![]() ![]() The version below sounds very much like the original but is accompanied by a slideshow instead of the original video. That version has been taken down by YouTube. It was the first public performance of the song and included a youth choir. My personal favorite was the original one. There are several versions of Kelley Mooney singing the Easter Version of Hallelujah on YouTube. ![]() She has recorded a CD entitled Tomorrow with this song prominently featured. Kelley wrote new lyrics (with permission) and they are keyed to Easter. One is a Christmas adaptation which I intend to share next Christmas season. More recently, I learned that there are two “legal” modified sets of lyrics set to the same haunting melody. I had never even heard of the song or of K D Lang but I was mesmerized, especially by the haunting melody! So was the Olympic audience and, probably, the worldwide audience.īut as I learned the lyrics I was very disappointed at the incomplete and distorted view it gave of Jesus Christ and the title of the song which means “Praise the Lord” to Christians. ![]() The first time I heard the song Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen was when K D Lang sang it at the 2010 Winter Olympics. ![]()
