My favourite Leonard Cohen song. He will never be forgotten in this household.

You are right Michael - he does silence down the organ and it makes the song stand so incredibly strong with Leonard's voice and guitar only. This is such a powerful and in a way frightening song. Mr Cohen is the greatest!

Probably my favourite of all Leonard's songs....some achievement. One thing I'm not sure of is why it's sped up when played live. Loses a little of its drama....still brilliant though.

I’m assuming it’s because of the guitar playing, sustaining that style of picking can be very trying. I know I couldn’t do it, my hand would cramp lol.

@@bronsonjohnson9019 Indeed. To make it smooth and flowing without mistakes is tricky. To my knowledge he only used this picking pattern on three songs - this one, Love Calls You By Your Name and The Stranger Song. It must have taken some effort to learn. Perhaps he didn't want to overuse it.

I’m glad he didn’t to see he was still performing this one in his seventies. He seems to really be honouring where it came from here.

It sends shivers down your spine. Loves brutal ignorance on petty seductive strategies. It commands: "Conquer your pain of loss, climb on your tears and be silent, grow stronger and move on to wherever I lead you. Serve me, in silence and solitude. I will come to you, like a thief in the night, in need for your love. But then I am always ONE. Out of your control and out of my own control. Nothing commands me. Not even my own will. It is your flesh that I wear, Frightening my love, but true."
