This amazing performance of Leonard Cohen’s timeless song “Hallelujah” is a must-see if you’re looking for something to watch today. The Black woman on The X Factor, Alexandra, did more than just sing; she made a difference in people’s lives. The whole room froze when she opened her mouth. The audience was in awe.
It shocked the judges. The entire crowd stood up and cheered through tears as she concluded. Her voice, according to one judge, was strong, gentle, and sincere. Simon Cowell, the master of scathing criticism, was taken aback and described it as “unbelievable.” You can be certain that anything was extraordinary when Simon Cowell describes it as “unbelievable.” The sincere passion, honesty, and raw talent that Alexandra displayed that evening have not been matched by any of the hundreds, if not thousands, of covers that have followed.
This amazing rendition of Leonard Cohen’s well-known song “Hallelujah” is the one thing you can’t miss today. During the 2008 season of X Factor, Alexandra Burke sang this timeless classic, winning a standing ovation from the judges as well as the public.
When the adjudicator commended Alexandra’s performance as strong, sympathetic, and sincere, we couldn’t agree more. You can be sure it was amazing because even Simon Cowell, the hardest judge to please, believed it was so. It’s a performance that will stick in your memory for years to come, and you’ll probably go back time and time again to take in its genius.
