    A broken man, with a broken heart speaking from his broken soul, in a broken voice. Haunting and sublime. I was lucky enough to attend a live concert, graced with his presence. One of the most memorable experience of my life. Thank you for giving us all those beautiful songs. RIP Mr. Cohen, hope that one day I"ll join you and be in your presence again !

      In my opinion Leonard Cohen was very far from from "a broken man, with a broken heart speaking from his broken heart in his broken voice". In this clip he was just an older man quoting the introductory words of his song Let it be your Will that he regards as a prayer, prior to handing over to the Webb sisters to sing.
      Leonard Cohen since his emergence in the 1960s has always been a comptemplative, reflective singer and an excellent lyricist songwriter.

    I was 17, my sister was 18 and she lifted the record player arm and placed it gently on a new vinyl recording of Leonard Cohen singing Suzanne. I was captured and discomforted. The part that drilled right through me was:
    "And Jesus was a sailor,
    when he walked upon the water.
    And he spent a long time watching
    From his lonely wooden tower
    And just when he knew for certain
    only drowning men could see him
    He said all men will be sailors then
    until the sea shall free them
    forsaken, almost human
    he sank beneath your wisdom
    like a stone."
    That was close to 60 years ago and ever since, as I navigate a particularly difficult self-inflicted trial, I think (and sometimes even smile) wondering is this what it takes to bring the Ground of Being into focus? Again and again in my journey Leonard Cohen has shone a piercing uncomfortable light into the fog of my life. Thank you Leonard!

    If It Be Your Will
    [Leonard Cohen]
    If it be your will
    That I speak no more
    And my voice be still
    As it was before
    I will speak no more
    I shall abide until
    I am spoken for
    If it be your will
    If it be your will
    That a voice be true
    From this broken hill
    I will sing to you
    From this broken hill
    All your praises they shall ring
    If it be your will
    To let me sing
    If it be your will
    If there is a choice
    Let the rivers fill
    Let the hills rejoice
    Let your mercy spill
    On all these burning hearts in hell
    If it be your will
    To make us well
    And draw us near
    And bind us tight
    All your children here
    In their rags of light
    In our rags of light
    All dressed to kill
    And end this night
    If it be your will
    If it be your will.

      There are only temporary Atheists.....one day for sure the pain of it becomes unbearable and the Longing for the Supreme Love, Goodness, Compassion veiled & distorted by the personal Ego starts to truly awaken....which is the very Beginning of the true spiritual journey....of deepest purification from all false unloving traits, thoughts, emotions, ideas & concepts of self & "others"....and in this long journey back HOME there eventually really & truthfully comes the point that one IS absolutely willing to lay down their physical Life for the very sake of LOVE itself...
      All words fail to describe both the intensity & immensity of Supreme LOVE & GOODNESS itself when this point is reached...as one has so deeply purified and surrendered for a long time to this REALITY of Supreme Love & Goodness that ONLY becomes accessible by the GRACE of that very LOVE & GOODNESS itself that most people refer to as GOD, usually as an honoring of God for proven sincerity & integrity of intentions....
      Honoring all the real Saints of Humanity that have been there before me and encouraging all those coming after me.
      For there IS a REALITY of unspeakable LOVE, GOODNESS, COMPASSION & GRACE.
      It IS my true hope that eventually everyone may experience THAT Reality in their own time...

    I came back to this song after listening to one of Leonard Cohen's last interviews in which he said that he never considered himself a religious man or really had any spiritual strategy. Ironic then that so many of his songs, especially this one, are bridges between the mundane and the divine.

I decided to goggle this man. Iwas amazed and continue to be enthralled by his authenticity, his unique voice and his magical lyrics. I am in my mid -70’s And will enjoy swimming in his voice and lyrics. What a gift he is.

    I cycled to Vienna from deep in Eastern Europe in the Summer of 2015 to escape the calamity of a cherished long-term relationship in its death throes. We arrived filthy and haggard. I so desperately wanted to bump into Leonard at a fountain, a square, a concert hall. I saw his face everywhere. I wanted to look him in the eye and thank him for the beautiful words he bestowed to us all throughout his career. A nice dream. Alas, all I found was a lobby with nine hundred windows and a tree where the doves go to die.

    I was fortunate to see and hear LC and his wonderful group that accompanied him for his 2009 tour. Boston Wang Center. A fantastic concert that I claim as an uplifting religious experience. I was blessed to fully appreciate the man, his music and the moment. RIP and thank you.

  • @sorryfortheinconvenience
    @sorryfortheinconvenience 4 роки тому +23

    Fortunate to attend the concert of LC in the Wang Center in Boston in '09. Actually, it was much much more than a concert. It felt like a beautiful religious ceremony. To say it was remarkable would be an incredibly weak attempt. I absolutely loved the night and LC and the Webb sisters along with everyone on the stage that night provide rich tones and color to the already profound words of an absolute master of pen to paper. I knew that I was fortunate to attend such a magical night. Every time I hear Leonard Cohen I am reminded of the fact. RIP Mr. Cohen. I hope that I am good enough good graces that I will be able to confide to you how much you mean to me. If I get in, I will look for you.
