Song of the Week - Famous Blue Raincoat by Leonard Cohen

I have long been a fan of Leonard Cohen and own almost all of his albums. This is one of my favorite Leonard Cohen songs from his 1971 album Songs of Love and Hate. This performance is from 2010, when Cohen was 74 years old. He is still a powerful performer.

Tori Amos does an amazing cover of this song.

I always love it when one of my favorite performers (like Tori Amos) covers a song by another of my favorite performers (like Cohen).
