Leonard Cohens song Hallelujah, sung by these two amazing voiced sisters. Different words for Easter, just listen to them.

Iโ€™m right there with you Jean. Love him and his music. Was so sad he was cheated out of most of his money late in life. Play his music a lot. x

P.s just listened to this version and it was lovely. Thank you Jean. Noticed in the credits at the end the pianist was Jeff Buckley. I love his cover of Hallelujah too.

Happy Easter to you Jean ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ’x

Yes, I don't think a week goes by without me playing his songs. They were written from the heart by a man who understood emotions and the secret thoughts they created.

He had a very shy smile, which I loved. Such a humble man, but very much a ladies one. I heard that even when Marianne went to visit him he was still carrying on with other women while she was there. Mind you he was extremely handsome in his young days. I still loved him when he was old.

oh me too. Just been playing him over earpods as I do my Easter clean. Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s taking me longer as I keep stopping for a little dance. Well, it keeps me fitโ€ฆish. x

I was a huge Cohen fan in my teens. This one isn't my favourite but like all his songs there's loads of deep meaning. Happy Easter to you too Jeanie - and hope you're having the fabulous weather that we have here. First mowing yesterday!

I don't usually like people singing others songs, but I think these two girls are exceptional and the different words are so special at this time of year. Yes, it really brings the crucifixion to mind doesn't it and so hauntingly sad.

It does. Amidst all the commercialisation and marketing of Easter sometimes the message is lost. I had better shut up now!

beautiful tribute to Christ, our Lord and Savior. Happy Easter-the most important day in history of man, when Jesus took our sins and placed them on to him, for all that accepted him as the son of God. May you have a wonderful celebration of Christโ€™s resurrection, and eternal life with him in Heaven. I pray for everyone to accept Lord Jesus as our savior, and to live a Christian life, filled with purpose and love.

I'm a big fan of Leonard Cohen. I'm so pleased that I got to see him in concert, which brought back many memories of my youth. ๐Ÿ˜€

Oh you've seen him. I'm envious. How old was he then?

Cally53 profile image
Cally53โ€ข in reply tojeanjeannie50

I saw him in Birmingham in 2013, I suppose he was around 79. He was mesmerising to watch and listen to. One of the highlights of my life I think.

My friend and I l had an amazing time. Yes, we were lucky. We would have loved to have seen him again, and were very sad when he passed away a few years later. ๐Ÿ˜ช
