    I did 3 verses with words associated with my sons birthday. For someone who does not know music , I don't think that I did too bad job. I did this several years ago for his 25th birthday. Great video.

    I 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
    The fourth
    The fifth,
    The minor fall,
    The major lift
    The baffled king
    Composing Hallelujah
    Hallelujah......
    Hallelujah......
    Hallelujah......
    Hallelu.... ú u ù.... lu.....jah
    Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
    You saw her bathing on the roof
    Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
    She tied you to the kitchen chair
    She broke your throne and she cut your hair
    And from your lips, she drew the Hallelujah
    Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    Well baby, I've been here before
    I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
    I used to live alone before I knew ya
    And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
    And love…

      Thúy Ngọc this is my version...
      Now I heard there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord but you don't really care for music do ya?
      Well it goes like this the forth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift the baffled king composing 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 ya. She tied you to Her kitchen chair she broke your throne and she cut your hair and from your lips she drew the hallelujah. Hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah
      Well maybe there's a God above but all I've ever learned from love was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya. And it's not a cry that you here at night and it's not someone who's seen the like it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah.

    Dear Freya, I just found your video. It will help me a lot. I'm a 50-y old guy for the first time in my life auditioning for a place at a music institute a month from now. Thank you :) !

    • @alexanderholthoer8972
      @alexanderholthoer8972 3 роки тому +1

      @@_etyn Yes it did. I was accepted :)
      Strange things happened then: I always thought I was a low baritone, but they started training me to be a tenor (!). I progressed fast and my upper range jumped 4 1/2 full notes to B. Mostly classical stuff. So far so good.
      After a year I began to struggle and my voice locked up and I tired very easily. It turned out that my thyroid gland had given up and was causing structural problems. It took me another year trying to sort this out and getting my medication balanced. By then I got a heap of new problems....and had to leave the institute :(

    When Leonard Cohen was asked why he thought this song was so successful he replied, "Because it has such a great chorus." It has been reported that the song originally had 80 verses. I've heard seven of them.

    Someone described themselves as "smitten" by your teaching. I was searching for the best word to describe my feelings about your approach and smitten works for me. I was searching for information about the semantics of this song and, although you were not directly addressing this, your presentation about the singing of the song has helped me considerably. I don't sing hardly at all because I suck at it. But after listening to you, I actually feel like I could learn to suck less. I'm very grateful that I discovered you!

      Cohn was so brilliant. I'm personally a Christian, and it can mean something to me, and something else to a Jewish person, and even something emotion to an atheist. There's no right or wrong......it's simplY your own story told in a very brilliant way. Don't over analyze....or criticize another for wha t it means to them.
      Finally...you have a beautiful way of expressing this beautiful song.
      Thank you
