He's adopted the style of Wainwright and Buckley? How so? Not suggesting otherwise because I've not seen him live, I just can't imagine it.

for anyone that would like to take the Hallelujah challenge:
Rufus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMrZ7lChK-g
Buckley: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIw0ewEsNHs
Cohen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrLk4vdY28Q&ob=av2e
Three different and distinct interpretations of a wonderful song.
I'm a fan of all three musicians but I'm not a fan of Rufus' version. He is great though and this has inspired me to post a song by him.
