Although Leonard Cohen performed "Do I Have To Dance All Night" frequently in concerts during the 1976 and 1980 tours (the 1976 and 1980 versions differ; my video for the 1980 version is found at www.youtube.com it was released only as a seven inch single, originally recorded at a 1976 concert in Paris, for sale in Europe. (During the 1980 Tour, a different version of this song was performed. Both versions can be heard at 1heckofaguy.com There was, of course, no official video. But now - well, there still isn't an official Do I Have To Dance All Night video. In my ongoing crusade to introduce others to this wonderful, under-appreciated gem of a song,however, I have cobbled together a pastiche of Cohen-associated photos and clips that kinda sorta fits the music from my own copy of that 1976 record. (A Reference Key is available at 1heckofaguy.com I offer this advice to those in the audience: 1. The optimal viewer mindset is thinking of this not as a music video but rather something to watch while listening to a fine, semi-funky Leonard Cohen tune.

A little compliation Sassi and I made discussed together. SPECIAL THANKS to SassiTheKitty for putting all these together, without her, this video would've sucked.

We bring you CELLO WARS! A result of 6 months of production...our most ambitious undertaking by far! Why Star Wars Cello? Because of our unending admiration of George Lucas, John Williams, and the most EPIC movies and film score ever created. The idea originated when Tel Stewart was editing THE CELLO SONG here: www.youtube.com As a joke he decided to add light sabers to Steven Sharp Nelson's bow during the outtakes. Fans cried out for more. Al van der Beek and Steven Sharp Nelson storyboarded the song and the video concept while they were scouting locations for MOONLIGHT www.youtube.com But it was Steven Sharp Nelson's son Eli (6) that was the true inspiration for the project -- his enthusiasm for Star Wars, light sabers, and watching his daddy wield one while playing cello fueled the project continually. We announced CELLO WARS on September 19, 2011 thinking we'd be able to deliver on our promise within a few weeks.
