I too think a great deal with Cohen is surviving depression. Basically he sais you have to keep reality out (dug) from time to time, without loosing it totally (connection with his children). I thin that`s the art in it. Not easy to work out if you`re caged into a day to day job you gotta do for living.
Wow, "Ring the bells that still can ring, Forget your perfect offering, There is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. That's how the light gets in." That's my favourite too Leonard! I would truly love to sit down near a fire with him and just talk.
Such a down to earth and brutely Honest man. Has born an old spirit, as is Bob Dylan, and John Lennon , as many others who don't come to mind just now.
How many men his age are so brutally honest about sex. He shows much respect toward the interviewer even when she doesn't drop his mental health issues.
He truly knows about essence of life, his way included besides expression of his poetical talent also sensuality and depression - all that made him a personality of great maturity and wisdom -I wish to accomplish that too
Commend the lady for being as constructive as to interview Leonard Cohen. We may feel we understand him or his work more deeply than she, but why the vitriol? She isn't offending him; not being too tabloid. it could be said she is simply doing her job. Question hatred.

@AbbbasGirl she is a personal friend of his, Valerie Pringle, he respects her a great deal as a Canadian reporter, a Canadian approach.

I would do anything to have a conversation with Leonard Cohen and Townes Van Zandt at the same time.

"You must become the ocean or you'll be seasick everyday." Leonard Cohen
He must've become the ocean for this interview, cause she is damn nauseating, especially in part 1.

@welshuser Pure Cohen baby. He was a poet and an intellectual before becoming a musician.
