Huzzahs & Hallelujahs
Sometime yesterday, the 50,000th viewing of the Heck Of A Guy video of the 1976 iteration of “Do I Have To Dance All Night” by Leonard Cohen took place.
To properly celebration this event, I recommend – yep, another viewing of both versions of this wonderful song.
Leonard Cohen’s 1976 “Do I Have To Dance All Night” with Laura Branigan
Leonard Cohen’s 1980 “Do I Have To Dance All Night” (Amsterdam Concert
The “Do I Have To Dance All Night” Saga
For more information about the song itself, see “Do I Have To Dance All Night” – The Best Leonard Cohen Song You’ve (Probably) Never Heard. The stories behind the videos can be found at Do I Have To Dance All Night – The Leonard Cohen Video You’ve Never Seen (the 1976 version with Laura Branigan) and Leonard Cohen’s Other “Do I Have To Dance All Night” (1980 Version) Gets Its Own Video (the 1980 version).









































Congrats!! What a song, what a milestone. Maybe it’ll be a track on the next album.
From your lips to Leonard’s ears
Oh how I’d love to hear it in Leonard’s deep, wise, older and (to my mind)better voice. A dream.
Just brilliant Allan.
