Bon Jovi are like GNR, anything they cover is usually better than original: One of my fave things about bands are how good are the backing vocalist. With Richie,Dave,Alec, BJ backup vocals are 2nd to none. Tico may be one of the most under rated drummers of all time.. musicianship is off charts. Dave won a freaking Tony Award for writing Broadway show for fuck's sake.

I don't know what it is but I've never been overly impressed with Bon Jovi's cover of Hallelujah. It's good don't get me wrong but I've never been struck by it. KD Lang's version now... WOW!

This was her performance at the 2010 winter olympics. It's incredible. No video is avilable though dude to copyrights.

I'd also LOVE to hear U2 do a full version of it(Bono's actual studio cover of it sucks). Bono used it as an into to Where the Streets Have no Name though on a  few shows last tour. Sounded pretty good for just him and his very limited guitar skills 14

I know it's not an opinion shared by everyone but Bono's voice has so much soul that songs like Hallelujah seem tailor made for him as well as this one. Would love to hear a full version of this as well

I assume you've heard this?

If you haven't and you want it, let me know. I have the entire show in far better quality than this YouTube post.

Uhm. No. That's my favorite song. Fucking great cover. I do prefer the stones version but this is good as fuck.

I've heard it. Great stuff. Goes back to my backing vocals comment. Richie Prob greatest backing vocalist that wasn't a lead vocalist i've ever heard. 

Jon also does an amazing cover of Carole King's "Goin Back"

Fucking gives me chills everytime:
