Cohen's use of that music machine is cheapening his music.

On Ten New Songs, The music sounds on most of the songs are monotonously repeetetive. this is particularly the case with regard to the drm sounds, and the keyboard, artificial sounds that come across as hollow and unchanging. I've heard of minimalism, but what comes across to this listener is that Cohen wasn't bothered with employing a few decent musicians, and instaed took the easiest way out, by using music machines..lending most of his great songs an air of second rate background sound, a sense of falsenesss, lacking authenticity. Still it's better than no new Cohen album at all.

Ten New Songs
I must disagree
Ten New Songs
is a new life in the old master
a change in spiritual direction
a serenety never experienced before in Cohen
a harmony and softness
very subtle
and cocoones around the subconcious
and tickles the secret chords that David played
For it pleased the Lord

The only Audrey I know is gene Autrye, the singing cowboy. he also was A kinda poet, like lenny. He best piece is well known and was recorded sung by Gene himself in 1952, reaching the top ten U.S. country and western charts.Anonymous wrote:That would be tawdry. The other is an ellipsis form of To Audry, a well-known type of homage poetr, addressing Audrey as a representative name for a beloved object of desire, to whom the poet is writing. It is usually spelled with an apostrophe.
I was on my horse the other day,
When I say a guy who did say,
You know, my friend a place to stay,
I said no,
But I know the greatest lay,
He said; the greatest lay?
I said she really is the greatess lay in town,
He said: my friend, why do you say she is the greatest lay,
I said because my horse told me Neeeeigh.
He told me Neeeeigh,
He told me Neeeeigh,
He told me Neeeeigh,
He told me Neeeeigh,
So sleep tight my friend,
Just don't sleep under that horse,
Even tho,
she is the greatest lay.
