Jeff Buckley's stirring version of the classic Leonard Cohen tune "Hallelujah" is a song that deserves to get wide exposure, and it apparently got a lot of attention when a contestant on "American Idol" performed the song (in the style of Jeff Buckley's rendition, I've heard).

You can hear Jeff Buckley's version, straight from the record label, BMG, at the link below.

"Hallelujah" can be found on Jeff Buckley's album "Grace," which came out in 1994, just a few years before Buckley's untimely death at age 30.
