k.d. Lang In 2004, k.d. Lang recorded a version of Hallelujah on her album Hymns of the 49th Parallel. She has since sung it at several major events, such as at the Canadian Juno Awards of 2005, where it brought the audience to its feet for a two-minute ovation. Lang also sang it at the 2006 Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame when Cohen was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Cohens partner, singer Anjani Thomas, said: After hearing K.D. Lang perform that song at the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2006 we looked at each other and said, well, I think we can lay that song to rest now! Its really been done to its ultimate blissful state of perfection. Lang sang it at the opening ceremony of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, before a claimed TV audience of three billion. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallelujah_%28Leonard_Cohen_song%29#Charts_4
