Will you all just get your sweaty hands off Leonard? He's mine. I mean ours. You must have somebody worth sweating on over on that side of the pond.

First record I ever owned, that was. Well, actually, maybe second. I think the first was Freddy and the Dreamers, and that was purely a protest vote.

If I say: oil on a gravel driveway?


Are you guys getting Elvis Costello's variety/interview show at all? It just wrapped here, and it's been quite good. Too much Rufus Wainwright for anybody's good, though. Anybody wants to take him and the dreadful Diana Krall (married to Elvis, so got a segment of the show of course) off our hands, welcome.

Have you got it yet Rose? I have played mine over and over since Monday Do you think this could be a record?......I just love it.

That's exactly what friend and I said Susan lol about his voice :) Not sure about dvd playing?

xx

Hmm! not sure now......won't my DVD play on a portable too....cos if so...so will yours and if not.....I may need it....hmmm!...confused

His voice has got more mellow over the years, don't you think?

yes please Susan! if you don't want it when it comes I will buy it off you so I can play in bedroom on portable cd player lol

xx

I have just noticed on the DVD that it can be played audio too...lol...Oh well

anyone want a Leonard Cohen CD, Live in London? ( when it gets here that is)

No not yet Susan lol

xx

Just got my DVD Rose. Has yours turned up yet? Haven't received the cd yet though.

Wonderful stuff, I stayed up til 01.45 to catch the whole lot, seems like it was a full Leonard Cohen night.

I remember seeing him play at Hammersmith Odeon, around 1979/1980 I think it was, and he came back for 12 encores!!!!
Chelsea Hotel and Dance Me to the End of Love are favourites, but I could happily listen to any of them at any time.

K

Wonderful, wasn't it?

I love him.

oh that was so good...I admit that apart from several songs that my first fiance used to sing I had missed a lot of the Cohen songs (just slightly before my 'era' music wise) but I think I have probably come to them at just the right time...

xx

Darn

Missed it

on the catch up

That was b****y good! nipped back up to say another programme following...if anyone has Stella's phone number give her a shout will you :)

xx

I must have missed it 'cos Big Brother is on !!!!!!!!!.I used to go into a record shop back in the late 60's early 70's and listen to his music on those big headphones lol.He was quite depressing now I come to think !!

Holds hands up! I don't actually know his music. well not that I am aware of at this moment anyway. LOL

Think Suzanne has to be one of everyones faves but difficult to decide really

Bet she did also. ...still I have loads of Cohen music here so I can always play some instead. Mind I still think the old stuff is the best.

Hey Uzzi Rose did nay phone me either but bet I know who she did phone! Name sounds like a lager...... LOL

Tuts*

I don't have a tele ! lol
