Free Music Notes for Leonard Cohen: I'm Your ManFree Music Review: Leonard Cohen - a wizard in his art Hit: 5 Stars
the soundtrack is absolutely fantastic and, whether a fan of the Man or not, this CD should be purchased by all who have an interest in the diverse number of stars who complimented Him. In this way, they can see the type of diverse mastery they, too, hold in this musical world. I also attended the Came So Far For Beauuty concert in Dublin and was blown away by the artists present and their delivery of three and three quarter hours of music.

Free Music Review: Cohen is our man... again! Hit: 5 Stars
Excellent choice of artists to reinterpret and reinvent Leonard Cohen's tunes and classic lyrics. Martha Wainwright's, The Handsome Family's and Nick Cave's interpretations stand out --made me go back to my Nick Cave collection and look for his own interpretation of Tower of Song. Even those who might be a bit tired of Cohen's original mesmerizing, yet at times monotonous, vocals will really appreciate this collection. I look forward for more like this.
Free Music Review: Transporting Hit: 5 Stars
I saw the video of "I'm Your Man" which is half-documentary and half concert film, was blown away and immediately ordered the CD. While it's true that some of the singing is, shall we say, weird, most of it is just wonderful. That Cohen's poetry is celestial is indisputable, and it's nice that these young folks like it, too. A particular treat was Teddy Thompson's rendition of "Tonight Will Be Fine." Cohen's lyrics just kill.
Free Music Review: Leonard Cohen, I'm Your Man Hit: 5 Stars
Whether you already know this unique poet and artist or you are just discovering him, you won't want to deprive yourself of the gift of hearing his music through the voices of many other gifted artists, such as Perla Batalla, Bono, and Rufus Wainwright. It's worth it just to hear the Batalla/Christensen version of Anthem. And if you like this and want to hear more recent Cohen work in his own voice, I recommend Dear Heather.
Free Music Review: Great CD! Hit: 5 Stars
Both my husband and I love every song on this CD. The more we hear it the more we love it. The DVD is great too because you can see what the singers look like and how passionate they about what they are singing - some songs are so beautifully done it brings tears to my eyes. I wish "Hallelujah" were on the CD but for some reason they substituted a song that wasn't part of the DVD. Still, it's a great CD!
