Saw him at "A Day on the Green" in Bowral was a truly amazing experience. Have been to many many concerts but when he recited this, the entire venue was quiet, it is a truly awe inspiring thing to be in a completely silent 3000 strong crowd.
@cjob413 How about the silence of a 20,000 strong crowd at Hanging Rock, Victoria on Saturday 20th Nov,2010, I wanted to weep, the scene was to amazing to describe, this man is simply a genius, a God amoungst musicians, he truly takes you to another place within your soul. Thank God for a man with such talent to have such a huge audience in country Victoria in the palm of his hand. The hills, the rock, the moon, AND Leonard Cohen - what a mix.
saw him last night in london 02 ]Leonard i met you once in Oslo together with your son Axel and Marianne You have given me so much in my life Thankyou ...Let's try not to forget to pray for the angels...
"You handled me like meat..." very pornographic verses, draws very vivid pictures in your brain, and audience reacts appropriately, "I loved you when you opened like a lily in the heat", here we go again. What a lady's man, that LC!
I had just come back from seeing him here in Toronto and this reading of A THOUSAND KISSES DEEP moved me to tears!!! I felt such an assortment of emotions throughout the entire evening. BLESS LEONARD COHEN!!! I
what to say just speechless what an amazing ,masical voice,what a poem great.

I saw him in at The Ceasar's Palace in Vegas (of all places) a year ago. You can hear a pin drop when he said this monument of a poem. What a night!
