    Cohen - leaving the table, and I'm out of the game

    Leonard Cohen just passed away.

    He has been one of my favourite artists for years. "Tower of song" is my favourite song, not just by him but just one of the best songs I have ever heard.

    He was 82 years old and just released a new album a few weeks ago "You want it darker", it is beautiful.

    Personally, I think that the unique and supreme delight lies in the certainty of doing 'evil'–and men and women know from birth that all pleasure lies in evil. - Baudelaire

    One of the songs (Hallelujah) was the musical theme of a recent Brazilian series. But they ignored the lyrics. It wasn´t a love story.
