I didn’t realize Leonard Cohen sang hymns like this.

But this one is full of references to death and moving on. It’s so beautiful. If it is his last it’s a very fitting farewell.

I think my favourite track so far is “If I didn’t have your love” – I’d love to hear Van Morrison and Leonard sing it as a duet.

I don’t know if it’s his old age but his voice has also dropped another tone or two, adding so much extra weight to some of those lyrics.
The last track is almost like the unutterable, wordless expression of his soul – no more lyrics to speak, just music.
