Wow. What a fabulous rendition of a classic Cohen song. I was working hard and then this song captivated me.

Incredible, evocative, surreal interpretation of LC's brilliant gem echoing the voice of Billie Holliday and the wacky keys of Yo La Tengo.

I usually do not like alternate arrangements of Leonard Cohen songs.  This, though, is magnificent, keeping so well to the integrity of the words/music.

What a voice- it's every bit as timeless and towering as the song she's singing. Outstanding.

Love the sound of her 's' and 't'. Shimmying plush percussion. Sleuthing piano.

Never actually liked Cohen's interpretations of his own songs.

 
Not really "interpretations" if that's the way he wrote them.

Apparently, I rated this a four? I must have been having a bad day. Easily a 7, sorry Mads.

Really nice, but are you aware of this Yiddish version? I like it even better.
