The most gorgeous song ever written; this is one for the ages.,
By
This review is from: Hallelujah (MP3 Download)
This is the most evocative, lovely and spiritual song ever written. I've listened to it so many times I hear it in my sleep. Reportedly, Mr. Cohen wrote 80 verses to this, but only a dozen or so are ever performed. I wish the others were available for study; he combines biblical allusions with modern sensibility better than any poet that I know of.
As he himself once said in an interview, it's about saying hallelujah to life, even when everything is going wrong. His deep velvet and whiskey voice is the only one that does it justice (although I'll agree there has been some marvelous covers, especially K.D. Laing's version).

or if you think "Hallelujah" is a song you usually hear at Christmas, sung by the local high school choir, give this one a try. Cohen will make you smile and break your heart at the same time. Beautiful, soaring, gravelly, and lovely.

It is all in the voice,

This review is from: Hallelujah (MP3 Download)
Although I believe I might prefer the Jeff Buckley version of this song for melody and tenor who can fault the rich vibrancy of Leonard Cohen. The sound of his voice echoing through the speakers is ethereal. The better the sound system the more this song version turns into a classic.
