Eurovision 2016 Leonard references

Whilst watching the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest on TV last night, I was amused to hear the host, Petra Mede, in the green room addressing the San Marino contestant Serhat (a Turkish born and trained dentist) with the comment that he looked like "the love child of Leonard Cohen...".

There was another reference to him by our broadcast hosts as having a touch of Leonard Cohen about him (fedora and all)

... I think I agree with them to some degree, though the actual performance may not have been quite like one Leonard would do.
Cheers,
Andrew

The German broadcast host said "Leonard Cohen meets Silver Convention at the 70s disco".
In other words: Death of a Ladies' Man.

Hi Ken,
Sorry for the delay, but I only just saw your question tonight.
In answer to it, I can't imagine anyone wanting to request that.
Cheers,
Andrew
