Leonard Cohen

The song of the day is Hallelujah from the 1984 album Various Positions by Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, painter, poet, and novelist Leonard Cohen. Cohen struggled with Hallelujah, writing as many as 80 versions before releasing the song. Hallelujah has been performed by almost 200 artists in various languages. Probably the best known cover is by Jeff Buckley; his version can be played here.
