Happy birthday to you Mr. Leonard Cohen. To me, you music is more than I can say. Not only did I finish the good book w/in 1 year. Yes 1 year. I truly love it. Not only have you inspired me that way, but your music is remarkable. I wish you more years in your life. I only wish that I knew for sure that you would only see these posts. What you could & have taught others w/you music alone says enough. You have a gift from the creator. You and your Angels are truly blessed.

Leonard,
I know that names beginning with the letter "L" are important in your family, so I just want to tell you that I loved you in Lissadell and I loved you in Lisbon, but also in other places like Dublin and Barcelona, on records, tapes, cd s, dvd s, videos, in your own books and SOME of the books about you!
Thank you for the music and the poetry, and especially for bringing the two together so beautifully.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
Ann

Dear Leonard,

Thank you. . .
for reaching places in my heart that noone else has ever touched
for revealing the handles of the roads
for taking me to the places that scare me
for caressing my soul with the most beautiful Sound in the world
for being the most intimate, long-time companion of my heart
I lay all my mornings and all my nights at your feet
I love you, I need you
I wish you everything that makes you happy
May the long-time sun always shine upon you
Happy Happy Birthday and many many more. . .

Love always,
Rachel

Glory to You, Mr. Cohen !

Master, You are great, and Your each concert is well worth all the money. About You and Your concerts can not talk without pathos.

Still I can see the elegant Man in the tasteful hat ...and so it already remains.
Leonard forever :D

Happy Birthday, Mr. Cohen !


Thank You !

Happy Birthday Leonard. Seeing and hearing you in Nashville was one of the highlights of my life.
Having just turned 74, I was feeling old. Left that performance feeling young. In the sixties, that
performance would be called a happening!!

Dear Leonard, muitos parabéns!

Thank you for coming again to Lisboa. It was another unforgettable night!

Thank you for being so present in our lives. I listen to your cds mostly because I feel happy. However, I live knowing that, such as the trapeze artist at the circus has a network that protects him when he falls, I have your music. When I feel unhappy or a little bit angry, I listen to your songs and to your voice. You reduce all the emptiness of my life to just one bad day. Then, your voice is my silence.

Thank you, dear Leonard Cohen! Please, don't forget that we love you, we admire you and we need you. And we are so many all over the world! Thank you for still working for our "little" smile! I loved your new songs.

With love,
Inês
