Ara Duzian - First We Take Manhattan (Leonard Cohen)

[@DELTAZUR]

I'm a long time fan of Leonard Cohen works, and I just discover this hypnotic cover. Congratulations for the touch you've brought to this song, it's great. The arpeggios you've put on the chords are exellent, I'd like to know them. Bravo!

Thank you for listening and commenting !

A velvet masterclass-interpretation of a most beautifully violent tune. Your chorus I find sublime. I'm surprised here I do not miss the brutally clean lead guitar at all.

[@AraDuzian]

Thank you for listening and for your comment.

[@AlRobot3]

My dads favourite song. Excellent rendition. Guitar sounds like a good one.

[@Ron71997]

I see that I commented 5 months ago - when I first heard this cover....gotta say, the second time hearing it ...just gets better.

[@AraDuzian]

Thanks for listening again Ron !

🎼this is such a touching version of this important 80's song. New dimension and to me underlines it's intention. Gorgeous! I am moved to tears, I absolutely love your meaningful singing and this calm guitar picking.

[@AraDuzian]

Thank you. And thank you for sharing your music!

@@AraDuzian 🎼🍀👻

[@MayhemJack]

This was haunting, Mr. Duzian! You have moved me and stopped me in my tracks. Your voice is so large that it calls upon echoes of other voices in my head-even Mr. Cohen's itself. And then the song ends but the music has not stopped, for I am still singing, mumbling myself to tears. From a glance of your channel, I see you've also covered a lot of my old favorites. Looks like I'm gonna be here a while. *You've a new fan. I just hope I have enough gin.*

[@AraDuzian]

Thank you for your appreciation and your comment. Enjoy !
