I think I must be the only person on the internet who doesn't prefer the Rufus Wainwright version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. That's the one I always see being used on vids, and personal CD mixes. And that's a shame.

It's an ok one, but honestly, there are better versions. Cohen's original is of course good, but Jeff Buckley's is the best of all the 5 or so versions I've heard to date. Much better than Wainwright's cover.

i love the buckley too. cohen is good, but buckley's falsetto lends it this loveliness that cohen just doesn't have.
