Hallelujah!
Despite the commotion about the Alexandra Burke version of Hallelujah, Natalia & Gabriel Rios recorded a new version of the Hallelujah-song for the 1212 – Help Haiti charity show on Belgian public and commercial TV stations (één & VTM)

Buy the song to support Haiti (not yet available on itunes – 21- Jan 2010)
Hallelujah – Natalia & Gabriel Rios
Feel free to compare with:
Hallelujah – Jeff Buckley
Hallelujah – Leonard Cohen
