This song brings me tears every single time. To my elders who were partisans that had to leave their families to fight fascism.

N'oublions pas, cette superbe chanson est française, écrite par Emmanuel d'Astier de la Vigérie dit "Bernard" et la musique d'Anna Marly écrit en 1943, à Londres.

For the people who keep comparing her version with Cohen's one: the whole thing is much more complex. Those are two different interpretations and visions. With a protest song you have two ways of transmit your message. You can sing it privileging the universality of the song by making it impersonal: this vision is impactful if you want to creat a powerful movement around the song, an enthusiasm for your cause and a feeling of unity. That's why national anthems are most of the time performed this way. And this is also Joan's choice for "The Partisan". Cohen chose the other possibility: individualizing the song to turn it into an individual experience. You're not impactful because you creat enthusiasm and unity but because you transmit emotions to your audience. You're telling a particular story. It's also powerful. But those two visions have different goals and different outcomes.

Mélina Charlet pourquoi utiliser vous le prénom de cette dame et le nom de monsieur Cohen,, L interprétation de cette composition n a que de la valeur musicale interprétée par Léonard Cohen
This feels like a high-riding epic, a wartime tragedy that celebrates a rebellious spirit. Cohen performed it as if he himself was the soldier, recounting the events. Both interesting perspectives.

Beautifully sung Greek in the final stanza. In 1973, while the country was under the Junta. A terrific gesture of international solidarity by an American performer to a Parisian audience.

Really. A gesture that she repeated many, so many times, in so many ways for more than half a century, sometimes risking her life and freedom . Joan Baez is a beautiful and brave soul indeed, a bodhisattva.

the lyrics of the end of the song is : anemi anemi sfurizoun ,stous tafous anemi sfurizoun,erxete i eleftheria , kai emeis mazi apo ta skotadia (she sings in Greek.) and it means (Oh, the winds, the winds are blowing. Thru the graves the winds are blowing. Freedom soon will come. Then we'll come from the shadow.)
@johnevans3886 жыл бұрын
Apparently the original French version ends with "Freedom soon will come We will be forgotten! We'll enter the shadows." Sadly prophetic because the involvement of French forces in WWII is so often glossed over.

The authors of this song are Anna Marly and Hy Zaret. "La complainte du partisan" is another song with music written by Anna Marly. You can find both songs in KZbin, in their original recordings.

BELLÍSIMO TEMA. Lo escuché por primera vez en la década del 70, cuando era niña todavía. Aún cuando no sabía de qué se trataba, la voz prístina de Joan Baez, me llegó al alma. Hoy supe que hay otras versiones, Cohen entre otros. Aunque también es hermosa voz, y suena más triste y lastimera acorde a la letra ; me quedo con la fuerza de Joan. 💖

This song is actually an adaptation from "La complainte du partisan", written in London during 1943, by Emmanuel D'Astier de la Vigerie (called "Bernard" in the French Resistance) and Anna Marly.

I usually love Joan Baez' singing but this sounds too pretty for the content of the song. I prefer Leonard Cohen's rendition.

Okay. I again find this powerful. With the content and all. The more intense delivery is different, but justified - not an improvement, just a different take (last line added 2 years after originally commenting)

Disagree. To me this version sounds panicked and erratic. Much how I would feel when living in or fleeing a war zone
