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”

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.
