  • i hate leonard cohen..he dont shine dylans shoes

    and to show unclassy he is...he says to judy we sang this in a hotel room..all night long

    bragging he banged judy...what a classless douche...and watch her reaction to him saying it...she didnt appreciate his classless comment

    leonard cohen=super over rated RIP

  • Sacré duo !

  • Thats lovely but Judys harmonies r a bit adlib- like she is doing it on the fly. Leonard is superb and natural.

  • @blahblahblah85 i agree

  • 'We sang it all night.' :p

  • i like her outfit.

  • Check out Nemo Shaw's slower aced version - just out! Beautiful!

  • C'est la troisième plus belle de toutes les versions de cette plus belle chanson du monde à mes yeux ; les deux premières, presque à égalité, sont d'une part la version originelle par Leonard Cohen et d'autre part celle(s) où Serena Ryder chante en compagnie d'Adam Cohen...mais pour l'interprétation et la voix sublime de Serena.J'aimerais tant que Leonard et Serena l'interprètent ensemble...après je pourrai mourir serein....

  • I love to listen to Leonard Cohen, and I especially love this song....Mmm. :)

  • This is absolutely fantastic.

  • Their voices blend marvelously.

  • <3 had a dream that was soundtracked by this song last night <3 I've been singing it all day

  • Cohen's greatest song.

  • i watched this on tv when it first aired. i'm so glad to see & hear it again.

    this may be the most beautiful love song ever written.

  • Wonderful song, but i am looking for this song sang by Roberta Flack. I can't find it on YouTube, can someone give me a hint??

  • Oh, Jamie....

  • Oh, was für ein tolles Duo!

    Oh, what a wonderful Duo!

  • darn its so beautiful i just cried through this song...

  • Just say goodbye... and let me walk away... there's nothing more to say....

    Lovely version of this early Cohen song!

  • Charles...this is for you...you always had a place in my heart ever since i first knew you from1969...your daughter was always greatly loved because of you..rest in peace

  • haha, not exactly, that was a leonard's joke. Someone long ago said 'i have seen the future of r'n'r' after his first springsteen concert.

  • someone long ago said "I have seen the future of rock and roll and it is not Leonard Cohen"

  • Cohen was a folk musician, not a rock musician. He wrote profound and genuine folk songs with layers of personal meaning.

  • @Nilsosmar I'm sure glad I attributed that quote to someone else.....

  • "Sang it all night"? Cohen, you sly dog.

  • Greetings from Beta-HiFi. Glad you are watching!

    For a better picture, watch the video in "High Quality." Click on the HQ box at the bottom of the viewing screen.

  • FROM sevfest:

    Leonard Cohen ~ Magnificent

    Judy Collins ~ Beautiful & Enormously Talented got to see Judy at The Count Basie Theatre in New Jersey a few years back (my ex won the tickets on the radio) one of the best things she ever did for me LOL GREAT SHOW....

  • FROM jackbox1971:

    Leonard has never been a great vocalist, and Judy is maybe too good for pop, but when they sing this song together, it really seems to work.

    FROM lizlogs: This is just lovely: their voices just 'work' together and the harmonies complement the song.

    Saw Judy in Glasgow earlier this year, and am going to see Leonard in Belfast in July.

  • FROM muizeekphanitic: Fantastic! What a delight to see both Judy and Leonard in their musical heyday, singing together with exquisite harmony. Having heard both of them (recorded separately by each), it was really nice to hear them do it together, live on stage. Interesting to know that Judy was a close friend of Leonard was helped expose him to the national stages and audiences. This is a really good tune that ranks up with the rest of his fine catalogue. Judy's voice always pretty. Thanks! A+

  • FROM arthur11uk: Still a beatutiful song with touching words after so many year and heard so many many times repeat and repeat. Great to watch them singing together. Thanks betahifi. One feels better by listening to this when down.

  • FROM lanisongbird: Ok, it might be 32 years after this video was made, but I'm still jealous as h*ll of Judy Collins. *I* want to sing with Leonard Cohen!!!

    FROM mighty tiny: Beautiful song by a great songwriter.

    By the way, just now noticed something that hadn't occurred to me before: that the young Leonard Cohen looks A LOT like the young Dustin Hoffman. :)

  • Listen to more of Judy Collins singing Leonard Cohen songs on the "Wolfgangs Vault" web site. There is a terrific 1973 San Francisco concert there, with Judy singing, "Suzanne" and "Famous Blue Raincoat," accompanied only by her guitar. Log onto Wolfgangsvault and hear why Judy is such a renowned interpreter of Cohen's songs and lyrics.

  • FROM chrishovel: i like both individual versions, but together it doesn't work- for me - the voices clash.

    FROM kittalia:

    I felt the same way initially - absolutely, a clash -I experienced trying to listen to either/or. Was disorienting until I sat back without trying to force it and viola! I heard what Judy Collins is doing - its amazing musical craftsmanship! And then you hear the brilliance of it!

  • FROM johnandrew002:

    What a treasure trove of beautiful music by Judy and Leonard. Thanks ever so much for posting them. I have loved their music for over 40 years.

    FROM rychlewski: dammit! Why was i born in 84 !!! i missed all the good stuff : P

    FROM mbishop76: Give Thanks! Great Joy To Man and G-D! Leonard Cohen yet walks the earth with us. And yet Sings

  • FROM lastchancers:

    Lovely lovely song. Sadly, I found myself wishing Judy took a step or two back from the microphone. No offense against her, I guess I just really associate this song with Leonard's voice as I've never heard her cover of the tune. Nevertheless, it's a decent version. To the original poster, thank you for posting it.

    FROM hermungus: I'm so proud to have seen him in his absolute heyday... when I was so tremendously in love with his music. (of course I still am).

  • FROM idyssseus:

    Well, it's pretty clear who has the "better" voice, but nonetheless, every time I hear Leonard Cohen playing with anyone else I fall even more deeply in love with his words and sentiments. What a genius he is, and Judy Collins is perfect here too.

    FROM cailiplus2: I was 10 years old, more than two decades ago, and I fell full force in love with LC, and especially this song. It has endured me far longer than any other loves of mine. Superb!

  • FROM idysseus: Well, it's pretty clear who has the "better" voice, but nonetheless, every time I hear Leonard Cohen playing with anyone else I fall even more deeply in love with his words and sentiments. What a genius he is, and Judy Collins is perfect here too.

    FROM ralle49:

    Ich finde beide Musiker einzeln sehr gut aber beide zusammen,haben sie mich wirklich überrascht.Toll.

  • FROM vsibirsky: It was lovely to see them together and hear this rendition of the song. Leonard C is an amazing poet, songwritter and author but let's be honest...He is not the greatest singer in the world and never was. That Judy can somehow weave amazing harmony around is between monotone and off pitch singing is an incredible feat! Thanks for posting this.

    FROM southpet:

    Wow! I adore this song. I love Judy Collins! I saw her concert in Oct, 2006 in LA she was perfection!

  • FROM Marleyrae69: my master of canadian poetry and music...thanks betahifi.

    FROM beatnikbipsy: Gosh, even her speaking voice is so beautiful:-)

  • From mariellecharmaine: Thank You for a great clip. This has a very sweet introduction by Judy and great interaction between old friends Judy and Leonard. Its lovely to see both a female and male perspective of the song.

    FROM OM92555: This is the first time that I have heard them sing this song together. Such beautiful harmony. I always thought that tha song was about Judy. She is such a remarkable woman.

    FROM PalomaVD: Gracias!!!

    Es todo un hallazgo y un placer encontrar esta canción.

  • ******BEAUTIFUL SONG*******
