During the Leonard Cohen World Tour, 3 songs were played for the 1st time: Feels So Good (AKA The Other Blues Song), The Darkness, and Lullaby. While each was sung only a few times, multiple versions exist with different lyrics and arrangements.
A summary of each song's performances and lyrics with videos and mp3s for downloading are now available at these posts:

Bonus: The World Tour That Might Have Been
Heck Of A Guy offers exclusive videos of the Alternative Leonard Cohen World Tour, our version of how the final US concerts could be given a special, venue-specific twist:
... I never had a chance. I was – and this is the only word that fits – smitten. She was overwhelmingly intelligent and quick-witted, although it took three more years for me to recognize that she was, in fact, much smarter than me, and then another two years to forgive her for that. And, she was surpassingly good-looking, with an unmistakable aura of sexiness.
The unlikely story of how Julie and I fell in love and - 2 husbands, 1 wife, and 2 careers later - spent an outrageously wonderful 20 years together is unlike anything else you will find in this blog, and perhaps anywhere else.
The story starts, appropriately, at This Is How A Love Story Began
"Do I Have To Dance All Night" was performed many times in concerts but was never released in the US.
As part of my crusade to popularize this song, I've cobbled together 2 videos - one for the semi-funky 1976 version with Laura Branigan and one for the 1980 more gypsy, less disco version - that kinda sorta fit the music.
Both videos include links to keys to the sources of the clips and the identities of the backup singers and others who are featured.
The complete story of "Do I Have To Dance All Night" is available at The Best Leonard Cohen Song You've Never Heard (Probably)

Unreleased music from Anjani's performances in Warsaw, Poland and Joe's Pub, New York.
The Anjani Birthday Montage includes selections of favorites, especially songs from the Blue Alert album.
The review of Anjani's Blue Alert album is found at Blue Alert – A Recommendation That Will Make You Want To Kiss Me
Other important Anjani links:
Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen had a fling in the 1960s that, for unspecified reasons, was short-lived, with Cohen instigating the parting.
It was then and is now a complex connection. In 1988, Cohen said, “I’m still very friendly with Joni - I had dinner with her before the tour, and I have the same admiration for her as you do. But I think it was Noel Harrison who came up to me in the LA Troubadour and said ‘How d’you like living with Beethoven?’”
