Say Hallelujah
Throw up your hands
The bucket is kicked
The body is gone
...
The sun will rise
The stars will shine
Turning day to dusk
And night to dawn
We'll pass on
But until that time
Say Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Say Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Say Hallelujah
Throw up your hands
The bucket is kicked
The body is gone
Have mercy
It's a wonderful life
Eternal rest for the weary
Mourners party tonight
Say Hallelujah
Throw up your hands
The bucket is kicked
The body is gone
Wave your hands
But don't say goodbye
We're all gonna meet you
On the other side

This woman is one of the - if not the - most genuine artist I have come across - she walked on stage last night with an infectious smile, dressed in simple clothes, opened her set with 'Say Hallelujah' and delivered her meaning-full, engaging and challenging songs in the most humble manner. Big up Tracy Chapman, not only for having a hauntingly beautiful voice, but for making music with meaning, rather than making music for the sake of making music.
Wait no longer to go buy all her cds :)
