I met Leonard Cohen once, at Canter's in Hollywood. The other day, while driving, I heard on the radio about the death of some celebrity and it occurred to me... the day I hear that Leonard has passed, will bum me out immeasurably.
@yeahsee33 Know how you feel....Its happened to me more than once...now Im older and wiser I realise what a fool I was.Certain chances never come again...now I just go and enjoy..Would love the chance to see Leonard.... Couldn't afford to go to Glastonbury when he was there and its only a few miles up the road..
I was sharing a cup of Pinot Noir with my lady when he played this at The Theater Of The Clouds at The Rose Garden in Portland, OR.... great new song that was part of a great show.
Thank you SO MUCH, Mz. Bridger :)!!! I don't hear the organ as gospel, but as blues... and LOVE it! What I love, too, is how Leonard is seizing these days to continue to grow in other and new directions... pushing his creativity more and more. It's wonderful!
I need this one on CD to turn it really loud in my car radio, when I'm speeding along nightly country roads with opened windows and the freezing wind in my face.
Thank you so much for this great video, dear uploader... I can't wait for the new CD, but in holland....well I can wait a few more monthts!:-(.
I totally adore this man, what a voice!
Blessed Be;

Just those crushing little obsevations that tell us so much about ourselves. Effortful genius. Surely there's a Nobel for him.

heard this at Leonard's concert in Christchurch last night. Just amazing blues. Reminds me of another king of cool - Bob.
Magical night, just three rows from the front., dead centre. Thank you Leonard.

Nice, thank you so much.
The "gospel" sound of that organ is kind of annoying though. The keyboard player is talented all right, but it just doesn't fit in.
