We All Say Hallelujah

You can't hear what he's singing, at parts, but the sound conveys the right shimmy-shimmer and gauze. And since there's no video for this:


I guess I can put the lyrics right here (best as I can make out), since the post is otherwise empty: And go a day, not believe in God. The gray sky fell, we felt the pressure drop, and we were feeling down. Some eyes were looking down at us, and those that made the call. The judge what when they spoke said, "Not at all!" The words that came made not a sound. A mouth said, "Not a sound at all." What someone said, "We wrote a book," and rearranged the signs and forms to look like something understood, like something we had seen before - and waiting pensive, sad, and look up to the stars and counting all the suns and all the moons, how sad it was that we could not believe.
And everyone who believes, and everyone moved with ease and they said, "We all say hallelujah, we all said hallelujah" and everyone move around with ease, and everyone move with ease around and then, "We all said hallelujah, we all want answers anyway."
Still, we could not conceive the call. The midnight fell, we felt the measure fall and we were feeling down. Some eyes were looking down at us, and waiting pensive, sad, and look up to the stars and counting all the suns and all the moons. How sad it was, that we could not believe. And everyone who believes, and everyone who believes - and they said, "We all said hallelujah, we all say hallelujah" and everyone move around with ease, and everyone fell right to their knees and then, "We all said hallelujah," we don't want answers anyway.

We don't want answers anyway
