This is vastly different to the poems I've come acrossed and have been able to enjoy! Thank you very much for posting this ELP song! My close friend has only started to get into E...

Ode to Lizzytysh

Words alone could never do, To show my thanks I offer you. Here's a poem I give to thee, Take these words and remember me. Threw the years I've doughted my intelegence, Thinking those around me are above my equivalence. You have helped to cast down my doughtfulness, So now I sit here filled with vig...

My take on "Take This Waltz"

1st Part of the Story Now in vienna there’s ten pretty women (A tribute to the original song) There’s a shoulder where death comes to cry (I'm thinking a church) There’s a lobby with nine hundred windows (Churches are known for thier windows) There’s a tree where the doves go to die (My only guess i...

You say you can't catagorize him but to be honest he reminds me of Neil Diamond for some reason. What cat is he in and if none why has he done "so much better"? They came out what two years different?

They seem to come so easily to me esp when I am inspired! It got to the point that I was trying invent my own type of peotry! I've done everythign I'...

Since Leonard Cohen is not that populare where I come from I'm guessnig most of you are in your 40's? Not that I'm trying to poke fun of age and stuff I don't thin...

I believe firmly that "Take This Waltz" is indeed it's own song. It's spine maybe come from "Little Viennese Waltz" I don't think Charlene(the article writter) gives the proper credit to Leonard. The latter mentioned Waltz maybe have been a model but that's it. I can take an exce...
