Leonard Cohen and others - "So Long Marianne"

Uploaded by Wrongbutton on Aug 19, 2006
Leonard Cohen on an outdoor stage at Indigo bookstore in Yorkville, Toronto, May 13, 2006. Singing "So Long Marianne" with the Bare Naked Ladies, Ron Sexsmith, and Anjani Thomas.
Cohen is a bit hesitant at first and even has to be reminded of the lyrics a few times, but he becomes increasingly enthusiastic and delighted by singing one of his classic songs.

I love this video. They seem to be having so much fun on stage. I love this song too.

no, he does. he says "what is it?" very audibly. It's an old song, and he hasn't performed it in years. I'm sure artistically and personally he's moved past Marianne as well, so why should he remember the lyrics?
The same thing happens with all geniuses. Bob Dylan forgot he wrote Love Is Just a Four Letter Word when he heard Joan Baez sing it on the radio. She had to remind him. It isn't ridiculous at all.

I don't know who are playing the instruments but the singers are Steven Page formerly of the BareNaked Ladies and Ron Sexsmith. The lady who sings near the end is Leoanrd's girlfriend.

I just 'discovered' Leonard Cohen a week ago and I can't stop listening and watching videos. I can't believe I've only just begun this journey. This video makes me burst into tears - the joy. I'm so glad I finally found him, but I feel like I've lost so much time not knowing his music & poetry.
