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 Branigan that has now been seen by over 20,000 viewers 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).
