Hallelujah John Cale

[media=https://youtu.be/-gi3J8nPKPE]

Rufus Wainright did my favorite version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah.

But then I read a newspaper article praising John Cale's version.

It is good. Though the video is--odd. I still prefer Wainright, but I'm going to have to watch this again and think about the worms or caterpillars.

As the song says, he is not here for the music!

The worms go in, the worms go out, ....

@Ontheroad I've seen/heard this before! It is very beautiful. But it does not seem as passionate, as expressive as Wainwright's version. Wainwright 's version seems to be a fairly straightforward narrative in my head.

@Poppies I can see that, very straightforward but for me, not the passion i get from this group. That's the thing about music, different tunes and singers hit us differently.
