How Good Are These Leonard Cohen Performance Videos?

These Leonard Cohen 2012 Amsterdam performances videos by Albert Noonan are so astoundingly good that  you should

  • wake the children, prop them in front of the computer, and compel them to watch in order to embed within their minds and hearts a gold standard for great musical presentations.
  • finally approach those friends and family who think they don’t like Leonard Cohen’s music and beg/pressure/trick  them into viewing these videos. They could well begin appreciating his work, which would enhance their lives and bring world peace just that much closer to reality. And, if they still don’t care for Leonard Cohen’s music, at least you can give up the notion of ever winning them over – if they don’t like these, they are incapable of liking Leonard Cohen’s work and, regardless of the profound psychological flaw or neurological deficit that caused this pathological state, deserve our compassion.
  • watch them yourself a dozen times or so today – both for the sheer indulgent pleasure and to remind yourself precisely why you love Leonard Cohen.
