Leonard talks about his song The Gypsy's Wife and recites his poem 'Slowly I Married Her'. Some good performance footage too. From The Song of Leonard Cohen 1979.

  • He never was married to Suzanne speaking in the common sense of society

  • one of my favorite songs ever!

  • This is good but it sounds like he had somewhat of a bitter marriage. Maybe this is how all married people feel. I do not know because I am not married. Interesting concept.

  • What are his poetry books called?I'd love to get them.They're beautiful

  • This is really moving, especially the pictures of his wife and children...Leonard has shared all his pain and his joys, his journey through life, in his poems and songs, and sometimes I wonder how he has managed to keep himself together enough to sing them at all, as they are so personal..

  • @magiccarpetride231 Hey your English was perfect :)
