Ron Lindeman The Partisan (acoustic)

[pbalwaysinformed]

Very good interpretation!

[korvinsnerfable]

Great job, well done, BRAVO!

[IvoniceAstrid]

I like your version Ron, you did it really well, it adds another feel altogether . xxx

[johngruman]

I too am a fan of Cohen's version and bluevasco's version is very nice. That said, bravo on your very different version. It is really unique and surprising. When you can take material that is familiar to many and make it into something fresh, you are operating at the highest levels of musicianship. Congratulations. Don't lose the capo! This range in your voice has a wonderful "keening" quality. Thanks for posting. This is a terrific performance.

[MIRZAbass]

Brilliant arrangement!

Way to go man!

[TTRTHJGMP]

Ron* Your voice was perfect..

You carried the vocals well*

I didn't hear not one crack in your voice..

Good song,Great voice..xox...Lane*

[Saiborg123]

Not compareable to bluevasco's version.

[yinyangron]

I've watched his version and it's a copy of the original version by Leonard Cohen. Music isn't about copying an original. If you want to hear the original, listen to Cohen. Music is about adding to a song what is specifically your own. So the song becomes your song. On my channel's info I've written how I think about making music.Music is creating your own identity as a musician. Not becoming a copy of an existing musician. cheers, Ron!

[Charilaos88]

Yeah but there are many who don't consider themselves as musicians.

I don't see something not good about covering a song as it was original.And also it's not a copy of an exsisting musician just because he played it like cohen.Everyone has it's own voice.And bluevasco did a great job.

I prefer your vocals though.But i think you are bit strong to your statement here.

Greetings from Greece

[puujdo]

it's not Cohen lyrics neither, this is really old song and Cohen covered as well

[Vamp1963]

try without a capo... like Mr.Cohen, gives it a more deep sound.

[ijsschots]

Kijk even op de myspace site van furiagitana!!

[ijsschots]

Anna Marly has written the music in 1942 and one year later Joseph Kessel en Maurice Druon did write the lyrics. It became a song of the French resistance in WW2.

[yinyangron]

Yes I know, I changed the lyrics a bit of the french part in the song.Instead of "les allemands" I changed it into "les soldats". And some other minor changes to give it a general meaning and not specifically related to WWII. So contemporary listeners can relate to it too.

[ijsschots]

A good friend of my plays the Flamenco guitar. Have a look at his site! myspace dot com/edbeerepoot

[yinyangron]

I will take a look at his myspace, thanks!

[ijsschots]

Does anny one have the verry original version of this song? Were can i find it?!?!

This is also a nice version!! Good job!

[yinyangron]

The song was made famous by Leonard Cohen, try to find his version. It wasn't written by him by the way.

[ijsschots]

I know that version but Leonard Cohen hasn't write the song,two other people did. Maybe they wrote it for Leonard!

Have you heard the version of "16 Horse Power"? I think that's the best version ever!!!!

[piafedith]

Thanks for this song of Anna Marly

[yinyangron]

It'a pleasure, I have always loved this song.

It is how life sometimes can be for people.

[piafedith]

Thanks for this song of Anna Marly

[peteragain]

Most people will agree it is a beautiful song, and I am no exception. I like your version. Your voice fits the song very well. I checked your site as well. Some nice thoughts about some different things.

[yinyangron]

Yeah I like this song because it stands for people who fight against those who oppress them. People should be and live as free human beings. Peace to you wherever you go and live! cheerio Ron

[albertofender]

muy muy buena versión y cover, thanks for this song, Cohen

[yinyangron]

gracias, thanks for your very nice words!

[yinyangron]

Hi Zoe, I personally like this song because it is about the oppressed fighting the oppressors.

[lareinawilleke]

Zoe is the dogname...

[billyarseface]

nice. cohen did not write this song though.

[yinyangron]

Thanks for the compliment. And yes, you're correct. The Partisan was written by A.Marly/H.Zaret/Bernard.

I just assumed it was written by Cohen himself. Greetings from Ron

[SanSoussy]

I like your version man, your spirit and your soul.

[yinyangron]

Hi, thank you for the comment. This is a song wich you need to sing with your heart and soul. It is a song about oppression and the fight for freedom wich all people desire. And at the end of ther dark hidden war they will come out of the shadows, as the song says. A great song written by leonard cohen. greetings from Ron.

[3stival]

yep, same ;)
