Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley (Piano cover by Jake Coco)

[@fdnfilms]

Hands down my favorite of song of all time. I have been playing and singing this song since I was 7 years old. It is classic that will stand the length of time. I have over 15 covers of this song on my phone from various artists and their interpretations never cease to amaze me. So all I can say is Thank you Jake Coco.

[@jakecoco]

Finn Leahy That's awesome! Glad I could provide you with another version :) Thanks for listening!

[@trevorlumberjack3665]

Even after all these years, when I feel like giving up I go back to my old playlists and com across Jake music and I puts me in a great mood, much love Jake coco.

[@vainativeroots]

wow...gave me chills! play and replay all over again! hallelujah!

[@sarekshikahr4894]

Leonard Cohen is one of my most beloved artists. "Famous Blue Raincoat" and "Hallelujah" are two songs tattooed on my life. I once heard a cover of "Hallelujah" sung by Damien Rice, and I loved that cover. I don't need to explain it. There're so many young people trying to show off technique, figures, shouting songs that must be whispered, hooked on the tempos without navigating the bars. I thought for years that only Cohen and Rice could break me down, and then you came along with this version. Your voice is spectacular, you don't intend to embellish a song that is sung with the soul, more than with technique. Your piano is simple, enough, but at the height for the melancholy that the song demands. Congratulations from the deepest of my soul, dude. Never stop singing, because art is the closest thing to being immortal. Oh, and those dissonant at the beginning, absolutely insane.

LYRICS Well I've heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do you? Well it goes like this: The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya She tied you to her kitchen chair And she broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah But baby I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya And I've seen your flag on the marble arch And love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Well there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me do ya But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Maybe there's a God above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

[@collinsfamily5469]

It is always nice when someone can sign and play an instrument simultaneously. And sound good doing it. Keep up the good work.

[@kathygarrett1456]

Out of 60 that I listened to this is the best I've ever heard.. Thank you Jake Coco!

[@Complex_Audio]

Absolutely beautiful cover! There's nothing more moving than just a piano and a voice. This song means a lot to me and this might just be the best version I have ever heard. Magnificent! Great job Mr.Coco!

[@spencerriley5809]

This is my favorite song. Thanks for making it better

[@angeladirisio369]

I have never heard this song sound so beautiful to be just you and the piano.

[@jacquelinesherwood4151]

My unborn son doesn't react to music. This came on and he reacted immediately. So I turn this on when I want him to move for my family to feel. He knows his Heavenly Father ❤️ absolutely amazes me

[@robjellisonVO]

Curious...do you still play this to your son?

[@deebraaslyn8923]

Piano is my favorite instrument. This version, with Jake's voice, brought me to tears. Wow.

[@meleggleston4246]

The very best I have heard of this song. Dude you have talents a many. I would say good luck for your future but I think you are well on your way.

[@jakecoco]

Mel Eggleston thanks so much Mel :)

+Jake Coco Spokojnie i cieplo z calego serca zaspiewane ZAGRANE PERFEKT

[@sarahcrawford9563]

Your voice is so pure. Totally mesmerizing.

[@blackham7]

I cry myself to sleep to this cover, I indeed have a heart and it is melting D:

[@MohammedAljubury]

Every single night XD

[@serenamclellan9230]

I've listened to lots of your covers and even some of your original songs and I've loved quite a bit of them. Good job.

[@Emiel666Emiel]

One of the best covers i have heard. just wow. R.I.P Leonard Cohen

[@musicbymads]

You have so much emotional intensity...it's so captivating. You have such a unique voice that soft spoken yet powerful and utterly amazing.

[@TurloughKabumpo]

I was looking for a sweet and tender version of one of my absolute favourites and I think I no doubt found what I was looking for, great job Jake!

[@mikerose2217]

I just cant stop watching this cover.Its the most beautiful cover i have ever seen.

[@hollowcliche9500]

4:19 really shows his mastery of the vocal technique.

[@drewmckeon7504]

my older brother has his own interpretation that i love listening to and this is almost exactly it. thank you for making this

[@artisticdevelopment7181]

Jake Coco, if there was one person I would be able to sing like, it'd be you. You caught me with your "Wonderwall" cover and ever since I've been hooked. If ya ever want someone to play the crap out of the piano for you while you sing, lemme know!

[@jakecoco]

Silas Green Thanks, Silas! I'll keep you in mind!

[@navelar3386]

This cover and Jeff Gutt's are the greatest thing my ears have heard, beautiful song and voice

[@navelar3386]

Yes I'm still watching this in 2016

[@daringustafson1726]

Mr. Jake Coco,! I'm a complete fan. You're an amazing artist. The ability to drawn someone in emotionally and then rip them apart, can't be taught. Well done, I look forward to more. Best of luck.

[@jakecoco]

Darin Gustafson Thanks so much! I hope it wasn't too much of an emotional roller coaster for you :)

[@carlosgillopez8167]

i've seen so many covers of this song but you really made me feel it ,thanks for that

[@Man_sab]

Estoy en contra de hacer covers cuando puedes crear algo PERO este señor dios mio creo algo nuevo con algo existente. Felicidades. Muchos quisiéramos un poco de su talento.

[@shadowbear8907]

Absolutely love this! Your voice is so gentle, yet strong. :)

[@divyadarshanjain5820]

Finally a beautiful song has a beautiful cover.

[@tannerroland9052]

I love this song so much, it is by its lonesome in my "best songs ever" Playlist because nothing even comes close.

[@Sasha73403]

Piano amazed me, then your voice shined through, I cried. Best interpretation ever. I'm quite in love right now. Best wishes for future music.

[@emilieb6327]

[@SaumilSanghavi]

Just so blissful! Hearing it over and over again!

[@Keepyoursoulrecords]

[@brittneyb.3637]

You cover some of my most favorite songs. I am a sucker for piano. You take already beautiful songs and make them even more beautiful. You had so much emotion and feeling to the covers you do.

[@jakecoco]

Brittney Boeckler thanks so much, Brittney! :) The piano is one of my favorite instruments too!

[@ashleydavis6772]

You say you play by ear? I do too! I find it much easier than reading notes, you can make it your own :)

[@hosseinowj9001]

This is when the magic of piano combines with a beautiful voice and passion for music, I like your works Jake ..

[@littledreamer5]

La chanson qui fait bien déprimer...

[@nataliafurtado7413]

Musica linda

[@jakecoco]

Oui :)

[@aprilsmith6428]

This is the most beautiful cover I have ever heard of this song. If you could make a tutorial, a very simple one, if you haven't already, that'd be fantastic. My father and mother love this song, and they don't know that I play piano, and I'd like to surprise them for Christmas! Thank you!!!

[@mattone_merlo]

Great cover, but please never forget to credit Mr.Leonard Cohen as the composer, which is not Jeff Buckley.

[@Shadow-qn2hk]

It got copy righted by leonard.

[@jonorton4583]

If you want to get really technical, this is a take on Buckleys version of John Cales cover of Cohens masterpiece.

[@josecamacho6591]

Really love how my mans got real technical real quick. Either way this interpretation was great.

[@jamesclark1537]

made me shiver with those highs

[@luis39205]

I think the mic picks up too much or the sounds been enhanced, it need to sound a bit more raw and just plain and simple? If you get me. Your voice is obviously amazing but I think for a song like this, it needs to be stripped back and less enhancements?

[@Xtant-audio]

Too much auto-tune for my liking but nice piano playing

[@dhakagod]

Xtant Audio this is auto tuned? :O

[@Xtant-audio]

If it isn't then there's something wrong with the recording. Everything's auto-tuned these days so it's very hard for a lot of folk to know the difference.

[@edwardpatino608]

Xtant Audio I'm almost sure no auto-tune here. I heard this man sing live. He just has a REALLY good voice and vocal range

[@jackpilkington7929]

Edward Patino I do sound technology and i can tell you that there is definetly pitch correcting technology on this, i'm sure he can sing live but this has way to much pitch correct on.

[@EarToTheGroundMusic]

Xtant Audio I'm pretty sure he has perfect pitch. That means he doesn't need autotune. There is obviously some reverb either in the recording or just in the space, but that's not autotune. Not by a long shot.

[@MarceloFerreira-hj8xf]

It is the better piano arrangment that I listen. Congratulations Jack. You have an admiration here in Brazil.

[@lyricrhyme7412]

Anybody remember this playing in Shrek?

[@marcosquinones8068]

Lyric Rhyme main reason I'm here

[@OperationWriteHome]

Brilliant as always Jake...that last piano note....perfection.

[@janko85pl]

Sry it's not real (electronic work/ autotune)

[@jakecoco]

:)

[@3many15]

I knew he was a robot all along

[@congratz9396]

What matters is that it sounds amazing (thats music right?)

[@livewhilewereyoung9155]

You're high notes at the end, are so WOW.

[@biggamer4828]

wow. I am speechless. I have goosebumps all over since the first note. I will be purchasing his songs on iTunes and looking out for his cds.

[@Cupidame]

That was more than stunning. Gave me chills.

[@paulthompson4473]

WOW hairs on the back of my arms standing on ends, fantastic version best I have heard

[@Katsuracek]

just close your eyes and enjoy that emotion, so perfect

[@jessicaadamsw7608]

[@jakecoco]

Michelle Boucher haha you did miss out on a few bad haircuts, but I'm glad you're here now! :) thank you!!

[@francescorecchia9438]

You have made this song much more beautiful than was before you're amazing

Francesco Recchia :) thanks Francesco!

[@Joshhebertmusic]

Wow. Shivers, shivers, shivers. The way the chorus builds up strikes my body physically. THIS is what great music looks like people. Wow

[@SeanPlaysThePiano]

How does this video not have like 50 million views yet??

[@lowclass21]

One of the best covers in my opinion ! Great job !

[@thelanakb]

Beautiful! Your voice is amazing Jake!

[@LELIZEEN]

Le top de ce que j'ai entendu, superbe interprétation, et une voix fantastique. The top i have heard, superb interprétation, and voice fantastic.

[@Sequiel22]

With this cover, you have just reminded me how powerful music is. We usually think that it takes at least 4 instruments to make good music, and we tend to forget that sometimes, it only takes one guy playing his piano and singing to make you feel a lot of emotions. You've just made me want to grab my guitar and play this song. Thank you, that means a lot to me, and thank you for being such a great inspiration.

[@leehrossi04]

I felt this music in my soul, touched my heart. Your voice is perfect Jake, thank you for this !

[@marcinprzybyciel]

Jake, the best version of this song I've ever heard. I'm fascinated. Your voice - AMAZING, interpretation - breaks my heart. You're the best!

I love that you still love singing and music and it is what keeps you alive every day. I love you and am proud of every single accomplishment that you have achieved. You are my light, my life and my strength xoxo

[@deanobarnett]

There is nowhere to hide on this song,You are absolutely nailing it,I am listening to something very special,amazing vocal range,especially enjoyed the falcetto towards the end.In my humble opinion World Class!!

[@mollycooling8299]

I really really like this video, you are a great singer, 2 secondes after you started singing, i had tears to my eyes, you are excellent! Keep up the work!

[@DigitalMagicStudios]

This...was pretty amazing. I love the simplistic beauty of it. it just doesn't get much better than a voice and a piano.

[@zacharseneault]

jake man...this is amazing! i am blown away by your original sounding voice and have watched alot of your videos! keep it up!

[@jakecoco]

Zach Arseneault Yay! Glad you like it! Thanks for listening. You're awesome! :)

This is the most beautiful version of the song I've ever heard.

Absolutely beautiful and inspirational. I've always wanted to learn piano, and this has just given me that extra push that I needed.Thank you for taking the time to produce this.
