he wasn't getting any better, but i do miss him. new moon is
bloody brilliant. i hope there's still more of his
unreleased stuff to be unearthed and given a proper release
(i'm too timid to venture into the thorny lands of
bootlegs).

Yes i miss him. Loved his music.
I had just discovered his music when he died. = (

I don't belive one second he killed himself. WHo the hell
stabs himself in the chest??? Twice!?!? His girlfriend did
it. They even found defence wounds on his arms.

Leonard Cohen is still alive & that's far more important.

easily

Cohen got more depth, wisdom and dry humour in his weiner
than those two combined.

elliott smith blows Cohen and Drake out of the proverbial
water. A musical genius from another era put in a time
machine.

Not that I dislike Cohen or Drake, but Elliot had a sound
that was pure gold.

I've never heard anything to match Cohen, certainly not
Elliott Smith.

Cohen's music is utter shit.

There. I said it.

C'mon now, you know that's not the truth.

i gave him some listen earlier this year i got the two
albums The Songs of Leonard Cohen and Songs of Love and
Hate.i thought it was kinda boring but i guess i dont get
the lyrics.it sounded kinda heavy and deep though.maybe i
will like it when i am older around 50 or something : ).

By the time you're 50 you'll probably be listening to
mainstream chart music to showcase your hipness.
