    This is Leonard's best arrangement of this song, the trumpet at the end is masterful. All the musicians are fantastic.

    This is one of the 2 or 3 best live video performances by Julie and Perla that I've seen. Since the first time I heard them (12-inch LP,,'So Long Marianne') I've been entranced by their very great contribution to Mr. Cohen's recordings and performances. His gifted musicians give his delivery a professional fullness and frame his lyrics; Julie Christensen and Perla Batalla give life to each song in which they have a lot of voice, and depth on all. Leonard was incredibly fortunate that they joined him; they were stunningly fortunate to place their voices around his, and all three have such a close and very symbiotic relationship on and off stage. --Bud Budder Sportster Budster

    • @dirkjohansson6656
      @dirkjohansson6656 9 років тому +6

      +Bud Roberts I think that Leonard Cohen acknowledges this contribution by moving behind Julie and Perla (04:10), thus putting them in the limelight. Very nice gesture!

    Heard Leonard sing this (and many other songs) live in Toronto. This song was completely overwhelming in its beauty. Touching depths that very few other artists get to. His music was sometimes transformative. He had the gift and he honored it.

    Wsaniały piosenkarz o niepowtarzalnej duszy poety,pieknym głosie i cudownej umiejetności trafiania swoją muzyką do młodych i starszych fanow.Miałeś 82lata,ale dla mnie odszedłeś za wcześnie a ująłeś mnie swoją tworczością kilkadziesiąt lat temu.Nawet w komunistycznej Polsce nie odważono sie zabronić Ci koncertow!Dziekuje za bogactwo uczuć ,ktore tylko Ty potrafiłeś przekazać w swych utworach,swoim urzekającym głosem ,tłumom, i każdemu z nas osobno!To wielka sztuka i mimo wielkigo żalu,bo już Cie nie ma z nami,zostawiłeś nam swoje utwory i nagrania koncertowe!Dziekuje,i nadal,bede puszczała ,tak jak dotychczas,Twoje cudowne piosenki dzieciom,wnukom a może uda sie rownież prawnukom.Zasłużyłeś swoją tworczością,by być z nami zawsze i wszedzie.💜

    The elevation of Lorca's poem to the glory of this beautiful song is a grandiose tribute to both poets. Amazing!Thanks Leonard for contributing to the soundtrack of our lives for half a century. As the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inscribed in 2008:"For six decades, Leonard Cohen revealed his soul to the world through poetry and song-his deep and timeless humanity touching our very core. Simply brilliant. His music and words will resonate forever. "

    I was 18 years old when I first heard your voice and l listened to your lyrics of Suzanne, in some place of southern Greece. That was it. I have been in two concerts of yours and I have fond memories from both. I am deeply touched from the words and your songs. Today I am 61 years old and I am still thrilled to listen to your songs and deeply moved by your poems. I have read both of your novels, and most of your poems. It does not matter if I do not understand all the words and verses, as poems are deeply personal. Anybody can attach his/her own meaning to these. The point is the words and songs have a direct impact on me, they speak directly to my heart. Your deeply expressive voice is unique and unsurpassed. You became famous but you remained humble. That's a unique charisma of a beautiful person. There are really few like you. RIP Leonard.
    Είσαι ένας χαρισματικός άνθρωπος που μίλησες στην ψυχή μου. Εγώ θα φύγω, εσύ θα ζεις για πάντα.

    My first attempts at playing guitar and singing are all about this guy! He has always led me on in my music as has the legacy of Janis Joplin. I bought a Leonard Cohen song book when I was 18 and I learned every fingering, every word from that! And I still have that book!! 40 some years later, I still love this man and his music! I got to see him in concert when he was 75 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. What a privilege!! I will honor him forever as a wonderful Canadian musician! What a loss! But he was right there until the end and what else could we all wish for. Brenda Tenold, Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada

      Joan. My favorite Christmas song. At Midnight Borde /@@@@@ I was fortunate enough not to meet Leo until I was nearly 50. Until then I was mired in rock'n'roll and the maestro said it was Mozart but to me it sounded like bubble gum. By the age of 50 I had left babyhood and Bermuda behind and returned to my homeland, Iceland. It was in 1988 that I was ready to listen and partake of all of the complex verse and sweet simple music of love and life. And most of all the only religosity that ever made sense to me. Thank you my friend.

    It is still possible. That a second person person can share the Nobel Prize with Bob Dylan. I am sure that Bob Dylan has nothing against it. Do it.
    RIP wonderful poet and singer and person. Although this song is not written by you, your legacy of lyrics is a treasure for us all.

      The 'song' was most definitely written by him. His interpretation is based on Lorca's "Little Viennese Waltz" which is quite different lyrically, The melody to L Cohen's interpretation is also wonderful..

    So many of us lost a dear old friend when you passed, Leonard. My whole life, you had been there, I grew up with your poetry, your gravely voice, your beautiful, cynical, dark, sexy, joyous, audacious words, which were scary and beyond my immaturity at first, and which I grew into and they in turn burrowed into me. And then following my cancer treatment in 2016, while I was in a cancer rehab center, still reeling from the shock of 45 becoming 45, a crazy person at the helm of my beloved country, then you died, Leonard, and although I hadn’t listened to your music in awhile, I sobbed and felt like my world was rocked beyond recognition now, with you gone. Whoever might read this, it may sound like was a loser without a life sitting and listening to Leonard Cohen recordings, but I’d had a career as a singer, a loving husband and accomplished daughter, and a sizable circle of friends , had lived abroad etc etc, whatever, just saying I had a life, a substantial life, and yet when Leonard left it left me feeling for a time like all was hopeless. And yet in your poetry, you never peddled optimism or hope, but rather with that lopsided smirk on your face, you muttered eloquently about darkness and betrayal, sadness and joy, but only the moments of it, never looking very far ahead, only the moments. So why should your vanishing leave such a hole, if you hadn’t been providing us with something to give us hope…maybe your sensitivities about the darkness in us all, the self-serving, the fleeting nature of all things good, maybe the honesty and grace with which you expressed these lower sentiments made us believe your authenticity, gave us hope about the possibility of the human condition, if not about you personally. Maybe you told us about all the ugliness you saw in your own soul, while we only saw the boundless beauty in it. Maybe that alone made us hopeful that even as we recognized that ugliness and darkness within ourselves, from somewhere within us there radiated beauty and love. Oy, how I miss you, Leonard. Thank you for all you gave. I hope that at the end, you felt you‘d had a pretty damn good run.
