I couldnt resist this poetic masterpiece by Leonard Cohen and so beautiful sung by Jennifer Warnes. (Live) from "Famous blue raincoat" - 20th Anniversary 24K Gold Edition - 2007 (Original 1987) Pics a.o. by krmenxa and photoshop

Lyrics:

now the flames they followed joan of arc

as she came riding through the dark

no moon to keep her armor bright,

no man to get her through this dark and, smoky night

she said Im tired of the war,

I want the kind of work I had before

a wedding dress or something white,

to wear upon my swollen appetite

lalala........

well Im glad to hear you talk this way,

Ive watched you riding every day

and something in me, yearns to win,

such a cold, such a lonesome heroine

and who are you, she sternly spoke,

to the one beneath the smoke

why, Im fire, he replied and I love your solitude,

I love your pride

lalala....

well then fire make your body cold,

Im gonna give you mine to hold

and saying this, she climbed inside,

to be his one, to be his only bride

then deep into his fiery heart,

he took the dust of joan of arc

and high above all the wedding guests,

he hung the ashes of her lovely wedding dress

lalala...

It was deep into his fiery heart,

he took the dust of joan of arc

and then she clearly understood,

if he was fire oh.. she must be wood

I saw her wince, I saw her cry,

I saw the glory in her eyes

myself I long for love and light

but must it come so cruel, must it be so bright.

This is, in my opinion, the very best version of the Warnes/Cohen "Joan of Arc." Simple and powerful!

I think Leonard Cohen fulfils a poet's primary function , that is to strike a chord in the human heart. His songs have tremendous pathos. His modesty and , as someone said in a previous posting, "his unadorned humanity", makes his songs even more resonant.

I've listened to this many times since I found it. I think it's the best version. It's surely one of the best songs ever written. It's better sung by a woman. Loved the image at 1:27. There she stands, unafraid, confident, with an air of nobility...... Superb.

I never realised Jennifer Warnes had such a great voice, beautifully clear and with power. She sang backing vocals for Leonard Cohen many times. Great version.

Thanks for posting. Now that the dust of the 70s, 80s, and 90s has settled, it's safe to say that Jennifer Warnes had the premier female pop/folk voice of the era.
