This is a bit sentimental, but I love the song and this rendition by a female singer is pretty good imo (not as good as Leonard Cohen, of course!)

Anyone know who the singer is, I forgot to look.

It's Alexandra Burke, Wend. After Leonard himself of course, I prefer KD Lang singing it :-)

Thanks Rose, never heard of her! Haven't heard KD Lang's version either. Oh dear, you youngsters do put me in my place ;-) :-D

I love that song Wend.

Alexandra Burke won the X Factor in 2008.

Give her a google and you might recognise her.

I love that song too and have it downloaded onto a playlist on my computer, I also put the playlist on to a disc and play it in the car.
