Rob Wolf shares, “Hallelujah” is the first song I learned to cover and my favorite cover song. It is also my grandma’s favorite song and when I was about 8 years old, I made her a promise that one day I would learn to play and sing it for her. Well, little 8-year-old me grew up into a man, and here I am nearly fifteen years later releasing my own version of the song! Grandma, just like every other time: This one’s for you!”
“Now I’ve heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor falls, the major lifts
The baffled king composing
Hallelujah Hallelujah,
Hallelujah Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the
Hallelujah Hallelujah,
Hallelujah Hallelujah,
Hallelujah …”
“Hallelujah” was produced by Bold Studio Nashville. It was mixed by Mark Lonsway and mastered by Mayfield Mastering. Studio musicians on the single included Tyler Cain (electric guitar, bass), Jay Tooke (drums), Bruce Bouton (steel guitar) and Rob Wolf ( guitar).
