LINER NOTES
Hallelujah: Written by Leonard Cohen.  Lead vocal, bacing vocals, finger clicks: Bono.  Backing vocals: Louise McCormick.  Keys: Jeremy Shaw.  Produced by Bono.  Engineered, mixed and recorded by Louise McCormick.  Additional production and remix: Howie B.  Assistant engineers: Will and Danny.
OTHER NOTES
This was a tribute album to the work of Leonard Cohen, a Canadian artist.  Bono contributes a solo version of the track "Hallelujah" to this CD, and the song would go on to play a big role in U2 concerts over the years following as Bono would often sing snippets from the song to end a show.

This album was released in two very different covers.  The one with the flames is reminiscent of an early Cohen album.  This was the cover used in Canada.  The other cover with the notebook look was used in other regions around the world.
