This is the verse of Hallelujah which annoyed me:

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

But, I find Leonard Cohen really annoying to listen to anyway - sorry to all his fans - so it was unpleasant for me from the get-go, even though it was sung by someone else. If it had been Jeff Buckley it might have been a bit better for me, but still a strange choice of song for a funeral. The funeral home actually has it as one of a few recommended songs or pieces of music. Very strange to me.

As for clearing out stuff: well done, keep up the good work SRS. That issue is what wakes me up in the middle of the night because we have a shed full of stuff to throw out. I'm thinking the only way to really tackle it is to call in the junk removers.
