Leonard Cohen 1934 - 2016
 

I find it surprising no one on Revscene spoke about Leonard Cohen's death.. the Canadian singer died yesterday.

With today's political climate, I find his song Everybody Knows hits right at the gonads

I built my house beside the wood
So I could hear you singing
And it was sweet and it was good
And love was all beginning
Fare thee well my nightingale
'Twas long ago I found you
Now all your songs of beauty fail
The forest closes 'round you
The sun goes down behind a veil
'Tis now that you would call me
So rest in peace my nightingale
Beneath your branch of holly
Fare thee well my nightingale
I lived but to be near you
Tho' you are singing somewhere still
I can no longer hear you

It was posted in another thread yesterday.

So you create a thread to pay some homage to a great Canadian artist and instantly warp into political bullshit? Wtf is wrong with you?

Political bullshit is the new black.
