Hallelujah comeback
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturecritics/neilmccormick/3814916/Hallelujah--the-perfect-Christmas-song.html
I had always liked Leonard Cohen's haunting song Hallelujah. But now in UK, there are 3 competing versions of this same song on the UK charts. thanks to Alexandra Burke singing this song at and winning X Factor (the Brit American Idol)
but I think Jeff Buckley's version is the best, especially in the West Wing episode. brings tears to your eyes...
