This just popped up on twitter and I thought it was lush.

It's haunting, they said Hallelujah is one of the best ever written, they're correct, some covers are good, but Jeff Buckleys hallelujah is truly haunting.. it's a bit depressing, but incredible
 
Right, the mardarse curmudgeon has arrived.

That "Sound of Silence" version sounded far too close to the original. It begs the question "What's the point?". Either improve it or do summat original, you pair of gits.

"Hallelujah" boils my piss 'n'all. I can just about endure Cohen's version but the myriad sentimental reworkings I've been subjected to make me want to gag.
