In 1987, Warnes released an entire album of Cohen's songs called Famous Blue Raincoat before contributing to the hit "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" later that year. Cohen said in a 1993 issue of Song Talk: "I thought that Jennifer Warnes' version in a sense was better because I worked on a different version for her, and I thought it was somewhat more coherent. But I always thought that that was a song you could see the carpentry in a bit. Although there are some images in it that I am very pleased with. Jennifer Warnes singles this out as one of Cohen's best melodies. Leonard is not known for his great melodies, but he actually is a great melody writer," she told Songfacts. If you take the words off and just listen to the melodies, he's really, really good. It's just not known, because we're so distracted by the poetry.

When Jennifer Warnes recorded this 1987 collection of songs by Leonard Cohen, Cohen’s career was in undeserved decline and Warnes, who served as one of Cohen’s back-up singers in the early ‘70s, had been experiencing great success with a series of country-pop and romantic movie-themed adult-contemporary hits. Her duet with Cohen on Joan of Arc is riveting and grandiose.
