Hallelujah为加拿大著名游吟诗人、民谣歌手LeonardCohen在1985年创作的歌曲。收录在其专辑"VariousPositions"中。其歌词充满诗意,内涵丰富,曲调缓慢忧伤,加上Leonard沧桑嗓音的低吟浅唱,演绎出了一种清淡而悠长的回味。
Hallelujah的版本很多,其中最有影响力的还是美国著名创作型歌手JeffBuckley的翻唱版本,被收录在其1994年的专辑"Grace"中。Jeff被U2的Bono形容为“噪海中的纯净一滴”,他的声音明丽甜蜜又性感飘渺,诠释起悲伤和记忆来却更令人印象深刻。
Now I've 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 qinyipu.com
The fourth the fifth
The minor fall the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did well really what's it to you
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
I did my best it wasn't much
I couldn't feel so I tried to touch
I've told the truth I didn't come to fool you
And even though
It all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah
