There are lots of riffs that are similar. It's down to cadence in most instances.
If you listen to the start of the whinehouse version, that is footloose.

How did you guess lol
The other singer is a bit 'spooky haunting' to me.

Lol - hard to imagine what the world will be like without any new songs and poems from Mr. Cohen. He's just announced a new album in the coming months to celebrate his 80th birthday.

Apart from Dylan and The Beatles, I doubt anyone has been covered more than Leaonard Cohen (not counting the Great American Songbook composers, naturally).

One of my favourites...and a little depressing - there are no artists as supreme as Nina anymore. Just watch and listen to how she plays that mic.

Leonard Cohen may be a bit of an acquired taste Karen, but he's absolutely great. Rapt to read he's releasing another album

Here's another cover of his that I don't mind, sung by Johnny Cash (you know who he is right );

 

[karencatsfan]

Vaguely.
Will have a listen.
Still spinning out that an 80 year old is recording music

Hey, if they can use the interwebz, they can make music.

Do you know any 80 year olds that can use the net? My grandparents are hopeless lol!
However, I'm watching X factor now oops: I know) and there's some teeny bopper boy bands destroying perfectly good songs. So I guess good musicians aren't age dependent.

Not bad, this thread is doing wonders for broadening my musical tastes.
Although I'd heard the name, had never paid much attention to Leonard Cohen's music before.

maybe covers would be better for ya:

 

[darren forssman]

Not bad DF
I've been trying to figure out how to post a music clip on here of a cover I like, just won't work
(maybe better if I don't, I'll get a 'strike' no doubt )

i give you a strike in anticipation then.

 

[darren forssman]

I was 18 mate! No blue light. Scotch and coke !

Actually I may have still been 17.
