That's awesome, thank you! I love Leonard's reply to Leno's comment about the length of his songs: "It was very gracious of you to invite me to chop this song in half!"

But, really, Leno's intro, quoting a magazine that said that LC is "possibly the best songwriter in America"?! Two issues: Leonard IS the best songwriter, anywhere, period, and, he's Canadian, thank you very much.

Great video, though!

That's awesome, thank you!

Thanks to the guy, who uploaded this great video - and to Marie Mazur, who first noted it and posted the link in FB group.
btw, this is a real problem: something posted at facebook stays unknown here, and contrariwise, the same.

Well, I guess, he's the best songwriter both in Canada and in the US. Also, as a geography teacher, I should add, Mr. Cohen is the best songwriter in North America. And perhaps, in the Americas entirely

Anyhow, this is better than - do you remember? - that "Boring Old Drone" moment
