The minor fall, the major lift

Wednesday, December 22, 2010
This song has been recorded by many artists from simple solo guitar composition to a grandeur orchestra, solo singer or choir. A singer-songwriter, musician, poet and novelist, one of the most celebrated artists of all time, Leonard Cohen was the one who composed this beautiful tune - there's a song-lyrics version of this.

I remember, me, walking across Purdue campus over a Christmas eve in effin cold Indiana winter tuning in to Chris Botti's Live in Boston playlist. It was the first time I heard Hallelujah. It is peaceful, mellow, simple, and very intimate for me, at least, personally.

Merry Christmas.
