There is another song on the same record, that seems to mention LC. ;-) The line with the blue trench coat always makes me smile. Telephone Call From Istanbul All night long on the broken glass livin in a medicine chest mediteromanian hotel back sprawled across a roll top desk the monkey rode the bl...
Hi Matt, I also remember hearing Born in Chains for the first time. This was a very stressful event. You know in a concert I like the moment, when Dance Me to the End of Love starts, I'm totally absorbed by the music, I'm all ears, thinking nearly stops (I listen to classical music the same way, I c...
Hi Xtineberg, thanks for answering. I got the impression that you were very frustrated from the way you were writing. You know, all those capital letters, exclamation marks, question marks. ;-) It's good to hear that this impression was wrong. So enjoy your next concerts ... All the best Stella And ...
dear Xtineberg, I understand your arguments although I do not feel the same way. I could listen to the same songs over and over again without being bored. What I don't understand is why you are attending so many concerts, if you don't like them. It's such a waste of time and money! Btw. this is the ...

It was very interesting to read your comments MattW and zwirnie as I enjoyed every second of yesterday's concert. I cannot afford to travel just to attend a concert, so could not see Leonard Cohen last year. The last concert I went to was in 2010. The show has changed significantly since then. There...
hi all for once i will also try to interprete Jarkko in his signature he writes for 2012: X / Helsinki / Verona I would understand that like he is planning to got to another concert before Helsinki, which is not announced yet Here's another guess - Wouldn't Jarkko want to attend the first concert o...
I was tempted to vote for Avalanche, but then I listened to In My Secret Life (Live in London). What LC's voice does with the line "from the latest hit to the wisdom of old" is simply incredible. It sounds like his wisdom comes from some place deep inside the soul, where all the wisdom lie...
For about thirty years I would have voted for Dress Rehearsal Rag, but since I first heard The Darkness on the last tour, I think this is Mr. Cohen's darkest song. I’ve got no future I know my days are few The present’s not so pleasant Just a lot of things to do I thought the past would last me But ...
