A video of sad moments from the TV show The West Wing. Set to the song Hallelujah but a very different version from what was on the show. The Leonard Cohen Version. This is my first vid so... Vid really ends around 4 minutes, so my appologies. I couldn't figure out how to get my program to listen!!!!

Cohen OWNS this song...
-
I like Jeff Buckley`s rendition, his voice makes me think of an angel singing it.
I like K.D. Lang`s version, her voice puts passion in the song
I like Rufus Wainwright`s version he has heart
Leonard`s version is smooth and it has soul.
-
Jeff Buckley's is the best version, I love this one, though... The shrek one is crap
-
don't miss John Cale's version, he was the first to cover this.
-
Seen/heard the k.d.lang version? LC is the greatest, but k.d. sure does him full justice.

Wow, this is a great song but I had no idea the original was so terrible! The version used in the episode is a vast improvement. The one in "Shrek" is the best, though.

we're all entitled to our opinion. I had specific reasons for using this version.
1) the buckley version had been used on the show itself
2) I like Leonard Cohen
3) The Shrek one is too..shreky...but i love that version.
If I make another I shall use that as a guide.

Cool video! Not the best version of the song no offense, the better version is by rufus wainwright :) Cool video non the less!

there's a RW version! He's amazing. Did not know that...I may be using that soon! thanks. no offense taken. the only version besides the buckley that was used on the show that i didn't want to reuse it, and the shrek one.
