[D1LUC]

[smirnoffb]

VERY TOUCHING!

[smirnoffb]

WHAT A BEAUTIFULL VOICE!!

[xXxTUNSTALLxXx]

Jeff Buckley version is better, (RIP) this one isn't too bad, but it just doesn't seem to fit right, (FOR ME).

Anyone can hear the lyrics to this song worldwide, by whoever sings it and feel amazing emotions.

I want it played at my funeral.

[VStarGotLined]

My opnion, Jeff's is better

She trys to hard. ¬_¬

Another Leona, 'fake star'

[barberboy3]

what a pile of crap hate her she is as false as stick on nails

[stefanmarel]

Best version EVER!

[stgron2rocks]

shit

[fruglescot]

The tune Hallalujah one of the most popular songs of all time has been covered by a record number of artists including Canuck, KD Lang(be sure to check out her version) Two versions were in the top ten hits at one time this song was written and performed rather than sung by it's creator Canadian icon Leonard Cohen. (check out his original version as well) Alexandra's version of Hallaluja is exceptional and now that I've heard it, one of my very favourites. BRAVO

[thecouragetosing]

Great singer,great song great person from the Director Founder of THE COURAGE TO SING

[Whoopwhoopss]

You would have got way more views if you had spelt her name correctly ALEXANDRA

[OograemeoO]

im not stupid i did do this and got about 100 a day.. changed back to der and i got 72 most watched in the uk... theres too many with the correct spelling with this is get all the mistaken ones :D

[jttrousersnake]

what about Leona shes now world wide lol, u no nothing so keep queit

[C0mmand02]

Why did this win? It's a cover of a cover for christ's sake. Then again whoever wins it'll still be the same old standard rubbish it is every year. Thanks to Simon Cowell for ruining the British music industry.

[8473leanne]

Luv the song would luv to hav heard eoghan singing it

[SkyyLyfe]

So..She Was Lip Singing?

[starlois]

ilike it but i wanted jls to win

[carism444]

i couldn't agree with u more

[specialbeamcannon1]

i love it xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxx

[LittleBigBabiiCactus]

ye sure I'M the creep

[OograemeoO]

why are your repeating what i said stupid ass, yes you are the creeep.

listen to a depressing man all you want.cus yur a creep as i origonaly said :S

[LittleBigBabiiCactus]

ciril should of won

[OograemeoO]

who?

[LittleBigBabiiCactus]

rubbish. i would rather listen to daniel

[OograemeoO]

cuys ur a dumb creep

[shinyshannon]

i am so glad she won! She just rox!

[bigbigscott]

whichever way you look at her she's fucking brilliant. its a really hard song to screw up if someone sings it well which she does. personally i wouldnt give it a go down the kareoke club but thats just me

[j7dela]

watch it from 2:51 - 2:54....her voice is still being heard clearly, but the mic is not at her mouth, and she is not moving her lips cos she is hugging 2 other ppl. lol.....its a beautiful version, but i prefer the Rufus Wainwright version.

[luke8655]

MAYBE CUZ THE VIDEO IS OUT OF SYNC?

[OograemeoO]

because the music video was not there, so i took the video and added the downloaded single to the video.... so its the video from final night with the single added as music it tells at the side of bar if you bothered reading it.

[j7dela]

don't get your knickers in a twist mate...no i didnt bother reading it....but now i did and now i know....that's it.....cheers for telling me...but there is no need to go all defensive. anyway....merry christmas.

[happytehemu]

its much better live anyway

[timmystix]

an awful lot of auto tune on her voice ain't there?

[pamelah10]

I have seen a lot of comments about Jeff Buckley. Both are beautiful versions. I feel that Alexandra has more passion in her voice as she sings.

[danmarbud]

there were some parts where she sounded like leona!!!!!!!

[luke8655]

WHEN SHES SHOUTING

[xshanescookiex]

Brilliant verson but dont think that jeff buckley gets enough credit

But well done alex :D

[olsenal]

this is the walt disney version of the tune.

jeff buckley does it for me.

[OograemeoO]

ok, explain this to me,.. if the jeff buckly is so good then why did NOONE listen to it when it got released over a year ago..

[olsenal]

because walt disney is very popular and im in a minority.

[olsenal]

p.s. and for me this version is like fox news and buckleys is like al jazeera.

[Emilie12xx]

i hate the x factor is such a fixed show but i watched it too watch alex i think shes sooo amazing lol. lol so glad she won tbf

[MrsOrlandoBloom123]

OMG calm down bout the name thing... people make mistakes! GOWD

[tom21beatboxa]

She has a great voice! :)

[billythomas18]

alex winning was a fix

[OograemeoO]

stfu how wos it you have no proof.. face it jsl are crap the reason for not winning and oyu cant take it... get a life

[I3Love3Horses3]

Omg I am not having a go at anyone but this is really anoying me. Her name is ALEXANDRA NOT ALEXANDER!!!! That is a boys name. It really bugs me because my name is ALEXANDRA and I am always getting called ALEXANDER! You dont understand how anoying it gets so please people stop doing it!!!

xxxx

[footballcraze1]

if you dont like x factor dont fucking watch you dick

whats the point you dont watch tv because you dont like whats on why rujin it for everybody else yh man

just leave her man

she done well jls did the same song they didnt get a symthy vote did the ?? err...NOO!!

leave man she like my fave persin i look up to her

[KickPilot]

I like this.

[monz94a]

lov her

[myself65]

ahh gunna have to say no here

i aint sayin shes crap

im sayin its what she did was crap

song shouldnt have been covered

and its generally this re-gurgated shit that im complaing about

xfactor just shoultn exist in my opinion, its on far too often, and is just a load of shit, get rid of the whole back story about the people aswell, no one really wants to know, and its like tryin to win sympathy votes

*end rant*

[NaiiznJessie]

SHUT UP! Fucking hell if you dont like X-Factor then dont fucking watch it and dont look at the bloody video's on Youtube. Why do you have to ruin it for everyone. No-one wants to know your stupid opinion! Who agrees with me here???

[cheerleadergirl08]

she is the best and jls were good but i think she was the best!!!

[OograemeoO]

agreed

[rockstarrrpenguin]

well, its a common misconception that people who win talent shows ARENT crap

im here to set all that straight :]

[OograemeoO]

if she was crap as most of you are saying then she wouldnt have one,fact is she won cause she was better,meaning jls where crap/.. just posers

[jonnykansas]

rufus wainwright?!

jeff buckley sings the best version by a country mile, leonard cohen must be loving the royalty though.

Still i think Alex has by far the best voice so good luck to her

[rockstarrrpenguin]

but can you transpose it up a 3rd, invert every other chord and sing it in a melisma style? ;) no ma- i mean, drummermatt08, you cant

original name by the way

[myself65]

yeah, i can spell the name of this i think you'll find!

and i think i can sing it aswell *smug face*

[rockstarrrpenguin]

dear drummermatt08 and myself65

you two need to get lives - its not like YOU guys can sing this song!

sod it, yous cant even spell the name of the song :D

[Shaznay00]

I love alexandra and this version of the song. jls put me to sleep, at least alex added some passion and emotion to the song. GO ALEX!!

[myself65]

fail

just fail

shouldnt have covered it

everyone should buy Jeff Buckleys one to make it number 1 insted

she sucks

[Cozzahh]

i think jls should have won.. a group never wins.. and shes just another leona lewis.. shes got a good voice tho

[gamos10]

i like her but shes like leona lewis but i still like her

[02Abubakr]

Alexander Burke is total shit, Leona all the way.

Better voice, look and everything, Alexander is sooo shit.

Repping Leona!!!!

[jonijohnson4]

i agre wi gav

[99griff99]

tbh fall out boy sing it better, and even then youre pushin it... the guy who lost his wife shouldve won he deserved it, or someone other than her... dont like her at all

bitch

MUhahaha

X

[OograemeoO]

for sympathy yeah, but not for singing he can sing at all :L you goty be jokin

[99griff99]

okay but id rather listen to him than her shes an emotional whore......personally

i dont really care i jusst thought i d say anyway i respect ur opinion

=]

takes herself a bit seriously as well...!!!

[gav161]

She does it good but I still think Rufas Wainwright sings it better

[xxtompreecexx]

i love her she's amazing

[xxtompreecexx]

i love her voice she's not going to be a one off lik most of the x factor winners she's going to hit the big time

[tammyz10]

oh wow...they've created a leona clone!

i actually think xfactor should be legally schedualled for a different time of year.

it's unfair that christmas no. 1s are forever fixed.

more to the point diana's version of this...would have been much more worthy of a number 1 spot.

not impressed...even JLS' version is better.

its an insult to jeff buckley.

[aminahislam95]

like her, but she's a bit 2 similar 2 leona lewis

[2oKeZo7]

Dont like this version tbh and I know its a modern version but Paramore's version of this is much much much better IMO.

and thats my opinion! no-one elses

[sitgesskin]

congratulations on your achievement, alex! didn't think anyone could ruin one of the greatest songs of the 20th century, but ms burke has gone and done just that. unbelievably shite!!!

[hubblethebubble]

Alex is amazing!

& I have a video on Diana & Eoghan making out!!

xx

[calahoon22]

i dont like this version of the song i hope it doesnt get number 1 for christmas its def not as good as jeff buckleys version

[OograemeoO]

its a modernised version :) i like it and so does thousands other which is why its broken reecords and is number 1 downlaoded atm

[calahoon22]

yeh its no1 now coz its just out and loads of ppl watch the x factor if she hadnt bin on the x factor and just released the song then it wudnt b no.1 downloaded song and what records has it broken?

[dazzerman4eva]

Fastest downloaded track ever

[gav161]

I agree, Id rather Rufas Wainwright version

I dont think Alex will be bigger than Leona Lewis tho

[lozzalew86]

i prefer the sound of alex's voice to leona's but think they r both great!!

[19richardbol74]

dont get this song!!! listen to jeff buckleys version and see how its suppose to be sung!!

[pixelrow]

... and Jeff Buckley got this song from Leanord Cohen - whose song it is. Cohen is the original. Buckley did an excellent version. ....

... You faggot it doesnt mean no one else cannot release another version and who the fuck made you in charge?

[19richardbol74]

big words for such a small person, i know len co did it origanaly, just advising people not to be a sheep and to hear the song how it was meant to be sung!! not ripped off by pop star wannabes. now excuse me and get a life pixelrow!!

[pixelrow]

... so what if pop star wannabees want to rip it of and ppl want ot listen? Whats your fucking problem. Jeez you might have grown tall but u still got horse-shit, where ur brain should have been.

Music industry is one heck of a cruel business... ppl will figure u out soon enough ... like Leon Jackson from last year and huge amount of other "winners" .. but once in a while you get a gem like Leona Lewis. Now its u who needs a life. Me I am CHILLING!

[lightingbolt123]

i think she is good and she is at leone lewis stage when leona started in 2 years 2 alexander will be better to all though i think theyre both different by far,

[JuliusAkaJewlz]

dont compare alexandra with leona she is no where near where leona is

[L3verpool]

she is sooo good and she is just as good as leona lewis actually.

i think she will have loads of hit songs. she is amazing.

[OograemeoO]

i dont thinks she is as good

but she is good.

just under leona, she could be her bitch :L

[jemmajjh1996]

I relli wanted JLS to win But now I think she Deserved it and im glad !!! :P

[wovtos]

she is gd bt nothing compared to leona lewis

[cocobandit]

As much as I like Peter Kay, I hope he doesn't prevent Alexander from gaining the Christmas No.1

She deserves to be at the top spot with this song. Brilliant singer!!

[OograemeoO]

I HATEEE!! peter kays songs, hes funy but his songs are crpa i dno how people liek emm

tho the bob the builder does make some co mp i think lolol

[hauxs001]

this performance was amazing, i cnt beleive she even managed to get out ne words with beyonce standing right nxt to her!.. .all the people saying that she was playing up to the cameras and being too emotional.... ummmm wouldnt you be, if u were that close then told u were the winner with a 1 million record deal!!!! WELL DONE GIRL U DESERVED IT!!!! TOTALLY AMAZING!!!!

[AvatarKyosho]

I hate the manufactured x factor songs but this is such a good song and i am torn between it and peter kay's christmas song. Theyre both so good

[ScottishAfroMan]

why does everyone like those peter kay sopng they sound cheep, just a easy way to make money>

its nomt even good nor funny

[aliwag33]
