Voice and acoustic guitar only. So very exquisitely done.
I heard it this afternoon on Radio-Canada, Première, as a tribute to Leonard Cohen for is 80th birthday. It was the diamond in the mine. Soft and shining.

Beautiful cover of Love Itself by Thomas Hellman

"He can love the shape of human beings, the fine and twisted shapes of the heart. It is good to have among us such men, such balancing monsters of love."

Just listened to the show featuring a number of Leonard's songs. Thomas Hellman sang a very moving version of my favourite track from 10 New Songs. Thanks for posting.

Great! 
Hellman said it is the most beautiful song - like if it was among all songs. He certainly really appreciate it, the way he is taking care of it.
I hope some people here who said having difficulties with electronic sound could hear this cover. The guitar feels almost like a harp vs. the casio. They would be pleased.
