This song always brings back memories of my Italian mother and aunt dancing around the kitchen and singing with Dino.

Two comments if I amy regarding the song Hallelujah by Leonard Coen:

The song languished for ten years (released in 1985), popular primarily with die hard Cohn fans. It took off with this version:

Hallelujah -- Jeff Buckley

IT IS NOT A SONG TO BE PLAYED AT CHRISTMAS

There are alternate lyric versions available for Christmas and Easter

Just out of curiosity...did you know that Kyu Sakamoto died in that major 747 crash in the 80s? Something like 500 people were aboard and they all died.

I don’t think that’s a foreign language! Unless “drunken slurring” is considered such.

Yes, I knew. Another weird fact..
The names of the 3 men involved in the song are numbers.
Kyu (9) sang it.
Roku (6) wrote the lyrics.
Hachi (8) wrote the melody.
