A true poet. The first time I heard this song a couple months ago, I was captivated. Days before, I lost everything to a tornado, and this song spoke so deeply to me. “Do not dwell on what has passed away, or what is yet to be.” Times like these it’s so important to focus on the moment, take it all in so you can heal. This song is helping me so much through this dark time. “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.” ❤️
yes..his biography '' Im your Man'' is a Great Read also...an interesting gutsy life...very wise in the end when he became a Buddhist Monk..you feel that vibe in his song..his concerts, with the backup singers, are holy masses of goodness...yum..i d like to transport there, show me where the portal is...
50 or so years ago this man sang his way into my life, and his voice has woven its magic thread around my life since. Thank you fly free into the light.
What else is left for us,while the world is plunged in war and suffering,but,ring the bells as loud as possible.Our hope is the crack that enables the light get in.L.Cohen ,you will always be remembered,adored,loved.😂
I saw and heared him this year in Moenchengladbach/Germany by the light of a perfect sunset after a rainy day. What a striking artist, what an amazing gentleman! I was so touched! All my respect to him, who - the less loud he sings, the better he is heared and understood. may god bless him
The same for me. I never heard of him until June 2009 and I made it to 3 concerts in Ireland, Odyssey Belfast, Lissadell Sligo and Kilmainham Dublin, always in my heart 💚💚
I was at this show. Absolute magic: the mist lifting off Benbulbin behind the stage and a crack of light showing in at the start and the audience all dancing on the tiered stands by the end. Totally rapt with the whole show. Especially loved that he skipped on to the stage for each encore - let's see Bruce do that when he's 76!!
Oh! Thank you for telling your story. First time I see these videos, and I was just saying to myself how much I love the participation of this audience. My love for Leonard is more than 50 years old.
I was so touched by the mans reverence as if respecting the words of WB Yeats "I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams" Honoured to have been in the presence of greatness
The lyrics to this wonderful song are even more poignant for today. Thinking of Ukraine 🇺🇦-🎶🎶🎶 there is a crack in everything- that’s how the light gets in 🎶🎶🎶 thank you Leonard 💖
He is a light being. Today I realized that he is still in charge and keeps sending and anchoring his light upon us from his personal heaven. Thank you Leonard Cohen, thank you for visiting our planet earth :)
Excelente cantor.Os seus espetáculos eram longos e maravilhosos.Deixou uma quantidade de canções com versos lindos.Partiu, mas ficará sempre lembrado pelas suas canções e pela pessoa maravilhosa que era!
brilliant man. i hoped for much more music in the years to come, for much more poetry for the generations who still have to discover him. he'll never die, he just turned silent. i wish there was a treaty - between his life and the unyielding laws.
Thanks. What dignity, grace, generosity, respect! So sad, that no one had the vision to make a HD recording of this performance in this immense historic place. There are other Irish resonances in Cohen's great life: Judy Collins performed early some songs for which he will be remembered always and the Kate & Anna McGarrigle Canadian sisters.
Thank you ALBERT......WONDERFUL!!...stirring stuff!!.I adore hearing Leonard quoting poetry so eloquently, as well of course, as his emotional singing... his soft and oh so deep voice!!
Just seeing this now for the first time. I was seven rows from the front at this amazing gig. So glad that Leonard lost his money, as I would have never have got to see him those five wonderful times and also would never have got to meet him as well. He used to stay in the Gresham Hotel when he played Dublin. I will cherish my signed Guitar by the great man and all those wonderful memories. R.I.P Oh Great One!!
Vers quel lieu mystérieux est tu parti,quelle étoile à tu choisis pour te reposer a jamais?Tu nous a charmé pendant si longtemps et gardons au coeur une immense tendresse pour l'éternel voyageur que tu est.misia

¿Se atreve alguien a decir cual es la mejor canción de este caballero? Yo no. Es tal la belleza de su poesía, sus letras, su música y su bella, e inconfundible voz.
Thank you whoever recorded this! I wish I had realized what a great artist this man was earlier in my life, only discovered him really when he passed. Any of my Irish relatives or friends see this wonderful concert? He seemed to love Ireland except maybe not the weather so much!
Seen Leonard perform this track at the belfast Odyssey in 2009 & didn't think it could be bettered, I was wrong ! Fantastic video Albert , keep them coming & many thanks my friend.

I've always loved this Gentleman.. An absolute legend!
He was surrounded by so beautiful people.
Goosebumps listening to this.
He draws you in. You can't escape. He's a gift. I can't believe I didn't listen to him until a few years ago. He touches souls.
@Pamela Bergner Better late than never!

@@MSYNGWIE12 Agree. I found him by chance two years ago, and he neved left me since then.
A Wise singing Angel who touched souls. A softicated Gentleman with magical voice.
Sigue
I first heard this man sing when I was thirteen, every song is genius. He becomes part of your life. A beautiful soul.
love it how he made his tribute to other musicicians.. and vocals.. he made his songs so complete..by his preformance.
Was für eine Ausstrahlung! Schalom und DANK Leonard Cohen! 🔯👋💜🎶💫😢💜Diana zwahlen ch
Once you listen and hear what he's saying, you can only be captivated.
what an elegant poet....
I saw and heared him this year in Moenchengladbach/Germany by the light of a perfect sunset after a rainy day. What a striking artist, what an amazing gentleman! I was so touched! All my respect to him, who - the less loud he sings, the better he is heared and understood. may god bless him

God consider the fellings that he have created in our hearts and keeps him near you.
I am captured, I was there at Lissadell and I can see& hear him always. Thank you Albert Noonan 💚🧡🇮🇪

In Memory of Eva Gore-Booth and Con Markievicz
BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
The light of evening, Lissadell,
Great windows open to the south,
Two girls in silk kimonos, both
Beautiful, one a gazelle.
But a raving autumn shears
Blossom from the summer's wreath;
The older is condemned to death,
Pardoned, drags out lonely years
Conspiring among the ignorant.
I know not what the younger dreams -
Some vague Utopia - and she seems,
When withered old and skeleton-gaunt,
An image of such politics.
Many a time I think to seek
One or the other out and speak
Of that old Georgian mansion, mix
Pictures of the mind, recall
That table and the talk of youth,
Two girls in silk kimonos, both
Beautiful, one a gazelle.
Dear shadows, now you know it all,
All the folly of a fight
With a common wrong or right.
The innocent and the beautiful
Have no enemy but time;
Arise and bid me strike a match
And strike another till time catch;
Should the conflagration climb,
Run till all the sages know.
We the great gazebo built,
They convicted us of guilt;
Bid me strike a match and blow.
Wow.
milosc na zawsze
ther is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light get's in.
