Does anyone know of someone who has sung and recorded the whole song Hallelujah? I have his Lyrics and most people I have heard have left off at least 2 or 3 verses. even the song sung by Leonard himself leaves off some verses he wrote. The copy I have has 7 verses and K D Lang leaves off 3 Cohen leaves off 2 and I looked at Jeff Buckleys and he leaves off several verses to0. I would just like to get the whole song sung from somebody!!! Hello, Just have one question? Does anyone know of someone who has sung and recorded the whole song Hallelujah?

Terrific article about the importance and interplay of lyrics and melody. Hallelujah is just a brilliant song. Leonard Cohen's "Live in London" CD contains, imo, his best released recording of the song. My favorite interpretation is the Allison Crowe version on her "Tidings" CD. Really, though, with such a great piece of songwriting, it's no wonder there are so many well-loved covers. Thanks you. Terrific article about the importance and interplay of lyrics and melody.

His version is the one in my head. I know this is a Leonard Cohen song, but it will always be a Jeff Buckley song to me. His version is the one in my head.
