I saw him perform this a few years ago. I have been lucky to have attended lots of top notch concerts over the years but Cohen's was definitely the best I have ever been to. The man is a master and gave an incredibly long (not overlong) performance that younger musicians should take notice of. Everyone really got their money's worth.
Loved the song!
ReplyDeleteSue says it was in the Shrek Movie.
Yes, a Rufus Wainwright version with modified lyrics for the kiddies. Rufus does a great version, but no-one can sing Cohen like the man himself!

ReplyDeleteHis back up singers and band were amazing too. His social commentary in 'Everybody Knows' was running through my head today ...
