Peace, love, and metal \m/
Everyone did fantastic!!! Way to go, gentlemen!
You had such a creative take! Absolutely loved it ♥
This was amazing!!!
This is chillingly (in a great way) EPIC!
I love the fact I knew which voice was yours awesome job Dan ❤️
Amazing!
It’s safe to say that this collaboration was heavenly
Hi
Stop following me smh
How are you on every UA-cam video?
@@inazumabokyaku-shinigodsei61 You share favourite UA-cam channels.
@@Sheamuscz I mean the man is even on youtube channels I'm not subbed to. He's just everywhere.
After listening so many times, I realized that every verse shows different approaches to a break-up.
Colm: disappointed indifference and a lack of interest
Dan: liberation from suffering and standing strong
Jonathan: grieving the loss and lamenting over how empty everything feels in the moment
Thomas: reminiscent on the best parts of the relationship and upset that the good times ended
Caleb: pessimistic and seeing love as a waste of time
I think that is a very good perspective. Thank you
I would never have spotted that if you hadn't pointed it out and I enjoyed the prospective you provided
@@jarlairess 😁 Thanks
@@wolffeman9758 😁 Thanks
@@JoyBoy0606 That is a very interesting and convincing interpretation of the song. I was looking at this through the lense of a strictly religious interpretation. Each verse felt like a different part of my life in regards to religion, and the analogy of the times I have broken up with God really resonated with me. That probably wasn't your original meaning, but I thank upunfor giving me some perspective
Omigosh beautiful!!!
Thank you, internet son ❤
@@goatinatrenchcoat Can confirm. Saw him in Michigan recently, great show, and now I can't stop listening to him
Yes
@@CalebHyles Pfft- Haha, internet son?
I think I missed something.
But I seriously loved this! Charlie's right, it is very beautiful.
@@CalebHyles aw
LOOK at my wonderful hat!
Top job, lads!
You had to have Leonard fedora! You matched the tone beautifully ♥
was that you with the amazing bass?
What an amazing deep voice!!
I hadn't even noticed all the names but I recognized your voice as soon as the song started 😍
Haha dude you killed it!
This was played for my grandfathers funeral march, that was years ago and I thought I had moved on, sitting here at work this came on and I found myself tearing up randomly. Beautiful rendition, bravo
the harmony was also amazing at the end
This is definitely something I'd want to be played at my memorial service, either this or Jim Henson's Rainbow Connection
I’m sorry about your grandfather.
@@JustinSchieck i'm sorry for your loss. I lost my grandfather too and he was a good man. He didn't deserve to go
RIP. I recently lost my grandfather to Parkinson’s. I miss him still

Fuck now i am thinking
Moses
David
Jesus
Mohammed
Martin luther
@@electricangel4488 is it left to right or right to left. Afterall, Caleb did a Moses in Prince of Egypt Metal (Plagues).

I've been digging for this comment👍🏼
i was not sure who was thomas because he is very flexible with his voice
Thank you- you need to be pinned or smth
Dan’s version made me feel some kinda way.
thank you!!!!
When Thomas started singing I teared up... it's such a beautiful song. Everyone did an amazing job and hearing Thomas sing this was awesome to me since he has helped me so much through his videos.
This song appeared on a UA-cam mix and I wasn't paying attention to the window, but the moment I heard Thomas I had to stop and make sure it really was him. It's so cool seeing him be recognized like this outside of his personal fans.
Is Thomas the first or the fourth person singing? I’m not familiar with his music
@@annah7793 fourth.
@@annah7793 he doesn't do music too often, he's more of a sketch comedy guy, but the music he does do is amazing. I recommend Gay Disney Prince.
Mf I didnt make it past the first verse lol
Thank you for having me for this!! Incredibly honored!
Thomas, you were INCREDIBLE here! Bravo, good sir! 👏🏻
Thomas you were amazing
You Did an *AMAZING* Job Mr. Sanders💙💙💙💙
Amazing like always! I really wanted to hear a collab with Caleb, I'm so happy!
Good job Thomas. I hope you collab again
Caleb's out here assembling talented singers like the freakin' Avengers, and I'm here for it!
Yassss caleb hyles is the nick fury of UA-cam musical talent
Yes he absolutely is
Caleb's Avengers
"There was an idea... to bring together a group of remarkable people. So that when we needed them, they could sing the songs that we never could."
Just wait until they "assemble" on a RWBY soundtrack.
This is the first Caleb Collab where Jonathan doesn't sound wildly out of place by being two whole vocal ranges below everyone else.
No, this time it’s Jonathan _and Colm_ who sound wildly out of place by being two whole vocal ranges below everyone else.
In all seriousness, their voices work magnificently with this group.
@@tai-imyr849 more like colm being 3 ranges below everyone else
@@CivilMold pretty sure Johnathan has a deeper voice. He's a bass and Colm is a baritone. Colm is just very good at getting into the bass range as well.
@@thebreadman5949 you are wrong, Jonathan and Colm are basses
idk i love when he sings lol
Im in tears
Same
Tu aqui cat oloko
Same
same my guy
Same the quality (and the song itself) is just *muah*
One word: Hallelujah.
This should be the vooperian anthem ;)
Hallelujah
Hmmm..... I will one day declare war on vooperia
... no extra words needed
Hallelujah
The deep voice on 0:50 seconds is really impressive! I'm just singing alone to this with my Alto female voice and here I am like omg... DAMN THAT DEEP!
I just stopped shocked 😳
Same!😂
Puberty hits everyone hard. Other than me.
Thats Colm R McGuiness
me burping be like:
he got good voice control
I keep forgetting UA-camrs exist as people that can interact with each other. The fact that someone like Markiplier and Thomas Sanders can be connected by a few people is ASTONISHING.
wait, who did mark work with?
@@2-Way_Intersection Mark knows Arin and Dan from Game Grumps, Dan from Game Grumps has NSP, Brian from NSP collabed with Jonathan, now Jonathan has worked with Thomas.
Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon is reborn!
@@2-Way_Intersection mark has worked with natewantstobattle, who has worked with caleb, who has worked with thomas sanders
@@randomaccountofthings you beat me too it
This song, despite being originally written by and often preformed by one person, is perfect for a group to cover. The interpretation I've heard and like is that each verse is what 'Hallelujah' means to different people, so splitting up the song among different singers is a really cool way to display that.
I'm not too familiar with the lyrics, but the second verse at least showcases King David ("saw her bathing on the roof") -- who's also mentioned in the first verse -- and what sounds like Samson (tied down, cut hair). Not sure what that might say about the other verses. Samson's tale is about a guy who kept falling for bad women, and David had tons of wives without being satisfied and murdered a guy to take his wife as well, so...
@@Arkylie David was known as the "singing king", but he had a lot of trouble near the end of his life, if memory from Sunday school serves me.
"Your faith was strong but you needed proof" is also a reference to Thomas the apostle, who put his hand in the wound left by the Romans' lance to know for sure that Jesus was back.
"Love is not a victory march" could be a reference to the walls of Jericho and how they were brought down with trumpets.
The fourth verse for me has very ~intimate~ connotations, which blurs the line here between love/romance and faith/religion.
What I love is that they left the original phrase "Maybe there's a God above" because questioning it is a core Jewish thing with faith, and the songwriter was Jewish. I think that, overall, the song is kind of a love song and kind of a faith song, the divine and sacred act of loving, and holding on to love like one holds on to faith even in the face of doubt about it.
It's a very complex song and therein lies its beauty,
Never thought of the song like that. Now I love it even more ❣️
I love this. But you should also hear the Pentatonix version as well. that one is also divine
No, it's not. The poem is ONE man's struggle with religion. Having multiple people sing it kind of muddies the actual meta artistry behind Cohen's performance.
This was my grandmother's favorite song. She passed away back in April, and this came out briefly before what would be her 81st birthday.
Needless to say, I cried a bit.
Well done.
I'm sorry for your loss
I'm sorry, I'm sure she's watching over you now 🤗
I'm so sorry for your loss but don't worry she's in a better place now!
So Sorry for your loss But She will be Listening to This Forever in Heaven.
L to R: Colm McGuiness, Dan Vasc, Jonathan young, Thomas Sanders, Caleb Hyles
Absolutely beautiful job everyone! I especially love how everyone's personal singing styles gelled together so well!!
edit: OMG thanks this is the most likes I've ever got! 1.3K was a big surprise!!!!
Thank you for the list
Thank you
Thanks you I didn’t know who was who.
I came to the comments to ask this
Legned
Thank you
I never realized how soft Thomas 's voice is before listening to him sing alongside strong and deep voices. It reminds me how light his voice is, honestly.
He was singing soft. He can do power vocals, and he's a baritone. It was a stylistic choice for the song.
@@WelcomeApathy yes, I know and I'm saying I never realized how soft he can be. /nm. I mean, I have listened to his songs and covers before. I just like how light his voice is in this cover.
Which one is Thomas? Im having a hard time telling.
@@talstales4868 I believe he’s the 4th person
He definitely has a more Broadway good boy voice. I like the contrast it gives to the others' voices that are more gravelly.
Why do I feel like a widowed multi-millionare in a fancy restaurant sipping on whiskey alone at a bar at 8 PM trying to cope with my loneliness before suddenly seeing my true love out of the corner of my eye.
Seriously this is absolutely stunning.
Thats oddly specific
r/oddlyspecific
The deepness of the voices...send shivers down my spine
And just like that...
*claps* I'm gayeee!!
Many of us have deep voices.
Only a few of us sound as nice as this with them.
SAME
@@chaoscontroller316 well the fact is singing is all about training practice and confidence for majority of if. To be a baritone or tenor is great but to utilize your voice is the same as any other instrument
@@Symbolic-Sky that is true, you could be naturally gifted and have a nice voice, but your technique can be horrible, it depends on how you use that voice
Thomas and Caleb collabing (with other amazing people too!) just started making me scream
I'm in a restaurant. I did the same.
MY JAW FUCKING DROPPED!
After i hear they group singing "The wellerman" and I saw this thumbnail... I didn't think twice before clicking
when they all harmonized together i got literal chills- like all the hairs on my arms literally stood up 👏🏼 amazing job
Ikr?!
Single tear came out when they harmonized
Yeah sure :/
😊
Gods, your collabs are always so... heavy? Intense? Epic? I don't know the word. You capture something in these that I just don't get from too many other collabs, big or small. When you rally the bois and I see that wonderful graphic light up with the vocals through the song, I'm near tears. Joy, beauty, sorrow, or pure astonishment, the tears are pure and I couldn't be happier about that. Thank you, all you wonderful gents for this wonder. And thanks as well to all the beautiful people listening to and supporting you guys with me. Godspeed, lads.
No words describe their Collabs.
Even in solemnity, we find the delights of cooperation are steeped with brevity, and a lightness that cannot be spoken, only heard.
Definitely epic
I think maybe you might be looking for the word "enrapturing".
Mesmerizing
*listening to the majority of the song* : Damn, all these people are sooo good!
*when all five sing the final chorus* : They snatched my soul and sent it to another dimension!
THE VERSE THOMAS SANG, I HAD NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE NOW- Sorry, this cover sent literal shivers down my spine and gave me so many endorphins....
Well, it's supposed to be "Holy Dove." It's not Dark or Duck, like he sang.
Same
@@kingjudiciousmorticiangodo1924 I don’t think there is a “right” version of that verse. It’s been the holy dove, holy dark, and holy light alternatively. That fits with the spirit of the piece, though, because the piece is centered around the subjective emotional interpretation of the word “Hallelujah”. It’s different in different situations - means different things to different people - it’s more like an exclamation than anything else. It’s a much more abstract song, I think, than most people appreciate.
Honestly you should listen to the various versions of Hallelujah. I think I’ve heard at least 13 of them. I believe some people made their own verses. It’s really moving, and hearing everyone relate to it in their own way makes me feel connected to humanity.
I love that they did this piece in 5 parts with different artists. To me it’s become a piece that symbolizes the unity of the emotional experience of life.
@@AK-jt7kh I have heard a few of them, but the ones that have it use dove.
As if the Wellerman, and Zero to Hero covers weren’t star studded enough now we have freakin Thomas Sanders and Dan Vasc, this is the best year for collabs!
I feel like Thomas Sanders is Loki in disguise. How can a man be so wildly talented all over and be able to deliver it perfectly
Yes
Eh, he’s much too sweet, but you’ve got a point!
Well, there is Janus.
@@azurewriter8347 Janus is too snakey to be Loki. I'd vote Remus, pure chaos incarnate.
@@torazely But there was that one time where Loki turned into a snake. Thor loved snakes so he picked it up to admired it. And then he turned back and was like 'Mrah, it's me!'. And then he stabbed him
I like to imagine this is like a group of guys bonding in a bar over being sad, like in a musical
like i can see it in a move where each guy had something happen and now they are crying over beers with buddies.
Colm is a musician, he had a partner and they had a big show together, but they (the partner) just wanted the glory and ditched him as soon as they got some recognition
Dan just got out of a very unhealthy relationship, but still misses them
Jonathan lost his partner, they died in war, and he just got the news
Thomas just got out of a very healthy relationship, and misses them
Caleb had gotten into a big fight with someone he really cares for, and doesn't know if he can ever fix the relationship.
like i know what the actual song is about, im just having fun :D
Damn that's.......sad but beautiful.
This.... does put a smile on my face.
That's a very moving interpretation.
They have the vocal talent. Now they just need to find someone to animate a show that might just blow Hazbin Hotel out of the boat
@@jarlairess that's not gonna happen
I said, aloud, “Huuh, dude!” when I read the words “hallelujah” and “Thomas Sanders” for this collab. Let’s go! This is already perfection. I can feel it.
This was a real touch of nostalgia for me
Back in about 2009, I sang this on stage at a varity show with my grandfather playing the saxophone and a family friend playing the piano. My grandfather was a beautiful saxophone player and was entirely self taught and could learn a song by ear in a matter of a couple days. He passed away almost 4 years ago now, so this was a nice little walk down memory lane for me
so sorry for your loss. i lost my grandad to COVID over a year ago now (April 2020) and it's been very hard, even not seeing his face or hearing his voice.
@@diamond_dude1011 I feel for you, my friend and I am sorry for your loss as well. It took me about 6 months to accept my grandfathers death and move on when it happened, and the only reason I was able to move on in that time frame was due to meeting my partner, otherwise I don't know if I would be over his death today.
It can take a lot of time to fully process a death, especially when you're close to them. Just take it day by day ❤
@@SappyDuder Thank you
Damn thats beautiful, be strong man, grandpa is surely keeping an eye at you from above
@@SappyDuder i'm sorry for your loss. My grandfather passed when i was 9. When my mom gave me his ring i started crying and locked myself in my room because i couldn't believe he's gone. Took me i think a year or 2 to accept that he's gone
[Verse 1: Colm R. McGuinness]
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, and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
[Verse 2: Dan Vasc]
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew thе Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallеlujah
Hallelujah
[Verse 3: Jonathan Young]
Maybe I've been here before
I know this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
But love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
[Verse 4: Thomas Sanders]
There was a time you let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
[Verse 5: Caleb Hyles]
Well, maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
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
[Outro: All]
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Halleujah
Ty!!
Go'bless brother
Okay the moment I saw Thomas was in this vid i never went to a video so fast in my life and I WAS NOT DISSAPOINTED! U ALL WERE AMAZING!! Also Colm...HOW CAN A MAN HAVE THAT DEEP OF A VOICE?!😳
His voice is insanely deep it’s so deep that it even amazes Tim from Homefree
EXACTLY
@@fhs2013cb Like this is the first time i heard him sing and I WAS NOT READY!
@@wa6488 YEAH!
Same
I couldn’t be the only one who waited for the *“I heard there was a special place where men could go and emancipate”* and I remembered this was a cover of the real version of Hallelujah and the voices legitimately and softly brought me to a dimension that I never knew that existed and felt the voices touch my heart that gave me goosebumps!✨💖
oh my god yeah... mcyt brainrot ooh boy
Bruuhhh... I was expecting that too but then I realized it's the hallelujah original lyrics and not L'Manberg National anthem >.
Glad I'm not the only one thinking that lol
LMAOOOO
YEP! Me too!
THAT HARMONIZING AT THE END GAVE ME LITERAL CHILLS! BRAVO GENTLEMEN, BRAVO!!
I just want to point out that these guys have amazing bands that have been over shadowed by their cover careers, but should be recognized for great ORIGINAL music.
Caleb Hyles is in FROM THE DARK
Dan Vasc is in FEARLESS
Jonathan Young is in GALACTIKRAKEN.
All of them are outstanding power metal bands, all unsigned.
I should mention I don't know the other singers, they may have original projects, as well.
Galactikraken is less a band and more Jon creating an in-universe band to say they made the songs. It's entirely his own show
@@aragorn767 I can help with Thomas! I'm a HUGE fan of Thomas so-
He has original songs such as On The Borderline, The Things We Used to Share, AND! He also has his own youtube series with original songs in there! Not to mention he has his own musical written by him and his fans and it's really good!! All of the people in the musical are his friends too they all participate in it. He's also done spinoffs of disney songs cause he loves Disney! He's made a disney villain mashup, and a lot of other mash ups. He has an original song dedicated to Disney called A Gay Disney Prince and he collabed with Jon Cozart in that video. And he has a song all about mental health but in a happy way called Recipe For Me!
So Thomas as a LOT of original content. He has 24 if I remember right or I might be miscounting and there's more.
Which! I do strongly suggest checking out his content he makes a lot of content with his friends, lgbtq+ q&a's, songs obviously, and a lot more. And not to mention that show I mentioned! It's called Sanders Sides and I'm obsessed with it cause it's so good he's a great actor.
Caleb did work for the soundtrack of RWBY Volume 7, Ironwood's theme, "Hero" is entirely his vocals I believe.
THANK U
0:46 that "-jah" at the end of Hallelujah got so deep it hit a part of my ear that has never been hit before, damn that's an experience.
Amazing cover
Congrats on finding your first bass voice lmao
@@thisiswrathspeaking2057as someone who's been singing in a choir before, ive heard bass voices many times before lol, just found that note really deep. Deeper than I'm used to hearing and I'm impressed by how deep he could go. :)
@@DorianIanvarius oh, I see I see
Well if you want more of those types of voices, you could look up Geoff Castellucci and Tomi P. They're both great bass singers!
The singer for this part was Colm McGuiness
Colm's range goes quite high too btw
This version has made me love this song again. My ex is in prison for 40 years. He loved this song. I couldn't stand hearing it until now. Its a beautiful song. I've slowly been reclaiming the things that gave me joy before things changed. Thank you for helping, all of you
Dang. I knew Thomas could sing, but I didn't know he could SING! Very impressive, guys.
Out of everyone in the collab, that was the biggest surprise, and an overwhelmingly pleasant one. His voice is _gorgeous._
I did not know about Colm McGuinness or Dan Vasc before this song but now I must look up all their music… The RICHNESS in Colm’s voice and the SOUL in Dan’s absolutely hooked me… and then Jonathan, Thomas, and Caleb simply blew me away as they always dear lord this was exactly what I needed before bed tonight 😭💗💗💗
I will warn you that once you get sucked into Dan Vasc’s channel, it may take over your entire playlist. 😆 Dude can’t make a bad cover!
@@SpaceNinja321 I don't know if there is anything that he can't sing
Dan Vasc cover of Mulan Is so damn good
I only knew Colm and Dan before... I'll check out the others now 😅🤣
Hallelujah is one of the greatest songs ever written, and this is definitely one of the best versions of it.
Omg the 5 beautifuler metal/acapella singers of the internet joining forces to deliver a LITERALLY holy cover... So glad to see Dan Vasc, Colm and Thomas join the Jonhatan/Caleb circle, you guys are just gathering talents all around the glob, making them exist. That's wonderful and humble, cause have to be honest, you both already are Talents at the point you can support other talents. And on their way, those other talents supports you as well. You guys are wonderful, and even more together
Nicely Put, their voices give me goosebumps.
Dan Vasc brings that Heavy Metal power to whatever he touches, somehow making it go well even with a beautiful ballad like this. Huge respect and great job to everyone!
HAIL! To the great Dan Vasc! Everyone did great on this collaboration cover
The chorus at the end is simply angelic. From the buttery smooth and heart melting voice of Colm, to the soul and passion of Dan, to almost a competition of the bassists in Jonathan, to the unexpected beauty in Thomas Sanders' voice, to the well known and yet, still surprising vocal range of Caleb, to the angel's serenading us all to internal peace for just a few minutes of relaxation, before the video ends. Simply beautiful. Great job fellas, keep on rocking it
Am I in heaven?
Are those angels singing?
We are all blessed to hear these angel-like voices yalls.
I came here because of Dan Vasc, have never heard of the other performers.. Every one was wonderful, great harmony done by all. This was beautifully done.
Thomas sanders and Caleb doing a collab together is a dream come true 🥺❤️
I love your profile pic in combination with your username. 10/10
Beautiful cover Caleb & Friends! Can’t wait to hear the Waluigi version!
There already is
I came here because of Dan Vasc and it was worth it. Great collaboration and it was a pleasure. From 0:53 - 1:38 wow. Dan fans know what I'm talking about ♥️🤟
Yes we do, love are Dan
You guys did such a good I'm playing this at my wedding!!
Maybe not a song to play at a wedding lol
“Love is not a victory march, it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah”
“There was a time you let me know what’s really going on below but now you never show it to me, do you”
“The only thing I learned from love was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you”
@@datdude888 This is why I love "the sound of silence" so much, most people these days are just interested in catchy pop songs without caring about the story told or emotions communicated (or lack there of).
Unlike a lot of older people who just want to complain about younger generations in general, I'm not saying that some artists don't try, but that the industry is based on money and therefore consistent success, which is just not how the creative process works for most people.
Sorry I'm ranting.
@@datdude888 agreed! It is not a happy love/wedding song if you listen to the lyrics. It is beautiful though
I've definitely seen this song requested for a wedding ceremony more than once, both the Leonard Cohen and Beyonce versions, and I still don't really understand why. I think people just like the harmony and tune, without listening to the lyrics.
@@SilentPsychopath also the fact it was the wedding theme in Shrek
Everyone is hitting notes I didn't knew existed! Love the avatars, they're super stylish.
First it's these 3 amazing dark, low voices, then there's our Angel, Thomas 🥰 and then this beautiful raspy voice. But when they all came together, man I got chicken skin all over 🤗💕✨️
Every Jonathan Young and Caleb Hyles collaboration is like the expendables movies, they always get every badass online singer in the universe. From Natewantstobattle to PalleK to Dan Vasc to (story time) Thomas Sanders. This is amazing!
This took my breath away!! All of your voices blend so well together!
The harmony at the end was spectacular
Everyone: *sings one at a time*
Me: their voices are so beautiful
Everyone: *sings at once*
Me: *A S C E N D S*
This cover was absolutely gorgeous, and the harmonies at the end left me tearing up a bit. Everyone's voices stood out in their own way but also worked so well together: I'm just awestruck. Beautifully performed!
At the end when everyone gets together was an incredible beautiful sound. Everything that i heard in this song was INCREDIBLY amazing
This is... just absolutely perfect!
The start with the deeper voice was just a perfect build up then the middle with the more softer voices helped the song grow even more
Then when all of you song together... well all I can say is I had goosebumps
An excellent piece of music from you all! Thanks for sharing this!
If you guys ever made a band, call yourselves "The Cover Kings".
I have been an absolute fan of Leonard Cohen's songs and poetry ever since my dad Gifted me Songs from a Room when I was 14 and in hospital 35 years ago.
There must be dozens of covers of "Halleluyah" out there, and I never heard a single one that I felt like listening to a second time. Until today, that is.
Thank you, gentlemen, you brought tears of pure emotion to my my eyes. Great job.😍🙏
Absolutely beautiful. First Wellerman, then the Sisters, then the Gospel, then Dynamite, now this. Think I'm in heaven.
EDIT: Whoa, that's a lot of likes! Thanks. God bless you all.
You missed the Dynamite Collab with Amanda, Christina, OR3O, and Jayney
@@goldencyclone4984 Oops, I missed one.
God isn’t real
HOLY AVENGERS ASSEMBLE...!!! What a crew!
This was absolutely amazing to listen to! Hallelujah indeed~ 💕✨🌈
Why did this make me cry 😭
It's so beautiful
This is a great example of “A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.”
Seriously, this was pretty good. You guys were amazing here. Very nice.
God everyone has such distinct voices it's amazing.
Girls talk at a higher pitch when they're talking to someone they like.
Girls when they talk to me: 0:50.
This is so, so beautiful, but I can't help but miss the two verses from Cohen's original...two of the best ever written, in my opinion.
I'd have killed to hear you guys sing "there's a blaze of light in every word/it doesn't matter which you heard/the holy or the broken Hallelujah". As for hearing "and even though it all went wrong/I'll stand before the lord of song/with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah" from any of you, it would probably have led to my spontaneous combustion.
That's why they had to skip those verses, it's against UA-cam TOS to make viewers spontaneously combust.
PERFECTION! Absolute perfection! Everyone sang beautifully. These crossovers just keep on getting better.
I quite enjoyed it, but I started to get amused when some of the singers pronounced "you" in full instead of rhyming it with the main word. "Ya/yah" applies to nearly every line-ending "you" in this piece, aside from the one that rhymes with "too".
The last three singers definitely made this flub. I didn't notice it in the previous verses but I'm too tired to go double-check just now.
A reminder, I suppose, that the little oddities and quirks don't keep a song from being a great pleasure to listen to. (I'm still amused at Dan Vasc pronouncing "Thompson" with a TH sound in Northwest Passage, which is such a badass rendition with just that little hint of quirk.)
I don't always sing along when listening to songs, since I'm usually drawing, doing housework, etc, while listening, but this one I sing along with every time.
As a fan of all 5, this was a delight. God bless you all.
@Christian Iulian Amen!!
Everyone did an amazing job at not only singing their part, but also showing some of the true emotions meant in the song. I could feel every single emotion from the song in the voices and I am so happy about it. Keep up the good work
This song was in my recommendations yesterday... I listened to it at around 1pm while I was in the city with my boyfriend. An hour later I recieved a call from my mother that she found my older brother dead in the shower. He died at the same time I listened to this song. I'm not religious, but the song gave me the chills. Now I listen to this song on repeat the whole day. My brother would have loved this version of halleluja. I hope you can hear this in the afterlife, Peter.
This may be breaching confidentiality, but did you find out the cause of death?
@@rhodesdrakethenieliii3209 It was a pulmonary embolism, a quick and almost painless death. He was only 34 years old...
@@crazypunkcat4880 So a blood clot broke loose and travelled in his bloodstream, only to block off one of the arteries in his lungs; and the fact he was only 34... Jesus
Lisa Robin Kelly (Laurie Forman from That 70s Show) was only 43 when she died, but I'm glad your older brother Peter didn't die from a "multiple drug intoxication" unlike her; shortness of breath and chest pain do not mix with each other. Pray to Zeus that none of your children disrespect his death
P.S: Just for the record I looked her name up because I thought she was the same age as him, turned out she was older than she looked when the show was on
Hell, BlasphemousHD was surprised when he heard her death on Looper's "14 Actors You May Not Know are Dead"
@CrazyPunkCat I lost someone very close to me recently. A guy I only knew through an MMORPG and my parents who was an uncle to me. He hadn't been online due to undergoing an experimental cancer treatment that went south, so I hadn't gotten the chance to share this song with him. He was an Irishman, however, so I have a strong feeling he would've enjoyed this cover. Stay strong, my friend. Keep honoring your brother.
Rest In Peace Leonard Cohen........ Amazing Tribute.👍👍👍
Thomas Sanders, Caleb Hyles, and Jonathan Young all in one video?? Is this heaven?
I HOPE SO
I've listened to all five of them for years so it's like the stars lined up to deliver a totally unexpected and beautiful trifecta I never knew I needed.
I've listened to this song dozens of times and I've NEVER heard the 4 verse! It actually painted a more full image to the story. That aside, this was AMAZING and everyone was great
First of all the range of this group, second, the chills! Well done gents well done! I hope to hear more from the five of you! Wonderful harmonies!
Oh my god, the harmonies on the last refrain...
Literal shivers. Beautiful.
This is hands down the BEST rendition of this song I have EVER heard. Way to beat out all the other pros guys!! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful, beautiful talents with us.
Their voices carry so well. It's so calming.
The bass, the passion in their voices, the goosebumps 😳 Hallelujah!
I've had this on repeat all day. This song is so healing. ❤️
Can I give the harmnizing a 10/10 for being a show choir kid I think it sounds amazing
ABSOLUTE masterpiece!
Whenever i hear this version, i can just barely hold in the tears, as this song was played at my grandpas funeral back in 2015. It was the 2nd out of 4 songs to be played. The first of the four to make me burst into tears. Whenever i listen to this song (either this version, the original, or the Pentatonix version) i think of my grandpa, and all his good stories i had been told.
RIP grandpa Kurt 1944 - 2015. Hope you still tell your stories to family members in the paradise above!
God bless you, guys! Thanks for putting this up!
I can pretty solidly say this is my new comfort song which means I'll listen to it 20+ times a day for at least a month.
Caleb, Jonathan, Thomas, Colm, AND Dan?! .... Welp, time to cry XD
I read sanders and I was like wait Thomas sanders?
It’s so cool y’all know each other! You two are some of my favorite singers
I saw this on Spotify looking for covers and saw Thomas Sanders and I said surely that's not THE Thomas Sanders. Color me impressed. Everyone did great and I discovered Caleb Hyles. I can't wait to dive into Caleb's discography.
WHAT A HARMONY!!! That was so beautiful it literally brought tears to my eyes! Thank you 5 for giving us this beautiful cover!
This was breathtaking. I have listed to a lot of Dan's music but i have never heard him sing with so much power and feeling ❤ They are magical all together. 0:42
Second is Dan.
Utterly lovely!!

Could you imagine this group collaborating on a group arrangement of Sound of Silence? I know Caleb already covered it and it was amazing, but this group? This group would be shattering.
Oh. Oh, I'm getting chills just thinking about it.
Ohhhhh I could die happy
I think UA-cam would implode at the sheer talent. And it wouldn't be the only thing imploding...
Colm McGuinness will forever be the greatest bass in the world. Ginger gang
idk about that lol, he's amazing though
Dudes hitting notes like he's sucking Sulfer Hexaflouride
It’s weird to hear Jonathon singing so seriously! I almost didn’t recognize him at first. Well done!
I lost my mom a few of weeks ago and this song was one of her favorite to hear it done this masterfully . It has me in tears .
Omg Thomas's voice its just like an angel
Every time I hear this song, I cry, because it reminds me of my mother...
Thank you for making this
I'm sorry to hear that you lost your mother (i know you posted it 7 monthes ago but i just found it)
@@nivgaming1255 thank you
@@Hylianhero0418 i also lost my grandfather when i was 9 and it was his favorite song
@@nivgaming1255 im sorry to hear that he died
One of the few songs
which can be described as an actual masterpiece.
No, no you can't do this to me Caleb,
You can't bring these incredible and talented people singing one of my favorite songs and expect me to *not* to cry
