Well then, let's take the Foraminifera. They lived, since they were, and were, since they lived. They did what they could since they were able. In the plural since the plural, although each one on its own, in its own, since in its own small limestone shell. Time summarized them later in layers, since layers, without going into details, since there's pity in the details. And so I have before me two views in one: a mournful cemetery made of tiny eternal rests or, rising from the sea, the azure sea, dazzling white cliffs, cliffs that are here because they are. "Foraminifera" Wisława Szymborska translated from Polish by Clare Cavanagh and Stanislaw Baranczak
I cannot say enough about the two guys who run this show. I was honoured to be part of the Choir! Choir! Choir! recently at the Sanderson Centre in Brantford. It was so much fun and truly demonstrates the love and positivity alive in our world. Never stop singing! (really wish I had taken time to buy the shirt)
I was at my local shopping centre one evening a few years ago and a saxophone busker started playing this. Everyone in the street just randomly started singing. There were people in cafes. The cinema had just come out, they all joined in. Shoppers. People hanging out of their cars. Random people on the footpaths. Everyone just stopped moving and joined in. It was surreal. All their voices ringing beautifully. It was truly amazing. All theses years, it still gives me goosebumps. I don’t think i’ll ever forget that atmosphere.
Every time I listen to this song, it brings me to tears. I was raised that men don’t cry blah blah blah. I remember my dad received a Christmas gift from my mom one time that he was so moved by that he left the room in the middle of opening presents to regain his composure before he came back a few minutes later. I have listened to this song every few months for years now and it has brought me to tears every time.
How can you expect me to remain enraged at the gross stupidity of people when you attack me with the grace and beauty of human voices united in harmony. Damn you for making me cry
Keep crying until all the frustrations are gone and keep pouring your heart out to God and let the healing tears keep flowing down and soothing your soul and keep singing 🎶🎶🎶🙏🙏🙏🎶🎶🎶
5 months later 82 year old Sainted Muse Cohen passed on/away from us, but more than his memory remains a blessing. 21 Sep1934 - 07 Nov2016 (age 82y+1.69months)
Hello Andrew! Have you ever heard about "Koolulam"? At this time, when you have participate in this version of "Halleluya"? I would like to know. Thanks! ;)
I’m here in my house during quarantine and I’m watching my favorite things. I’ve probably watched this video a thousand times and this time I cried harder than ever. Strangers coming together and making something beautiful. EDITED: OMG 1.4K LIKES TY
I think for me anyway I would have been overwhelmed with emotion to be honest. I don't think I could have participated. I would have ended up in tears lol
When you’re out there in this lonely world, nowhere to turn, no one to listen, reached for your last string of hope and believe you’re all alone… remember, God loves you, and so do I. God is everything…I’m just a plus one :)
This is the most wonderful piece of music given to us by a wonderful Jewish Man. The world has changed so much now it is full of evil and sadness. May the Lord give us our happiness and freedom again soon. Life as beautiful but not now. It is heartbreaking
I'm not religious but I love the sound of human voices coming together, it is the most surreal and at the same time grounding thing ever. Simply most beautiful.
If you listen to the words of the song, you will realize its not a very religious song. But if you want to say that when voices coming together is a religious experience, I will not argue that.
@@wanderer6510 I agree the song is not meant to be a religious hymn, people can relate to it differently. But nothing is more beautiful than getting together and singing praise to God, here take a look at this ruclips.net/video/mulxxoAKf20/видео.html
Leonard Cohen may have inadvertently saved Western civilization. He spent 20+ years working off & on on this wondrous hymn. This is the sort of communal devotional outpouring that transforms hearts & gives birth to a true metaphysical reset.
Saint Ofelia The fact you judge me says so much about you (I won't blame you, this is internet). It has nothing to do with 'global' or 'not highly appreciative''. It's all about LOVE. Stay healthy🙏🏼
I wish I could lock the world in a room and have them sing together - music heals the soul, warms the heart, lifts us up to be filled with love. Hallelujah.
Can you just imagine not being on the outside but inside in the middle of this choir. What a moving experience having so many sing together like this. Beautiful!
Beloved, I don't know you in person but God knows you. God ministered to me in a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you,I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding onto them,in prayers,i saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and with a motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford or give to these motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact wherever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on +2348122050178) tell him I sent an you. For it is not by might nor by in power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God in your life. God bless you.....................................................
This song ALWAYS strikes a cord. I am not, and never will be a religious person. With that said this song speaks to my soul, to me as a human being and I absolutely love it!
@@andrewbeecroft6509 if you are agnostic that means you don't have a belief either way whether or not you have a spirit or there is a higher order. If on the other hand you mean you do believe in a higher order but just not one described by human beings and organised religion that makes perfect sense to me

"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything." Plato, ancient Greek philosopher
@@pietromaffi5473 This proves mankind has never changed and there are much more good than bad ones that the media tend to prefer the latter but we know better! "I am not an Athenian nor a Greek, but a citizen of the world." Socrates, from Plutarch, Of Banishment
I will ALWAYS prefer the Jeff Buckley's cover... even if this one is not too bad.... But this song is just "cosmic"...❤️ R.I.P... Leonard Cohen! he was really a great Musician and an awesome person too !
As a musician, and I think all musicians would agree, we hear music differently to people who aren't. We FEEL music, it resonates through every fibre of our very soul. Music, to us, is a direct line to our souls. Let me tell you something, this REALLY resonated within my soul. Absolutely beautiful, I was literally brought to tears as a wave of goosebumps flowed down my neck, through my back and caused my whole body to feel this music. A pure reaction to how this music touched my soul. I never even had to watch the video to feel what the choir were feeling. Absolutely wonderful arrangement, gorgeous execution. Beautiful! You should be very VERY proud.
The devil and big corps has blinded the minds of the unbelievers. Please just reach out to him in sincerity fully knowing he will lift you up. I bet you cried when you heard this ! Pretty much every one cries when they hear this and quite a few don't even know why.It is the power of his name ,HALLELUYAH! So be it.
20 out of 10. Awesome to see these gentlemen who are going to be the future of our beautiful country and unite us all! From a 71 year old, you make my heart swell with pride to live in our beloved country! Hallelujah written by Leonard Cohen! Awesome!
Robin Abraham sorry, this is not really unison. It is so much more interesting because of the different timing and cording against the soloist. I know, picky. But the cording is so gorgeous!
Wow, nitpickers, I believe Robin meant singing the same song together in one place at the same time. Immediately people try to wipe out her positive comment by zeroing in on a single word. I'm guessing you both knew what Robin meant.
Paused at 0:53 im already starting to cry. My mom lost her battle with cancer in 2011 and i played this song for her before she died. She was in an incredible cognitive decline and just smiled. I miss you so much mom. Im all alone now. Hopefully I'll be with you soon.
The best version I ever heard was on a Portland sidewalk a good looking man with a guitar brought a duck out of his backpack... The guy would sing hallelujah and then the duck would wak wak wak wak in rythm after him... True story
That's just how it is. Sometimes there are good decades and then bad ones. Unfortunately, humanity just doesn't learn. I'm not trying to change the world anymore, but to get along in it and make the best of it.
It's OK, I'm not either. It's not really a religious song, though, at least not in the traditional sense. (Listen to the lyrics again!) But this was an extraordinarily moving performance.
I love to end my day by listening to this. It is the best way to end the day. I love to sing along an pretend I'm at the concert., see you tomorrow night
I love to see people come together as one big group of humans. No walls, no division, no secret motives, just being together and sharing a moment as one. Love it!
...and they would have been rehearsing for some time and truly focused on the singing. I sang with a choir for a decade, you rehearse and focus on yourself and the other voices and the conductor. This is the final performance for the camera. Enjoy the beauty of it, don't doubt that beauty XX
I've been playing various instruments for a decade but I'm finally practicing singing, and this song is my favourite to sing to, I work as a janitor and quote insecure usually but this song connects me to the Lord and I'm not ashamed to sing it anywhere any time
Not only is that one of the prettiest songs I have ever heard, but those are some of the prettiest people I have ever seen. What a wonderful song to keep on loop as I work during this Christmas season. LOVE.
Halleluyah the power of calling on him is unmatchable.Forget Christmas ,keep your money ,do not give any more to the big corps. Sing this song in your heart and he will hear you and lift you up.
Humans coming together (with their voices in this case) has to be the most beautiful thing. Just shows how beautiful humanity can be if we just work together
This might be from 2016 but we need this right now in 2020. No virus can ever break the human spirit. Stay strong everyone and remember this too shall pass. Praying you are safe and well everywhere. God bless!!
i wish my late husband, Glennoch was here to hear this... he was an amazing muscian & singer (perfect pitch, could sing from bass to high falsetto) but *always* encourged everyone to sing regardless of their ability (especially me lol). he believed raising your voice in song was an act of magic & faith.
I’m alone in my senior residence and to have discovered this presentation is mind boggling. The everlasting gift that Leonard Cohen is astonishing. His legacy lives on all over the world. Thank you Jesus Christ Our Messiah and thank you Leonard Cohen for loving us so enduringly. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Marriette Helling AMEN! Just for your information is regarding samaritians purse. This organization is backed by Franklin Graham. If you research the Grahams they were child sex pedophiles. Check out voodoo doughnuts in Portland Oregon where Franklin and family visited. This shop is a source for sex trafficking. I had no idea that our nation was and is so evil. We will all be held accountable.
PLEASE READ...I’m 14 and I got rejected over the summer. And being home all the time and not spending time with friends might have gotten me a kinda depressed. This song has lifted my spirits and hopes of what I can achieve in high school. If you can give me any words of encouragement, that would be greatly appreciated. thanks and never change who you are!
Vincent Jones remember you’re just 14. You gotta whole life ahead of you and a solid 10 years before you should be finding the right girl. Spend time with people you enjoy being around
Be strong ! Heads up! NEVER give up Vincent ! Remember... you are a child of the Universe, like me,77 years old and standing firm up to end ! Don't give up !!!!
Getting rejected hurts. And I think it hurts even more when you’re young. You will survive this, and someday you’ll hardly remember it. The best years of your life are ahead of you. Make the most of them and remember that you get out of life what you put into it. All the best to you!!
You got hit with a HALLELUYAH . That is the power of his name ,just call on him and he will lift you up . I know ,I know .This song is a healing song . Halleluyah, so be it . I am sending you love from Quebec .Canada.
This is probably one of the coolest things I have seen on RUclips in a while. Something like this reminds me of the strength of the human spirit. Music is such an amazing gift we have to share with each other.
This is the way we all would like to see the world again without having to wear masks and six feet away from each other the world needs to come together again so we all can embrace life once more
HOLY MACROLE !!! First 500 high school students singing the National Anthem in a hotel, then a high school choir singing Hallelujah on a plane and now this. 😮🤯😃
The only true name of the Savior of the world is YAHSHUA! “Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart. But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. For we do not preach ourselves, but the Christ YAHSHUA the Lord...” (2 Corinthians 4:1-5). Halleluyah means, “Praise YAH!” Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For Yah, the Lord, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation’” (Isaiah 12:2 NKJV). YAH, which means ‘I AM’, in Hebrew, and this is the name which is above every name revealed to Moses (Exodus 3:13-15). Christ acknowledged that His name is YAH, as in “YAH Saves,” which is the revealed name YAHSHUA (see Matthew 1:21, for He will save His people), because He has the name which is above every name. For He said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM {YAH}” (John 8:58). Jesus, Iesus, Iesous, Yeshua, Isa, Hey-zeus, are counterfeit names for they lack “YAH.” “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). The Heavenly Father revealed the Savior’s name: “YAHSHUA.” [YAH = I AM, Shua = Salvation, thus YAHSHUA.] The apostle Paul, on the road to Damascus, encountered the Savior, who introduced His name to him in Hebrew as “YAHSHUA” (Acts 26:12-16). The apostle Paul heard in Hebrew Christ revealed His name as YAHSHUA, and Paul hearing YAH actually wrote the one name, “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of YAHSHUA every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that YAHSHUA the Christ is LORD, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:9-11). Halleluyah, Praise YAH, Praise YAHSHUA! YAHSHUA is the only name of salvation, and the gospel warns us not to reject His name: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). The Savior’s name is YAHSHUA, and because there is no other name, any other names are counterfeits [not including titles, such as El Shaddai, or Emmanuel], and these counterfeit names are because: “Satan, deceives the whole world” (Rev. 12:9). “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14). “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12). Believe in the revealed name YAHSHUA and forsake all other names.
The energy of all those people in that room is healing, uplifting, and comforting just by watching and listening to them. Thank you all so much and thanks for the video.

I love this quote. Found it some years ago and posted it to friends.

You don't know how much that just cheered me up. Thank you, and thank you to Leonard Cohen... may he Rest In Peace.
Well then, let's take the Foraminifera.
They lived, since they were, and were, since they lived.
They did what they could since they were able.
In the plural since the plural,
although each one on its own,
in its own, since in its own
small limestone shell.
Time summarized them later
in layers, since layers,
without going into details,
since there's pity in the details.
And so I have before me
two views in one:
a mournful cemetery made
of tiny eternal rests
or,
rising from the sea,
the azure sea, dazzling white cliffs,
cliffs that are here because they are.

Hello to all who get this beautiful example of the good in humankind in their reccomend throughout the years to come 👋👋
I was at my local shopping centre one evening a few years ago and a saxophone busker started playing this. Everyone in the street just randomly started singing. There were people in cafes. The cinema had just come out, they all joined in. Shoppers. People hanging out of their cars. Random people on the footpaths. Everyone just stopped moving and joined in. It was surreal. All their voices ringing beautifully. It was truly amazing. All theses years, it still gives me goosebumps. I don’t think i’ll ever forget that atmosphere.
Music is one of God's finest gifts to humanity. This is just another reason why!

Never quench the Spirit. It's like holding a bird in your hands, if you let go it's hard to get back.
That must have been awesome! I'd love to experience that irl.

It is said to sing in a group, or even with one other.. is to communicate at the deepest level...as we hear each other's souls in the experience
Along with a church organ, not religious but 2 astonishing forms of music
Neither was Cohen :D
Send this to all the politicians in america and ask them to comment on this with an emotional response.......God Bles us all"
Leonard Cohen may have inadvertently saved Western civilization. He spent 20+ years working off & on on this wondrous hymn. This is the sort of communal devotional outpouring that transforms hearts & gives birth to a true metaphysical reset.
The choir is glorious, but I really like Rufus Wainwright's singing. He's so relaxed, but never becomes unmusical.
I can't carry a tune in a bucket but I would have loved being in that room that night.
@Lance Hargitt...Same here..but wouldnt it have been awesome to be there?
.....make a joyful noise! Very cool.
Me too, one day soon we all will sing as one...
Just gotta listen to the music man. Hear it in your soul.
Me too!! But Rufus didn't look very cheerful, inspite of his great interpretation 🤔🙄
This really moved me... Its shows how strong people can be when they're connecting. Take care everybody and stay healthy. One love.
It is the power of the Creators name .Halleluyah. so be it.
@Corie Johnson So true. I also cry when I hear a 'real soul singer'. It's coming in like thunder and light(ning).
Saint Ofelia The fact you judge me says so much about you (I won't blame you, this is internet).
It has nothing to do with 'global' or 'not highly appreciative''. It's all about LOVE. Stay healthy🙏🏼
It is the power of the Holy Spirit which abides in everyone who Love's our Lord Jesus Christ, who leads us to the Father (GOD).
옳소.
Jesus stopped for a minute and looked at god his father and said looking down on earth look what we created there might be hope for them yet
This is why I love Canadians! They are real and do the coolest shit!!

"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything." Plato, ancient Greek philosopher
What a beautiful philosophy.
I'm going to share this and cite your sentence! Thanks!
@@pietromaffi5473 This proves mankind has never changed and there are much more good than bad ones that the media tend to prefer the latter but we know better! "I am not an Athenian nor a Greek, but a citizen of the world." Socrates, from Plutarch, Of Banishment
but moral law is Bullshit
We 1960's kids thought "Suzanne" would be the song Leonard Cohen would be remembered for. Then he wrote "Hallelujah."
Imagine if we had one billion 500 million singers feeling and bringing this beautiful energy to earth today.we can make it happen.
OHDEARGAWD!!!! You are right...💝
I am at a loss for the perfect words to say how I g
feell..........
Who's watching in 2019?
I had goosebumps all the way.
13 October 2019. I will be posting it to my Facebook friends once its finished.
I will ALWAYS prefer the Jeff Buckley's cover...
even if this one is not too bad....
But this song is just "cosmic"...❤️
R.I.P... Leonard Cohen!
he was really a great Musician and an awesome person too !
I am
10.23.2019.....goosebumps.
Today
As a musician, and I think all musicians would agree, we hear music differently to people who aren't. We FEEL music, it resonates through every fibre of our very soul. Music, to us, is a direct line to our souls. Let me tell you something, this REALLY resonated within my soul. Absolutely beautiful, I was literally brought to tears as a wave of goosebumps flowed down my neck, through my back and caused my whole body to feel this music. A pure reaction to how this music touched my soul. I never even had to watch the video to feel what the choir were feeling. Absolutely wonderful arrangement, gorgeous execution. Beautiful! You should be very VERY proud.
Why have problems in the world when we can sing songs like this together
The devil and big corps has blinded the minds of the unbelievers. Please just reach out to him in sincerity fully knowing he will lift you up. I bet you cried when you heard this ! Pretty much every one cries when they hear this and quite a few don't even know why.It is the power of his name ,HALLELUYAH! So be it.
20 out of 10. Awesome to see these gentlemen who are going to be the future of our beautiful country and unite us all! From a 71 year old, you make my heart swell with pride to live in our beloved country! Hallelujah written by Leonard Cohen! Awesome!
Just a guitar and 1500 people singing in unison.. I can't stop listening to this song
Robin Abraham sorry, this is not really unison. It is so much more interesting because of the different timing and cording against the soloist. I know, picky. But the cording is so gorgeous!
Definitely not unison!
Wow, nitpickers, I believe Robin meant singing the same song together in one place at the same time. Immediately people try to wipe out her positive comment by zeroing in on a single word. I'm guessing you both knew what Robin meant.
I can't stop listening to it myself everyone who sings it I tap on to it it just very beautifully done
San D she said something well, so the nit pickers have to tear it down. Not happy unless the do that.
Paused at 0:53 im already starting to cry. My mom lost her battle with cancer in 2011 and i played this song for her before she died. She was in an incredible cognitive decline and just smiled. I miss you so much mom. Im all alone now. Hopefully I'll be with you soon.
You are not alone. We love you ❤
Bless you. May this bring you some comfort. ❤️🙏🏻
God bless you during this loss
🙏♥️ I played this song everyday for the last year of my mom’s life fighting cancer ! Especially by K D LANG.. ♥️♥️
@@anitanapp6759 im so sorry for your loss. My mom lost her battle in 2011 and i still catch myself wanting to call her to check on her.
The best version I ever heard was on a Portland sidewalk a good looking man with a guitar brought a duck out of his backpack... The guy would sing hallelujah and then the duck would wak wak wak wak in rythm after him... True story
If only we all in this world could sing in harmony togeather against fear of 2020 2021 well u know 2yrs stay strong beautiful ppl Fight
The world was in a much better place when this was filmed.😢😢😢
That's just how it is. Sometimes there are good decades and then bad ones. Unfortunately, humanity just doesn't learn. I'm not trying to change the world anymore, but to get along in it and make the best of it.
No it wasnt
Simply stunning. Tears streaming my face.
Me too & in no way am i a religious person ... this was so emotional ..
Me too!
It's OK, I'm not either. It's not really a religious song, though, at least not in the traditional sense. (Listen to the lyrics again!) But this was an extraordinarily moving performance.
This is not even a religious song, believe it or not.

I love to end my day by listening to this. It is the best way to end the day. I love to sing along an pretend I'm at the concert., see you tomorrow night
We need this today. Pray for peace and changes of heart before it's too late!!!!!!
I love to see people come together as one big group of humans. No walls, no division, no secret motives, just being together and sharing a moment as one. Love it!
Hi Tina, how's your day going with you?
It's so beautiful. Just look at their faces - it's as if they're experiencing some kind of catharsis thanks to the music. It's pure beauty of music!
Beautifully said...
I feel like too many people would be crying for this to be accurate.
Indeed... goosebumps and tears ... amazing!
That was my thought exactly. I kept looking for tear-jerkers.
It was filmed in June 2016 so there was no need for tears then.
yes, really sad.
...and they would have been rehearsing for some time and truly focused on the singing. I sang with a choir for a decade, you rehearse and focus on yourself and the other voices and the conductor. This is the final performance for the camera. Enjoy the beauty of it, don't doubt that beauty XX
never gets old.....Leonard Cohen...Canada's gift to the world, your welcome. Stay strong and stay safe
I've been playing various instruments for a decade but I'm finally practicing singing, and this song is my favourite to sing to, I work as a janitor and quote insecure usually but this song connects me to the Lord and I'm not ashamed to sing it anywhere any time
Parabéns amigo.
👍👍👏🏼👏🏼🇧🇷🇧🇷
Too bad we can only "like" this once!!!!
you can have my "like!" i know what you mean!
call Hillary; she'll show you how to like it more than just once.
even if you're dead.
This here will still last when all politics are just a pity of the past.
what the fuck does hrc have to do with this
384 dislike are ISLAM......
I’m hoping we gather often and sing like this … from our hearts … so beautiful… may God get all the glory 🙏🙏🙏 I’m so grateful for music 🎶🎶🎶
One of the best songs ever written. 😃🥰
RIP Leonard Cohen thank you for the memories

Not only is that one of the prettiest songs I have ever heard, but those are some of the prettiest people I have ever seen. What a wonderful song to keep on loop as I work during this Christmas season. LOVE.
Halleluyah the power of calling on him is unmatchable.Forget Christmas ,keep your money ,do not give any more to the big corps. Sing this song in your heart and he will hear you and lift you up.
the power of music....can get everyone together and sing in one!..Nice can be the one there
The BEST SONG EVER WRITTEN.
He will be missed, but he left us his music forever.

Humans coming together (with their voices in this case) has to be the most beautiful thing. Just shows how beautiful humanity can be if we just work together
This might be from 2016 but we need this right now in 2020. No virus can ever break the human spirit. Stay strong everyone and remember this too shall pass. Praying you are safe and well everywhere. God bless!!
Any time ANYONE can get 1500 people to come together in song, my socks are knocked off. Crazy beautiful
Amen sista! Getting choral singers together can have a "herding cats" feel to it....well done to them!
Hi Carol, how's your day going with you?
i wish my late husband, Glennoch was here to hear this... he was an amazing muscian & singer (perfect pitch, could sing from bass to high falsetto) but *always* encourged everyone to sing regardless of their ability (especially me lol). he believed raising your voice in song was an act of magic & faith.
I think one day we will all be singing together when we see what brings peace to are hearts to the one that made us all.
It is the almighty's powerful name that stirs us.
❤️
It will be wonderful in heaven, when trillions of people praising God together with the angels!
We’re all broken doing the best we can. Hallelujah Bless the ones who recognize this. The ones who do not are the problem. Hallelujah!
I’m alone in my senior residence and to have discovered this presentation is mind boggling. The everlasting gift that Leonard Cohen is astonishing. His legacy lives on all over the world. Thank you Jesus Christ Our Messiah and thank you Leonard Cohen for loving us so enduringly. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Hi Tanya. ✨💖✨😘. Nice to connect.
Thank you for your beautiful message. You are not alone as God is with you. Hang in there and lets pray for each other to get through this safely💙💜🙏💜💙
Marriette Helling AMEN! Just for your information is regarding samaritians purse. This organization is backed by Franklin Graham. If you research the Grahams they were child sex pedophiles. Check out voodoo doughnuts in Portland Oregon where Franklin and family visited. This shop is a source for sex trafficking. I had no idea that our nation was and is so evil. We will all be held accountable.
Aren't you forgetting to thank someone else? HALLELUYAH! Through Yashua ,so be it.
Amen.
PLEASE READ...I’m 14 and I got rejected over the summer. And being home all the time and not spending time with friends might have gotten me a kinda depressed. This song has lifted my spirits and hopes of what I can achieve in high school. If you can give me any words of encouragement, that would be greatly appreciated. thanks and never change who you are!
Vincent Jones remember you’re just 14. You gotta whole life ahead of you and a solid 10 years before you should be finding the right girl. Spend time with people you enjoy being around
Thank you for the advice I appreciate it
Be strong ! Heads up! NEVER give up Vincent ! Remember... you are a child of the Universe, like me,77 years old and standing firm up to end ! Don't give up !!!!
💓💓💓
Getting rejected hurts. And I think it hurts even more when you’re young. You will survive this, and someday you’ll hardly remember it.
The best years of your life are ahead of you. Make the most of them and remember that you get out of life what you put into it.
All the best to you!!
素晴らしい音楽をありがとう
この歌からもっと世界が平和になりますように
Thank you and I pray for a peaceful world

Halleluyah from Quebec ,Canada brother. So be it.
Tuhan memberkati
Oh.........thank you!
This is probably one of the coolest things I have seen on RUclips in a while. Something like this reminds me of the strength of the human spirit. Music is such an amazing gift we have to share with each other.
Replying to remind you to listen to this gem again
The lyrics are so bitter!
more humans need to do this sort of thing. the world would heal.
I was thinking this very thing. Thank you for expressing it so beautifully!
Yes i totally agree and keep us from the evils of life
This is the way we all would like to see the world again without having to wear masks and six feet away from each other the world needs to come together again so we all can embrace life once more
HOLY MACROLE !!! First 500 high school students singing the National Anthem in a hotel, then a high school choir singing Hallelujah on a plane and now this. 😮🤯😃
Only a song written by Leonard Cohen could get that many cheers and intensity.
Another use for many empty building in towns across America…..what joy this would bring to everyone who hears and experiences such beauty.
Just shows how people can unite together when there is positive energy and love!
Looking at the comments and seeing the "Listening during Quarantine" from a year ago is insane. Hits different.
We are all capable of incredible beauty. ❤️
When a crowd / choir sings it, there’s no frills, ornamentation- no pride
Humility is what this piece deserves - beautifully done
This is like a warm blanket after the cold hard day. 1500+ voices come together as one. So beautiful.
The only true name of the Savior of the world is YAHSHUA! “Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart. But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. For we do not preach ourselves, but the Christ YAHSHUA the Lord...” (2 Corinthians 4:1-5).
Halleluyah means, “Praise YAH!”
Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid;
‘For Yah, the Lord, is my strength and song;
He also has become my salvation’” (Isaiah 12:2 NKJV).
YAH, which means ‘I AM’, in Hebrew, and this is the name which is above every name revealed to Moses (Exodus 3:13-15).
Christ acknowledged that His name is YAH, as in “YAH Saves,” which is the revealed name YAHSHUA (see Matthew 1:21, for He will save His people), because He has the name which is above every name. For He said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM {YAH}” (John 8:58). Jesus, Iesus, Iesous, Yeshua, Isa, Hey-zeus, are counterfeit names for they lack “YAH.”
“Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). The Heavenly Father revealed the Savior’s name: “YAHSHUA.” [YAH = I AM, Shua = Salvation, thus YAHSHUA.]
The apostle Paul, on the road to Damascus, encountered the Savior, who introduced His name to him in Hebrew as “YAHSHUA” (Acts 26:12-16).
The apostle Paul heard in Hebrew Christ revealed His name as YAHSHUA, and Paul hearing YAH actually wrote the one name, “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of YAHSHUA every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that YAHSHUA the Christ is LORD, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:9-11).
Halleluyah, Praise YAH, Praise YAHSHUA! YAHSHUA is the only name of salvation, and the gospel warns us not to reject His name: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). The Savior’s name is YAHSHUA, and because there is no other name, any other names are counterfeits [not including titles, such as El Shaddai, or Emmanuel], and these counterfeit names are because: “Satan, deceives the whole world” (Rev. 12:9). “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14). “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12). Believe in the revealed name YAHSHUA and forsake all other names.

"Matthew 1:23" is no deception, "GOD is with us". 1611 kjv = "Exodus 32." True CHRIST-ians are "Marian" (Isaiah 7:14)....IMMANUEL
Music is really the only thing we have left that bond's us together. ❤
The energy of all those people in that room is healing, uplifting, and comforting just by watching and listening to them. Thank you all so much and thanks for the video.
I will be viewing this repeatedly for many many many days.
What an ideal setting, an old generating station for a Broken Hallelujah! Grateful thanks from Auckland, New Zealand.
That song is my fav,,,,,,,,listen every night.
This is the best version I've ever heard because everyone there felt the emotion of this anthem. I'm in tears...but in a good way
