Re: Where did Leonard take you - your story
For me - My intro to Leonard was as a little girl listening to Suzanne (covers).... As an adult rediscovered him twice...at age 19, a boyfriend who was into him...but then in my 30s, after hearing Buckley's Hallelujah, giving me the inspiration to look further into Cohen. An oh my goodness - his wo...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
There are statements in the article by Bill Curry that i'm not sure have been verified .
Unhelpful !
Still heavy of heart when my mind focuses on what the world has lost.

Re: has dylan commented....
Dylan is on tour at the moment , but these days doesn't say anything on stage .It's been a while since he even introduced his band! He's reluctant to say anything in public , not even about being awarded the Nobel prize.He has made no direct comment about that As far as i know he hasn't commented on...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
I assume they confuse Leonard with another Canadian here, Neil Young. So "Hurricane hitmaker" would refer to his big hit, "like a Hurricane". Yes, that is possible. Thanks. - Though "hitmaker" is also a strange word to describe Leonard ... The dangers of copy and paste...

Re: Bench updates
Very regrettable, especially as the u turn announcement is so close in time to Leonard's passing. Originally planned as an 80th birthday gift ,sadly would have become also an ' in memoriam' bench , perhaps somewhere to peacefully sit and remember leonard. I hope it gets sorted out , though if it can...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
LEONARD Cohen was in "deep pain" caused by cancer before he died. The 'Hurricane' hitmaker passed away at the age of 82, and although no exact date and cause of death has been confirmed, it has been claimed that the iconic musician was suffering from the disease and had been physically de...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
Oh my, that makes it even sadder (if that's even possible)!! Because, of course, it means that he might have had more time if that didn't happen. But who knows, maybe that did have to happen, according to some mysterious plan that is beyond our capacity to comprehend. . .but whether it had to happe...
