Funny, I just played it yesterday.
I like his "HALLELUJAH".... actually I favor Bon Jovi's cover of it.
"So Long, Marianne" is my favourite Leonard Cohen song. I like "Closing Time" too.

I love Leonard Cohen!
He is mostly thought of as a songwriter, but I love it when he sings his own songs.
Nothing beats "Hallelujah".

And I think the lines
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
in the song "Anthem" are some of the most poignant and beautiful ever written.
YES.
My favourites are "Everybody Knows" and "The Guests"
You may also like his books, "Beautiful Losers" and "The Favorite Game"
Cheers

I absolutely used to LOVE Leonard Cohen but haven't listened to him lately. This certainly revived my interest, thanks for pointing this OUT.
I love Suzanne and I'll take Manhattan.... and much more. I haven't heard the Hallelujah one before, it was nice but not the best of his songs. Looking at those videos on you tube he was Much Younger in them than now,
I am going to pull out my CDs of him and Listen to him tonight by the Fireplace.
