I met Rufus a few years ago
Without doubt, the biggest, most obnoxious, rude, arrogant cunt I have ever had the misfortune to speak to.
Shame really.

Just watched the Xfactor one for the first time
Overproduced to the point of being mawkish. Shame as she has a good voice but it's not a song that lends well to pop-production. I think Buckley was the 'best' version, though I prefer Wainwright... as for Cohens, well he did write a gazillion verses so I guess you can't really say he has a definitive version.

Best version in my opinion is Buckley...
then the writer, Cohen, then Wainright (who otherwise I hate) and if the list is very long then at the very very end will be the X-factor one. Totally destroyed my favourite song the cow/cunt
