Description: In this video, 'How to Cover it Badly', I look at various ways that ‘Hallelujah’ is covered by taking a look at Jeff Buckley, Leonard Cohen, Ed Sheeran, Bono and a range of other musicians from YouTube, Pop Idol and The Voice. I explain various aspects of the song by investigating its lyrics and the underlying structure that makes it tick! Along the way, I get a bit mean too! (Belated R.I.P to Leonard Cohen and extremely belated R.I.P to Jeff Buckley).
