Leonard Cohen's Estate Warns Trump Never to Use His Song [View all]
Leonard Cohen's estate has objected to Donald Trump's planned use of his song "Hallelujah" at the Freedom 250 rally in Washington.
Trump, 80, said weeks ago that singers Lee Greenwood and Christopher Macchio would take the stage at the Great American State Fair, with Macchio singing the 1984 single, among other tunes.
"The Leonard Cohen Estate has learned that the song 'Hallelujah' is to be performed at a Donald Trump rally on June 24," says a Facebook post on Cohen's account. "This use is not authorized, and the Estate does not support or approve of this or any similar usage. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

After Macchio went ahead with "Hallelujah" on Wednesday, a B2 bomber made a flyover.
