Um, to my knowledge, Cohen never captained the USS "Enterprise".... maybe in one of those mad alternate universes, where Justin Bieber is considered a pioneer in music and Waits is just another drunk in an alley, but not in this one.

Well I wasn't really asking who is more musically talented, rather who people prefer

Cohen. I'm a fan of Dylan's, and have spent many an hour enjoying his music... But Cohen's music just hits you like a freight train. Albums like Songs of... and Songs of Love and Hate are incredibly powerful.

Cohen: a level ahead of dylan in poetry.
Dylan: beautiful lyricist and extremely cool.
