Welcome to FACE OFF, where you are the Judge Judy and executioner.
It's time for some FACE OFF, and what better way to come back from a recess than with a six seven-entry contest? This week's a little bit different; rather than just doing songs with the same title, we're doing version of the song "Hallelujah." It's a famous song that's been covered a gajillion times, and it seems like everyone has their favorite version. There's Leonard Cohen's, the original; John Cale's, the one from Shrek; Rufus Wainwright's, the one from the Shrek soundtrack; Brandi Carlile's, my favorite; k.d. lang's, the one by the Canadian lesbian lady who looks like a dude and Jeff Buckley's, the one by Jeff Buckley. Which is your favorite? (The Brandi Carlile stream isn't big because it's my favorite but because I couldn't find it on YouTube and it's my favorite.)
If you've got another suggestion, just let me know, and I'll add it in. Vote in the poll on the left!
