Honestly, I think John Cale's cover is the definitive version. It's so heartfelt, and so very different from Cohen's original sardonic vision. I completely destroyed my roommates' perception of the song when I played Cohen's version, which, in my opinion, remains the best, if not the most recognizable or relatable.

Leonard Cohen wrote and sang the original; all the rest are just covers of his song.
