Popular Problems

I realize that Leonard Cohen isn't for everybody, but his latest, Popular Problems, is a masterpiece.

Even better than The Future, if you can imagine that. 81 years old and he's still got it. I was privileged to see him perform live at the Fox Theatre 5 years ago. One of the best shows I've ever seen. If not for the fact that's he's Canadian, he'd be a national treasure.

A couple in front of us got up and danced together when he sang "Halleluia". You could tell the song held a special connection for them and it still brings tears of joy to my eyes remembering that. Music is pure emotion. Never forget that.

Never attribute malice to that what can be explained as stupidity.

Once there was a secret chord
That David played to please the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya...
