Hallelujah

For this week's "YouTube clip for a peaceful weekend," I've picked Leonard Cohen's 1984 song "Hallelujah." It's been covered by several vocalists and heard in a few movies and TV shows (usually during a sad moment that achieves resolution of some sort).

"Hallelujah" picked up new steam after being heard this season on American Idol.

I think my favorite vocal on the song is done by Rufus Wainwright.

I also like the the Allison Crowe version:
