During the Leonard Cohen World Tour, 3 songs were played for the 1st time: Feels So Good (AKA The Other Blues Song), The Darkness, and Lullaby. While each was sung only a few times, multiple versions exist with different lyrics and arrangements.
A summary of each song's performances and lyrics with videos and mp3s for downloading is now available at these posts:

In celebration of Leonard Cohen’s 75th birthday, September 21, 2009, Heck Of A Guy offers a video pastiche of favorite scenes featuring the singer-songwriter/poet/icon.
One of my favorite Cohen songs, "Do I Have To Dance All Night" was performed many times in concerts but was never released in the US
As part of my crusade to popularize this song, I've cobbled together 2 videos - one for the semi-funky 1976 version with Laura Brannigan and one for the 1980 more gypsy, less disco version - that kinda sorta fit the music.
The videos can be found at
Both videos include links to keys to the sources of the clips and the identities of the backup singers and others who are featured.
The complete story of "Do I Have To Dance All Night" is available at The Best Leonard Cohen Song You've Never Heard (Probably).
