The're all singing the wrong "Hallelujah," a depressing and melancholy downer. They should have sung this one, an inspirational and uplifting tune by Vincent Youmans and Clifford Grey, veteran song writers for Broadway and Hollytwood.

The[y]'re all singing the wrong "Hallelujah, . . . "
I'll take any autistic child singing as a joyful experience, thank you. I praise the Lord that he sang and obviously enjoyed himself.

Yes. Quite separate from the talent and wonder of the boy singing, which I admire, I agree about the song itself.
I am a semi-professional chorister. I have sung many sacred songs; I would never want to sing that Leonard Cohen piece.
