Leonard Cohen last night

Wow. Just wow.

My dad cried during Hallelujah



  • i'm seeing him in brighton with my dad

    will he like it?

    • If he likes Leonard Cohen yes

      A broad range of his whole career, and let's face it, the man's a living legend.

      He's also tremendously witty and charming

      • good!

        the only music i remembered being played as i was growing up was leonard cohen. it made me hate him for about 15 yrs.

        • I wept like a moron

          at Glastonbury. He's amazing! And I'll say it again, his Hallelujah is the original and best version... and that's not even his best song!

          (that award goes to 'Everybody Knows')

          • Im very tempted

            to go see him in Brighton, despite the £60+ tickets.

          • Suzanne

            gets my vote for best song. Did he recite A Thousand Kisses Deep? The hairs on the back of my neck stood up during that.

          • ^ this man knows

            I openly wept during Everybody Knows at Glastonbury

  • Glad you and yer dad enjoyed it LLB...

    Saw him at Glastonbury and was blown away. The mans songs are amazing, his band superb, he has grace, charisma and charm and is well dressed.
    Whats not to love!

    • See I saw him at Glastonbury

      and that was a special moment. I didn't know that I'd be seeing him again 2 weeks later.

      But for my dad it ended a 35 year wait. He was a happy man

  • I saw a documentary once

    he played in paris and played suzanne 9 times, did he do that?

  • "My dad cried during Hallelujah."

    • Whatevs

      My dad reacted emotionally to one of his favourite artists who he has waited 35 years to see performing one of his most triumphant songs in a manner in which he sounded like he was summoning his soul up through his throat and out into the world.

      I'd be more gutted if he didn't cry frankly

  • I wish my Dad listened to Leonard Cohen.

  • OH SNAP!

    My mum cried during Halleujah.

  • i can't believe he played

    tower of song, so long marrianne and hallelujah in a row at glasto.
    fantastic.

  • YOUR DAD IS A GIRL
