Name that song...

Here's that little test of your knowledge, as promised:
https://soundcloud.com/user-113036694/cohen-teaser-1
NB. This is NOT one of those quizzes that come up on the internet surrounded by adverts, where the object is to get you to buy something and the quiz is actually irrelevant. It's just a bit of fun by a Cohen fan like you, with no adverts and no money involved.
Here are some notes to help you (not that you’ll need any help):
All these clips are played by me on a Godin nylon-string guitar. They may not be exactly as you know them from the original soundtrack, but I try to play as close to that as I can.
There are seven Cohen songs for identification here, plus an extra one at the end from another singer/songwriter of the same era. All songs need to be identified. Send your solution to me via PM on the website or to dudley@the-management.co.uk.
On February 1st I’ll dip at random into the correct answers and someone will get something. It was going to be a bottle of whisky, but apparently such things can’t be posted internationally... Never mind, it’ll still be something worthwhile. I'll then post the solution here.
Three more of these to come this year – at the Spring and Autumn equinoxes and Midsummer’s Day. This first one is probably too easy, so the others are likely to be tougher!
