Bob Dylan Surprises with Stunning Leonard Cohen Cover in Montreal

Bob Dylan surprised fans at his concert in Montreal by performing a stunning cover of Leonard Cohen's "Dance Me to the End of Love." This is the first time Dylan has played a Cohen song live since 1988 when he covered "Hallelujah." "Dance Me to the End of Love" is a powerful song that explores the Holocaust, and it became a standard concert opener for Cohen. Dylan's tribute to Cohen adds to his recent trend of city-specific surprise covers during his Rough and Rowdy Ways tour.

The album features a gospel-tinged opening number with Father John Misty and a centuries-old folk standard. The playlist includes some of the album's best songs in conversation with the other artists it references.
