Another incredible song:

That Don't Make It Junk, Leonard Cohen
But this one is downright Dylanesque:

I Tried To Leave You, Leonard Cohen

From wiki: In concert, a prolonged "I Tried to Leave You" was sometimes used to introduce the band. The 14-minute rendition from the 1985 Montreux Jazz Festival even featured extra lines given to the backup singers.

I guess I'm in a Cohen-state-of-mind tonight.
