I'm actually partial to the John Cale version. I do love the song, but every show and their dog has used it in the last 5 years.
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

I can't handle medical dramas. They upset me far beyond any enjoyment I might get out of snarky Hugh Laurie. So, while I understand it's v. v. good, I can't watch House.
Tep is me.

Sue, now that you mention it, maybe I'm confusing the versions. Which one is the one that gets used the most? Cale or Buckley? I've heard them both, but now I can't call either one to mind. I'm a freak, b/c my favorite version is by Ari Hest.

But that's pretty much [spoiler removed]

Although I'm fond of the Cale, COHEN, PEOPLE. Sheesh.

Steph, I think most used is either Buckley or Wainwright.

Plei, I'm well aware of the Cohen -- and I like it -- but I thought the Buckley version (or Cale?) was the one that gets used the most.
t edit Agh! I don't like the Wainright. Or the Dylan. And definitely not the Bono.
Man, I just don't like ANYTHING.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
So many Hallelujahizing Canadians !

Plei, you are right about the Cohen.
