On Songs Of Love And Hate. That raincoat he bought out of pure necessity during his first trip to England. Weather was so bad he left for Greece and bought himself a house (on the isle of Hydra) with the famous 'room' immortalized on his second lp Songs From A Room.
Covers:
Bernd Clüver [as Die Zeit geht immer den leichteren Weg]
Albert Hammond [melody of the refrain in When I Need You (see there); case was settled in court, while defendants produced musicologist evidence of the same motiv being used since Schubert's days]
Jennifer Warnes [on lp of the same title with nothing but Cohen covers]
Tori Amos [on that other Cohen tribute Tower Of Song]
Yasmine [as Je Eeuwige Regenjas]
