Crazydog7 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 This is.....extremely depressing. 2016 a great year for killing the legends that memorial thing they do at the Academy Awards is going to be longer then the actual ceremony.

Lykos Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Leonard Cohen and Joan Baez were the musical heritage my mother left me when she died during my early teens. So Long, Marianne from Songs of Leonard Cohen and Diamonds in the Mine from Songs of Love and Hate have been and still are my favorites. There are many more that ensure Leonard Cohen's immortality.

James Arryn Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 An enigmatic poet, reluctant rebel, intimate performer and one of the most intriguing Canadians of all time. Here's hoping you found more peace than silence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maarsen Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I first came across his music back in 1970 at 14 years of age, going through a difficult time. I will miss him in the worst way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This song was written about a place I lived close to, knew about, and never set foot in. If I had only known... It is one of my favourite songs by Leonard Cohen and one I try to play as often as I can. This is a sad day for me. Thanks for posting it, LongRider.

MercenaryChef Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Sad news. he has long been one of my favorite voices. got exposed to him via the natural born killers soundtrack so long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arataniello Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Amazing talent. Something like fourteen (only fourteen) albums in forty years, but the impact he has had was vast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunderMifflin Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 His latest album is really good. Definately the best of his post 2000 work imo. I first was introduced to him in the 90s through the movie Natural Born Killers. A lot of Lenny Co songs are in that movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas! Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I am finally, absurdly, crying real tears about this tonight. Can't really quantify how much he meant to me as a poet and as a songwriter and, strangely, as a Canadian (I'm not the patriotic sort). It's been a weird blur since I heard the news, but it just sunk in tonight. Goodbye, Mr. Cohen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
