Il Divo - Hallelujah

If you check the Adagio of Albinoni in the same channel, you will see that they are better there. (Not perfect, but not as bad as here)

What I tried to say is only this. They are great singers. If they want to sing a Hymn for Christmas paying a tribute for the Lord, they should stay with Holy Night or something similar. Not a song so sad, where the important part is that now the only sound that we hear is a cold and a broken Hallelujah. Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah needs sould and not great voices or singig as iif it was Opera.

to dippadedudah: I agree. This is definitely the most beautiful version of this song I've ever heard. For the life of me, I can't understand not liking it.

I guess some people have to gripe no matter what. I have listened to others sing this song and in "MY OPINION" This is the best version!!!!

I don't understand why you think Il Divo murdered "Hallelujah." (I'm a really huge Leonard Cohen fan and agree with you about Rufus Wainwright's version.) But even though Il Divo's version sounds nothing like Cohen's, I just cut them some slack and see it as an Italian, operatic interpretation, beautiful in its own very different way.

i'm getting a little misty eyed. This is so beautiful.

One of my personal favourites!! honestly i find this really good.

beautiful song! you guys have amazing voices!

As artists, this is their interpretation of the song. It's great to hear different singers singing this beautiful song. . This is a song that has no boundries. And what a GREAT looking group of guys! Molto Bene!

Me encanta que un grupo secular com el divo cante esta alabanza a Dios me impresiona, que Dios les bendiga. Amen
