Buckley did an amazing version of this gong, but in fairness, Jason Castro’s version of Hallelujah (from American Idol Season 7, this year was a deep and heartfelt rendition causing Buckley’s version of the song to jump to #1 on iTunes. (because Castro was unable to have a song on iTunes during the American Idol competition). Buckley’s version never reached number 1, but Castro did bring it back to life. His song was beautiful and does deserve recognition as well.
