Re: FACT: Leonard Cohen is the greatest American songwriter of all time.
Cohen isn’t just a consummate poet and musician, but a guy who’s been scorched by wisdom and bears his wounds with grace rather than self-pity.

Re: FACT: Leonard Cohen is the greatest American songwriter of all time.
the success of songwriting goes hand
in hand with corrupt politics.

It's a good ole boy network.
And outsiders are not welcome.

I would tell you my story
but what's the use?

I will not sell my soul
to the devil just to get a royalty
check every month. And I will not
bend over for Juice cock any
time they get a hardon.

Publishing contracts are nothing
more than slave contracts.

Some just can't be bought.
I am one of them.

Scary,huh? He knew what he was saying.
Spent many many years living with Monks but had to return to work because his'financial managers' ripped him to death.
I would have have a much happier life if I had met one man like him.

Bob Marley didn't sell his soul to the devil, and if you think he did, you haven't listened to his words and are just assuming he must have to do something so wonderful

Bob Marley was empowered by a greater force than himself, and that force is the opposite of evil

Sweetie....the Devil has the power to assume a pleasing shape.
What Marley had was pure devil. Addict. Drugs...Voo-doo.
Sorry.
What Cohen has done is pure Heaven. Pure.Years and years in contemplitive meditation.

I'd call you a dumbass or a dickwad but I'm better than that.

you are distracting from

everything one does before
signing a major contract
has absolutely nothing to
do with what happens AFTER
they sign a contract.

so they have 1 hit after signing
their deal

and they disappear

this is the 1 hit wonders

Dude (or Dudette),you are gravely mistaken in the way the World works. Marley got exactly what he bargained for. Exactly. He got what he wanted.
Cohen made no such bargain and therefore was allowd to be all he could ever be.
No bargains with the devil on his part. Ergo...one is gracious and one is dead.

I was part of the biz for almost 2 decades.
I was there and saw it with my own eyes.
I know what I speak of.

Only the ones who sign their life away
get recording contracts. this is the
deal with the devil.

the only way Cohen could have been famous
was to sign his own deal.

for there are thousands of equally talented
writers in this world. I am one of them.
