Judy sings Leo's Joan!

Judy swaying dreamily at the keyboard, eyes closed smiling blissfully turning yet another page in the oeuvre of Cohen . . .

I saw her around this time at the barbican london, and most recently at the jazz rock cafe in london, january 2009, where someone , south african by his accent, nearly spoiled it for me by praising her loudly about 10 seconds before the end of each song! Ive noticed a kind of thematic similarity with this song and 'priests' one of my favourite songs ever, also by leonard cohen. maybe a loose connection, but early paul simon had some religiously themed songs too.

This is the best cover I've heard of this mysterious song by poet-songwriter-singer L Cohen. The rendition is beautiful in its simplicity and Ms Collin's facial expression all throughout combine to help realize the dark, painful poetry in the song. Thank you so much for posting it.

The is something called "Greenland Fisheries" or something like that, on a very early album.

Hello. Her vocal cord surgery was in 1978. This performance was in 1989, 11 years later.

judging from all the falsetto, this performance was after her surgery i think - i much prefer not just her earlier voice, but how much simpler her performances were then - she let the story do the work instead of making her voice the story.

Forgotten how awesome a voice Mistress Collins has. Hauntingly beautiful as ever.

Betahifi, I just want to thank you so much for al the great clips you've uploaded of Judy and especially these where she sings Leonard Cohen. In a sense you can't really compare his originals and her covers can you?@ We're privileged to be able to see and hear both. A complete joy.

I first saw Cohen and Warnes sing this on Austin City Limits in the late 80's or early 90's. The song stuck with me ever since and really brought me to Cohen in earnest, a late convert. Judy's version is just as strong, very, very well done. A master doing a masterpiece. Glen

@julesmoody The best version of this song is the opening track on her live concert album 'Living'...two other songs, 'Innisfree'...and 'Vietnam Love Song'[....stunning!

One of my all time favorite songs and Judy's voice is always the one I hear when I think of this song.
