Over in the [What song actually makes you shout NO! and change the station?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-song-actually-makes-you-shout-no-and-change-the-station/952172) thread, @BlankSlate made an astute observation regarding the OP: > Absolutely anyone singing freakin’ _Hallelujah._ It’s one of the most covered songs simply to add to my misery. There is a website called [Secondhandsongs](https://secondhandsongs.com/) on which one can search for covers. Which prompts the question, of all the awful versions of Halleluja, which is the worst?

There’s no way I’m listening to that lot; _but wait_ - as soon as I had found the following, I knew my work was done.
