Re: NOW THE COUNTDOWN: Waiting For The News To Come

Thank you so much. I'll be sitting down with a nice glass of bubbly, in anticipation of the 'big reveal' then!

Re: NOW THE COUNTDOWN: Waiting For The News To Come

Does anybody know what time that will be in New Zealand? I'm hopeless with time zones. It's now Friday morning at 11.07am here!

Re: Waiting For The News To Come

I'm guessing that this might be a Leonard 'karaoke' dream, with a full orchestral soundtrack!

Re: "Thanks for the dance" - the new album

It was six years ago today and actually about this very hour, when Leonard played live for the very last time, here in Auckland, New Zealand. I was in the front row and watched as the whole crew came on stage. We enjoyed a united celebration before Leonard skipped off, so nimbly, for a final time. W...

Re: "Thanks for the dance" - the new album

From the very first line of that review it was clear that this Joseph Kugelmass - whoever he is, simply thought he was was being clever and went to a lot of trouble to deliberately find fault with every single aspect of 'Thanks for the Dance'. He's at odds with dozens of known and respected reviewer...

Re: "Thanks for the dance" - the new album

Oh, it's so beautiful, so beautiful. The Hills is magnificent, It's Torn is sublime and Puppets is so stark and confronting. That's all I've heard so far. Thank you Adam, you've made this old lady very, very happy today. I know there were doubters but you proved them wrong. And it's so lovely hearin...

Re: "Thanks for the dance" - the new album

What about 'Songs for Rebecca'? Isn't it still sitting in a studio vault somewhere? Never mind if not, 'Thanks for the Dance' will be a joyful last album from the man we all loved!

Re: "Thanks for the dance" - the new album

It's so beautiful and it's really Leonard. I couldn't stop crying as I listened for the first time.

Re: "A new album of original Leonard Cohen songs is in the works"

For non-French speakers:

'Cohen' is to be released in November, on the Columbia label, and will have 12 songs. Tribute concerts are being planned to co-incide with it in New York, Montreal and Paris.

Re: DrH's last post on 3 November - can the site be saved?

Dr HGuy has just promoted the 1979 'Silent Night', by Leonard and Jennifer, on Cohencentric. Maybe he's having second thoughts. Oh, I do hope so!

Re: Cohencentric Last Post

Only Allan knows the real reasons for Cohencentric's demise -and I respect that completely, but it was sad today (I'm in New Zealand, so ahead of many of you), to have this significant date pass without a typically funny, yet reverant DrHGuy tribute. Dear Leonard, we miss you so much - and we'll mis...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away

I knew that we would probably never see him again when I watched the 'You Want it Darker' release celebration interview, from the Canadian Consulate in LA. Leonard had an ethereal sort of 'childlike' look, which I've often observed in family and friends with late-stage cancer. Like a little boy who ...

So stunned. So sad, and so grateful to him for enriching my life beyond belief. Farewell, our friend.

Re: The Darker Album and the Songs

Treaty - definitely. It could apply to almost any relationship. I just love it. I hope that my neighbours like LC because he's been blasting out across our deck in Auckland, constantly, this early summer afternoon!
