Re: Random LC moment I am adoring today

Last night I was watching War Of The Worlds series 3 episode 1 on TV when near the end I unexpectedly heard the familiar opening chords to So Long Marianne.... Interesting that Gabriel Byrne who stars in this series was also the main actor in the film Death Of A Ladies Man. Goes to show.... once to...

Re: Nick Cave

Well, that was something (the YouTube links). I read in an article about Leonard and Bob Dylan that, "Bob Dylan, somehow, has always managed to occupy the niche Cohen carved out for himself", and watching the links from B4, it seems the same could apply perhaps to Nick Cave when it comes t...

Re: Nick Cave

You are right, it wasn't Montreal I was thinking of, but his performance on the I'm Your Man DVD! I am not sure if that is proof that it made a big impression on me or proof that it didn't. It would have been nice if he really had been in Montreal though, right? Yes, I did notice that he was born in...

Nick Cave

I am curious about Nick Cave. We saw him at the Tower of Song tribute in Montreal, so I know of him peripherally. Why is he tied to Leonard, and what is it that makes him so cool?
Any insights?
Thanks always,

Re: Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song,” Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine

Hello, Thank you for reaching out about the events in our neck of the woods. We did see that Seattle had an event, but it happened to be on the same day that our flight left to meet our new grandson in Arizona (nuts!). We are still there now, but we will renew the search when we get home next week. ...

Re: Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song,” Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine

Hi all, Dave and I follow anything Leonard on Instagram, and the trailer keeps popping up in our feed, but no info about when, where, and how to watch it. All I can find is that it is not available for streaming, will be at the Tribeca Film Fest next month, and opens in theaters in LA and NY on July...

Re: Along the way... Discovering Leonard's albums

Well, it is not 4 in the morning, but it is the end of December, making this a wonderful treat to wake up to. Thank you for the links and especially for the memories. If I could only chose one, I would have a hard time deciding which concert to attend. Given Leonard's age, I cannot help but wonder w...

Re: Anyone news on new music from Adam?

That's not really good news.... but maybe we will see something in 2023. That seems like a long time to wait, but we all know how fast time can pass.

Re: Leonard Cohen, Untold Stories: The Early Years

Very interesting B4. I read the first of "Untold Stories" and have the second on my Kindle, but have not started it yet. I am finishing up a book about the Greco-Persian Wars first, but I am looking forward to starting the second "Untold Stories". I guess I like to read anything ...

Re: New movie filmed on Hydra: So Long Marianne

Excited to see this much footage of Hydra!! And of course... anything about Leonard is always welcome.

Was there a release date mentioned? (maybe I missed it?)

Re: November 5

Art is in the eye of its creator, so criticism of art is neither here nor there, and there is no reason to speak in its defense. Still, I am drawn to point out that whether or not 'Leonard's' videos reflect his vision would be known only to him, or perhaps (at most) to those closest to him. I hope t...

Re: Along the way... Discovering Leonard's albums

Of all the songs on TFTD, Puppets is probably towards the bottom of the list if I were to make one. But ranking Leonard's songs is a little like taking a pile of perfect diamonds and assembling them in order from your favorite to your least favorite. They are all still perfect diamonds. Having said ...
