    Default Leonard Cohen dies RIP.

    Just after seeing that Leonard Cohen has died aged 82 I think they said. Wasn't particularly a big fan but he was an influential songwriter. RIP .

    A man of many talents. He seems to have known that his time was up and he got his last album finished in time.

    The only person who could sing “Hallelujah”.
    All the others put too much inappropriate emotion into it.
    He was "the high priest of pathos" and sometimes the "godfather of gloom"

    RIP Leonard

    Amazing song writer if not always the best singer!

    But had the pleasure of seeing him in concert in 2012 and it stands up there with one of the best I've seen. The Guy knows how to work a crowd with some old fashioned charm.

    Sad to hear.
    He had a gift that not many people had.

    Rest In Peace.

    What a great video and thanks so much for posting Prickly.
    Have viewed this dozens of times in the past week.

    It gives a great understanding of the man, his music and also of the Irish audience.
    I can't remember where I was on this night in Dublin in September 2013 but I sure as hell know where I wish I was.
