The cover of "Hallelujah" isn't as good as others I've heard.
See, I heard her "Hallelujah" and declared it a possibility for my One True Version.
SA put a version of "Hallelujah" on a mix CD that I'm absolutely in love with. I think the singer is Ari Hest (?)

Really? He's coming to Borders this Sunday.
I *just* looked on his website and saw that he's coming to Cincy on Monday! Free concert, right around the corner from me!
Hey Angus, you still waiting for the first CD mixes to arrive?
Aha, Angus! You are here today!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Angus Day!

I really like Rufus Wainwright's version, except for one thing he does that bugs me. The first verse, for example, goes: "I heard there was a secret chord that David played, and it pleased the Lord/ But you don't really care for music, do you?/ It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift/ The baffled king composing Hallelujah." Now in order for "do you" to rhyme with "Hallelujah", it has to be pronounced "do ya". But Wainwright insists on the proper enunciation, "do you", which ruins the rhyme. And he does this in every verse! Hmph.
