The song playing in the background is one of the most played in history, with over 300 cover versions. This is Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”, an beautiful song that talks about romantic and tragic tales from the Bible, such as King David and Bathsheba, and Delilah’s betrayal of Samson.
According to Leonard, “There are many kinds of Hallelujahs,” and this song, like the prayer word itself, can be performed in many ways. In all honesty, Cohen’s version is my personal favorite, so I’m sharing it with you - I hope you’ll enjoy it too.
