Leonard Cohen Day: A 'Tribute'


CBC has been celebrating Leonard Cohen week since Monday. Everything comes to a frenzy today, Leonard Cohen's 80th birthday. I really shouldn't use the word 'frenzy' when writing about Leonard, as he doesn't seem like the type to become frenzied. Even when he took Manhattan and Berlin, he seemed downright depressed.

I like things to be upbeat so I decided to perform one of Leonard's big hits and play the 'tape' at double speed. His songs often go on for days or weeks, so out of respect top my audience of three, I only sang/spoke one and a half verses. In short, I made it short.

Hallelujah!
