Jeff Buckley- Hallelujah- Music Video

Eines der schönsten Lieder aus dem Film “Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei”,
den ich nur empfehlen kann, wenn man sich mal “against the system”
fühlt. Genauso wie der Film ist das Video ein wenig politisch, hier noch
der englische Text zum Lied und einen lieben Gruß an David, mit dem
ich es beim Autofahren so schön gesungen habe:

Well I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do ya?
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
And 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

Well 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 you
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 is a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya
And it’s not a cry that you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
