It's always a pleasure to listen to that beautifully destroyed voice of his.
And starting at 07:12 it gets especially delightful:



Also, he's announced that he's going on tour.
I'm very much hoping to get tickets to see him somewhere in Canada.
And if I can't ... I might have to try for the U.K.
Anyone else planning to see him?]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29521#Comment_29521 2008-03-11T23:07:31-07:00 2013-05-19T00:57:18-07:00 ChrisSick http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=530

Since when did the Rock n' Roll hall of fame have taste? Okay, okay, after The Clash...

God, I love him singing "Hallelujah". The Jeff Buckley version gets so much play these days, but him singing those words just wrecks me. When Lou Reed is gushing about you... (I am ...

When Lou Reed is gushing about you...

(I am so goddamn glad it was Reed and not Bono, who gets more punchable each passing day)]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29529#Comment_29529 2008-03-12T00:26:57-07:00 2013-05-19T00:57:18-07:00 JP Carpenter http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=2485

Did the poor sod ever get his pension back? I remember reading that somebody pinched it a couple of years ago. My parents are massive Cohen marks - when 'I'm your man' came out I recall blagging ...

My parents are massive Cohen marks - when 'I'm your man' came out I recall blagging the live-size cutout of him from a local record shop - Leonard Cohen, eating a banana, lived at the end of our spare bed for years.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29537#Comment_29537 2008-03-12T01:53:21-07:00 2013-05-19T00:57:18-07:00 kahavi http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=2713

Hallelujah and Dance Me to the End of Love to me and my sister when we were kids. I guess that kind of stuck with me, because I still listen to Cohen with a sort of childlike wonder.

I'm glad that he got this, and I'm really happy about it being Lou Reed who gave that little speech.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29997#Comment_29997 2008-03-13T22:09:57-07:00 2008-03-13T22:11:10-07:00 Trotsky http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=1278

In all seriousness, Cohen is one of those people I think about and actually feel better about my country. As opposed to Celine Dion, Stephen Harper, and Don Cherry. (Apologies to anyone who doesn't know who they are...or congratulations?)

Also - how great is it that people think Hallelujah is a Buckley song? As in, Buckley wrote it?]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=30257#Comment_30257 2008-03-14T17:07:02-07:00 2013-05-19T00:57:18-07:00 V http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=765

What's on it? Tell! Tell!

I know a lot of people hold up The Future as his best album (and I do completely love it), but I continue to be fully entirely devastatingly in love with Ten New Songs.

Now, listing individual favourite songs as opposed to albums is, of course, an entirely different matter for me.]]>
