  • i been watching this video for months and dont even come close. i cant figure out how he does it. he must have some weird muscle setup in his hands or something. mabe I should start smoking

  • simply amazing :D, such a perfect voice too!

  • great cover dudde...the best house made i´ve seen...cheers

  • quite simply the best music I've heard in years, whoever you are you're being marketed wrongly...anyway thankyou for your music...i just can't understand why someone like you isn't being taken on by some music company

  • ni trop, ni trop peu... just good! thank you

  • awesome, well done

  • fucker......you are goooood!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • the best cover i've heard :) great!

  • really good, congratulations!

  • damnit how do you do that.. thanks for the video, now i can learn how to pick this song.. even though i dont have a capo so i have to mess around with the chords

    nice job! :) very nice.. you have a voice like harry chapin, sorta

  • this is fantastic. great guitar work!

  • i liked it alot

  • I recognise the accent - are you from Raheny ?

  • is this a hard song to play?

  • @mosnotdef1 yes, a bit.. but with practice it comes to you.. im still practicing lol

  • Good job man.

  • Redécouvrir ainsi Léonard Cohen est un vrai bonheur! Merci!

  • god. you're so good

  • He's not from France or Quebec

  • Not bad, I must admit

  • Just perfect...

  • @jimmypage2322 Is he from Canada?

  • Bluevasco from Canada? He signs "Dublin", so I think he's from Ireland.

    Why?

  • Mon dieu! Epousez-moi, s'il vous plait!

  • You have a wonderful, very listenable, movingly honest voice, which I adored. Only two criscisms: one, the extra notes on the guitar didn't work in my opinion, and I missed the depth of having extra (preferably female) voices during the french section. Very nice version of a song I think it's tough to cover well, but you could make it really fantastic if you added in those extra voices.

  • Voce molto interessante

  • great cover

  • This is one of my favourite songs and you did a fantastic job! Great voice and great guitar playing! I am french speaking so i noticed the accent when you sang the french part, but that is authentic and charming. You should make a living out of this!

  • Excellente reprise, voix juste, guitare impeccable, rythme parfait - touchant!

  • perfect cover!! Good Job!

  • Wow great job!

    Would you care to tab this? cant find any decent one on the net

  • I like the touch of smoke in the foreground ;-)

    Ace song

  • Several points, Laurie (?)

    I thought that this was an original Cohen song, but was written in 1943 by Emmanuel D'Astier de la Vigerie (called "Bernard" in the French Resistance) and Anna Marly.

    That aside, this is utterly brilliant in an impromptu way. I love the guitar-playing, the cigarette wasting away (and the resultant smoke), the TV still on, the bad french and the great singing by someone from a land of partisans. Awesome, mate! Erin go bragh and vive la France!

  • Yeah this is why he chose to sing in french too!

  • Thanks man love your version, trying to learn it at the moment, those triplets... but the main things is getting those base notes right, thanks this should help me learn it right, Thanks again and great job and song.

  • What an absoultely delightful cover.

    you have captured the mood of the original absolutely perfectly.

    great job!

  • Maybe I have yet post a comment, but im not sure. I have see your video twenty times, your interpretations is so incredible. If u have other cover of cohen , not wait to post. Thx for this video (for me the best cover in youtube)

  • I agree, this is the best partisan cover on youtube - and if he has some more LC covers I hope he uploads them....

  • bro..

  • very nice indeed

  • Great version of this song! Thanks for it!

  • I like this more then Cohen's honestly, and thats saying something.

  • Fantastic! I've not found a good tablature for this song in the Internet. I know the chords, but I don't exactly know how the "strumming" is (I mean, in which order you play the strings with your right fingers). Could you tell us?

    Congratulations! Your voice is amazing, and the song seems totally modern.

  • This is cool. I love this song. I'm a big Cohen fan. he's a big influence.

    I love your strong voice. The words are very clear.  The way it should be done. The audio quality is actually really good.

  • Beautiful! There are many covers on here, and the only way to get credit is conserve the original picking! Your voice has such character as well!

  • ya man, really nice finger picking and vocal styling.

  • you really have pulled this one off

  • Wow dude, I have to give you credit. Good job.
