We have a special rendition of his "Hallelujah".  We learned it from one of our Lutheran youth gatherings.  We will be doing it tomorrow in church and remembering him.

The actress who plays Hillary Clinton on Saturday Night Live did a rendition of Cohen's Hallelujah to open the show last night.  It was quite nice as she also played the piano.
