Cohens Stimme ist auf absolutem Tiefstand, und John Bilezikjians Oud kommt am exotischsten r\u00fcber. Sicherlich hatte der Song einen Einfluss auf Bob Dylans \u201eEverything Is Broken\u201c, das ein \u00e4hnliches Thema hat und im gleichen Jahr geschrieben wurde. Gemeinsam geschrieben von Cohen und Sharon Robinson, eine seiner Background S\u00e4ngerinnen auf seiner 1979 \u2013 1980er Tournee, stellt \u201eEverybody Knows\u201c einen Song voll bitters\u00fc\u00dfem Zynismus dar, wobei Cohens Stimme hier tiefer denn je den Essig liefert, der das von Jennifer Warnes Background-Gesang und der Oud von John Bilezikijan vers\u00fc\u00dft wird. Durch eine lange Liste dessen was \u201ejeder wei\u00df\u201c, malt Cohen ein trostloses Bild der Gesellschaft (\u201eDer alte Black Joe pfl\u00fcckt immer noch die Baumwolle f\u00fcr deine B\u00e4nder und Schleifen\u201c). Gleichzeitig ist es eine Art Abbild seines Liebeslebens (\u201eEs gab einfach so viele Menschen, die du ohne deine Kleider treffen musstest\u201c). Trotz all der ungeschminkten Verzweiflung hat der Song doch etwas merkw\u00fcrdig Tr\u00f6stliches an sich. Anstatt einfach nur auf eloquente Art sein eigenes Ungl\u00fcck zu verzeichnen, wie er es in der Vergangenheit getan haben k\u00f6nnte, schmeichelt Cohen seinem Publikum, indem er ihm den Eindruck vermittelt, dass sie seine schwer erarbeiteten Einsichten mit ihm teilen. \u201eEverybody knows\u201c, singt er, eindeutig sein Publikum mit einschlie\u00dfend und indirekt diejenigen ausschlie\u00dfend, die \u201eunseren\u201c Standpunkt nicht teilen. Anstatt einfach nur Bericht zu erstatten, nimmt er uns in den Kreis der Eingeweihten auf: \u201eWir wissen dies, auch wenn die anderen es nicht wissen\u201c, ist die Andeutung, die er damit macht. Der Song ist au\u00dferdem auch bemerkenswert, da Cohen zum ersten Mal Keyboard auf der Platte spielt, zweifelsohne eine Widerspiegelung seines neuen Songwriting-Stils.<\/p>\n<p>Auf\u00a0 Cohen-Live ist eine Version von \u201eEverybody knows\u201c sp\u00e4ter w\u00e4hrend des nordamerikanischen Teils der 1993er Tournee aufgenommen worden, und zwar im Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver am 29 Juli. Die Einspielung ist im Allgemeinen der auf \u201eI\u02bcm Your Man\u201c sehr \u00e4hnlich, obwohl Cohen ein paar geringf\u00fcgige \u00c4nderungen bei der Hauptgesangslinie vorgenommen hat und die Band auf der B\u00fchne h\u00e4rter zu spielen scheint und weniger flie\u00dfend swingt als im Studio. Die Studioversion bleibt die stimmigere der beiden Versionen des Songs.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>(ENGLISH VERSION)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>A sarcastic song with a pop melody reminiscent of disco sound, which Cohen co-wrote with singer Sharon Robinson. Cohen&#8217;s voice is at an all-time low, and John\u00a0 Bilezikjian&#8217;s\u00a0 oud comes across most exotically. Certainly, the song had an impact on Bob Dylan&#8217;s &#8222;Everything\u00a0 Is\u00a0 Broken&#8220;, which has asimilar theme and was written in the same year. Co-written by Cohen and Sharon Robinson, one of his backing singers on his 1979\u20131980 tour, &#8222;Everybody\u00a0 Knows&#8220; is a song fullof bittersweet cynicism, with Cohen&#8217;s voice here delivering the vinegar sweetened by Jennifer Warne&#8217;s\u00a0 backing vocals and the oud by John\u00a0 Bilezikijan.\u00a0 Through a long list of what &#8222;everyone knows,&#8220; Cohen paints a bleak picture of society (&#8222;The old Black Joe still picks the cotton for your ribbons and bows&#8220;). At the same time, it&#8217;s a kind of likeness of his love life (&#8222;There were just so many people you had to meet without your clothes&#8220;). Despite all the unvarnished desperation, the song has something strangely comforting about it. Instead of\u00a0 simply experiencing his own misfortune in an eloquent way, as he might have done in the past, Cohen flatters his audience by giving him the impression that they share his hard-earned insights with him. &#8222;Everybody\u00a0 knows,&#8220;hesings, clearly including his audience and indirectly excluding those who do not share &#8222;our&#8220; point of view. Instead of\u00a0 simply\u00a0 reporting, he takes us into the circle of initiates: &#8222;We know this, even if the others don&#8217;t know,&#8220; is the insinuation he makes with it.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The song is also notable, as Cohen is playing keyboards on the record for the first time, no doubt a reflection of his new songwriting style.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>A version of &#8222;Everybody\u00a0 knows&#8220; was later recorded during the North American part of the1993 tour at the Orpheum\u00a0 Theatre in Vancouver on July 29. The recording is generallyvery similar to that on&#8220;I&#8217;m\u00a0 Your Man&#8220;, although Cohen has made a few minor changes to the main vocal line and the band seems to play harder on stage and swinglessly than in the studio. The studio version remains the more coherent of the two versions of the song.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>2<\/em>008 Live in London<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Leonard Cohen - Everybody Knows (Live in London)\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xu8u9ZbCJgQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Live in Dublin 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Leonard Cohen - Everybody Knows (Live in Dublin - edited)\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8IfmiKnZi3E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1988 Live on KRCW Everybody Knows ==&gt; Song on I\u02bcm Your Man, 1988; Cohen Live, 1994; More Best Of, 1997; Live in London, 2009; Greatest Hits, 2009, sowie auf der als 2011 nochmals unter dem \u201eReclam All Time Best\u201c ver\u00f6ffentlicht; Live in Dublin, 2014.
