I awoke one Morning. This Documentary was on. All of the Artists, Martha, Rufus, Teddy, And Bono Brought the amazing words of Mr Cohen to me in a time that I really Needed Them.

She does not perform the song but becomes the song. By doing so she is no longer just a mere performer or a presenter of someone else's art. This is true artistry.

Sent shivers down my spine. I am actually supposed to write an essay on the traitor character of a book and I am writing while listening to this song. I spent an hour last night crying over the lyrics referring to the Mother... So moving. Just to think that I never had a decent relationship with my own mother...Just amazing...A song can change your life...

Now the great affair is over and whoever would have guessed
It would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressed.
The greater act, the braver act is to leave.
The real mandate was never to stay.

"I could not move to warn all the younger soldiers that they had been deserted from above".............shivers.

Brilliantly expressive cover by this talented artist of a great Cohen poem. The poem captures a struggle often touched upon by Cohen's poems/songs: the quest for the ideal of love versus living with the reality of the love or relationship in which one finds oneself.
