Leonard Cohen Live In London 2009 - Tower of Song

[TueRomanow]

Will never ever ever forget the concert! You really get the feeling of being in the presence of greatness!!

[izapet]

I like how this song calms me

[ducksmasher11]

i can put my 7 month old daughter right to sleep with his voice in minutes..

[nanabexhoeft]

He's got the IT factor plus.

[ristau]

This is a great world!

[danclay530]

3:29......just watch it, if anyone deserves that kind of response, it's this man...

[LuizPecanhaPai]

I feel just like the teacher.

[Monetistic]

An amazing man with an amazing song. Thank you Leonard.

[WeddingHorses]

Love you Leonard Cohen

[WeddingHorses]

If you die Leonard Cohen, I will kill you!!!! Only the good die young, so you will never die.

[spurcross]

He's Tom Waits for the sane and sober...not that sane and sober is isn't over-rated, but still, it's nice to have something easier to grasp than Tom and just as good.

Ahh doo dumdum dum adoo dum dum

[TheElmapa]

Fantastic artist in everyway...no one like him

[lflarry1]

Leonards songs can be a mite gloomy;but ,none the less, Brilliant!

[chantz41]

The Tower of Song...beautifully done! This an incredible video, thank you Leonard!!!

[BlahLalaification]

I cannot imagine the state he will leave us in; I will be heartbroken.

[NikolaySalanMalay]

"I was born like this, I had no choice

I was born with the gift of a golden voice " Is it possible to not love his music and his speech?

I'm 16, and i know, i want to belive that THIS is music and it'll be forever...

[b4ned]

He hits chords of music and chords in the heart. No one can do that like him.

[MrOhjok]

Saw him a number of times.Leonard is the essence of cool. There will never be another. Love this guy.

[Fikmonskov]

I wanna get old like this man...

[tenderitis2]

Mr. Cohen is practically a deity. I would go to church several times a week if he were delivering he service....

[nymanmusic]

fantastic & humorous.

[megadivine111]

I ran in to Leonard once in Los Angeles and a few weeks later in a shoe store in New York.........both times we just stared at each other.....I was too shy to approach .........There was a reverance and I didnt want to invade his privacy. Reverance for who he is not what he became .

[ristau]

best ever.

[Barrymell]

He's a pretty funny guy

[TheChronicsarcasm]

This is now one of my very favorite songs of all time! Thankyou Leonard!

[TheChronicsarcasm]

What an outstanding poet!

[drsick2727]

I hope Leonard lives to be at least 102 years old. We need him!!

[derekclive35]

best dvd i ever bought

[stefani93340]

what an awesome man...my god.. this leaves me speechless.

[patsxskip]

I'd just like to say that every time I hear him it's better than the last, magic

patsxskip

[animalcolm]

this song reminds me of how zen masters used to compose a poem when they were close to death - however, i sure hope mr. cohen will be around for good while yet.

[danclay530]

3:26 that part of the song shows what a loved man he is....yet so so humble with it all! If there is such thing as a superstar in this world then he is it!!

[poollslls]

brilliant concert i went to Birmingham to see the man what a legend

the king of cult.

[1959henk]

MAGNIFICANT!

[johnduthie316]

I just don't get it, so I don't aim to be disrespectful, but what is it that makes people enjoy his music ?

[MrThompsonpj]

Yeah ... how blessed we are to live at the same time as such a real Maestro, in the best sense of the word .....

[patsxskip]

skipxpats What a brilliant, humble man.

[patsxskip]

[streamer992]

Mestari on aina mestari!

[Tazdevil739]

If he wants to see Marianne again;),or just visit scandinavia,Mr Leonard is ALWAYS welcome to stay in my house in norway.For so long time he want...I would be a very happy host to have Leonard here:)

[MrThompsonpj]

I always knew he knows the answer to meaning of life (7.43)

[patsxskip]

@MrThompsonpj I agree do do dum dum skipxpats

[patsxskip]

@MrThompsonpj I skipxpats agree do do dum dum

[MrThompsonpj]

I always knew he knows the meaning of life

[Wormtongue13]

that smile at 3:12 says it all about LC's connection with his music & his audience.

[sudiptakiran]

A true classic!! Unique!!

[lucenbetty1]

sooooooooooooo beautiful !!

[Johnburgessful]

i couldn't afford to catch this show at the o2 and then something fantastic happened...The great man announced new gig dates and he came down to Brighton near where I live and to cap it the date was my 60th birthday!! WHAT A PRESENT!!I could not believe my luck! Best birthday EVER!! Long may he reign.

[ckmady]

One of the greatiest piece of music for me, I love it !

[miatamama08]

I agree with all these posts -- he is the most incredibly sexy, talented, compassionate golden voiced man of the 20th and 21st century! Unfortunately, my husband doesn't care for him, so I have to listen and get worked up alone !!

I love the way he closed his eyes on the best verse "I had no choice, I was born with the gift of the golden voice!" That just gives me me the shivers everytime!

[RockySeven7]

this guy is just phenomenal. I saw 3 concerts of him in gent last week. I lived at the place of the concert. Lucky me!!

[chevacamaro68]

I can´t think of ANYONE that has no kind of stageshow, no pyrotechincs and still hold the audience under a spell for three hours.

If you haven´t seen him.... DO IT!

[vankusikov]

@chevacamaro68

I'm going to do it today in Bratislava :o)))

[dinamojuan]

@chevacamaro68 yess you´re right!! it´s everyone can feel his presence!

[kalemarefrite]

@chevacamaro68 you should check his performance at the isle of wight ,

there were lots of trouble even some rioting, the set the stage on fire during hendrix,

and leonard cohen's comes ons stage and eveybody gets calm

[karl198]

@kalemarefrite

I wonder if Leonard and Jimi hung out backstage

[WallyKatz]

@chevacamaro68 He was in retirement but got scammed by the Bernie Madoff ponzie scam and had to tour again. His lyrics are great and many singers want to sing his songs.

[bezdanblue]

@chevacamaro68

thats because u don't know Đorđe Balašević, which can hold an audience under spell for 4 hours and still wanting more :)

more of a poet then singer, i like that kind :))))

[derekclive35]

@chevacamaro68 i would but at over £200 a ticket its pretty tough! worth it though im sure

[Maxx102]

All I can say is every time I see or hear him perform, I have more respect for him. He shows such compassion and kindness to those who are performing with him by recognizing their performances. And he displays such honest to goodness appreciation to all of the fans.

All of the so called "Musical Superstars" could learn something from Leonard.

[owenzmama]

How on earth can a 75 year old man be this damned sexy...he has no equal

[intelveritas]

@owenzmama Mr. Cool Is Pure Class!

[rsolis46]

Fantastic performance.

[awj1974]

I think that I could listen to this all day, literally.

[vitorsaquette]

please NEVER die mr. cohen, we luv u too much!!

[redwhitch17]

@yeahsee..Mind blowing..Thanks so much for the share..Simply beautiful..

[SlickObi]

Hank Williams is no longer 100 floors above him

[DelfiTC]

"The answer to the mystery is ..." Grande Leo, great! Our friend in our solitude, for eternity ...

[bozidarral]

Quelle magie.Merci infinement.

Bozidar Ralevic,Montreal

[tracam1]

Wonderful.

[horo1984]

No other video encapsulates Cohen's warmth and wit as brilliantly as this one - he had the audience eating out of his hand!

Thanks for the post, xFaq.

[marcus251ful]

I love the acoustic guitars FAB great very artistic

[ramonoski]

A golden voice indeed, mr. Cohen :D

[Boeloet]

Wow...

[HanneloreTaylor]

There is no one like him!!!!!!

[Mariekesone]

@HanneloreTaylor Indeed!!!!...He is one of a kind:-)

[shanna1950]

Magic

[passionnrone]

2009 one of my greatest memories as a belgian roadie.. made him at forest national brussels.. i'm still shivering..

[quitequietquit]

@passionnrone lucky you !!!

[coolfeztboy]

It was 2009 allright.

[Thornbird92]

It was definitely 2009 :)

[xFaq1987]

i really dont know, but the dvd was titled 2009

[EuchridEucrow1]

@xFaq1987

If you read the back of the DVD booklet (where they list the band members), you'll see that it was actually recorded at 02 Arena on July 17th, 2008.

[patsxskip]

@xFaq1987 patsxskip and really, does it matter? What does id the brilliance of THE MAN

[WallyKatz]

@xFaq1987 Here is what I got when I wanted to reply..."LEONARD COHEN LIVE IN LONDON | Democracy | PBS ...replys not accepted...

[WallyKatz]

@xFaq1987 

[kevycanavan]

@xFaq1987 nope. Just "live in london"

[buckleygeneration]

I do believe this was 2008. Thanks, though.

[patsxskip]

@buckleygeneration patsxskip does it really matter?

[buckleygeneration]

@patsxskip Did my comment matter enough for you to respond to it after a whole year?

[patsxskip]

@buckleygeneration patsxskip the comment reaction is only that the music matters more than where it was it's where it's going
