The beast will sleep tonight: Leonard Cohen 1934-2016

Post by Joaz Banbeck »

There's a vacancy in the tower of song. Leonard Cohen died earlier today.
He's been one of my favorite musicians for over forty years.

Mine too... but when I say it people laugh. Not sure why.
Anyhow... the world just got a little bit emptier.

The set I was in overdosed on his songs as late teenagers.... I suppose we would have been emo, if such a concept had existed back then. I still get goosebumps listening to them.
