You're really ...( 1 day ago by Kyble)
You're really ridiculous, you know that? It's a style question; he's not trying to be the next American Idol. He's showing you how he crafts a song and he obviously does it well considering you're comparing it to the many cover versions.

well, he's an aquired taste. all of his work is like this, more spoken than sung. basically the point is the words are more important than the melody.

What. The. Fuck. Okay, this is a great song but it started out as this?!? It's like making a cake outta dog shit! That guy sounds like a balloon being deflated, and a horse fart at the same time. Love the song... when it's sung well.
Indeed, what IS ...( 14 hours ago by Wheelie55)
Indeed, what IS wrong with his voice? He seems to hit every note and phrase in a very exact manner. Kind of like Dylan or Young.Sorry folks, but I don't think a voice like Bing Crosby's could pull off any of the songs written by the aforementioned greats. Cohen is one of the greatest songwriters of our time and as such, I think he gets to do it however he wants.
Some notes aren't ...( 14 hours ago by R2D2568184)
Some notes aren't on the ball, but I think that's what makes this song unique. I loved the one he did on TV, enough to learn to play and sing the song. I think using profanity to describe the performance very cheap shots. Try choosing other words to be descriptive. Leonard has been singing since I was a small child in the '60's, so I can understand voice slips. Some types of medcations mess up the voice at bad times. So before commenting, go back to 40 years ago and see.
Sorry, R2, but I ...( 13 hours ago by Wheelie55)
Sorry, R2, but I just listened to this twice more, as critically as I could, and I did not hear one note that he did not intend. I'm a vocalist, so I listen intently. Leonard has a very individual style and he doesn't slip much. By the way, I definitely agree with your comment on profanity. Such language is the last resort of the ignorant.

Again, I think he sucks donkey balls. I am sorry for annoying people, but i cannot get over the fact that he sounds like someone with a SERIOUS disability.

That's fine. It's just that that's his style, you know. Though I feel the same way about Bob Dyllan. Or should I say, "BOOUuuuuub, DILLUUUuuuN."

I played it again twice, and I do agree with you that a note was intentional. I hope you have a good time singing too.
