It's ok. But I downloaded this version with no details except the title and searched for years to find out who sang it it wasn't until I had a friend suggest he use his shazam to get it and this was it
This is my favorite Rufus: simple, understated, but insanely powerful. No one does this song like him. Between the first note and the last, it breaks you and puts you back together again. RIP, Leonard Cohen.
The voice, the emotion, the tenderness that comes out of his version of this masterpiece by Leonard Cohen, performed by Rufus, brings torrents of tears from me every time I listen to it.
No one sings this song like Rufus can. He takes you to the edge of despair & hope & he takes your soul to that lonesome drive down the road of the dammed......thank you, Rufus. ❤
Love this song sung by Rufus! Rufus always sounds so much grander live! One of his greatest live performances is at The Kennedy Honors Billy Joel tribute. What a powerful performance! Incredible voice!
A true tribute to the late and great Mr. Leonard Cohen. Had the courtesy of seeing Mr. Cohen when he was in Australia and Rufus Wainwright. What a privilege it was. Our girl used to rock out to Everybody Knows when she was only four yrs old. Mr. Leonard Cohen accepted her letter to him from the audience ... So awe inspiring. Will remember forever that moment
His Mum was and would have been so proud of him. His version of Across the Universe I prefer too and I am a huge Beatles fan but Rufus does it so very well. Listen to it !
I love how he was talking about how he loved coming down to Atlanta then he just went to the song really quick go Rufus wainwright for his amazing talent and beutiful singing voice keep it up wainwright ur a good man
I have known the wainwright family my whole life.... haven't met Rufus but this is my favorite version. Sloan was my classmate , sister Teddy my babysitter and Loudon didn't know what to do with us but sing! Rufus is his father and mother.... awesome
I truly love this version of this song. It always takes me back to the first time I heard it. My one true love had it playing on his computer. It is imprinted indelibly on my heart and soul forever. I love and lost through my inability to overcome my fears. I listen to this and every moment comes back to me in perfect recall and I wish I could have a chance to start over again from this place in time.
Rufus does this song better than anyone. I learned the piano part by listening over and over. And I still listen to it repeatedly...never get tired of this version.
I saw this version on tv and didnt found who's sing. Till today i saw samsung's advertorial they used across the universe rufus wainwright version. And when i heard that voice i recognise thats hallelujah performance. Finally i found this video about 3 years later and im so happy now :)
My five year old who i was forced to sign away to her dad , after a fire displaced me for 3 months and the other 2 girls .. ..hes horrible i loved him unconditionally and still do and instead of helping me he took away my child and now continues his abuse by making it so hard to see the last children i am able to have ... But for mothers day she wrote about my likes and named THIS SONG as my favorite song wene she described me ..its amazing to me though the time goes by and sometimes hell keep her away for a couple months @ a time ...she KNOWS me and she Knows THIS song tht after 17 yrs of horrific abuse and in the end himTAKING MORE tham i had ever imagined ... This song ... Tied u to a kitchen chair broke ur thrown and cut your hair meant so much to me and still does in my darkest time it did bring me closer to god .. Be able to feel him even sometimes ... THIS IS A VERY SPECIAL SONG .... And this is the best version of them alll with his voice .UN REAL HOW HE PERFORED live ...
They played this song at my brothers funeral about 12 years ago. I am now learning this song on the piano in memory of his death. R.I.P Cooper Bradley Gray Born: November 19, 2009 Death: March 24, 2010 Death: Suffocated 😢
+wonderlandreader This comment is so condescending. You make it seem like "this generation" listens exclusively to whatever plays out of pop radio stations. In reality, there are tons of passionate artists producing quality music today. Past generations may have been blessed with great artists, but this generation sure as hell isn't musically damned. It seems you're just looking in all the wrong places.
Honestly, it looks like he had no care in the world to be there and his dynamics while he was singing barely changed it was like mezzo forte to forte . This could have been especially as an amazing singer I believe he is.

His singing voice is so much different than his talking voice. Beautiful!

You know they can implant hearing aids nowadays right ?
This is my favorite Rufus: simple, understated, but insanely powerful. No one does this song like him. Between the first note and the last, it breaks you and puts you back together again.
RIP, Leonard Cohen.
I cannot agree more. Rufus is amazing and outshines anyone who has sung this song.
Except LC 💔
The voice, the emotion, the tenderness that comes out of his version of this masterpiece by Leonard Cohen, performed by Rufus, brings torrents of tears from me every time I listen to it.
His cover of Across the universe is just incredible,John Lennon would've been so pleased
he still does the best version so far !!!!!!!!!!!!!
hes tied for me with john cale
I agree. I've heard so many versions of this song that should never have been sung.... He is the only I can listen to, including Leonard Cohen.
Best version ever
nah!! the jeff buckley's version is the best!!
I completely agree with you, Miranda! I think Buckley's version is "pretty", but Rufus's is heart wrenching.
+Patricio Muñoz Cotte cant stand that vers. This is where its @
K.D. Lang's version is superior in many ways.
K.D. Lang's version is superior in many ways.
He goes from an absolute kween to a honey-voiced, pitch-perfect legend.
No one sings this song like Rufus can. He takes you to the edge of despair & hope & he takes your soul to that lonesome drive down the road of the dammed......thank you, Rufus. ❤
Gives me shivers. Makes me want to cry, and I'm not prone to tears.
Makes me cry too

Artysta z wielkim talentem I charyzma nie ma ich za duzo gratulacje
Que hermosa cancion de Rufus Wainwright.
beautiful
Made me think about my life and helped me find some inner peace before I did something stupid. Thank You Rufus
What better way to honor Mr Leonard Cohen with the song Alleluia. Many thanks.
Sucks that this generation will never know true talent like this
agreed, music used to have a SOUL to it and now its a repeat.
+wonderlandreader This comment is so condescending. You make it seem like "this generation" listens exclusively to whatever plays out of pop radio stations.

+wonderlandreader Why? Did he die?
literally every generation says that at some point.

beautiful voice
if you like to hear a catfight, its beautiful.
As Metallica says nothing else matters!
Thomas Clemens shut the fuck up
let it go. He's a jr high kid.
I could tell
he's even better live
favorite version
Lovely and moving
Absolutely love this song
But wow change in his voice makes me cry
The best I have ever heard.Truley , truely inspirational.
Possibly the best version ever....my opinion !
His voice is so filling
wow this is on par with his studio version. impressive!
Beautiful.
There is nobody to p erform this better song after origam
I love this song!
It's perfect!!
He did this the day before my bday.
my favorite version
Sorry but this is so much better than the original by Leonard Cohen
no need to apologize
Cohen is kinda like a Canadian Dylan.
except much much better!
I just told someone about this being better than the John Cale version.
Me parece mejor la versión de leonard, sin embargo Rufus lo hace genial.
he is a king
Leonard Cohen wrote it- Rufus Wainwright sang it. Only versions I know and care to know :P. Please don't ask me to choose
You don't know Jeff Buckley?
Oh, yeh, Love his version also :)
@@sammi4982 Check out John Cale's too. He adopted Cohen's version into the version that Buckley and Rufus used.
KD Lang
So touching and emotional
O Rufus Tem Um Voz Muito Linda E Calma 😍😍😍
AMAZING
Best version by far. No contest.
he has a really nice voice.
Momentos bons que se eternizam através de canções como esta. ...
Maravilhoso hallellujah....
This is how you shut up an entire arena and make them hold the one next to them.
Honestly, it looks like he had no care in the world to be there and his dynamics while he was singing barely changed it was like
mezzo forte to forte . This could have been especially as an amazing singer I believe he is.
In love
SUPERBE VOIX merveilleux chanteur et très beau en plus
Amazing!
