His cover of Hallelujah is awesome. Jeff Buckley was also amazing.

I was just listening to that...

woah woah, codfather.
Granted, this is a Wainwright thread, but, Jeff Buckley definitely sang the definitive version of Cohen’s Hallelujah.
just to settle that

Jeff Buckley is by far one of the top singer/songwriters in the last 20 years.

one of the best concerts I've been last year.
Buckley/Cohen will not regret this cover:

I used to have the DVD of Jeff Buckley live here in Chicago. He performed his cover of Hallelujah last. It was so unbelievably gorgeous.

(Jul 6 05, 07:30)totally agree Jeff is the man, its just i love that song so much, was nice to hear a happier version.
by the way anyone know how he really dies, heard some say it was accidental drowning and others it was car crash?
- brooke0
He drowned. Mal on here knew him in person. He said he was a beautiful friend.

i saw him in LA a couple of years ago at a tori amos concert, actually i think their music is similar in a way... ?
well sort of...

i think he is a twat.
used to like him and went to see him play at the islington academy.
but he's put me right off with some stupid coments, ie like the moment germans would get his music he would stop being a musician.
i'm german, and as far as i'm concerned, i can stick his recordings back up his ...
i've put david hasselhoff back on my ipod and happy singing along to 'looking for freedom'.
goodbye mr wingewright.

I usually refer to him as Poofus. It's a chep joke on his gayness, I know – but I don't really like his music and everybody keeps going on about him which to me is HYPE and I hate it
