What a warm voice. You look like you are thinking as you sing which enhances the poetry of Cohen.That line about the crack that lets the light in makes me think we should say, 'If its not broke we won't know it needs fixing.'
You've manged to capture the very core emotion of this beloved Leonard Cohen classic...have placed a great deal of your own feelings into the presentation,thus taking the song to new hights. Thank you for this most exquisite offering,payotes!
Thank you so much for covering this lovely song. Cohen is a genius and you can't go wrong singing this kind of material!

Great job! "There is a crack in everything, thats how the light gets in." is also one of my favorite Cohen lines!
