    Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. A bit later than the originally planned release date of Dec 12th, here is a simple little Christmas arrangement I made around this beautiful song. It's fascinating how this one always finds itself on Christmas albums, even though it's not a carol or even Christmas-themed - but this trend only started recently. In 2008, UK X Factor winner Alexandra Burke and Jeff Buckley both had chart topping covers before Christmas, and this decade saw extremely popular Christmas releases by Susan Boyle, Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix! However, it's also interesting to see that the original by Cohen was also released in December, also shortly before Christmas. It's very possible we're seeing a new Christmas carol appearing right before our eyes!! Hope you enjoy this (and perhaps get a chance to play it yourself before the holiday season is over), and I hope you had an awesome Christmas ♥

      He is just playing arpeggios with 10th chords and harmonising the melody with the right hand. It's a common pianist adaptation, not particularly hard to perform and very nice to hear. You can do it with any song.

    'it's a beautifully constructed melody that steps up, evolves, and slips back, all in quick time. But this song has a connective chorus, which when it comes in has a power all of its own. The 'secret chord' and the point-blank I-know-you-better-than-you-know-yourself aspect of the song has plenty of resonance for me.'

      Leonard Cohen's used "The Holy Dove" not "The Holy Dark" but the song has been covered and reworked so many times that there are many different versions out there. Not to mention there were so many verses he didn't include in the studio version, but would play live. It's an incredible song, that has meant many different things to different people.

    Lyrics: Now, I've 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
    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 a kitchen chair
    She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
    And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    You say I took the name in vain
    I don't even know the name
    But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
    There's a blaze of light in every word
    It doesn't matter which you heard
    The holy or the broken Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    I did my best, it wasn't much
    I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
    I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
    And even though it all went wrong
    I'll stand before the Lord of Song
    With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    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 is not a victory march
    It's a cold and it's a broken 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 hear at night
    It's not somebody who's seen the light
    It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    L'manburg National Anthem
    [Verse 1]
    I heard there was a special place,
    Where men could go and emancipate,
    The brutality
    And tyranny
    Of their rulers.
    Well, this place is real
    You needn’t fret
    With Wilbur, Tommy, Tubbo, NOT Eret
    A very big and not blown up L’manburg
    [Chorus]
    My L’Manburg
    My L’Manburg
    My L’Manburg
    My L’Manburg
    [Verse 2]
    For freedom and for liberty,
    Our nation sought to build on these,
    A victory for all under our freedom,
    Well the darkness came and then it went,
    We built a home and watched it end,
    And from the rubble
    Emerged my great
    L’Manburg
    [Chorus]
    My L’manburg
    My L’manburg
    My L’manburg
    My L’manburg
    [Verse 3]
    With hands, bloodied
    And knees, feeble.
    Our people rose like
    The Grand Eagle,
    Our empty fields and canals ‘round
    L’Mantree.
    With sweat and tears we armed our ranks,
    We laid foundations in our land,
    And all lips from here up to forever
    [Final Chorus]
    We sing L’Manburg
    We sing L’Manburg
    We sing L’Manburg
    We sing L’Manburg

      a) If you took the time to actually read the lore of L’Manburg and the DreamSMP, you’d know how sad ‘My L’Manburg’ truly is.
      b) Just because you don’t like Minecraft or the DreamSMP or whatever inane reason you have for shitting on people being DreamSMP nerds together, doesn’t mean you have to shit on us.
      c) You’re using the term ‘Dream stans’ completely incorrectly. The DreamSMP was set up by the Green Man, yes, but the song is ‘My L’Manburg’, a song written by WilburSoot as the national anthem of L’Manburg, a fictional nation which Dream’s character is entirely opposed to.
