Re: any Cohen song you DONT like!?!?
It may sound odd, but I really don't like Chelsea Hotel #2. It was so interesting hearing the #1 version, which I really like, and #2, with its harsh last verse, seems so nasty and vicious. Though the way he does it on Live in Dublin is good- the last verse sounds like 'I don't even think of you that often' is a self-mocking lie.
On other peoples' picks, I really like Diamonds in the Mine as a song, though I think in all the extant versions of it he is drugged up to the eyeballs and/or very drunk, which I'm not so keen on. I also like Jazz Police and Fingerprints.
