I plan on getting my 2nd Leonard Cohen tribute tattoo on my right arm in March. It’s a simple one, but the meaning is beyond measure.
rubberbandmusic:
It warms my heart to see how much love Leonard Cohen is getting due to “Old Ideas.” Finally listening to it properly and I’m in love with it already. Elegant, sensual, honest and healing. I’ll be writing a proper review tomorrow most likely.
Thank you for the music, Leonard. It calms my heart. It makes the mind wander. What I constantly need.
It is not to tell you anything...

It is not to tell you anything but to live forever that I write this It is my greed that you love I have kept nothing for myself I have despised every honour Imperial and mysterious my greed has made a slave of you

I’m pretty sure Leonard Cohen’s most recent album (not technically released yet) is perfect.
I can’t stop listening to it. It’s everything I like about his music. It makes me very happy.
My Lady Can Sleep
stevienewell:
My lady can sleep Upon a handkerchief Or if it be Fall Upon a fallen leaf.
I have seen the hunters kneel before her hem Even in her sleep She turns away from them.
The only gift they offer Is their abiding grief I pull out my pockets For a handkerchief or leaf.
