Lyrics:
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver, climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man"
The funny thing about Cohen is, he actually knows what he's singing. He's not doing his old hits, without feeling, just spitting out the words. He's 80 and he's singing with all of his heart. Remarkable man.
+rikmets And his songs just keep getting better.We may not yet have heard his very best.An encouraging thought...
Can't say I agree with you on that. His early songs are still the best in my book. I mean, 'Suzanne' has never been topped, has it? Still, I'm anxious to see what he's gonna suprise us with next time! :)
+rikmets exactly - each one is an evolving masterpiece
+rikmets yeh exactly ..
@@rikmets it's 4 years later & I wonder if you've given Old Ideas, Popular Problems & You Want it Darker serious listens. No drop off there.
I agree that he should have won a Nobel Prize for literature. He is truly a master. His words are so profound! He leaves me in awe.
Открыла для себя Леонарда Коэна относительно недавно, уже не застав его в живых. Но как же я рада этому открытию! Слушая его песни, читая стихи, романы и биографию (написанную Сильвией Симмонс), влюбляюсь в этого мужчину все больше ❤❤❤Леонард - само влплощение Красоты❤ Благородный скромный джентльмен❤❤❤ Очень не хватает сегодня таких необыкновенных людей.
Leonard Cohen is a woman's man. I saw his last 4 concerts, in Bournemouth, England; Cardiff, Wales; London, England and Auckland, NZ, 2013. Good man with a great ensemble.. Brilliant man. Brilliant mind. You'll always be in my mind. You're my man!
Who can write about the relationship between men and women as elegantly and as respectfully as Leonard. The beast won't go to sleep. Thank you for the poetry dear sir.
❤
A man only
I don't care what anyone says man he has still got it !!!!!
+darling darlene snyder I agree! He NEVER lost it! And Justin Bieber gets millions of hits. Go figure...
+darling darlene snyder WHO SAID THAT! Link them to this vid... NOW
+alicia andsisters He's always had it.
+darling darlene snyder but nobody says he doesn't. every woman is fainting and flushing all over him like always.
Hello Darling
3:52 It´s not easy for a 80-year old man to get up like that without using some support. Beside being a great poet and songwriter, Leonard showed us, men, how to age with style.
We'll written friend
HAAAAAAH !!!!!! He Is Amazing!!..I LOVE LOVE ❤.....HOW HE ENDED!! STILL THE LIKES!! OF... A YOUTHFUL MAN!!..I WILL ALWAYS..❤LOVE YOU ❤LOVE YOU!! SIR!!❤☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
i am 47 and i can not do what he did as gracefully as he did. he was agile as fuck.
I can listen to him singing over and over again without getting bored ❤i love him
I agree ❤️
I love him so much 😢
This man should have won a Nobel prize for literature.
Gord Doctorow True that.
Yes, And I, unfortunately, just discovered him
In that case Kathy, welcome to one of the biggest true fan clubs in the world. You will not be fortunate enough to see him perform live, which was an experience I'll never forget. But he has left us with a wealth of videos and music tracks so just sit back, relax and enjoy them all, for they are truly wonderful.
It´s true he was nominated stood times - just as many been embarrassed that he never got the Northern Polare Prize in music --- many greetings from a warm and sunny Stockholm
Me too. :(
He breaks my heart with his poetic songs. I watch him move and then I can smile. Such a unique man. The world misses you...
I am 70 years old and ashamed to say I’ve missed out on this man all these years 🙏
This man was 80 and came spritely skipping onto stage then performed the most amazing concert with his heart and soul, amazing!
Il est super beau et très élégant ❤❤❤
At 95 I have been listening and admiring a fellow Canadian for over 50 years. Leonard you were number one in the Top 100 to give us joy!!
👏👏👏👏👏
💕 💕 💗
👌
Keep going
I'm 70 and been listening sense the 1970s first with Suzanne.
You are our man! So long Leonard!
I discovered this man late in my years and late in his career. I absolutely love him. His songs reflect my every mood. Beautiful, sad, foreign, jazzy,….lyrics are great. Music is cool and smooth. Could listen to him any time.
This man was in Manhattan in my youth and I'm glad I never crossed his path -- he was and is so seductive -- I'm just glad I wasn't another notch on his gun but as a performer and songwriter he's remarkable!
Eternal poet....
I'm 54years young and Leonard arrived the same night I smoked my first joint and I think he was more addictive than the drugs I've done since the drugs change every 5years or so but Leonard is still the best medicine for me thanks for 40 years thanks to Judy M for the intro in cannon row flat always remember the night of your birthday not sure which one but I think I was just 15 but buzzing with you and drinking bottle of vodka and smoking a big spliff with Leonard and the gift of the golden voice playing was the best birthday I ever had perfect night out for the couple of hours and then I had to get u to equas pub to get a pint of lager u had to buy though and you always did God bless you and Leonard Forty years ago remember it like yesterday lol will see you soon please god😮😅❤
How I miss you already Leonard. This is the reason women love Leonard. Guys! Wake up! If this guy can get women at the age of over seventy, then he has something going on that you don't. Watch and discover what "it" is. It isn't money and it isn't good looks. It's the poetry, the humour, the way he sings, and he doesn't take himself too seriously. That is sexy.
Maureen Wagg Well Said Maureen, except I think he has charisma, gentleness. and good looks. Not the most handsome, but still a nice looking man. I felt his 50s were his best voice wise and looks take care my friend
I totally agree with you. He was very good looking to me. I just know that he wasn't "beautiful" in the way some people look. Substance and style trumps looks anyway. He was all that to me.
Maureen that was so sweet. As a poet and a great soul and he wrote in the tradition of the Jewish book, the Song of Songs ( Solomon). His oh so sensual poetry was culturally rich, metaphorical, genuine, physical and soulful.
In other words it’s being Leonard Cohen 😂
Still the master. I've listened to him since I was a teenager and still love him. I"m in my 70's now.
No matter how depressed I am every single day, watching him sing this song, how he performed it, put a smile on my face the entire time. Bravo!
I'm only just discovering this incredible man's music. I'm overwhelmed and eternally grateful!
I envy You! You still have so much to find about this great Man! Enjoy, you'll have the time of your life!
May he bless you as he has blessed me. Leonard Cohen fits my definition of a saint completely.
Same here ❤️❤️
Me too. And happenstance !
I like music, rocking music, and I like those who, tell a story, thru their music. Bob Seger, Jackson Brown, Bruce Springsteen... Storytellers ! This guy is one! ! He was a comforting soul ! Word Smith, would be a given. Was November last week, and into December, I found his songs. Sat on a porch in East Garfield Park.. and just put the switch to play on... He's amazing. I can warm up my lungs to play my harmonica ! 🎶🎵❤️
Sad dawn !!! ....the great poet departed...Leonard Cohen... but leaves his words...his music... his songs
It"s true!!!....his music....will be with us always...**
But his music is for eternity...and his soul always is gonna exist in the universe. :)
Yes!!! You"re right!!!
Ignition
MY HUSBAND OF 28 YEARS,WOULD PLAY THIS FOR ME,,,,HE JUST PASSED,,,,AND HE WAS MY MAN,,I LOVE YOU GLEN,,FOR ALWAYS AND DAY
I am sorry for the lost of your love, Your Man, I feel so much love and beauty in your words, I thank you for sharing you've brought tears to my eyes. Bless your Heart.
You are still his WOMAN and will be his WOMAN forever. I wish you meet him in Heaven and you TWO be both your only MAN & WOMAN trenscending time & space. GOD bless you TWO, the eternal couple. LOVE never ends.
Que Deus abençõe a sua alma!
@@caiograco92 ,
Wow! this song has everything a women would desire. He did a great job and i love his voice. ❤
All I can say is there will not be another Leonard Cohen gracing this earth - that deep, raspy, gentle voice singing those those beautiful lyrics that HE penned and all his songs has such an honest, visceral feel to it - love him🖤😍
Your music will always remain in my memory ...
** R.I.P.
Sławomir Rauchfleisch , indeed so
Алена Весна
İ listen every day
exactly
I hope he is remembered as one of the greatest poets of Western civilization.
He was a genius
He must certainly will. We have a site of almost 39,000 people who keep his memory alive daily. Been going strong many many years and increasing day by day. Best wishes. 🥰🥂
@@MsSpock1 where's your site?
@@MsSpock1 Hasta tener solo eso sería muy bueno
He will
My son and I were supposed to interview him before he suddenly passed. It was a punch in the gut crying when we heard he passed away.
Genius. Nothing more to write.
It's 2020, and you're still the man!
And he'll wear a mask for you. 😻 Prophetic!
Always
🖤
😘
And he will
a true gentleman......poet sexy romantic.... the beast won't go to sleep.... rest in peace Leonard....you are missed..
😢😢😢😢 angels on Earth r i p
Theresa, Leonard Cohen had that ability we had been looking for ever since Sunday School, where he could talk about sex, and still keep it sacred. My church teachers did not have that ability. I had to go to this weirdo Jew guy, Leonard Cohen! :)
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 the song but when last did you play it
Just got hooked on him. LOVE him in this song. My favorite is "Dance me to the end of Love" I'm in love again. LOVE that "golden voice"!! RIP, Leonard. You are a class act.
Hello Theresa
How is it possible that I was not aware of this incredible man before!? I am in such awe of his gifts & talent. His words grasp my heart & penetrate my very soul. Watching him perform is a physical and emotional experience❣
Look the live DVDs. Great concerts
You got that right, my Sister, another Miss Kitty. Listening to him is a Very physical experience!
It's never to late to come to the Cohen party...
A few years back a I met him in Montreal ! What to say more ??
How was your deep sleep!
Leonard's voice soothes every nerve I have. A great man. Dearly missed.
A true classic. I love his voice and his passion at 80 more than I did when he was 50! And he was tonic for the soul even back then. RIP great philosopher who was able to speak profoundly to sexuality, politics and spirituality in the same sentence.
Love that song with Leonard singing it😊
❤
So well said and so true....grateful to listen to this man
Fell in love with him all over again when he took off his hat to say "I'll wear an old man's mask for you."
Me too!
I've been in love with his voice and style of music when I first heard it in the movie Pump Up The Volume with Christian Slater. His voice always makes me want to live some kind of beautiful tango dream in a red dress under a spotlight. His voice is like the soft trickle of warm water gently caressing my soul.
somehow over all the years i have never seen pump up the volume i need to watch it at some point
Leonard was an exceptional artist with exceptional songs. His songs will be here forever
pretty impressive for an 80yr old.. I hope people are cheering me at that age...
OK. I cop to it - I've been in love with this man for years. He'd better hurry, I'm pushin 70...
Just as me, my friend ! When he started with his first song Suzanne my friends told me "That´s you ! The first time i saw him on the Isle of Wight and the last 3 times I saw him here in Stockholm - 7 times within 50 years, it´s a pleasure and I also decided that his song Suzanne shall be played at my funeral - Sincerley another fan
+Susanne Rydvald. beautiful song as well as your name susanne hugs from mexico my friend
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves❤️ the song but when last did you play it
Hello Susan
Marianne was Norwegian, as I am. I'm entrigued by their love story. When she died, Leonard wrote that he was just small steps behind... And so he was. He died shortly after her. It was caotic, there were arguments, flower power, it was a true love story of two people that never really were lovers. Thank you so much. ❤ You won't be forgotten.
I was sleeping and heard this voice ... I thought I died and went to Heaven. You are the man.
I'm 54 and just learned of him! Why? I love this! He's great.
I didn't know of him until I was 60. I feel cheated. I did see him in Atlanta GA several years ago. Most outstanding performance I've ever seen. So I play his music a lot.
i guess you have lived in the bubble all this years ,maaaaam.
@@lucilleyork2428 hello Lucille
@@zalupa1000 it is not when we discover brilliance in life that makes US better people. It is what we choose to learn from it. I did choose to absorb the quality and learn from Mr. Cohen, while he was still living. I still enjoy his music although I don’t capitalize from it. He was much too brilliant to dare to insult God by trying to imitate, not to be mistaken for complimentary covers done by adoring fans. His old albums I collected in such a short window of time, they can’t be changed, rewritten or taken back without refund or apology by iTunes. He was an original so his music & memories with me shall remain original. Considering the rudimentary I’m replying to, was likely a temporary brat page but making an adult statement of a dying artful emotion Mr. Cohen and I shared, Loyalty. So regardless of an age difference, we clicked immediately, then I’ve always been and old soul so most of my friends were already dead when we met online, although never irl to make that clear for his family. We spoke deeply and I found him to be more aware than given credit for even today. Many of my poems and songs date back to the eighties or earlier, very passionate in my feelings of that time yet complete naive of my current knowledge. Doesn’t remove from their poetic passion or add to their lack of wisdom, yet current wisdom would have removed their spark and enthusiasm. Someone of my generation has arrived saying let’s spend some time together, you know, we don’t get to do that much so if it’s alright and you have time, let’s not waist another minute. Just friends I mean. Okay? Absotively! Happy weekend to all! 🎶
As a Lyricist, his ability to build and create a ballad will forever touch the hearts of all people. He is "Our Man" R.I.P.
He was also a very gifted and thoughtful poet!!
In spite of Hallelujah and Dance me to the end of love this song touches me to my deepest being. I cannot describe how this song makes me feel. I listen to it every few days. 💖
Ich sage es jetzt in Deutsch ich liebe ihn zu hören, bin ebenso jetzt 80 Jahre alt habe die Musik bei 1 Krankenhausaufenthalt für mich wieder entdeckt. Nach dem tot meines Sohns 19 93 hat mir das schon einmal sehr viel gegeben. In memoriam ole mother Brigitte
@@brigittevolzmann6448 halten Sie durch! Alles gute 👍🍀
so beautiful so beautiful
This song saved me during the roughest time in my life.
Totally know the feeling...
this song made me be the greatest man in the world for while.
same here
Some songs have the magic to do that. Will miss Leonard.

Bring us solace in our grief, help us understand - that you were only waiting in this stream of life, to go to sleep a younger man.
Редкое сочетание мудрости, проникновенного голоса, просветленной личности! Он родился обычным человеком и стараясь понять смысл жизни прошел путь самосовершенствования и стал кумиром миллионов!
Действительно, это так.
❤️❤️❤️
Леонард , родился необычным человеком , талант дан ему свыше , жаль, что уходят такие гиганты .
Beautiful..
Mr. Cohen first lp released December 1967 my mom expecting me bought it i have been a fan from the womb! 48+ yrs later and he only gets better! Mr Cohen has been chosen by the old gods Zeus and Hera they sent the muses to bless him in many ways! I Love Mr Cohen!
I turned 70 the other day. Leonard has been saving me with songs like this since I was 30.
Oh I felt this in my heart as soon as he started. I can only fight the tears until "I'd claw at your heart and I'd tear at your sheet, I'd say please" Then it's over
Just a little technical detail about this great singer. The last time I heard him in concert in Toronto must have been in 2013, and in I'M YOUR MAN he knelt on the stage (as he did in Dublin) and then got up without any difficulty. And he was 80 years old.
Goodbye and thank you Mr. Cohen
It 'a great loss ... Thanks Leonard, with love from Italy.
Luisa Toffoli we miss him....from palestine
indimenticabile from Australia
With love and sorrow.....descansa en paz Leonard 😢 from Mexico
Un poeta indimenticabile. Grazie Leonard da Bilbao e Roma!
Thank you, Mr.Cohen, you're always in our hearts. With love from Russia.
Just love listening to him and the stories he tells when he sings
GENIUS!! If ya wanna sleep out on the road I'll stear for you, if you wanna work the room alone I'll disappear for you! 😎
It's a shame that the era of heroic poet performers ended with him. Today feels like a musical wasteland. I hope this sounds like I'm old.
R.I.P. you were one of the last living legends.. thank you for your beautifull voice
"The Fundamentals Of Caring" Hahaaa this song was on this good film about a disabled guy I just watched on Netflix. AWESOME👌 Love Leonard Cohen.
Absolutle wonderfull, Pearl.... thank's You my friend R.I.P. Leonard Cohen for everything You have given to my heart, love and life, You'r fan, friend forever, from Poland ❤

Farewell. The second disaster to wake up with in two days... R.I.P. Leonard, I allways hoped to shake your hand once. x
I love this performance - and ohh his smile, wonderful.
His songs are so so full of feelings. They pierce my heart.
Rest in peace master, he left us a huge treasure with his music and poetry.
Hello , how're you doing, I hope you are doing fine. I'm David from Houston, Texas. Where are you from? You seems like a real Country girl 😊
돌아가셨다는게슬퍼😢
Always adored Leonard. My only regret is never seeing him perform live.
Me to
I've seen a lot of the Greats, but I was lucky enough to have seen this man live 3 hours and more, and there's no doubt it was the best live act I have ever seen in my life
I've seen him @ Budapest, in '09. We clapped him back two times at the end, he came back to the stage galloping like a kiddo.. The pure energy he aired, was 'Lust for life from Iggy Pop' x 10..! :'D
Here here!
Hello Helen
I'M BANGLADISHI I LOVE THIS SONG ... I'M YOUR MAN
Thanks to a figure skater named Gary Beacom doing an iconic routine to this song at the 1988 Olympics, I was introduced to Leonard Cohen. The skater didn't do well in the standings, but I bless him whenever I listen to Mr. Cohen...🙏🙏 So grateful that he did this final tour. He was a treasure. Thank you for all of it Leonard and God bless your beautiful soul ❤
You have always touch my soul. Farewell great poetry
My wife and I were passionate about the voice of Leonardo Cohen. Unfortunately, we lost him. In the Gods, he is the owner of eternal life!
His music pure poetry. So glad I saw him in concert in 2013 at the LG Arena Birmingham..His music will live on.Beautiful man Beautiful soul..loved him..RIP SIR.
Hello , how're you doing, I hope you are doing fine. I'm David from Houston, Texas. Where are you from? You seems like a real Country girl 😊
Excuse me.
Genius at work!
I love this guy.my wife adores all his music
She is a fine lady mr Cohen is a master
I'm a 77 yr old grandmom who has loved him since the late 60s. He still gets this lady hummin' so to speak. He is sexy as hell IMHO!
Mary, you are correct, he is very sexy
that's sweet, I am a 58 year old man, with a rubber band body and an incurable SB-38 wound, I refuse to drop, I refuse to stop - what I want to say to you Mary and as well for Poet Dancer- beauty never fades, only our eyes fail us, the veil we allow to obscure the vision that beauty is, and that is why you are also both - sexy as hell!!!
RaVen DaWn please
Oh Leonard... I am inconsolable! I knew you were leaving this incarnation soon, but I fervently prayed like a child that you would stay with us longer. Words fail to express my pain, and there is no balm for my crushed heart. Thank you, with all my soul, thank you for sharing your gifts and your magic with us. You are immortal. You are beloved.
That is so beautiful. You read my heart. Most beautiful soul music from the soul!❤️
Beautifully put.

Vu au Palais Omnisports de Bercy à Paris en 2009. Quel bonheur et quelle émotion !
One of the biggest regrets of my life is discovering him too late and never seeing him live.... What a class, what a voice, WHAT AN ARTIST.
Playing this Song right now for one of my very best Friend's, as she is about to leave this World - this was her favourite song of Cohen's ! She is one of those few people you are so glad that entered and passed through your Life ! Thank You Mr Cohen for giving her your music that made her so happy ! "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves a memory no one can steal." !
Spoken beautifully ❤️❤️I lost my brother who was a Lenord, fanatic, not the correct word. I hope you understand. When he came to Ireland for his first concert after many years, it was pure joy to listen to him. I saw him in his last concert 2013 in the O2. It was pure genius and so happy my brother and I could be there. Check out his "Save the last dance for me" from that concert. He was adored and loved by his Irish fans. RIP Sweet Lenord. I hope you and my brother are looking out the window together in the "Tower of Song" xxxx ❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶

I first heard the song on a skating special and I thought that is the sexiest song I've ever heard in my life I asked a friend who was in the music business who is that he said that's Leonard Cohen like I should have known I've never heard of the man before turns out my friend had several CDs which I recorded off of his love him and then my friend bless his heart took me to see him in concert it was awesome he had everyone in the palm of his hand best concert I ever saw
a truly brilliant man but somehow he never received the accolades he deserved while he lived. We must love and treasure his memory forevermore
He did receive the accolades he deserved. He's not Esbjorn Svensson. There are a million talented musicians who dont get any credit, so lets just steady the boat here. That doesnt take away from him being an excellent songwriter and lyricist.
Thank you for all you gave us. Dance your way home. X
Overwhelmed. Mesmerized. What a golden voice. No language to express. Simply amazing
This man is a voice, words, and the entire gift. I have very never heard his voice until now. Fantastic❤️
Hello Kathryn, How are you doing?
R.I.P z Krakowa Poland-I love You Leonard to the end of world!
Such a shame none of these live recordings seem able to capture the incredibly rich, deep and powerful bass his voice had in these live sessions later in life. I heard him in Tampa and his voice reverberated your chest. It was the most amazing concert I've ever been to.
Oh yes, we all are missing him🤗🤗🤗🤗
Leonard thank you for being born. You made my life much easier. Thank you, thank you, thankyou
