what the hell is wrong with you people? how can you possibly think that leonard cohen's original version of hallelujah is "hilariously shitty" :o . this is fucking leonard cohen we're talking about here! it may not be as good as jeff buckley or even rufus wainright's version of the song, but it is still VERY GOOD

It's horrible. Just absolutely horrible. I wouldn't even agree that "it may not be as good as Buckley, but it's still very good", because it really isn't. I really did laugh out loud when I first heard it.

 

But then, that's just my opinion.

It seriously is. I swear, Leonard Cohen isn't even singing. It sounds like he's talking. And not only that, the song is just very corny sounding.

 

Jeff then Rufus then Cohen.

 

Actually, I'd even rate KD Lang's version before Leonard Cohen. It's pretty sad when another artist can do your own song better.

I don't know... I couldn't really choose. I went for Everybody Here Wants You, as I just love it.

Also my very favourite live recording is the cover of The Way YOung Lovers Do of Live at Sine. THat is such an awesome song, and such an awesome recording!
