That Which Luke Is Listening To: Leonard Cohen, Popular Problems
I can only hope, that when I am an 80-freakin’-year-old man I am still with it to be hacking or writing, let alone singing lead vocals and writing new music. That is what Leonard Cohen just did, he released his new album the day after his 80 birthday. When most artist half his age have moved into being nostalgia acts, Leonard Cohen is still going strong. He is not cranking out classics (like Hallelujah, Suzanne, or Everybody Knows) quite as often, but this album is a step up from his last couple. His deep, deep voice sounds so alive. This is not the best place for a new listener, but damn a good listen all around.
