The reason I like Cohen's the best is because of the backing singers. I think this song works best when there's the graceful and harmonious support of the backup singers... it adds to and "load balances" the hugely majestic tones of this song! I think when KD Lang or anyone does it solo, they're taking on too much, and while they might do a fine job, it's a lot for one person to sing. Just my thoughts!
