The video you posted about Cohen's youth opened my eyes to the genesis of his music style. It's his BG listening to the singers in the Synagogue.

"Hallelujah." What is it about this word that makes it appeal to so many people? We all love to sing it. Hallelujah (/?hæl?'lu?j?/ HAL-i-LOO-y?) is an English interjection. It is a transliteration of the Hebrew phrase ??????? ???? (Modern Hebrew halluyah, Tiberian hal?luyah), which is composed of two elements: ??????? (second-person imperative masculine plural form of the Hebrew verb hillel: an exhortation to "praise" addressed to several people[1]) and ???? (the name of God Yah).[2][3][4] The term is used 24 times in the Hebrew Bible (in the book of Psalms), twice in deuterocanonical books, and four times in the Christian Book of Revelation.[5] The phrase is used in Judaism as part of the Hallel prayers, and in Christian prayer,[5] where since the earliest times[6] it is used in various ways in liturgies,[7] especially those of the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church,[8] both of which use the form "alleluia" which is based on the alternative Greek transliteration.
