quinnyepiphany: imagine being able to write like leonard cohen

snifideezy: There was the Bowie album that year too and the Leonard Cohen album. Plus Rihanna and Bon Iver. Blonde is just not as fun as those albums (it's better yh) but it's also not as good as Nick Cave and Radiohead so I never really got into it

SalamBuatHaters: "I've seen the future, brother; it is murder." ~ Leonard Cohen

nsavidesPRO: There's appeal in using "Everybody Knows" by Leonard Cohen as a theme song. Seems true enough at times and embracing reduces likelihood of despair. Plus, no out-of-reach ideals to distract away from decadence. But what to do about pesky voice that pleads to aim for better things?

harryhew: Excellent question. Yes, Leonard Cohen was a Habs fan. He was on tour in Canada during the Finals in '93 & he would recite the scoresheet from the stage. He also played hockey as a kid. He was a defenceman. Dig his peewee squad. Leonard's the one with the hole in his head.

ChrisdeMercado: Got in last night humming 'Hallelujah' & thinking happy thoughts, & spent the past 15mins tonight sipping wine & listening to Leonard Cohen's original & Jeff Buckley's cover - bursting into tears at the end of the latter when I noted an unexpected coincidence at the same time...

Jgblr: Leonard Cohen was prophetic when he wrote The Anthem. Ring the bells that can still be rung. The world watches in close succession to the flares or storms on the Sun.

Suppose, my dear, that you were I
And by your side your sweetheart sate;
Suppose you noticed by and by
The distance 'twixt you were too great;
