"So Long, Marianne" by Ravens & Chimes

[gingermop]

Everyone I've sent this to so far has hated it. I really like it though! Apparently, so does Leonard:

"Cohen’s approval came after hearing a Ravens & Chimes cover of his “So Long, Marianne.” The reclusive singer-songwriter — one of Lack’s idols — “e-mailed us about it and said your record is really good,” he says.

At least they're from Montreal...

I like it and I like them too gingermop. It is a pretty faithful/respectful interpretation with a bit extra. But I thought they were a New York band with some association with Arcade Fire (who are Canadian).
