Well we can at least value this youtube collection. Marvelous versions from a marvelous songwriter.

Very well done. It doesn't have the hard grating edge Cohen gives it, but I guess there'd be no point in singing the same song in exactly the same way.

He's no LEonard Cohen, but he is true to the spirit. Nice job.

Incredible! Wonderful!! Awe inspiring! I would give it 10 stars is I could.

I would love to have a recording or dvd or both, of John singing all 18 of these songs, and to go to one of his concerts. This poignant cover brought tears to my eyes for the sound and timbre of John's gentle voice, his personae, and his soft-sung delivery. He comes across as a gentle soul who has seen, accepted, and come to peace with a lot of what life can bring.

Hi John ~
I'm not surprized to see you say that and, of course, I take your point. Your video, however, rates a 5! I'm trying to condense my original response to the 500 characters. Tough to do, but I'll try again!
I've never rated a song before... mine was supposed to be 5 STARS!!! I accidentally clicked when I was trying to move it from 4 over to 5. Is there any way to change it!?!

The rating is not important,Lizzie.I understand you did like the video, that's important.The only one who gets 5 stars is Leonard Cohen for me
