Songs referencing Leonard Cohen

Post by Doctor Bob »

Does anyone know of songs by other artists that make reference to Leonard in the lyrics?

The obvious example I can think of is the song "Pennyroyal Tea" by Nirvana, were Kurt Cobain sings the lyric:

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally


Any other examples out there??
