The definitive version for many. Jeff Buckley transcends the original with breathtaking emotional intensity. His falsetto on the final verses is unforgettable.

Bob Dylan covered Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" during a concert in Montreal in 1988, honoring Cohen in his hometown.

Klezmer musician Daniel Kahn performs a moving version of this song, translated into Yiddish. Posted two days after the passing of Leonard Cohen on November 7, 2016.

Beautiful version on lap steel guitar.

This is the version that reignited interest in the song. John Cale, former Velvet Underground member, turns it into a minimalist piano piece.

A masterful performance at the Juno Awards. k.d. lang captures all the spirituality and sensuality of the song with a perfectly controlled voice.

An orchestral and theatrical version popularized by the movie Shrek. Rufus brings a baroque grandeur to the song.
