My favorite version is by Leonard Cohen, but it's no longer on youtube.

The only one that even comes close is this one:

ah yes, I recently 'discovered' this song, too. I like it.

i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah

The bolded lines have puzzled me for years
Is this perhaps a coded play on stopinder action?

speculating that perhaps it parallels:

This mi-fa interval is what Gurdjieff called the 'Mechano-coinciding-Mdnel-ln' It is at this interval (note: Gurdjieff calls these intervals 'stopinders' in his book Beelzebub) that a retardation of vibrations occurs and a deviation or deflection from the original direction takes place. It is at this point that an external or mechanical shock is needed in order to keep the octave progressing to its completion into the next higher cycle. (See Law Of Seven).

Yes, Jeff's version is incredible! Some time ago I wrote about my experience hearing it for the first time in a thread called Jeff Buckley:"Hallelujah"-waking up my emotional center?

Actually, what I read into it is the natural non-linear dynamics of growth that people experience while being involved with the Creative force.

In a Work context, it's expressed as two steps forward and one step back, OSIT. Anyone willing to suffer through this path would be 'pleasing to the lord'.

But, I really don't know for sure.

I don't know if there is a further hidden meaning, but I thought he was simply describing the 'secret chord' - not very explicitly though.

I just read about your experience Aragorn and I can totally understand it. Didn't the Cs say that some people have the gift of changing other people's lives with their voices (as in singing)?

Though both versions mentioned above of this incredible song are amazing, my
personal favorite is Damien Rice's live version at the 2008 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductions (HE was not being inducted, just performing). I'll posted a link below but unfortunately it's for mobile users (since I'm doing this on my BlackBerry, it automatically creates a mobile link rather than a regular link). If the link doesn't work for you, simply go to YouTube and type in "Damien Rice Hallelujah". It should be the first video to pop up. 4:31 seconds. Enjoy!
