Another poster said it best: " ... something about this song, I don't know what it is, it's just amazing, everything about it is perfect, nothing can compare to the brilliance of this masterpiece." Leonard and Jennifer. It doesn't get any better than this.
I have been listening to Mr. Cohen's music for many, many years now...I am greateful beyond words for the poetry, the beauty, the wisdom, the sensuality and the humour he has been sharing with us over the past decades. Good Old Lenny, thank you so much and may you live in excellent health for as long as you wish.
I've loved Leonard's music for years and own about every CD he's ever done. This song is one of the darkest he's ever written. He's always seemed to have a mystical bent, but here he's lost any vision of a loving reality that some might call God. As frequently, his meaning is not easy to parse. The 1st and 2nd verses don't jibe. Certainly, Leonard doesn't seem to have a lot of hope these days. I'm reminded that some later verses of 'Hallelujah' were much darker than those recorded earlier.
I have to say I Love Leonard and I find his Voice has aged like *Fine Wine*, can't get enough of him. I just bought his latest DVD,of his tour in London. A great amazing man, such talent song writer, poet and so Romantic. If my husband was still alive he would be the same age as Leonard, an Amazing man with that voice..oooooo, what else could I say. His son is coming is coming into his own, but his singing reminds me his Dad's style..... Great the Legion lives on...
Muchísimas gracias Isisiva por compartirlo. Descubrí a Leonard Cohen cuando era joven cantando "Suzanne" y desde entonces soy un fan incondicicional y siempre que viene a España voy a donde pueda verlo actuar en directo. Con tu permiso lo añado a mis favoritos.
Aquí lleváis el video de su reciente premio Príncipe de Asturias 2011
soul food for me and can i thank mr.docherty ,my english teacher who played us the songs of leonard cohen in english class in school 40 years ago..cheers and i salute you sir..
I´m 16 years, and ive been listening to leonards music 4 all my life, but when i first heard this song, i was listening, speechless, so much love into his voice.
This sounds like a goodbye, a beautifull one and he said that it could be his last album. But if he is going to say goodbye, this is the best way to do it.
Hi, I'm white, I have dyed black hair, (call me an emo if you will) I listen to death metal... But something about this song, I don't know what it is, it's just amazing, everything about it is perfect, nothing can compare to the brilliance of this masterpiece.
All choir voices on "Show Me The Place" were written, arranged and performed by Jennifer on April 25th, 2011 in Los Angeles, recorded by Patrick Leonard.
@jdnewtonii You're welcome. . I am happy I made this video because i can share it with people who will enjoy the song and the video. With people who love Cohen. He is just amazing!
