Thanks buddy Ten New Songs, as you'll see below, does have one of Cohen's best songs on it, but it's not really that great as an album. Hopefully I'll get the next album done with soon enough.

Yeah, I've come across that before. Definitely among his best works that, though to be honest I'm no huge fan of Ten New Songs (as we'll find out in about 5 years' time the rate I'm getting these updates in).

It's a song with a really life, as that article points out. You might have seen this before, but this version dates (I think) from his days as a recluse after the Future's release. It's like a dead cheesy, funky euro version, but an interesting clip anyway;
