so sad that janis died
-
There is great insight into the thoughts of the man in the DVD "I'm Your Man".
-
am i wrong or does he feel regret over writing this song? i'm pretty sure i read that somewhere. makes me think of another song of his, A singer must die.

There are 8 million stories in The Naked City ...and this is one of them.

@chuck1990bb - I disagree. I think behind that gentle refrain, he's a bit annoyed at the interviewer for interrupting his thought process. That's what I see, anyway. Let the guy finish his sentence!
-
Why can't there be a interviewer who lets him speak his thoughts out all the way? Looking for one - if anyone finds an interview of him where this is the case, let me know please - thanks.
-
His need to be honest is really moving.
-
That interviewer's pure having a go at Leonard!
"I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best - in a way it suggests that you couldn't love anyone the best..." Leonard looks like he's going to kill himself there, just like a big "Oh god, I suck :-("

@12InRuin - i have always thought the same - you can see the process of thinking going on behind his eyes..

" Because time also is a degree in the estimation of love" Fuckin sweet Leonard! he talks like a book absolutely amazing. There is an enormous consciousness behind every word I have ever heard him speak.
