Musica

These past few days I have been revisiting an obsession with the great master of words and music Mr. Leonard Cohen. His lyrics are genius, sometimes so simple they are beyond complex, words which touch the heart, exercise the mind and have the power to move entire audiences.
Watching and listening to songs in these past few days I was transported back in time to July 2009 when I went to see Mr. Cohen in concert, it is the one and only time I have been moved to tears by a concert. A combination of factors made my tears escape, fascination with the lyrics and the music, the charismatic performance and the sheer brilliance of the art which was being produced.

So now I am sharing it with you, it takes a little while to get used to the sound but his work is extensive and tells the tales of love, politics and human kind. I hope you enjoy it.
I love you.
