Dance Me to the End of Love


Just a quick one from me today. Here are a few of versions of one of my favourite songs - "Dance Me to the End of Love" by Leonard Cohen. I had the great privilege of seeing him perform this song live late last year when the great man was in town and it was an incredibly moving experience. These versions I think capture the essence of this beautiful song wonderfully. Enjoy.



The Civil Wars - a really great boy/girl duo doing the rounds at the moment do a beautifully stripped back version of this song.




Madeleine Peyroux gives this song a deliciously jazzy twist.




The man himself - live at the O2 arena in London on his last world tour (which I was lucky enough to see in Sydney).
