Advantages: Mellow, Cool, music for the thoughtful Disadvantages: none
...the sixties. It is kind of a bluesy song about circumstance and how it plays in where you are in life.
I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who likes depth and substance in music. Leonard Cohen has a deep sexy voice just as he did in the sixties, and kind of stirs something in the soul.
At £8.99 from Amazon.com this really is a bargain for the quality of songs, backing, and overall presentation of what I call real music. This is the kind of music that stays in your collection for ever and to me is poetry set to rhythme which is how I feel all songs should be presented, whilst Leonard Cohen does it better.
Since the sixties Leonard Cohen has gone from strength to strength culminating with this superb album which provokes thought and questions about who you are and what you feel, and in many ways listeners are drawn into the words because...

Advantages: Yet another brilliant album Disadvantages: A little too mellow??
...one to be listened to in the car, with the windows or roof down powering through the country roads... (however, do drive carefully and safely :D)
7. Summers Gone
Sad and gloomy to be quite honest. Not one of my favourites, but being such a dedicated fan, I'll still appreciate it!

Advantages: "original" certainly nothing like it, that i have listened to. Disadvantages: difficult to appreciate at first

Favourite sound on the albumn would have to be Bubble, Pop, Electric, a naughty tune well thought about. Also love the fact that she works with many other artsits such as Andre 3000, Eve and the Neptunes.
the majority of the songs on the albumn are absolutely fantastic, however the albumn has been let down a bit by some of the mediocre songs that have been put on it....
