  • Is he great or what!? Leonard Cohen is a visonary! He has been influencing me a lot lately. I just finished reading his novels "The Favourite Game" and "Beautiful Losers". He is a gifted man. It's hard to describe with words. Oh well, nice to see I'm not the only one that appreciate his work.

  • Hey thanks John..Now I want you to switch to Molson Canadian : )

    Rocket

  • Also get the boys at RetroTown music to give me a free guitar..John somtimes I feel that I am doing all these ads for nothing lol

  • Singing with music is always an option..Right on Bro : )

  • Leonard was meant to be sang by regular people, so you most certainly did not massacre this delightful tune you just proved that real lyrics work sung by real people. 5* Rocket!

    Buddy is like Leonard - accessible, simple and authentic.

    Keep on truckin'! Dave:0)

  • Dave thanks very much man! Real music is really sung by regular people : ) and I agree with you about Buddy..I've though of doing a couple of Buddy songs here myself..but after watching you my friend ..I don't think the Rocketized version would stand up : )

    Rocket

  • Hey thanks very much my friend, I appreciate you stopping by for a listen..Keep your great music coming

    Rocket

  • Did I admit that I didn't know this song? Well, sadly, I did not! THanks for singing it! Otherwise, I probably would have never heard it! I think it's my favorite Leonard Cohen song so far. Don't know how I missed so much of his music down here, but I did. Just goes to show how much I still have to learn! ;) Keep singing, my friend! An original next? ;) Or Boney fingers?;))

  • Hi Nancy I'm glad I twigged you on to a great song : ) Next Is Don Mcleans song "Vincent" Due to a very sincere reguest yesterday..I Try not to do requests. I Did do Boney fingers for you a couple of weeks ago Nancy..when I watched the vid..I was not happy with my cover of it..I will get Boney Fingers posted for you one of these days Nancy : ) Cause your a good friend of mine : )

    Rocket

  • I have the patience of Job...take your time my friend. Meanwhile, I'll be happy with whatever you sing! ;) Cause you're a good friend of mine too! ;)

    ~NAncy

  • Hi Rocket,

    it's a joy to listen to your music in this beautiful Sunday

  • Hey Ben and Family..Thanks very much, I hope your having a great Sunday : )

    Rocket

  • You are so funny. That was a great bit. Great cover, too. I love Leonard. Thanks for this one as it is an all- time favorite of mine and so nice to hear it from you.

  • Thanks so much Maureen glad to give you a smile : ) I think Leonard Cohens lyrics are just un-matched by the rest of the music world..and he's a terrible singer just like me ..lol

    Rocket

  • OMFG the intro is so funny!!!

  • Hey my friend..I'm happy if I can give you a laugh : )

    Rocket

  • lol! Always something crazy!

    I like both beers, but I still prefer Heineken in the winter and Corona in the summer.

    Great job as always, it's always entertaining watching your videos.

  • Bill thanks very much my friend..I am a fan of Heineken and Corona (with a slice of lime) also..Hell there are very few bad beers for sale ..Hope all is going well for you
