    Jeff Buckely-Hallelujah

    Is it the best piece of music ever recorded? Or have I had one too many?

    It is very good. But is it as good as Jambalaya by the carpenters?

      Have you heard the other versions...

      For the actual (Shrek) movie soundtrack (the one heard while watching the movie), Hallelujah is performed by John Cale. When later released on CD, the soundtrack album includes a performance by Rufus Wainwright. It was a song originally written and sung by Leonard Cohen but it has been covered many many times by various other artists such as Allison Crowe and Jeff Buckley.
      Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

        Like saying The Godfather is very good. But is it as good as Battlefield Earth?

            The godfather is good. But is it as good as Ferris Bueller's day off?

                Contracting is good. But is it as good as working in PC World?
