YouTube - Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

 

[vegster]

That song is bollocks whoever is singing it.

The voice of reason !.. I prefer the Masters version myself, considerably more uplifting too !

YouTube - Hallelujah, by Händel.

Guess it depends where you sit in relation to the mixing desk. The O2 sound was crystal clear at the back, but with echoes at the side. We were front-row centre seats at the Brighton Centre, but the sound was very soft.

<Shameless boast alert> Went back to the "green room" afterwards and met most of the band, who were extremely normal and pleasant. Sharon was raving about a "soul food" restaurant in Brighton, but I can't remember the name. LC was probably in bed by then. </Shameless boast alert>

BTW, the singalong at the end started because in Belgium "performers" get taxed less than the road crew, so they all joined LC on stage, and he kept it in.

I was at the O2 gig - brilliant evening. Two hot, blonde backing singers, too

Cowell: You don't really care for music, do you?

 

[desprateseagull]

i heard a very good version on tv recently - either on CSI, or Numbers.. that version sung by K D Lang?

sent shivers down yer spine.

 

[NMH]

I never heard Hallelujah before so I thought I would have a listen and see/hear for myself on youtube.....well, what a load of bollocks, talk about The Emporer's New Clothes.... if thats a classic song I'd rather have Cool For Cats by Squeeze or The State I'm In by Belle and Sebastian.. sorry Leonard, get yer coat.... you are the weakest link !

Wait, before you scoop the pot...... Lenny will see your Cool For Cats and State I'm in, and raise you;

I struggle to see what people find amusing about Chris Moyles. Shouting borish comments does make borish comments funny.

 

[desprateseagull]

the whole team is needed- moyles on his own would be boring.

 

[Janbha]

Nick Cave is the best version!!!

I couldn't agree more, honestly.

But Comedy Dave's "Lamb Bhuna" is hilarious. FACT.
