Hallelujah how many covers

I say all the perfect and broken hallelujahs have an equal value. Case in point: this dreary, countrified cover, which strains mightily for greatness but never gets even halfway there. The use of Auto-Tune here is both completely unnecessary and massively distracting. I would pay cash money to hear the whole song sung in his Kermit the Frog voice, though. If Spinal Tap had tried covering the song, it might have sounded something like this.

These Canadian hard rockers dialed back their amps for an acoustic-based version that — while possibly being a tad overlong — feels surprisingly heartfelt.

Personally, I find the laid-back groove he lays down here oddly appealing, especially in comparison to the rigid approaches usually favored by performers of this song.

And as always with McDonald, you can really hear the beard! It was Cale's version that made it into Shrek in , one of the first big pop culture inclusions. Wainwright's version, a riff off of Cale's, was the version chosen for the Shrek soundtrack. A contemporary of Buckley's, Wainwright told writer Alan Light, who traced the history of the song in his book The Holy or the Broken: Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley, and the Unlikely Ascent of "Hallelujah," that his jealously kept him from realizing Buckley's talents until after his death.

I put his version of the song on, and it was this kind of cosmic communion. It kind of hit me how great he was, and how fabulous the song is, and how foolish I had been for being so petty. Dylan began performing the song on tour in As one tale goes, he asked Cohen how long it took to write, to which Cohen said a couple of years. Cohen then asked Dylan how long it took to write I and I , and Dylan replied 15 minutes. The Stereotypes. Asher Quinn. Michael McDonald. The Malchicks. Katherine Jenkins.
