Songs from my age are precious to me and others. They spoke to our lives and experiences. Not that they were tender love songs, but the songs were meaningful.
Leonard Cohen composed and sang "Hallelujah" all around the world. Other artists arranged and re-arranged the lyrics by bits, keeping the general flow and sincerity of the song. I wonder if he could have known the impact this song has had?
Pentatonix, a music acapella group, performed the song with their unique vocal combinations. Here, an 11 yr. old girl, Kaylee, performed with them on stage. Kaylee has ADHD and Autism, a girl with tremendous talent.
History shows the artists through time who have struggled with difficulties which were kept hidden or undefined them. But when we hear how they fought "the devils" to write or paint their treasures we can appreciate how they wrestle with much.
