Leonard Cohen - Too Old.wmv

Armelle Brusq is a young French artist filmed a 52 min documentary in Spring 1996 on Mt. Baldy in which Leonard Cohen read his poem: Too Old. In this documentary Cohen tells about his life, his memories and why he chose to live at the Zen Center. Now he's on tour again. I saw him a couple of month ago: his performance was much more than just a concert, it was a real spiritual happening.

So eloquent...I dont even need to say that...

I only really need to say how much this wonderful man means to me.i love him in 'body and thought'

@sweetgypsywife - He did to me all my life. Many years i played his music in the streets of Europe. I never went to one of his concerts. After his years with Roshi het started to tour again. I thought maybe this is my last chance so I travelled to Germany.

It was amazing, not just a concert. It was a real happening. Seven times his audience called him back to the stage. To many of us It became the best concert ever! As long as i live i'll never forget his kind of quiet human dignity.

I love how helpful Leonard defines "puke."

@youtenpatube I met him briefly many years ago - after that time when ever I was depressed I would eat blueberry blintzes. Never made the connection until a year or so ago that he was the reason - I'm so thankful he was in the world at the same time I was...

Great poem.

I just newly discovered Leonard a few years ago, maybe some day I will see him at one of his last concerts.

Goodbye Leonard it was nice meeting you!
