A terrific arrangement and performance of one of Cohen's loveliest pieces! I'm frequently surprised at how variations on Cohen's work can be completely different from his originals yet have their own charm and power. (Much like Rufus Wainwright's campy/vampy rendition of Everybody Knows is so cool.) Here, though, the melancholy of the original has been replaced with what can only be described as joy. Odd, but it works.

Ha sido muy interesante escuchar a Sting interpretando música Celta. Es una buena interpretación de un muy bello tema.

The Celtic version is much more better than Leonard Cohen's version!
