---ArleneI know, I am considered a real Philistine for not appreciating Leonard Cohen's music. It all dates back to my school years back in Ireland. When I was a teenager I'd head to small parties and gatherings, and inevitably some "guitar hero" would pull out his instrument and put a damper on the evening with a woeful rendition of "Suzanne". So, it's probably not Leonard Cohen that turns me off, and more the memory of acne-faced Dublin students doing terrible Cohen impersonations!
