Hallelujah by k.d. lang, Music Lyrics and Video

k.d. lang recorded a version of "Hallelujah" in 2004 on her album Hymns of the 49th Parallel. She has several times been chosen to sing the song at major events, such as at the Canadian Juno Awards of 2005, where her rendition "brought the audience to its feet for a two-minute ovation."

Of that rendition, Cohen's partner, singer Anjani Thomas, said: "After hearing k.d. lang perform that song at the Canadian Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 2006 we looked at each other and said, 'well, I think we can lay that song to rest now! It's really been done to its ultimate blissful state of perfection'."
Lang also performed the song on 12 February 2010, as part of the 2010 Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Vancouver, British Columbia. It has so far peaked at number 2 on the Canadian Hot 100, debuted at 61 on the Hot 100 and peaked at number 19 in Australia. It also peaked at #61 on Billboard Hot 100 chart.
