after hearing the x faxtors souless cover of hallelujah, lets try and get the greatest interpretation of this amazing leonard cohen song, to number1 or at least make enough of a chart impact so that people dont think that alexandras version is the only one out there. so go on dowlnload it if you love jeff buckley or if you dont know who he is download it anyway, its amazing.

Its a good song if that's the one I'm thinking of..

Even if the entirety of Funkypoolers purchased Jeff Buckley's cover of 'Hallelujah', I'm not sure it'd make a blind bit of difference to Alexandra's success with the hit. I have no desire to listen to anything other than Power Metal these days, anyway. I couldn't care who gets whatever success with what covers.

I'm sure this thread could be easily merged with the X Factor thread, anyway. It could possibly be classed as advertisement, too, so be careful on that account.

Well, like all remakes...they need permission to do so, maybe even a percentage on the sales of the song!

mr_mcquiston how much perecentage?

the status quo crimbo song is rather catchy.......good lads

I think she did a great job, Not really sure why people are having digs at her on the net and papers, Jeff B. said himself her version was breath taking.

Indeed!

I only watched that silly show a couple of times with the wife, but I was always convinced by her soul, as well as her amazing good loo..... I mean voice......

i acept it is a shes a good singer, even if she does sound a bit like jimmy nail, i just think its to good a song to be played till saturation point and everyones sick of it. the point of trying to get jeff to number one is as much a protest about x factor killing the xmas number one as anything. the soullessness was in reference to the show itself.

and im not sure jeff b has said much on the subject of the song or anything else for a while now. he tragicly drowned in 97

cant beat 'em might as well join them, all credit given to 'good singers' like leona and alex, who get to number 1.....it bothers me when crappy singers win on popularity factor rather than talent.....you hear that leons song was outsold by Geraldine......it must have been embarrasing for the lad.

Anyway alex doesnt sound like Jimmy Nail you muppet lol
Hallelujah can only be sung by a good vocal and it is nice to hear a good lady vocal sing it...so well done to her....i wont be buying it though
