Hi Guys

That's a pretty good clip to go with a great version of that old song. Keep up the good work! I'll be passing this link on to some Cohen fans here in Australia. :)

Sorry, I deleted the post by mistake... But I still agree with what I said before.

The original song is quite sad, but in this vesion you managed to change it completely and still the outcome is AWESOME. I'm not a big fan of covers, but this is definitely one of the best covers, of one of the best songs by one of the greatest singers ever.

Way to go!!!

P.S. When will you release The Stranger Song? Or did I miss it?
