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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29521#Comment_29521 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 23:07:31 -0700 ChrisSick

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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29529#Comment_29529 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 00:26:57 -0700 JP Carpenter
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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29537#Comment_29537 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 01:53:21 -0700 kahavi 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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=29997#Comment_29997 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 22:09:57 -0700 Trotsky

First we take Manhattan, then we take BERLIN!


(I need to add that someone actually made me a 'best of cohen' mix TAPE last week. you'll never guess who, seriously) ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=30106#Comment_30106 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=30106#Comment_30106 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 09:53:03 -0700 thom_wong
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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=1360&Focus=30257#Comment_30257 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 17:07:02 -0700 V 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. ]]>
