Leonard Cohen

Nunca Canadá dio algo tan bueno como este tío: LEONARD COHEN. Poeta y cantautor judío nacido en 1934 y que aún vive (incluso da conciertos...). Sus canciones son pura lírica, es un poeta, hay que escucharlo atentamente e intentar entender lo que dice, y como sé que sois una panda de vagos, flojos, cómodos, etc... (donde me incluyo), he recopilado las 5 canciones que más me gustan de él subtituladas. Tomad y leed, porque esto es el alma atormentada de un viejo poeta testigo de la revolución de los 60 y 70, de los locos 80, de los explosivos 90 y de la aún incatalogable primera década de este segundo milenio.

1 - Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah

2 - Leonard Cohen - I'm your man

3 - Leonard Cohen - Chelsea Hotel

Esta canción está dedicada a Janis Joplin, pues tuvieron un romance algo extraño...

4 - Leonard Cohen - Suzanne

5 - Leonard Cohen - Thats no way to say good bye

Ésta no la he encontrado subtitulada, pero os dejo la canción y la letra y si os han gustado las anteriores, traducidla como lo hice yo (os dejo trabajo...) ;)

Letra:

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,

your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,

yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,

in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,

but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,

your eyes are soft with sorrow,

Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time,

walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme

you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me,

it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea,

but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,

your eyes are soft with sorrow,

Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,

your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,

yes many loved before us, I know that we are not new,

in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,

but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,

your eyes are soft with sorrow,

Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
