Having listened to his emotive and gripping speech,you can guess what type of sensibility this man has.
"Dance Me To The End Of Love" is one of my favourite songs. Try listening to it with your eyes closed...and if emotion beat your body and soul,just then,you´ll have felt Poetry.
I do agree with both of you girls, it was an amazing speech he gave, no papers, only his memories, his heart and his voice. Obviously his voice... "Dance me ..." it is just a great song as many others, I've got a compilation, a kind of Greatest Hits or something, and they are all as touching and beautiful as this one. I guess he is one of the biggest poets in the 20th Century. Kurt Cobain, Nirvana's soul, wrote on one of his songs that when he died he would like to have Leonard Cohen's afterworld, referring to this, the impact he had on the world of music, poetry and art in general, the magnificence of his lyrics, and the magnificence of his voice ... C u tomorrow ;)
I just have watched this emotional speech and all I can say is if he is greatful to Spanish people , we are utterly greatful to his deep, moving and thought-provoking songs.
