  • You're a singer? Well so am I, and here's my opinion : He's fucking brilliant, he wouldn't be a singer if he didn't have some form of an audience, I don't look at videos of fucking Tokio Hotel and explain why I dislike them, the reason I don't do that is because I'm not going to purposely look at their fucking videos. Are you literally just calling him shit because you dislike him? That's just stupid, I dislike rap, but i don't look at Jay Z videos just so I can pour my heart out to YouTube...

  • Maybe there's a God above

    And all I ever learned from love

    Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

    It's not a cry you can hear at night

    It's not somebody who's seen the light

    It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

    Amen Leonard Amen (This is not a religious song - well not one the Christians want to acknowledge)

  • ...wish they'd have played this in my church...I'm just sayin'

  • @drummerboy5142 it may  not be a religious song...but it has many many religious themes to it

  • @ecstasiaburdened Thank you for explaining ^^

  • @LoveSoraPlush Because the poster was informing someone of the backstory of the elements in the song. Hallelujah mentions the stories of David/Bathsheba and Samson/Delilah and it seems the poster ILGWAMH11 was telling someone the story of that... So, yeah!=)

  • @KALEIDOSCOPEN What the fark does that mean ????? < mocking your use of 5 question marks after a statement) ;)

  • @TheTwilighter91 How could anyone take that 'personal', except Rufus?

  • Why is the Bible being read out in these comments?

    I <3 Rufus Wainwright.

    Incredible voice, and beautiful playing the piano. 

  • David's greatness shines in both his ability to take responsibility for his actions and the humility of his admission and the repentance that follows.

    David realizes that the death of the baby and later the revolt of his beloved son, were divine punishment and also served as atonement for his actions. David "pays his dues," repents for many years and is ultimately forgiven by God.
