Songs from a room has by far the best rear cover. It seems like an ideal existence, a sparse room with a typewriter, a chess board, a bed, a skull and a beautiful woman sitting at a desk with no underwear. All on an island in Greece. I dont see why Leonard was so depressed at the time. I would live ...

Everyone do yourself a favor and buy the Ween record "The Pod"
It is like nothing you have ever heard.

I am astounded by the amount of replies lizzytysh has. That is true dedication to Cohen. I thank you for all your thoughts.

Leonard you truly are the man. Happy 70th Birthday!

Is it just me or does putting a Cohen song on your cellphone greatly cheapen the experience of the song? The great thing about his songs is that you dont hear them being played everywhere you go. Putting him as a ring tone comercializes a man who is not commercial.
