Billy Bragg "O Freedom"

Stretching the definition of "artists inspired by Cohen" here as I've never heard Billy Bragg quote Leonard as an inspiration, but he's certainly inspired by Bob Dylan, and everyone knows all Cohen fans are Dylan fans, and vice versa, so it's on topic for here, really. Anyway, just came across this video on youtube and thought it was a good one to share:

I know you were baiting me with the nasal-whining-hippie comment, but how can I resist? Now you are going so far as to shill for a communist! There may be no hope for you Tim....

You might wish to buy a DVD featuring Billy Bragg at last year's International Brigades Memorial Trust meeting on the South Bank, London.
