I usually hate when people cover this song because so many people have done it and you can't really cover it, but Gord downie proved me wrong. This is and will be the best version of the song.
RIP my friend... may you be at peace and no longer in pain. you truly were a inspiration to many especially to those fighting cancer ,,, my condolences to your family and friends!
I've lived, eaten & breathed Hip since 'Up To Here', how did I not know Gord did a version of 'Hallelujah'!? Very moving! We Love You Gord! #FuckCancer
Thank you Gord Downie. Thank you for making us proud Canadians even prouder of our country. Canada's Shakespeare with the voice of an angel. You are free now so rock out in the heavens. RIP Mr Downie
I was listening to Gordon's Vancouver Divorce and after the song, I learned he passed away because of cancer. What a tragic loss. He was really a great singer-songwriter. I truly hope he rests in peace by now.
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU for sharing this song. I have loved it since the movie came out years ago. I fought for the release of the soundtrack they started but never published. Best version, best verses by far. I'm full of sorrow to hear Gord is fighting cancer. Such a haunting voice. I'm praying for VICTORY over cancer, in Jesus Name AMEN! FIX IT, GOD...
I'm not a Christian and I really love this song.Well, it's not about religious issues for me, it's like about what you,who you really are.Your tryings,your exhausting days because of working,blief,and the others. Rest in peace good souled man.
Adam Your movie Saint Ralph is one of my all time favorites. I played it for my dear Mother who loved it! She died in Feb. 2016. The song is so heartfelt. Gord did it best. Hey Adam wishing you all the best.
what the fuck? i must've forgot to log out of my account. i didnt post that! although strrrrrangely enough my mom DID die of brain cancer, but in September of 2001
A few years ago I came looking for this song, and could only find versions that had audio ripped from the movie. The song was broken up in parts (and possibly incomplete), and was mixed in with the rest of the audio from the film (the announcer, cheering spectators, etc.). Great to hear a complete, "clean" version.
To all of those who made this version possible for release, THANK YOU!!! I know their were some "issues" getting it released after the movie. Im grateful that this version is available for all of us to enjoy and appreciate. Seriously, thank you!
Thank you to the CBC radio ( Halifax ) for playing my request on " One Song in A Row " the day Gord Downie, slipped away.thanks for the tearsDavidNova Scotia
How did I not know this existed until today? NOT the Jeff Buckley arrangement, which is fairly common, but the Leonard Cohen arrangement. I'd expect nothing else from Canada's most angelic voice (my opinion, anyway). Heaven is a better place today, and always, with you in it, Gordie. God how I miss you!
Ron that you ? You there ? Where’s Robert or Gina or Regina or Chris or William anyone speaking English ? Ron sometimes I think that Selena is always there and feels like I do always has felt that way and other times I think she doesn’t know the English language and know me at all and is in done fantasyland ? Ron what’s the truth man I know you only tell the truth and I trust you integrity is your middle name - so what is the answer I can’t figure that out sometimes it’s so easy and sometimes it’s just impossible - ron please don’t walk away - I wouldn’t keep doing the buffering - just play like a champion today and stop making excuses ! Yes Ronny I love her tremendously ! Obviously been years and always the same with that unicorn - 😔 u certain and emptiness - insecure and worried sadness and suffering - 😔😔😔 that’s all those crazy emotions none of them are positive feelings Ronny Good question how long ? Exactly my point ! Just do the English - I promise you it’s worth it ?
The greatest singer story teller in music history. I take some solace that he's playing for the big band in the sky.
You brought tears to my eyes with your words brother. Peace with Gord and peace for you too sir. ✌️ 🙏 Much love from Niagara Falls NY
Thank you for such eloquent words. Beautiful.
RIP to a great Canadian icon and the musical voice of my teen years and beyond. The country is poorer for the loss.
great song writer great singer i really love the way he sings it . miss the both of them.........
This has been my favorite version since the movie came out. There is so much emotion in his voice.
I usually hate when people cover this song because so many people have done it and you can't really cover it, but Gord downie proved me wrong. This is and will be the best version of the song.
Gordon Downie... Hallelujah!!!!!! We're with you all the way!!!!
RIP my friend... may you be at peace and no longer in pain. you truly were a inspiration to many especially to those fighting cancer ,,, my condolences to your family and friends!
I've been looking for this version for years. Thank you.
YEARS!!! I'm so grateful to have found it. I pray someday we get a video of him singing it. I don't think he sang it at his concerts.
one Canadian icon covering another Canadian icon. RIP Leonard and Gordie! Thanks!
This is by far my favorite version. I'm an Atheist, and this this is as close as spiritual as I get. Thank you..
The song is about love and sex, not god and religion. Mr. Cohen was a genius, just like Gord.
I really like the version from Shrek as well
@@Kustomone truth
elusive wild dingo It doesn’t, but thanks for your well throughout articulate comment.
@@jamieh4148 he really fucking was. Much love
Strength, Prayers and tears for Gord! Fight on Brother!!!
This is, by far, my favorite rendition of this song. R.I.P. Gord.
I've lived, eaten & breathed Hip since 'Up To Here', how did I not know Gord did a version of 'Hallelujah'!? Very moving! We Love You Gord! #FuckCancer
How did I not find out until 4 years after you? :)
Rest in peace, Gord. Canada already feels emptier without you. Say hi to Leonard for us.
Takes me to my happy place. Thanks Mr.Cohen & Mr Downie.
Thank you Gord Downie. Thank you for making us proud Canadians even prouder of our country. Canada's Shakespeare with the voice of an angel. You are free now so rock out in the heavens. RIP Mr Downie
Like all his music, the more times you listen to it, the more you feel it and gets better and better. Gives me chills...such a great version!
RIP gord...thank you for all the memories :'(
映画も素晴らしかったですがラストスパートで、一番馬鹿にしてた学生が一番熱く応援してる姿、そしてこの挿入歌は涙が止まらなかった！
I was listening to Gordon's Vancouver Divorce and after the song, I learned he passed away because of cancer.
What a tragic loss. He was really a great singer-songwriter. I truly hope he rests in peace by now.
Watched this movie in my religion class on thursday and today. Such an amazing movie!

RIP Mr. Gordie Downie ✝️💟 Hallelujah hosanna in the highest...Hallelujah!!!

Al the best to Gord Downie's battle with brain cancer.
You were great in Saint Ralph, one of my favorite movies!
Thanks Vic. :)
Adam Your movie Saint Ralph is one of my all time favorites. I played it for my dear Mother who loved it! She died in Feb. 2016. The song is so heartfelt. Gord did it best. Hey Adam wishing you all the best.
Matthew, I'm so sorry for your loss of your Mom. Glad you liked Saint Ralph. All the best to you too. Adam :)

Forever in our hearts! Rest in peace Gord!
Go easy brother. Thank you. For all of this. For everything.
Amazing song sung by an amazing artist. We will genuinely miss Mr. Downie (and Mr. Cohen).
Every time I hear this song it hits me right in the feels.
Miss you bro... Best version ever. 💙
Been looking for this version for a long time, thanks.
This is so incredible, thank you so very very much !
Hallelujah indeed. Rest in peace Gord Downie.

Goosebumps with tears.
If context is king, this is too powerful for words....
Ça m'fera pas devenir plus croyant, mais c'est une merveille à écouter...
May God be with you through this extremely tough time..ty for your talent.
R.I.P. Gord you will be missed
me too, the tragic mighty power of the all mighty; brutally beautiful.
Gord Downie singing "Hallelujah"?! Can anything ever come close to this?!
Not any other version. This one grabs you.
Theresa Reilly it feels more real, more raw. its not a song putting his skills on display, rather he sings with sort of a pure broken emotion (imo)
nothing. this is the best.
Exactly. The song seeps emotion. Its so beautiful they way Gord sang it.
Courage. His word.Apparently it has come, and it does matter.
yes
It couldn't come at a worse time. :(
So beautiful.
simply.......beautiful.....#courageforgord
Amen Gordon, you were a wonderful human being. Rest In Peace sir 🙏 😔
I never cared for this song until now. Gord does it justice. Kinda pulls on the heartstrings and then some. I guess music does calm the savage beast.
RIP Gord :(
