :') its do me glad and sad :')

[pescky12345]

as modern and dramatic it sounds

very beautifully

this song is dedicated to king David (in Christ era) about how he saw a naked lady bathing on the roof and how uncontrollable his lust

his lust was so powerful that he even asked someone to murder the ladys husband just so he can marry her

anyhow this song is sooooo amazing

[drowofshadows123]

Music is art. Art is meant to be interpreted byt he individual who sees, hears, and feels it. Each person may see something different in the lyrics of this song, whether you think dirty (like me) or whether you think pure like those of your who say it's from the bible. All that matters is that fact that each one of us can sway to this melody equally.

[Crazyjrocksteehee]

its sad to think that people only know this as "the song from shrek"

</3

[loveygirl2345]

It's better than the first one in the sidebar.

[pallylauj]

BEST VERSION EVER!!!! Because it was on Shrek. Lol. =D -3

[JamtheMann]

This song is about sexual things but it is related to the bible. It's not inappropriate, as this is a part of life. It's a song that tells a story about life, love, and defeat all in one. Great song

[Libberts96]

I remember hearing this from Shrek. Ad I still love this song so much.

[RadioactiveNinjaTaco]

I don't give two shits what this song's about. I'm not even Christian. But I still love it.

[littleaustin12345]

Twenty-two people must always have their ears stopped up with cotton. No one in their right mind that hears this song would ever dislike it.

[noproblem5544]

Shrek brought me here.. I'm glad it did. <3

[ditrasa654]

De volta a musiquinha triste do Shrek...

[datFinfox]

and @ SaintJohnVII  i see what u mean about it being about Samson but David also had sex with a woman, whom was not his wife and the cut hair part could be a metaphor for him starting the war than the rest of the lyrics make since afterwards

[datFinfox]

the song is about the lifes story of King David in the bible

[SaintJohnVII]

This song is a Christian song. The beginning talks about King David, and the 'bathing on the roof' part is Samson and Delilah. Delilah cut Samson's hair off which is what made him weak.

[Raks225]

@SaintJohnVII If I read it right The "cut your hair" part symbolizes the separation David had from God when he committed adultery with Bathsheba

[monkeybannaboy1234]

@SaintJohnVII David saw Bathsehba on the roof while he troops were away fighting. Deliliah cut Samsons hair while he was sleeping in a Philistine village

[C4kids441]

@starshine11 umm..

[starsshine11]

@paroutdiok thanks alot. and ur right it os a beautiful song marissa:)

[Masckerade]

Perfect song for the Da Vinci Code

[MyAnimation0]

I think its about love, sex, religion, it's a part of love in some cases, right?

Ehh idk xD greaat song tho

[ashes3261994123]

yall are stupid this is a christian song ya know its not suppose to be about sex y dont yall just grow up and keep ur comments pg

[ashes3261994123]

@starshine and @paroutdiox this is actually a suppose to be a christian song

[starsshine11]

how is this about sex???? and if it is grow up so what no one cares im 11 and im miture enough not to care if its a bout sex if u do and ur older than me wooow thats just saddd

[paroutdiok]

@starsshine11 I was thinking about the same thing, even if it is speaking about sex, who cares? This song is beautiful, and by the way, congratulations for having such great taste in music, in such young age.

-paroutdiok

[ILikeBoysLikeGirls15]

@paroutdiok its about a story from the bible- David committing adultery

[Joene34]

@paroutdiok How can this song be about it? It is such a beautiful song that tells us about the different ways we praise our Lord. Hallelujah means "Praise God" in Hebrew.

[XXLightwindXX]

@starsshine11 ... I kind of wish you were mature enough to spell the word 'mature' correctly, though. Hahaha.

[guineapig710]

@starsshine11 your mature and you can't spell mature

[6teenNikkiandJonesy]

@guineapig710 *you're

[toastify79]

@guineapig710 oh shut the fuk up, not everybody can spell perfect yu fukin kunt

[rhinoman85]

@starsshine11 just stop. im glad you have good taste but we're simply implying that what this song it about no one is making jokes about it. its kind of a higher apreciation than you know quite yet.

[2122100]

@starsshine11 WHAT!? You're 11, you don't know the feeling of sex...Get at us...and get some...and you can't even spell for starters...

[EzioAuditoreDaFir100]

@2122100 dude its his buisiness so get off the fucking dope and get a life

[TheIguanaClan]

@starsshine11 ok im with you but just saying, your not that mature if u spell mature like this "miture".... also i THINK i spelt that right, i hope i did or i seem like a real dumb kid

[marioezee]

@starsshine11 if you were mature, you will know that the sex is not inmature, its actually the next step in a relationship in which the couple no matter the sex gives to his/her love a piece of him, his/her intimity he/she gives itself. The song is beautyfull one way or the other, but there is nothing wrong with it if talks about sex

[hawkfrost223]

@starsshine11 Its about a part of the bible that did involve sex but not alot for people to get worked up over.... plus good point :)

[IwillHoldYouUp]

Personally, I just like the song...

you guys are over-reacting with the whole sexual thing

if it's sexual, who really gives a fuck?

It's a nice song, if it's about sex idc.

[stokkie88]

Great song to have sex on

[alma3331]

I can't believe people are take "remember when I moved in you" to extreme levels it's a beautiful song and all can think about is sex really? This song is beautiful please don't ruin it with your stupidity

[accordingtoyourmumzy]

the song is beatiful :')

[fantasyfuture1]

When he sang 'remember when I moved in you' the meaning is in the eye of the beholder, I take it has 'remember when what you saw me as changed' or 'remember when you feelings for me changed.

[alwayshavefaith143]

this song is so pretty but I have no idea what it means

[witertiter]

Hallelujah

[ByHappyForever]

Adoro essa musica...!!

:D



[xxBeckyThatcher]

So pretty.

[beetos34]

Good job on the video

[114rainbow]

we sang this at school in chorus

[NATengland1999]

Love this song

[Picouhoorei]

Ist is very good, xD

Oh my God!!!

xD

[Picouhoorei]

Esta musica é expetacular, nenhuma tem uma letra melhor

[11MrBurn]

What does he mean from her lips she drew the hallejah

[juliabenfica13]

this music is perfect!

[Browneyedgirl332]

i LOVE this

[RhianonLee23]

His voice is so beautiful!

[bri780]

Im gonna sing this song for the talent show next year :) Im a girl and my voice can get lower than his haha :)

[eley200]

@bri780 Ditto. It freaks my chorus teacher out!

[MusicChick198]

@bri780 Whoaa I cant even sing CLOSE 2 this low!! But I guess being a Soprano has it disadvantages..LoL

[bri780]

@MusicChick198 Ha im a first soprano but i can sing down into a bass range hahaa its just more comfy for me down lower

[MusicChick198]

@bri780 lol Im a first soprano too! But i project better higher, and I can barely sing lower than low ti..lol

[xxkeyskeysxx]

@MusicChick198 I was a first soprano my freshmen year, and a second soprano my sophomore year, but I got to be a tenor for one song because my choir director didn't think the tenors were loud enough and I was one of two or three girls who could actually sing the part.

[MusicChick198]

@xxkeyskeysxx OmG in high school we were sucha unbalanced choir coz even though we had like 75% altos and tenors and bass, the sopranos were so much louder, coz i think the lower you get, the harder it is 2 project, specially 4 me! Ya a looot of girls ik can sing tenor and alto, and they think its hilarious wen I crack wen I try 2 sing low so or something.

[TheRWOCompany]

i was all like "man, what a beautiful song!" then 2:29-2:42 changed all that.

please listen carefully, then you'll know what i mean :)

[Roseanna200]

@TheRWOCompany Lol wow

[DATazzSHEgot]

@TheRWOCompany OMG!!!!!!! XD at least you know

it was good, i guess.

[RaeRaeLovesSlassh21]

@TheRWOCompany

oh my god lol way to ruin it

[MeNiA0408]

@TheRWOCompany that part should not have changed your mind about the song....it's not about explicit rough sex or anything like that...it's about love...so it's different. :)

[TheRWOCompany]

@MeNiA0408 oh, it didn't actually! i just thought it sounded funny and i only realized after i had chosen this song for my class' music project where we have to talk about what the song means. so really, when i said "changed all that" i meant more like it changed whether this was a good choice XD

[hypermaXx13]

@TheRWOCompany

See, that's just your speculation. It's music, it can mean whatever you want it to mean. That's why music is so great.

[hypermaXx13]

@hypermaXx13

Of course, that being said, I agree that that's what it means too.

[GanNing000]

the funny thing is, this IS the one that played in shrek. seriously

[GanNing000]

beautiful just beautiful. a tear just came down from my eye. he has a good voice

[lumcoke]

His voice was really attractive!!

[calievilleneuve]

j'adore cette chanson sérieusement !! :)

[nobodysgirl234]
