A question about : Jeff Buckley

Stop the X-Factor juggernaut. If you're going to buy a version of Hallelujah this Christmas please buy this version.

https://www.7digital.com/artists/jeff.../hallelujah-1/ - unencumbered high quality 320k mp3 89p

https://www.tunetribe.com/product/index.html?id=604507 - cheaper but semi-crippled WMA (windows file) only 49p

https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/M...78201&s=143444 - 79p but DRM AAC file from Apple

https://www.play.com/Music/MP3-Downlo...ml?aid=6754310 - Play.com 65p

Best answers:

  • :rolleyes:
    Is it really going to affect you if the X Factor single is No1? :confused: :rolleyes:
  • Why pay-its free legally if you look.
  • Or listen to it for free on deezer.com.
  • i agree that this version should be number one.
    she totally over sang it on x factor. jeff buckley must be rolling in his grave.
    but lets face it....nothings going to stop it being number one.
  • It could have been much worse. Diana could have been singing it.
  • touche! sarah. touche!
  • 49 WHOLE pennies for a karaoke song?? what a rip off!
  • It's just a shame this version has never been officially released as IMO it blows ALL the other ones out of the water (and, to the uninformed, yes, it is a woman :rolleyes: , and arguably the best female singer on the planet).

  • There is a big following of this building up. If everyone does download it, it might just stop the Xfactor Christmas number one.

    Saturday was a huge payday for Simon Cowell and a very good night indeed for ITV, which will have made well over Ј3million from the 8million phone votes cast.
    But the winner, Alexandra Burke, will be taking home hardly enough to pay for the blinging cocktail ring worn by her idol Beyonc! on the show.
  • Ah, the Daily Nazi!
    You'll get a really balanced view from there no doubt.
  • Alternatively, you could avoid all of these silly Hallelujah wars, and download Sir Terry's CHARITY single.

    Face it, there's no chance of X-Factor not getting to No.1, and why shouldn't it at the end of the day? That girl can sing! So, rather than this crazy 'My Hallelujah is better than your Hallelujah' nonsense, buy 'Little Drummer Boy' and content yourself with the knowledge that you've not been suckered in by the media, and you've also given money to charity.
    Easy
  • If your going to buy this track don't buy from Amazon as I hear it does contribute to the top 40 chart.
  • Lol...my twopennies worth is
    I hate Jeff Buckleys depressing version so much that when i heard the x-factor winner was going to sing it, I was sure I would hate it......but she sings it beautifully without it being dreary....
  • its not meant to be an s club 7 pop track you know?
    its meant to be somewhat dreary, its a song about a struggle with love. But as has been said...nobody is going to stop x factor getting to number 1.
  • why buy Jeff Buckleys version?
    why not get the original?
  • because Buckley brought something to the song that Cohen just couldn't.
    Buckley's might not have been the original but it's largely deemed the 'better' of the often covered song.
  • take your pick listen to them all and decide
