Not only the words of Hallelujah, it's the melody that is outstanding.

There’s a story about Lenny and Bob Dylan talking about the difficulty they had writing songs. Lenny asked Bob “how long did it take you to write Masters Of War? Bob said it took him about two weeks. Bob asked him how ling it took him to write Hallelujah, a song he loved. Miserably, Lenny admitted it took him two YEARS. Later, Lenny admitted, while telling this story that it actually took him THREE years.

Dominique Issermann, one of Leonard's loves was a French photographer. She shot the video for the song, 'Dance Me To The End Of Love.' Simply exquisite.

Give me Leonard Cohen every night, that tranquil beauty of delight.... that profound feeling, I require for survival. His luminous words that burn within, his sexy voice capturing every sin...his love that complicated new arrivals. There are no words to fill his void, there are no symptoms left to cure, because when Leonard Cohen died, so did...a legendary idol. <br> <br>- P

It was SUCH a RELIEF to hear you talk about the most important, profound, holy, wrenching, and triumphant verses Cohen brought forth and how most pop singers instead of comprehending those verses trim them off and reduce this song into a mere romantic complaint.

As the music manager for my local church I was tasked with arranging the music for my best friend's funeral. His family asked me to include Hallelujah for Mass. I'd know the tune but never paid much attention to the lyrics and was kind of appalled that they'd be sung during a Catholic Mass. His daughter told me that every time my friend heard it on the radio he'd say that he wanted it for his memorial service. I got together with the singer and family and we decided on which verses would be most appropriate for this event; When I heard my organist sing and play it on the church piano I was amazed and appreciated its power and effect on everyone. I now look for all the other verses in search of what can tell a concise yet complete, spiritual story. The ones you read I believe are its key elements.
