Curious because he has been in the News of late, and from Spain as well, I surfed 'Leonard Cohen' on YouTube, finding this gem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttv5dyvtF4o&feature=channel_page Leonard, who collapsed onstage at his previous concert, is scheduled to perform on his 75th birthday tomorrow night in Barcelona. I'm still searching for last-minute tickets, and will go if I can. The man has class. Being a lifelong seeker, having devoted years of your life to being one of the world's great ladies' men, then having devoted an equal number of years to being a monk in a monastery, only to discover that your manager had stolen your retirement nest egg and that you had to go on the road again at 74 to pay the bills must be a bitch. Some would not greet that twist of fate with grace, much less with class. Leonard has class enough to still say -- and want to -- Hallelujah. My kinda seeker.
