The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. A song without words, sung by a group without instruments. A well-deserved Grammy
12 Days of Christmas. They're just flexing in this song.
Definitely flexing. 😉
Yes!!!!! This!!
The Pentatonix "wall of sound" never fails to cause goosebumps.
Imagine and Sound of Silence requires warm jumpers.
ABSOLUTE CHILLS EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!! Never gets old :)
Oh man, the “imagine” wall of sound is one of the best
Bohemian Rhapsody requires a heavy fur coat as well.
Most pentaholics will tell you that their favorite song is the one they are listening to at the time. I think a fun, bouncey older original song like "Sing" would be a good follow-up to a weightier piece like Hallelujah.
Sing is a good song it shaped my childhood but hallelujah also shaped my childhood
The first Mitch slap is always the sweetest.
Mitch can slap me anytime 😂
Absofreakinlutely! Love it!
Just to be clear, this is definitely not a "churchy" song. Listen to the lyrics. It's about a toxic sexual relationship, the struggle between human emotions using biblical analogies. Cohen originally wrote numerous versus, reportedly 150, and spent five years writing it, sometimes banging his head on the floor while wearing only his underpants. Definitely not "church" worthy, but nonetheless a masterpiece. PTX's version is nothing short of stunning.
Thanks for this. It drives me kinda nuts how many people think this is a religious song. Some of Cohen’s other verses are quite graphic.
Before Leonard Cohen passed away he had listened to PTX's version and he said it was his absolute favorite cover of his song!!!
@@taligeoghan8361 I see this claim posted often but I can't find a single article or interview where Cohen says this. The only reference to Cohen's opinion I've ever found was an interview with Scott regarding their original plan for the song as a Christmas song and Cohen did not approve of their proposed changes to the lyrics so they scrapped that version. I'm sure he heard it before he passed and I have no doubt he liked it but I don't see anyone anywhere actually quoting him saying it other than people in social media comments.
I'd love to see such an article or interview if you can point me to one.
@@judithL3100 Even what's here can be construed as somewhat graphic. You have a verse about a shootout. You have a verse, for pity's sake, about a guy watching a woman take a shower. Granted, some of the others are far more graphic, even to the point of being pornographic, but it is not a religious song by any stretch. That doesn't mean it has not got the ability to drive a quasi-religious fervor.
@@heinleinreader , "woman taking a shower" refers also to the story about Susannah and the elders in the book of Daniel (considered part of the Apocrypha). But yes, that's a story about lust.
FYI, the "baritone guy" is Scott, tall and blond. He has a phenomenal range, and will fill in bass line for the bass singer if he is doing a solo. The bass singer in the group is Avi, and he's the one with the long hair and beard. Avi is actually a basso profundo, which is the lowest range of bass singers. Avi also has a tremendous range, and can sing overtones, which is singing two notes at once. Avi left Pentatonix amicably for family and personal reasons at the end of their 2017 tour, and was replaced by Matt. Since then Avi has built a phenomenal solo career, capitalizing on his exceptional voice and songwriting abilities. Bass singers tend to ballads, so his new style may not be your thing, but the 7Layers recording of "All is Well" (not the duet with Joy Williams) is breathtaking.
Hallelujah is such a good example of how PTX does 'upgrades' not covers! This is often the first 'mitch slap' for people too - when Mitch (in the hat) does his incredible counter tenor range. Avi (long-haired Jesus-type!) was the bass of the group but when he sang his solo (in the higher baritone range) Scott (tall, blonde) takes over his low bass line. Scott has unbelievable range and can hit high, falsetto tenor notes too. Avi was replaced by Matt as the bass singer in 2017. Matt is great too, in a different way. He doesn't go as low as Avi perhaps but he can go incredibly high too (listen to the last notes of Joyful Joyful from their live Evergreen Christmas tour last year).
There's a live version from their TV Christmas special. If you listen closely, Scott makes a few subtle changes to his riffs and runs to prove they are not lip syncing. And the live version is just as good if not better than the official video!! And please start a Pentatonix Playlist... The Pentaholics will love you for it!!
I completely agree. I really want a Pentatonix Playlist. I like reactors who Go the extreme step to create Playlist So there channel is more accessible.
The live version is SO good
I'd also check out Kevin Olusola (beatboxer) "KOver" of 'Down'. You get to see a bit more of his talent showcased.
Yes - I think he would like Kevin cover of Down, too!
I'mma Third on this one! Also Kevin Olusola's Renegade is amazing to react to as well.
They took time choosing Matt to fill the bass when Avi left. I love what he brought to the group. Different sound, a just right sound.
Just an FYI; This is not a hymn. It was written by Leonard Cohen in 1984. Handel's Hallelujah Chorus is a hymn that was written in 1741.
“How good can they really make these songs?” Oh, Sean. Bless your heart. Try, Little Drummer Boy and Oh Come All Ye Faithful. You’ll never listen to Christmas music the same again. Their arrangements are so creative and inventive and they never fail to surprise us which is one of many reasons why we love them so.
I'm a baritone, and I've performed in everything from choirs to musicals to Irish Folk. Those bass notes are a thing of my dreams. The bearded singer (Avi) covers them for everything but his solo, when the blonde baritone (Scott) takes them up virtually without flaw. This song gives me chills at several points, but none more so than that final B1b that Avi is sending out like an earthquake.
The singer that replaced Avi (Matt) doesn't quite have that low note as consistently, but he has a little stronger upper range, as heard in "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)"
For a "typical" Christmas upgrade by Pentatonix, try God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. They do the first verse as if they're out caroling on the street, very traditional. Then they put their PTX spin on it, redoing the whole song with beatboxing, fast video editing, etc, and it changes the entire song!
Since you've already watched Can't Hold Us, you might want to try their version of Thrift Shop - where the Trio (Mitch, Scott, Kirstie) all rap in unison! And there's a video of them performing the song in an airport over the PA system while they were waiting to catch a plane - recorded on someone's phone, but it's still pretty amazing, and funny to watch the expressions of the people who are witnessing it but don't know what's going on!
Wait until you hear what they do with that hoary old classic O Come All Ye Faithful! Make sure its the official video. The live is great, but doesn't compare to the official.
“Silent Night” is another incredible one, the official video is live and performed in a church. It’s absolutely beautiful
I agree with everyone saying Oh Come All Ye Faithful, God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and will add Joyful, Joyful from The Evergreen Tour. Can’t wait for more!
Carol of the Bells is one of my favorites. Mitch seemingly doesn’t breath!
As a child of the 50's I have been burnt out on Christmas songs for a long time Until, Until I started listening to Pentatonix's upgraded versions and man I have loved all of them! Glad you liked this one so much, great reaction!
Agreed. So many songs that we al hear over and over again, all our lives….and then we hear PTX versions and life is new and fresh again!
Absolutely! I load all their Xmas CDs in my car and listen to them all Xmas season….they’re pretty much the only group I listen to for holiday music
I keep hearing people say that Hallelujah is sung in church or that they think of it as a Christmas or a Christian song - that always surprises me because it's really not. The most well-known lyrics are cast in Biblical imagery, but Cohen claimed up to 150 draft verses that he would also switch around during performances. I guess this isn't really vital information ;-), I just think it's a pity if people are put off by what they assume is a religious connection because it's just too brilliantly lyrical for that! Also, most of the Biblical imagery is actually from the Hebrew Bible so the religious connotations are not even necessarily (just) Christian.
Came for the “Mitch-Slap”!
Wasn’t disappointed 😉
Haha love it
Might I suggest their mashup La La Latch. The production of it is incredible. Pure perfectiojn. Usage of all of their talent and art. Look forward to your next reaction!!!
Yes! This!
good Mitch Slap there, check out 'Carol of the Bells' and 'Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy' I'm glad you did react to this and that you didn't just brush it aside, keep going on this journey
ok in order of singing we Scott (Baritone/Bass), Avi (Bass), Kirstie (Mezzo-Soprano), Mitch (Tenor/Counter-Tenor), lastly and certainly by no means least Kevin (BeatBoxer/Cellist/Tenor)
Pentatonix always add non-Christmas songs to their Christmas albums. They would be the first to admit that this is not really a Christmas song. There is another song with the word "Hallelujah" in it that may have been sung at church. The lyrics of this song are not church-like. It's about love gone wrong, sex, betrayal, etc. Thank you for reacting to this beautiful Pentatonix video. Starting now, you can react to 2 Pentatonix "Christmas" songs every day until 12-25-22 and still not complete them all.
Fun fact :- This was shot in the desert. Because this is a "christmas" based song, they are rugged up warm because christmas is in the middle of winter for you guys (Aussie girl here!). HOWEVER ..... this was shot in the middle of summer ..... in the desert ..... rugged up!!! Yeah. What musicians will do for their craft!!! 😄
You probably know by now that this is not a religious song. It’s about love and heartbreak. Glad you enjoy it. 😊
You should defiantly check out bohemian rhapsody, the sound of silence and New Rules × Are You That Somebody. Pretty awesome stuff!
Good suggestions! Extra ones...just for the fun they can inject into older songs...My Favourite Things ( Julie Andrews cover), Over The River ( feat Lindsey Sterling).
Mitch slapped! ❤️🙌🙌🙌🙌🎶 You've gotta check out their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. It's amazing!
Many people assume the song _Hallelujah_ is religious. Even I admit it sounds that way, and understand if people are uplifted by it. But Leonard Cohen, the songwriter, was at various times an atheist and Buddhist. To him, it was a song of desire, even sexual desire. He used Biblical allusion and repeated the word "halllelujah" as tools, but his meaning was not what many assume.⬅
BTW, even Pentatonix understood this was not a religious song. They originally recorded an actual religious--oriented version. The sent it to Mr. Cohen as a courtesy, who was on his deathbed at the time. He asked them that if they wanted to record his song, please use his lyrics. They did, and released the accurate version, becoming their biggest hit.
I'm looking forward to your reactions to a few of their Christmas songs. Who would think they could make Silent Night a song you never heard before??? They also put their unusual twists on Oh, Come All Ye Faithful and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, for which they won a Grammy! A few original songs you might like are Can't Sleep Love, Love Again and Water.
I never liked that song until Pentatonix sang it. Saying that they don't do covers, they enhance them, is no joke. Now it's one of my favorites.
I feel that
Enjoyed your reaction. Scott, the first singer, took the bass line when Avi had his solo.
I know others may have said PTX doesn’t do covers, they do upgrades…but it seems to fit.
I would enjoy your reaction to O Come All Ye Faithful. Kevin worked out an arrangement that will blow your mind.
Also, for fantastic up-beat Christmas songs with wonderfully complex arrangements, check out PTX's Carol Of The Bells, O Come All Ye Faithful (trust me!! :)), 12 Days Of Christmas (seriously!!!), Joy To The World, and Good Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
I would add the older version of "Little Drummer Boy" to the list of overplayed / worn out songs... until PTX did their arrangement. It's from around 2012.
Yes! All of the above please!!!
Yes, their holiday music is second to none.
2 of their 3 Grammy Awards are for Arrangement....so yep, they know how to turn a song!!
If you are afraid of slow christmas songs, you should look their version from O Come, All Ye Faithfull, it is definitly not slow 🤪😜
Yes, this!
Before he died, Leonard Cohen said that this PTX cover of his song is the best version he ever heard. The best review ever. As far as Christmas is concerned, you might want to check out "Mary Did You Know" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" for starters. And "Bohemian Rhapsody" will blow your mind! btw: Nice reaction.
I still love PopSpring 2016 the most but this and their live version of this both with Avi and their newest one from their Christmas tour with Matt (there is a shocking surprise in there) are beyond phenomenal. I think I would still choose their version of the Prayer.
This version is hands down the best cover version ever made of this song imo.
This version really hit me in the feels when Mitch (the Counter Tenor) goes up to the "It's a cold and it's a Broken Hallelujah" part .
This might be my favorite Pentatonix song ever, but I am still amazed that people think this is a religious song just because it has the word "hallelujah" in it. It's about emotional bondage and the near-religious experience of a passionate relationship. That some kids' choirs do this song blows my mind.
Enjoyed your reaction and review! Subscribed to go on your Pentatonix journey with you. Nothing is better than hearing this band’s songs for the first time (again) through someone who’s actually listening for the first time! They are incredible!
🙏🖤
When music gives you goosebumps you know it's distinct and exceptional and has touched your soul. That's what PTX does, You should check out their version of Bohemian Rhapsody where rock meets a capella. It showcases their creativity and talent and their ability to transform an iconic song into something remarkably their own while preserving the beauty and integrity of the original.
You're gonna love "Blinding Lights"
Love the whole ‘Home’ EP!
No matter how many times I hear this, I'm swept up by it. I don't think this counts as a Christmas song, but if you are looking for a good actual Christmas song of theirs, I recommend 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen'. It's an eye opener!
Hi, O come all ye faithful (like you never imagined) you'll want to jump up and dance !
To me there are only two versions of Hallelujah that are worth preserving for eternity: Leonard Cohen's original is a beautiful, intimate, bittersweet confession of love that wasn't meant to be. Pentatonix' rendition is takes that realization of loss and gives it wings of an angel, turning the sense of depression and emptiness into newly realized freedom - and in the final verses, PTX let the song soar high like a hopeful hymn.
I acknowledge that Hallelujah was performed by many acclaimed artists, but none of them ever came even close to these two versions.
My 4yr old granddaughter is obsessed with pentatonix but especially with this song. Every time we get in the car that's the first song she asks to see! Great reaction and welcome to the never ending rabbit hole! #pentaholic4life
That’s awesome! Haha thanks, I’m enjoying this rabbit hole so far 👌
Definitely need to hear Oh Come All ye Faithful!
I'm sure you have been told by now but Avi left the group and Matt came into the group. There is a video called the introduction of Matt Sallee that I hope you will watch on your own time if you don't want to do a reaction to it. Teaser: Scott always says that Matt is proof that dreams do come true every time he steps on that stage. You'll see why he says that in that video. Matt is like a ball of sunshine and joy all of the time. If you want me to get you the link just ask and I will be happy to
Pentatonix just uploaded hallelujah from their Christmas concert 2021. Matt takes his verse and makes it even better. It's on their you tube page.
They have taken songs, like Say Something, that I didn't like & made me love it
Imagine and Sound of Silence are 2 more you definitely need to check out. Seriously. The vocals in Imagine are beyond incredible.
You are right when you say that PTX brings their own spin to a song. I am not a fan of the typical Little Drummer Boy song, but the PTX version is one of my favourite Christmas songs of theirs. Please check it out!
I would love to see you check out their performances on the Sing Off where they initially got their start. There's 12 performances all together - Season 3 of the Sing Off. It's really cool to go back to when they first started to see their beginnings and to see how much they have improved up to now. If you do the Sing Off - make sure to find the ones with the pre-post commentary/interviews and the judges commentary. Mitch was so shy back then and most of his performances during the Sing Off were done in his lower register up until the 11th or 12 performance - the first semi Mitch-Slap! And Kirsty too has come a long way in her confidence over the course of her career. It's so awesome to see!
The second soloist is the great basso profundo Avi Kaplan.
He is no longer with the group but has a flourish solo career.
I consider him the greatest lyricist of our day.
He harkens back to the likes of James Taylor, John Denver, Paul Simon and other
great Americana Folk and Western muxic
You should hear, Oh Come All Ye Faithful! They really made that one over! They're so good, the Christmas Carols and Songs are all new! Carol of The Bells is a fantastic song. You wonder when Mitch is going to take a breath. Loved it the first time you almost whispered, "I get it." Thank you for trusting the Pentaholics and trying this.
Each of the members is a musical powerhouse. Combined, they are a force of nature. One thing to comment about is that there are 3 verses and 5 times the chorus sung. The incredible thing is that each is a distinctly different arrangement than rhe others. With the verses it is not surprising as the lead moves from one to the next.
I would suggest reviewing Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine, and The Prayer. Each is, in its own way, a magnificent piece of musiv. What PENTATONIX does with them will bkow your socks off.
The "Machine" that is Pentatonix. I can see that you really enjoyed that ride! You're right, every one of their songs are made their own. ALL the Christmas tunes are a new experience. So modern! You should react to Mr Grinch now. Matt is phenomenal in it and Scott covers the Bass while Matt takes the lead.
So many favorite Pentatonix songs. Right now, I'm really liking Problem, Blinding Lights, Happy Now... I could go on. Listen to Come All Ye Faithful - it is nothing like you can imagine. Then listen to Imagine, Sound of Silence... *shutting up now*
They upgrade every song they cover. And they’ve got some great originals too!
You have no idea how much Pentatonix revitalizes Christmas music. They even made me like Twelve Days Of Christmas! Recommend their live Joyful Joyful performance from last year’s Evergreen Christmas tour.
It isn't a church song, please listen to the words. It is about love being something that breaks you. No church song would reference someone who out-drew you!!!
"How good can they make any of those songs." Ahhh, innocence. Keep going down the rabbit hole, Alice, and you end up in Wonderland.
🐰🤘
This Hallejuah is not a religious song, it is Leonard Cohen using Biblical references to describe a relationship that falling apart
Man, man, man… you HAVE TO listen to “The Little Drummer Boy.” It blew my mind- I guess I never really listened to the words…..I listened last Winter from November to March!
Added to the list! 👌📝
O Come All Ye Faithful and Over the River will change your attitude toward about Xmas music.
Brother that's one thing about Pentatonix it doesn't matter what song or what time of year whether it's x-mas or holloween just listen to whatever is recommended to you trust us pentaholics you will love it!!
If this group singing this song does not evoke an involuntary emotional response, you are not human
I've been a fan of Pentatonix since day one on the TV show the Sing Off. They just had something more than any other group. The tall blonde is Scott, the dark haired guy is Mitch, the beatboxer is Kevin, the girl is Kirstin and the one with long hair and beard is Avi who was replaced by Matt when he left on good terms. (Trust me, I was sad he left but Avi Kaplan has done some solo stuff) I'm not a huge fan of Christmas songs myself (my sister has tormented me with them growing up), but Pentatonix cover of "Mary, did you know?" Is one of my faves and their version is my second favorite (someone I personally know sang it and their voice is very dear to me) czcams.com/video/ifCWN5pJGIE/video.html
Thanx. Just keep going. So much great material from this epic group
Just wait 'til you see/hear their remake of "O Come All Ye Faithful"...
Another "slow" church song is "O Come All Ye Faithful." Check out the PTX upgrade--amazing!!!
Pentatonix Songs:
(React to EVERYTHING on their channel . . it’s an entire rabbit hole of material past and present. They were amazing when they started and have only gotten better as they have worked more. ..
2021: “Christmas Under the Stars” to see their work LIVE
Evergreen Tour 2021 - Anything LIVE from their tour is also great to listen to for “real LIVE” performances. . . .they never disappoint.

Notes:
Original Bass: Avi Kaplan (People say he looks like Jesus) - Lett the group for family reasons. Matt Salle replaced him.
When Matt has a verse, Scott (blonde) will step in on Bass. He (& Matt) has an insane range!
Mitch: He’s a chameleon in both clothes and hair with an amazing voice and crazy range.
Kirstin: Only Female, amazing voice and strength
Kevin: Beatboxer & Singer - He’s amazing
** EVERYTHING they do sounds the same LIVE. Their philosophy is that if they can’t perform it live and sound the same, they won’t cover or make the song.
Scott, Mitch, Kirsten are all from Arlington, TX (DFW Area) and went to school together
Thank you so much for not interrupting the video like so many reactors do.
I ALWAYS LOVE Pentatonix's versions of songs (they have even made me love songs i completely can not even stand to listen to it until they re-do it...perfect example for me would be "Havana") They are insanely talented and beautiful people!!!! They get their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and i simply can not wait to see them receive it!!!! They totally blow me away everytime they open their mouths!!!
Christmas upgrades you Must react to:
Oh come all ye faithful
Where are you Christmas
12 days of christmas
Grinch
Mary did you know
Carol of the bells
Jingle bells
Deck the halls
Joy to the world
And their original That's Christmas to me
I strongly recommend Gold, New Rules, La La Latch, Can't Sleep Love, and Imagine as your short list. But, could just as easily add Bohemian Rhapsody and Sing to that list also.
You should check out joyful joyful live from the evergreen tour.
Have you heard Pentatonix/Sound of Silence? I think you are going to enjoy it. I enjoyed your reaction and even more so, glad you enjoyed Hallelujah! It is .....heavenly perfection.
Most excellent reaction!
Thank you 🙏
This is my favorite version! I could listen to it all the time!
This is not a Christmas song. They did include it on one of their Christmas albums, which is perhaps partly why people think that it is. But just because it's called "Hallelujah" does not make it a "churchy" song, or--honestly--a Christmas song. It's extremely complex, and Leonard Cohen was in no way a simple writer.
You've probably had way too many suggestions of PTX to listen to but once you start down that rabbit hole, there's no turning back! You've reacted to a couple of my favorites already, including this one. Some other really good ones are Imagine, The Prayer, Amazing Grace, Mary Did You Know (seems like a lot of religious songs but it's worth the listen even if that's not your particular flavor), Mad World, The Wizard of Ahhhs with Todrick Hall... I could go on! 😍
New subscriber here... I have listened to this song and reactions at LEAST 30 times. our reaction is my favorite yet! You GET this group after only listening to Daft Punk and Hallelujah. It takes most people longer to really understand the depth of this group. Great reaction!!
Wow, thank you! 🙏🖤
Their version of Sound of Silence and Bohemian Rhapsody is fantastic
Loved your reaction.
I'm so glad to hear that you are going to give their other covers. (Christmas or not)
ALL of their music is the same. Just simply wonderful.
If you are interested in seeing how they got their start, watch the sing off season 3.
Your face when Mitch hit those notes is known as being "Mitch Slapped"!
Absolutely love this version of hallelujah by pentatonix, great reaction Sean can’t wait to see what’s next , keep up the great work! 🙌🏻
🙏🖤
You are one of the best reactors on CZcams. You don't just vibe with the song. I'm amazed at how you can quickly pick up in various elements to the song. In just one listen. And not just this video, but pretty much every other video you've reacted to. Your channel should grow to over 100k subscribers. I'm looking forward to see you receive that silver CZcams plaque!
You'll probably love their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody and the Sound of Silence. If you like BTS, they also did a mashup of Butter and Dynamite.
Dude! You are so hooked! Welcome to the rabbit hole. You will enjoy this journey and we’ll be here to ride along. After listening most of us need a ‘moment’ to recover.
🙏🖤
When Avi sings, Scott takes over the bass...
I understand that Mr. Cohen listened to this rendition and he gave "both thumbs up".....he was very pleased not to mention the now famous "mitch slap" at the end.....it happens EVERY time.....LOL.....I hope you stay as there is a lot to listen to.....ENJOY!!
Haha that’s awesome
I appreciate that you play the entire video without interruptions. Thank you.
I try 🙏
Your a mean one Mr Grinch, the most fun...
Definitely NOT your grandma’s Hallelujah. Haha. Glad you liked it.
They have a very recent live version from their most current concert tour for their Evergreen Christmas album this past summer. It’s worth checking out. They are no less impressive live.
Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah isn’t the church version.
They won me over the first time I heard them sing it.
Fan ever since.
Not many reactors revisit comments from reactions recorded months before .
Just another reason to appreciate you.
Thank you .
You should check out their version of O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL.. you were mentioning Christmas songs and that just came to mind.. It's an exciting twist to what you're used to..
Most times those high notes are hit by Mitch, not Kirstie.. She is a mezzo soprano but he is a counter tenor..
My favorite version of this song was by K.D. Lang. This was the first PTX song I listened to, and it has become my favorite version.....It made be cry. I love your reaction to Mitch.....when I first heard this I wasn't sure if it was a guy or a girl.
I was glad that Leonard Cohen got to enjoy this version of his biggest song before he died 🥰
I so enjoyed your reaction to Hallelujah. Honestly, any song you chose to listen to by PTX is going to be a good one, and you do have plenty from which to choose. A personal favorite of mine lately is Anchor, an original from The Lucky Ones album. Another favorite is Imaginary Parties from Superfruit, a side project from Scott and Mitch for a while. Peace from Ohio …
Hi Sean, I was on your channel this morning, I enjoyed your reaction. Have you listened to Sound of Silence or The Prayer..or Imagine, they are heavenly perfection! I'm so glad you enjoyed them.
Hallelujah is not a church song. Unless the lyrics are changed of course. Pentatonix is singing the original lyrics written by Leonard Cohen.
