I was introduced to his music and poetry as a teenager in the 70's and my love for him has never waned. I could recite so much of his work. Each time he has toured Australia I've been to see him in concert, and yes, they were some of the very best. I've got great memories of being at a private party and a rehearsal with him too. My family know I want them to play his Hallelujah at my funeral. A very special individual indeed and his passing is a great loss to millions around the globe I'm sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leonard-cohen#post-1753519 Thu, 24 Nov 2016 01:48:08 +0000 Anonymous 1753519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can watch his 1989 performance at Austin City Limits at <a href="http://acltv.com/?s=leonard+cohen&amp;submit=Search" rel="nofollow">http://acltv.com/?s=leonard+co.....mit=Search</a>&nbsp; </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leonard-cohen#post-1751951 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 10:34:51 +0000 Style Fan 1751951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Xtabay I loved "Girls Like Us".&nbsp; A book for women growing up in the 60s and about the music.&nbsp; Yes Mr. SF is very thoughtful.<br />Deb he is a wonderful poet.<br />Echo I agree.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leonard-cohen#post-1751867 Fri, 18 Nov 2016 23:46:16 +0000 Echo 1751867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The world has lost such an amazing artist and such an amazing man.
