Re: CONCERT REPORT: Auckland, New Zealand, Oct. 28-29,2010
Still sexy at 76 ? Of course he is. Every day the man is more youthful, better-looking, more irresistible, and (deservedly ) richer. Not that money is necessarily sexy, but racy elegance is - and that does come at a price. He's always had charisma and genius, but, like mature wine, he just gets bett...

SOLITUDE invisible cords connect us and unseen presences watch over us forever and: LEONARD-SENSEI, LOVER EXTRAORDINAIRE, PRAY FOR US When we were young I said a prayer for you It was clear, from your work that you were in pain. Now I see, in your w...

Re: Happy 76th birthday, Leonard! (September 21, 2010)
My dear soul companion It's a cliche, I know, but: I read your words, I heard your songs, and I was no longer alone. Even in hard times the beauty of your work, the truth of your spirit is there to remind me that all is not darkness, and for this I thank you from the heart. I wish every day to be sp...

Re: Bring Back The Violin
I, too, would LOVE to hear a gypsy violin on this tour ( as well as Dino S.) - Rafi Hakopian was sublime - but it would need to be somebody as good as him.
I know Leonard tried to find Rafi prior to this tour...

Re: Iranian Canadian Journalist saved by L. Cohen
I am so happy that Leonard is FINALLY getting some specific, well-deserved, and very public validation as to the healing and sustaining power of his work. After those idiot , unseeing comments about "music to slit your wrists to " in earlier days. It is good that this has happened in his l...

Re: Iranian Canadian Journalist saved by L. Cohen
Just read this moving story,the headliner in Newsweek Nov 30 issue, in a bookshop in Japan....first time I`ve picked up that mag in decades. Mr Bahari also refers to " The Partisan" and " So Long Marianne" as having sustained him, and says " Of such stuff survival is made. T...

Re: IMITATION COHEN
To those who have just replied: Please read my posting again. I am a little surprised that some people think the words " see parodies and imitations of Leonard`s WRITING" would mean " hear covers of his songs". I do try to choose my words with care. If the word " parodies&qu...

Re: Leonard Cohen 76 years
Please re-read my first posting on this subject. It is a suggestion, not a process, at this stage. It is up to the members of this Forum to decide together each year as to the form their gifts to Leonard will take. But people may want to start thinking about their contributions now...in case this bo...

IMITATION COHEN
Am I the only one who finds it offensive when I see parodies and imitations of Leonard`s writing on this Forum ? I do wish members would develop their own creative abilities, instead of desecrating his. His work is perfect. Leave it alone. I am sure Leonard would agree with me one thousand percent. ...

Re: LEONARD – THE SEVENTH
Great quotations, Zoltan- thanks so much for posting them.
Did you know that Sam Hunt, a New Zealander who opened at Leonard`s concerts in Wellington and Auckland this year, also chose to read "The Seventh" at that event?

Re: Leonard Cohen 76 years
Sourire, I haven`t yet seen a hard copy published by http://www.lulu.com, but: It has been recommended to me by a co-worker who has used it ( his own hard copies have been sent back to his home country in Europe ) and he tells me there is a range of options and prices.
