Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat (Live)

[@genford7141]

[@nathanielrap]

Leonard Cohen was one of the most important songwriters ever to have lived. His incredible and massive body of work is one of the most brutally honest, and beautifully expressed translations of human psychology and emotion that exists. He was a true pioneer, perhaps not through any true desire to be a trendsetter, but through a manner of carrying out all aspects of his artistry completely in his own way. The world has lost one of its most unique voices, but a voice that I'm sure will be heard for generations to come. Rest in peace to a truly great man, a man that helped me realise the power of music, and a songwriter that will forever be an inspiration for me to make and perform music.

Cohen, the CIA and MKULTRA. Cohen was brainwashed Kelley Lynch 1754 N. Van Ness Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90028 October 25, 2018 By USPS Judge Dennis A Perluss, Presiding Judge Second Appellate District Division Seven 300 South Spring Street 2nd Floor Los Angeles, California 90013 Re: Leonard Norman Cohen vs. Kelley Lynch Court of Appeal Case No. B267794 L.C. vs. K.L. Court of Appeal Case No. B267409 Dear Judge Perluss: I am writing in response to Wendy Lascher’s letters to this Court dated October 10, 2018 with respect to the above referenced cases. Wendy Lascher does not represent my interests and I did not authorize her to request a continuance of oral arguments due to the retaliatory proceedings before Los Angeles Superior Court, Case No. 6CJ03685, related to deceased “protected” party, Leonard Cohen, and/or the co-conspirators, Robert Kory and Michelle Rice that involves a very serious federal tax controversy, obstruction of justice with respect to federal tax matters and compliance with federal tax laws, and the use of the fraudulent California and Colorado restraining orders to tamper with the administration of those laws. As set forth in the Natural Wealth suit, filed with the U.S. District Court in Colorado on July 1, 2005, Leonard Cohen and Robert Kory planned to use restraining orders to “crush” and “discredit” me as a “witness.” This does not seem to be a valid basis for the issuance of restraining orders. This allegation was raised six months prior to Cohen obtaining his first civil harassment order against me. That order was not a domestic violence order and therefore one must conclude that the nature of Cohen and my relationship, which was purely business as set forth in the motion filed with the Boulder Combined Court, changed at some time during the period of 2005 through May 25, 2011 when the fraudulent California domestic violence order was issued to Cohen without minimal due process, service, notice, and/or a meaningful opportunity to be heard. I would like to point out that I did not see Leonard Cohen again, apart from legal proceedings before LA Superior Court, since November 2004. Leonard Cohen and I were not in a “dating” relationship. Sexual harassment and sexual assault are not “dating” and California’s laws, as well as federal VAWA, have a statutory relationship requirement. My lawyers discussed the sexual harassment and so forth with Robert Kory as early as January 2005. At that time, in front of my lawyers and accountant, Robert Kory offered me “50% community property.” I have steadfastly refused to enter into any type of settlement agreement with Leonard Cohen due to his conduct and the conduct of his representatives. I find the issuance of the fraudulent California domestic violence order, and particularly in light of the public’s interest in sexual harassment, gravely offensive. I also take offense at the government, without any jurisdiction whatsoever, assigning me a “dating” or any other type of “relationship” with anyone......................................................................................................................................................................

[@TheTransitmtl]

Nick Falletta I had the chance to meet him one cold November morning (not even kidding. It was poetic) on Ste-Catherine street in Montreal. I was coming back from an all night party and was a little off. I crossed the street and there's this well dressed old man with a scarf and a classy hat and it was Leonard Cohen. I started listening to him when I was 17 with my girlfriend of the time. We used to lay in bed late at night, naked listening to all his albums. Bird On a A Wire, Who By Fire, Chelsea Motel. I said hi Mr Cohen he said hello, I said you're music means so much to me thank you. He said thanks and shook my hand. I was completely dumbfounded. he said goodbye and went along. When he died me and that girlfriend of mine which has been my friend for 20 years went to his appartement near The Main in Montreal and laid some roses and oranges amongst the hundreds of other flowers, incense, candles and offerings. We stayed there for 2 hours almost silent.

[@prikiinha]

Lines like "And when she came back she was nobody's wife", and "What can I tell you, my brother, my killer/ I guess I miss you, I guess I forgive you/ I'm glad you stood in my way" and "Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes/I thought it was there for good so I never tried" just amaze me and leave me in awe. These lines completely nail it and are written with such ability, sensibility and depth. Leonard is a pure genius! What a wordsmith!

Rip you beautiful soul. You were a legend, Cohen. ♥

[@Endrit719]

I've never been a fan of saxophones, but in this rendition it fits perfectly, I love it a lot, Leonard I can never have enough of your music

[@andriancurshen3586]

This is a most interesting version of one of L. Cohen's most fascinating songs. He takes liberties with the lyrics making it even sadder and more reflective. He appears depressed here also. He did suffer from periodic depression, not uncommon for someone who viewed this sad world so darkly. He was one of the greatest poet-songwriters of all time. I'v'e loved him and his songs and his poetry for over 45 years and feel like I've lost a brother. I'm sure there is a special place in Heaven for him, this brilliant, modest, self deprecating humanitarian. R.I.P Leonard my brother.

[@andriancurshen3586]

Yeah I've listened to it hundreds of times over the years and still don't fully understand it. The famous blue raincoat was actually Leonard's. Did he give it to his brother? The fact that he sign's the letter L.Cohen clearly shows clearly that he is talking about himself and his brother and not some other unknown persons. So did his brother sleep with his girlfriend Jane? Who is Jane. There are explanations out there but I never was satisfied by any of them. I can't remember if Cohen himself explained the song. But I love it. The way he produces that lovely tune on the line 'Jane came by with a lock of your hair' is pure songwriting magic. It can me cry if I'm feeling that way.

[@andriancurshen3586]

We don't have knighthoods here but we do have Medal of Freedom.

There was none like him and there wont ever be anyone else like leonard cohen.. A true masterpiece.. you fill my heart Sir Cohen with wondrous excitement and comforting pain.. I love you..

I'm bawling like a baby... If there was any single artist that shaped me, it was you, from your novels, to your poems, to your music. One of my first college friends, my first "grown up" friend was formed because of a mutual liking for you... .I learned about Lorca and Duende from you.. In my younger, handsomer days, I dressed like you....My dark optimism was learned from you...I learned how to seduce women from you...I learned to appreciate, honor and respect women from you... This can't be true... you couldn't have left us today... you shaped so much of me when I was young...You taught me how to be a gentlemen... and more importantly a gentle man. Bless you Leonard... Thank you for your words.... Rest well old teacher......but no... please no. (When I discovered Leonard in the 80's there were very few copies of his two novels, Beautiful Losers and The Favorite Game available. My college "Leonard friend" Tony Ferlito managed to find the first one, Beautiful Losers through interlibrary loan from god knows where. But the loan was like only for two weeks, and we knew that we wouldn't both be able to get through it in such a short time... so we torn... should we just steal it or what? This was Leonard's rare novel. We couldn't let it go... so instead we spent hours (and I really don't want to think about how much it cost at 4 cents a page) xeroxing ourselves each a copy, and painstaking laying out and gluing the sheets together into book form, then binding them together fittingly with cardboard and black tape. I remember having that book for years, re-reading it until it dissolved.... Luckily years later I found reprints... which now I no longer have.)

Mein lieblings song vom ihm... 🎸RIP..leonard cohen..⚘️

[@georgefanning8144]

His lyrics always speak of deep things to me and even now they make me wonder what he was trying to convey. Sometimes I get it and sometimes not so much!

1st time I Heard this song I Was amazed and touched and I Heard it for many many times but seeing him performing this masterpiece like that brought tears to my eyes , never in my life have I experienced such emotion from a song !! RIP L. Cohen you magnificent creature , thank you for this and everything

[@minatempest1707]

Thank you, Leonard Cohen for telling us your stories, our stories. You made me think of my life and help me to make something worth of it. You will be with us forever.

Leonard's music has been with me since about 1976 -so much wisdom, insight and understanding, I'm so glad I got to see him perform one time in 2008. Many many great poets, artists, writers and musicians have passed this year but Leonard and David Bowie were the voices of my youth. Farewell to the best of men

My heart is raining tears. Through this great artist's music and poetry I was able to work out the pain and suffering of my tumultuous teen years. Bless you LC and thank you for leaving us so much!

Dour and melancholy, sure, and honest. Thanks, L. Cohen. Last night I heard/saw Aoife O'Donovan at the Big Room in Chico, California sing this song and I closed my eyes and cried. So much to be sad about and so much to be thankful for.

His poetry and songs touch me deeply. He will surely be missed.
