Hallelujah acoustic cover by Aleksandra & Marko

"Hallelujah" is a song written by Leonard Cohen in 1984. However, it was Jeff Buckley's beautiful, emotionally charged rendition that gave new life to the song. Jeff Buckley, an American singer-songwriter, recorded his version of "Hallelujah" for his 1994 album titled "Grace." Unfortunately, Jeff Buckley's life was tragically cut short when he drowned in 1997 at the age of 30. Our mutual admiration for Jeff Buckley and the sheer brilliance of "Hallelujah" inspired us to create this heartfelt acoustic cover and try to capture the essence of the song. Lyrics: I heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do you? Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to her kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips, she drew the Hallelujah Baby, I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor You know, I used to live alone before I knew you And I've seen your flag on the marble arch And Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Well, there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me, do you? But remember, when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath, we drew was Hallelujah Maybe there's a God above But, all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you? And it's not a cry, that you hear at night It's not somebody, who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
