After using every opportunity to poke fun at the US Presidential election, SNL choose drama over comedy to open the show Saturday night.

Kate McKinnon, as Hillary Clinton, sang Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ as she played piano. Leonard Cohen passed away earlier this week at the age of 82.

At the end of the song, “Hilary” says “I’m not giving up and neither should you….live from New York, it’s Saturday night!”

Beautiful.
