[@SourabhAdhikary1906]

This song has always been my most favorite, and I keep looking for different versions and arrangements. I simply loved this one. I just wish I could pour hot oil in the ears of those 372 who actually disliked it.

[@hungprodnnguyen6386]

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Thank you very much Karen!

[@sebcal7076]

I listen to this when studying. Perfect.

[@rynk.7577]

Incredible... absolutely incredible... This is why music is so important for so many... it can express feelings words just can't describe, and the emotions that you put into your performances are so riveting and passionate it changes the meaning. So much so that you can actually feel the music, and not only hear, but feel the emotion in it, and that is what true music is. Thank you so much for sharing your blessing with the world

[@beeps123]

Beautiful. Love this song. Always thought that it sounded better on strings, but this rendition has changed my mind.

[@mayurkalsekar524]

wonderful composition, wish i could be able to play this some day!

[@georgesmith4793]

A Real Beautiful piece , will a!ways enjoy hearing this song and all the other song this Gentleman does

[@arturpulatov4312]

You are absolutely amazing. After my time with studying guitar in college I hope to one day be as good as you. You are an inspiration to me Per-Olav. Thank you for sharing your guitar playing to the world!

[@endlessheart]

A beautiful melody, a wonderful life and God !!

[@MplsSouthGrrrl]

Just the kind of musical salve needed right now! ♥️

[@colinbragg1621]

As I watch your videos, I am taken by your sense of time. You give melodies space to breathe! Thank you for your gift.

[@Wundermacher]

Dear Per-Olov, What a joy to listen just to your "Hallelujah"! This song means so much to me... Why? I will explain it later. Now I have tears in my eyes... Thank you, Per-Olov

[@vxORIONxv]

I love this version. So so good.

[@sam-ff8fk]

[@grandmabente123]

Per you and Andres Segovia are my favourites you so humbly let the guitar be the one singing the song so clearly

[@TRW1_0]

I've heard so many versions of this song but this one has to be my favorite it's just so peaceful from the birds at the beginning to the remarkable playing throughout, bravo

[@timothyrea4757]

Wonderful composition....wonderful artist!

[@kpdcym]

It is a beautiful and moving performance. Fantastic !!!

[@tomasemilio]

[@celenaderderian]

So calming and beautiful--thank you for calming my anxiety with your musical talent

[@sssBlackHawksss]

Keep the uploads coming Per-Olov, its a joy to watch whatever you play!

[@LostCaper]

Off everybody on youtube this is the guy I can lesson to the longest and the most. Such percussion. Unread and everything he plays is played as close to perfection and you can get. I play decent guitar, nowheres close to Kindren and I know just how hard it is to play this precise. Fantastic job. Your the best.

[@michaelh7538]

Bella Chitarra!!! You make absolutely beautiful music. God has truly blessed you with a gift.

[@NguyenNguyen-gs4mm]

I absolutely love your arrangement

[@canonindmajorbyjohannpache733]

You are truly amazing, thank you for this beautiful version of Hallelujah. God Bless always and forever

[@iorekbyrnson7173]

I've just started playing classical guitar. And my God sir, you've inspired me so much. Hopefully I can one day play as beautifully as you.

[@claubauermartire]

I love listening to you all the time! Thank you again and again!

[@SquareBiscuitProductions]

I listen to these covers when I am in deep thought, contemplating the world, or sad and lonely, and they never fail to ease my sorrow and re-ignite my hunger for more beautiful music like this :) Bravo!

[@conigjo62]

An amazing sharp crisp perfect rendition ... Thank You

[@youngyoo0313]

Divine. Simply beautiful. I'm listening to this at two'O clock in the morning. And my heart is crying. Your playing is very comforting, sir. A shoulder to cry on.. Thank you.

[@diegoalvarez8605]

유소영 same lol

[@fleurvandervelden5434]

absolutely stunning. Tears.

[@brokkenmask]

wow...that was amazing. Thank you sir for sharing.

[@DarrylMellema]

I find myself coming back to this again and again -- today in the middle of a tricky work day -- and it is always so wonderful to listen to. There are so many (dozen) great Per-Olov Kindgren songs and arrangements!

[@jponetwo]

No matter what I listen to you play, I know and feel it comes from your heart. Especially so on this piece where you note "there is space for improvisation". Thank you most kindly for sharing.

[@GuitardaMur]

Oh my god..... how I love it, thanks a lot Per-Olof

[@henryallan9167]

Superb phrasing, the music speaks the singing, it feels like there's a voice within the music

[@09lazure]

a hymn to a great composer. thank you!

[@cecilourenco]

Cuánto sentimiento!!! ...maravilloso....un abrazo desde Argentina

[@paulmanchester7257]

since it does not look likely that Per's arrangement will be available publicly, you can find some inferior arrangements of this song, with some of the Jeff Buckley additions, for sale on the internet. Then you can use your arrangement as a starting point as you figure out what Per has done so well. It is slow work for an amateur like me but I have been able to figure out what he has done and make a workable arrangement this close enough by watching and listening to this video. As always, Per is an excellent arranger and musician, greatly appreciate his work.

[@henryd6163]

Thank you for the relaxing and beautiful melodies. This inspires me to pick up the guitar again. Thank you.

[@christopherd6399]

I so hope I can get the sheet music for this some day. What a perfect rendition.

[@HyodaRichard]

j'attends avec impatience quand elle sera disponible. I look forward to when it will be available.

[@danielas94]

It's amazing how I discovered your music a while ago, around 2009/2010 maybe and then somehow with all the changes happening, I forgot about your music. And now, about four years pass and still it is absolutely amazing, it's so wonderful how after 4 full years your music is just as touching as it was the moment I stumbled upon it. Thank you very much, Mr. Kindgren.

[@SantiagoGarcia-od5gr]

Estupenda versión para guitarra del famoso poema de Cohen.

[@RodAlmaraz]

No words to describe this beautiful arrangement!

[@tedwardkio1584]

Per-Olov Kindgren....that was one of the best stripped down and laid back versions of Canon D that I have ever heard. You are a true talent!

[@ChetParker75]

Lovely.Absolutely amazing.

[@Jacob-x1d]

I'm sitting on my bed, can't fall asleep, and I'm stifled, can't breath well. This soothing masterpiece you've made, it just gives me serenity. thank you, sir.

[@badfish41969]

God that is so hauntingly beautiful, so clean and precise, blows the other compositions I've heard out of the water

[@Abhishek.b1576]

An awesome guitar player? He makes the guitar sing, and express the song. You're awesome.

[@elnacardellimoraes3775]

Para Per- Olov Kindgreen: Ouvir "HALLELUJAH" ao dedilhado de seu instrumento é maravilhoso, suas músicas açompanham todas as minhas manhãs " CANON IN D" é viajar pelas criações divinas, sequer encontrei palavras para descrever o maravilhoso som que inspiram a alma. PARABENS.... PARABENS!!!

[@dercibueno6030]

É realmente fantástico!

[@Multz1919]

It's such a hauntingly beautiful song. You convey the emotion perfectly in the way you play. Absolutely amazing job!!

[@schwupi]

Thank you, Per-Olov! I had tears in my eyes. So beautiful...

[@enkianthus]

Beautiful! What more can I say!

[@jimbo2105]

Vous rendez justice à cette oeuvre grandiose... Autant à L.Cohen (Dieu ait son âme!) et à l'interprète majestueux qu'était J.Buckley... Votre interprétation est je suppose ce qui est dorénavant entendu en Haut avec la réunion de ces deux grands musiciens! Merci

[@ashockey10]

I love it Per-Olov, but I see it out there now and it is something worthwhile to me, the arrangement I mean, but still can't wait to have the chance to buy your super arrangement.

[@MarioAlbertoCordovaGomez]

wonderful, it's always a pleasure listen your guitar.

[@arbrekim1352]

You play in such a smooth, 'clean', straight forward way that it goes direct to heart.Thank you for being on this troubled Planet and for the comfort I get from listening to you playing this marvellous instrument.
