Pentatonix és un grup a cappella de cinc vocalistes dels Estats Units. No només van guanyar la tercera edició del programa The Sing-Off (sortint-ne amb 200.000 dòlars i un contracte amb Sony), sinó que també han rebut dos premis Grammy. Escoltem amb quina precisió, creativitat i talent interpreten l’Hallelujah de Leonard Cohen.
I’ve heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it please the Lord,
but you don’t really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall, 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 you.
She tied you to a kitchen chair
she broke your throne, she cut your hair,
and from your lips she drew the Hallellujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Baby, I’ve been here before.
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor.
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch,
but love is not a victory march,
it’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Maybe there’s a God above
but all I ever learned from love
was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew you.
And it’s not a cry that you hear tonight,
and it’s not somebody who’s seen the light –
it’s a cold and i’ts a broken Hallellujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
