      Absolutely, most underrated singer of all time. Should have won agt. Keep him in prayer, he is beyond deep and that's why the current world does not recognize him

    So many people have sung this song in their own way. It’s a song of deep heart. It’s a song from the soul. It can cut right through ya! But to hear this sacred song through the powerhouse voice of this amazing clown, who sings with such passion and soul, he temporarily transforms from Clown to Angel, as he touches the heart and soul of everyone who hears him sing this. He left me with tears in my eyes. He lifted me up with inspiration. Through his powerful and magnificent voice, he offers hope to all that is listening...

    If you had asked me a week ago to list some of the greatest covers I'd ever heard, I would not have thought an almost seven foot clown singing Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" would have been on there, but hey, it's a strange world.

    Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen would be proud

    • @jonesq63
      @jonesq63 Před 3 lety +1

      I saw Jeff Buckley do this. I was working in a bar, and he was about 15 feet from me. Probably less. Dark house, white spotlight, Jeff Buckley comes out with an electric guitar, and he sings his heart with this song. You could hear a pin drop. After he bought the house to tears, he bought them to their feet. Puddles just did the same thing. What a voice. Buckley & Cohen be proud.

    @FrewtFlover Před 9 lety +11

    There are very few singers that can perform this song and make it grab you. KD Lang is the best I think, but this man has a voice that does this song justice. Kudos my friend, and may your voice carry you where you wish to be.

    I know you did this video several years ago, but I think this performance is so damn good you can sing Hallelujah with a live small orchestra on America's Got Talent and definitely be in the running to win. This was one of the best renditions of the song I have heard, and I have heard many. Try not to be so sad, since listening to you and seeing your quirky videos makes me happy, as well as I am sure hundreds of others.
