I saw Leonard Cohen live in concert last night and fell deeper in love with his songs and sentiments (and the man himself!) than I thought possible. He was as sharply dressed and well spoken as ever, he skipped around the stage with vitality, sang on bended knee and wore his heart on his sleeve with every verse he sang (for almost 3 hours). Did I mention that he is 76 years old? It was moving and inspiring and a rare sight to behold. He even performed some 'new' songs, yet to be released on a studio album. And since you all couldn't be there, I thought I'd share one with you:
I said this can't be me
Must be my double
And I can't forget, I can't forget
I can't forget but I don't remember what
-Leonard Cohen
The Sweetest Little Song
You go your way
I'll go your way too
I am seeing this great man in November....beyond excited.
