He was popular in this country. However, I did think he had been dead for a few years.

Well, he certainly sounded like it...but his songs are wonderful.



This is a guy who inspired Dylan, Neil Young, John Cale and a horde of others.

Loved in Oz. Toured many times to full houses.

Yes. He and Neil Diamond had a special love for and were loved by OZ



I have Neil's "Thank you Australia concert" .... superb and profoundly showed the mutual love



Back to Cohen, I also have his "Isle of White" 1970 where his presence and magic calmed over 1/2 million and turned a deadly in-progress riot that had potential to be horrendous and fatal for many  into a calm fun time. I highly recommend it .. well, both of the above in fact are extremely special videos with good sound tracks

Just HAD to post this choice version



LONDON — A 10-year-old girl from Northern Ireland has wowed people around the world after a video of her singing in her school choir went viral.



The video of the choirs's version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" — recorded at the school's Christmas show — has gained almost 170,000 views in three days.



Kaylee Rodgers, from Donaghadee, County Down, has autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but singing has helped her build up her confidence.

That wasn't filmed in "real time."  When they switch cameras, there's one retarded looking girl in the front row that's there, and then not there, and then there, etc...



That tells me it wasn't actually her singing as it appears in the clip.  It may be her voice, but it would've been recorded elsewhere.
