I had a conversation recently regarding this song. I've hear a lot of covers of this Leonard Cohen classic, including the fellow conversationalist's pick of Bon Jovi (?). Whenever I bump into a new version, I give it a listen start to finish. And I always compare it to this version. I've found none better....This still sends shivers down my spine. If you listen to it without the "artsy" video, it mesmerizes.
