Сегодня все разговоры только о Leonard Cohen (21.09.1934 - сегодня).
Что еще добавить к этим грустным цифрам в скобках и прекрасному прощальному альбому этого легендарного поэта, писателя и певца. Каждый трек которого - это целая жизнь, огромная душа.
"Несколько лет назад мы с Бобом Диланом пили кофе в Париже. В то время он исполнял песню Hallelujah на своих концертах и спросил меня, сколько времени ушло на её написание. Я сказал: «Два года, почти целиком». Он был в шоке. Затем мы заговорили о его песне I And I и я спросил: «Сколько времени ты потратил на то, чтобы написать её?» Он сказал: «Практически 15 минут». Я чуть не упал со стула. И самое смешное в том, что я соврал. На самом деле, на Hallelujah ушло почти 5 лет. Конечно, и он соврал. У него, наверное, ушло минут десять."
Просто, добавлю сюда пару самых любимых мною его треков.
п.с.: какой прекрасный конец долгой и прекрасной любви... прощальное письмо своей музе, Marianne Ihlen (что на фото ниже/умерла в июле):
“Well Marianne it’s come to this time when we are really so old and our bodies are falling apart and I think I will follow you very soon. Know that I am so close behind you that if you stretch out your hand, I think you can reach mine.
And you know that I’ve always loved you for your beauty and your wisdom, but I don’t need to say anything more about that because you know all about that. But now, I just want to wish you a very good journey. Goodbye old friend. Endless love, see you down the road.”

Today, all talk is only about Leonard Cohen (09/21/1934 - today).
What else to add to these sad numbers in brackets and the beautiful farewell album of this legendary poet, writer and singer. Each track of which is a whole life, a huge soul.
“A few years ago, Bob Dylan and I drank coffee in Paris. At that time he was performing the Hallelujah song at his concerts and asked me how long it took to write it. I said:“ Two years, almost entirely. ”He was in shock. Then we talked about his song I And I and I asked: "How much time did you spend writing it?" He said: “Almost 15 minutes.” I almost fell off my chair. And the funny thing is that I lied. In fact, it took Hallelujah almost 5 years. Of course, he lied. He probably took minutes ten."
Just add here a couple of my favorite tracks.
ps: what a wonderful end to a long and beautiful love ... a farewell letter to his muse, Marianne Ihlen (which is pictured below / died in July):
