Sunday’s Here – Hallelujah

After a week of fighting some kind of virus that has been giving me a combination of cold and flu symptoms, I’m hoping to shake it on this Sunday.  The plan is to get a bit of work done around the house and go for a short hike to get enough fresh air.

Of course, there are lots of great spots to go for a hike around here and I do have a location in mind, such as in this image (it won’t look like this anymore, as this is from earlier in the Autumn season).

It should be restorative to walk through the landscape, as it is a beautiful day.  I might even capture an image or two!

Then there will be time for guitar practice, for which I have a specific goal: with this week’s passing of the great Leonard Cohen, I want to spend time on improving my playing of his magnificent song, Hallelujah.  There are many great covers of this song by artist ranging from Jeff Buckley and Rufus Wainwright to Jon Bon Jovi, but for my ears, I always like going back to the master…

 

Have a wonderful Sunday!

    Oh, have you listen to the Pentatonix version of “Hallelujah”? I literally cried the first time I listened. It’s my fave version of one of my fave songs 🙂

      I have heard it, as my wife is a big fan. I just love the tenderness in this rendition by Leonard Cohen.

    He was such a great artist and that’s one of my favorite songs to sing and play on my guitar.
    Hope you had a nice walk Frank.
