Description

The album's bookend tracks provide some evidence: Lord Byron's bittersweet "Go No More A-Roving," set to music and sung by Cohen and Sharon Robinson (and dedicated to Cohen's ailing mentor, Irving Layton), and a beautifully crafted reading of country music's greatest lost love song, "Tennessee Waltz. Cohen's voice is even quieter, almost whispering, nearly sepulchral. The tone of the album is mellow, hushed, nocturnal

While none of the songs are bad and the album sets a nice mood, it is ultimately a disappointment. Unlike many popular musicians Canadian song writer Leonard Cohen is first and foremost a poet. His first book of poetry, titled Let Us Compare Mythologies was released in 1956, while his first album was released in 1967 eleven years later. Songs of Leonard Cohen was a subdued, though powerfully emotional album. While it was critically acclaimed and remains a favourite among many music fans today, it was too gloomy for mainstream success

Dear Heather Please walk by me again With a drink in your hand And your legs all white From the winter. His work explored religion, politics, isolation, sexuality, and personal relationships. Cohen was inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame as well as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2011, Cohen received one of the Prince of Asturias Awards for literature and the ninth Glenn Gould Prize.
