I'm very sad that he has passed away. But I'm very happy to have known his music and to have a collection of all his albums and be able to listen to them for as long as I live. I'm also very proud of Leonard Cohen. He became a world renowned musician and poet and it has been said that he has put on ...

Hello Cam42 and Welcome, This forum has slowed down recently. But there are still plenty of people reading and watching. So if you have anything to say or any questions to ask, I hope you will feel free. Everyone that I have met here have been most kind and helpful and I'm sure that any posts you ma...

i think Tom Sakic has the point: Byron did use 'we', but Leonard could have chosen some other song which is about 'me' if he wanted. i think he chose this one BECAUSE this 'we', and 'going a-roving' just in the way the interview applies. icecreamtruck, you shouldn't get offended EVER on this or any...

Hello Lisa. Very nice to hear from you again. The main reason I loved this film was because about half of the film consists of LC talking directly to the audience and telling us about his life, his experiences, philosophies and attitudes towards life. It seemed to me that he had developed these atti...

I just saw this documentary film and I thought it was the single best experience I've ever had with LC. By that, I mean that I enjoyed it more than any of his albums - if that was even possible. I was hoping to come here and find an existing thread where people discussed that film. I don't want to b...

Hartmut & Goldin, Thanks very much for your opinions and for the reference to that site. What a great site. I think I will be consulting that site fairly often now. These sort of questions seem to come up a lot for me. I wouldn't think it's about cell phones. Someone said this song was written l...

Thank you Lisa. I removed the reference to that album because I really don't like any of the songs on that album.

. . I asked Lisa if she had an opinion as to the meaning of the LC lyric, "talking to their pockets". I must admit that trying to ascertain the meanings of Leonard's rather cryptic lyrics are waters into which I am generally hesitant to tread. However, just for today I shall be bold and ma...

Hello Lisa, Thank you so much for finding those threads for me. It was wonderful to see so many people share their opinons about LC's favorite song(s). I'm afraid that when I join a new message board, the search function is almost always the one thing that gives me the most trouble. Seems like every...

Cheers!

Oh my. I'm beginning to suspect that you are a classy lady. Thank you.

Oh Dear. I'm so sorry. I tried to add a reply to tell Lisa that I had edited my previous post to suggest that red blob was Iodine. But I clumsily wound up reporting Lisa's post by mistake. A complete clumsy error and the system does not allow me to send an explanation attached to the report. I'm ver...

Hello Matthew_n. Welcome and thank you for releasing me from the position of the newest member in this forum. I believe that you are now the newest member here. Interesting that you come from the Czech republic. I just had a spectacular dream last night about Paulina. Have you ever seen her live? I'...

Hello Everybody, I would like to say hello and tell you that I first heard LC in 1968 when I was a college student in Montreal and my room mate bought his album "Songs of Leonard Cohen". We used to listen to it every morning as we woke up and by Christmas, my outlook on life had been trans...
