Wedding Song

Post by LovelyLadyLux »

Love this song hands down but this is a beautiful new twist on it (although the Irish Priest's brogue is coming through a bit) ;)

DUBLIN (AP) -- Father's got talent.

An Irish priest has become a social-media sensation after he surprised a bride and groom by singing a custom-made cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" at their wedding.

Video of the Rev. Ray Kelly's altar-side performance has shot to the top of YouTube in Ireland with more than 240,000 viewings since it was posted Monday following the weekend nuptials of Chris and Leah O'Kane.

The parish priest in the town of Oldcastle, northwest of Dublin, started his version with the words: "We join together here today, to help two people on their way, as Leah and Chris start their life together."

Kelly wins laughter midway as he raises his eyebrows at the stunned couple, and offers a playful wink at the end.

LLL, the problem is usually the source of the video, none YouTube sites often will not display properly. Always have a look to see if the video you are watching has another link that says something like 'Watch on YouTube', if you do this and then copy the YouTube link and insert that link between the Video brackets it usually works. :up
