And then you heard, on Remembrance Day,
of the Poet who had gone away;
No more music in the dark to keep you warm.
For years to come you will recall
the music's death, the soldier's fall,
and your songs salute them both.
So: Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

The first Cohen song that I ever heard was "Everybody Knows", in Pump Up the Volume.

I feel that many singers just sing the words, and sometimes they're pretty, sometimes sad. It was like raw emotion poured out every time Leonard Cohen opened his mouth.
