Marillion`s guitar player Steve Rothery has revealed this is his favourite song on the album. Marillion`s singer/ songwriter Steve Hogarth said in my and also in several other interviews: “Cohen is one of his favourite lyricists and this song was inspired by Cohen’s 2006 poetry collection „Book of Longing“. It includes the lyrics to Nightingale, from Cohen’s 2004 album Dear Heather.” – Steve Hogarth performed Cohen`s „Famous Blue Raincoat“ at Prog Rock Loreley Festival 2018 in Germany.

KW-09-2022: Bon Jovi – today 60 years old – on Leonard Cohen: „It goes without saying that Leonard Cohen’s ‚Hallelujah‘ is one of the most widely recognized and loved ballads in American music. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone over the age of 20 (and even amongst many people under the age of 20) who couldn’t immediately recognize the track by its opening chords”

BON JOVI on LEONARD COHEN:  „It goes without saying that Leonard Cohen’s ‚Hallelujah‘ is one of the most widely recognized and loved ballads in American music. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone over the age of 20 (and even amongst many people under the age of 20) who couldn’t immediately recognize the track by its opening chords”  (promotion-talk in 2015 for the “burning  bridges”-album)

KW-37-2015: Leonard Cohen und … Bon Jovi: Bon Jovi covert gerne Leonard Cohen. Nach „Hallelujah“ covert Jon Bon Jovi mit seiner Band auch „I`m Your Man“. Doch der Song auf deren neuem Album „Burning Bridges“, der auch „Ì`m your Man“ heißt, ist nicht die Coverversion des Leonard Cohen-Songs, den Jovi schon früher live gecovert hat. Es ist ein eigener neuer Song von Bon Jovi.
