Suicide music.......

I always think Cohen is a kind on musical version of that left wing columnist whose name escapes me - miserable git, been on Question Time, thinks he's clever, never smiles...... (I'll think of it later)

Hallelujah is one of my favourite songs, although I prefer the Rufus Wainright version.

Yes, partial to a bit of Leonard Cohen myself.

LOL at The Young Ones quotes. Always think of that when I hear Cohen mentioned

Good song writer not sure about his ability to perform them though. Also anyone who prefers the Rufus Wainright version of Halleluja to the Jeff Buckley version is clearly mental.
