So sad to wake up to the news of Leonard Cohen's passing.
He really was leaving the table ...
Thank you for sharing your singular talent Mr Cohen, may you rest in peace.

at least he went out after releasing a pretty good album, guess it will jump back up the charts next week.

Whoa, his death surprised me. He just released a new album recently. Love his song "Hallelujah".

Another great Canadian icon is gone but not forgotten. He had an interesting life... Spent a month in Greece with Marianne thus the song, wrote songs for Judy Collins who coaxed him to perform live, CBC Radio has had extensive coverage all day...fitting for Remembrance Day...I wonder why his death wasn't announced until yesterday evening? He passed away on Monday. My wife said that the Jews perform quick burials, during daylight...
My all time favourite song by anyone ...Hallelujah, took Lenny 12 years to compose, he wanted to write the perfect song...I think he succeeded...such a beautiful poetic emotional song! Rest in peace Brother Leonard!
The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!

they've finally released details of his death if anyone is interested, nothing suspicious as expected basically, he died in his sleep after a fall, heres the article:
