Hallelujah, Halleluyah, or Alleluia, is a transliteration of the Hebrew word הַלְּלוּיָהּ (Standard Hebrew HallÉ™luya, Tiberian Hebrew HallÉ™lûyÄh) meaning "[Let us] praise (הַלְּלוּ) Jah (Yah) (יָהּ)" (Sometimes rendered as "Praise (הַלְּלוּ) [the] LORD (יָהּ)or God"). It is found mainly in the book of Psalms. It has been accepted into the English language.
"Hallelujah" is a song written by Leonard Cohen. It was first recorded on his 1984 album Various Positions.
Hallelujah (Hebrew script: הללויה) was the winning song of the Eurovision Song Contest 1979, performed in Hebrew by Gali Atari and Milk & Honey for Israel. This was the third occasion on which the previous year's host country had won the Contest (Spain and Luxembourg had achieved the feat before this) and there would be one more such occasion to date (Ireland winning three times in a row). Unusually, Israel would neither host nor compete in the next Contest, due to its scheduling coinciding with the national Holocaust rememberance day.
Hallelujah is a 1969 album by Canned Heat. It was re-released on CD in 2001 by MAM productions with four bonus tracks.
"Hallelujah" was a song from Handel's Messiah: A Soulful Celebration, a Grammy award winning Reprise Records concept album.
