ANOTHER ONE....
There's been a disturbing trend of late, where great songs being covered by singers with "better trained" voices, employing all sorts of tonal gymnastics, but that fall far short of the soulfulness of the originals, leaving the experience shallow and flat.
I prefer this version to Leonard Cohen's drone.

Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
Give or take a night or two
- An excellent line from an excellent poet!
nice to hear a 30 year old cover for the first time.

I don't think it's the best way to get to know Concrete Blonde... a band still unknown to me, but time to time. Leonard Cohen is blurred rhythmically, but he keeps the spirit very well in a few occasions. I think of Jeff Buckley, Joan Baez or Enrique Morente.
Not Joey. Joey and Caroline get all the airplay and there are so many other songs.
I usually love RP's selection but this cover SUCKS BADLY
CB's cover = 9
PSD selection
The song did the same for me.... It was in the movie Pump Up the Volume...anyway, it soothed a teenage heart.

Was so thinking the same

Regardless who sings it.
It's a pretty good cover, IMO. Different from Cohen's, but as good covers should, it adds a new layer of interpretation to the song. Plus it's danceable, and yer woman has a cracking voice :)
Yep...but it is harmless I suppose. Kinda safe and dull to me.
Everybody's nose
