Lame.
this sounds so bad. like not even bad songs it just sounds so bad. why does he sing like that. why is the synth like that. why is nothing about these songs interesting
Somewhere on this website there’s a list of the lowest-rated albums. They are all weird and noisy. Some of them are good, but weird and noisy albums are sailing into the wind of broad acceptance, and I don’t think those artists would be too concerned about it. It might be part of their point. This week I listened to Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart. I can’t remember if TMR is on that low-rated list, but it’s a classic of the critical/popular taste split. It’s provocative and actively resists pleasant listenability, and it’s 80 minutes which makes it tiring, but it’s also interesting, humorous, sincere, and, importantly, made by a band of musicians. Yes, weird musicians. Should you fire your wedding’s string quartet and get these guys? Maybe not! Tons of weird artists on this list that aren’t for everyone, it’s no problem at all. Also this week I drew the extremely short straw of Electric by the Cult. Those poor mopes sold their souls for the chance to be booed off the stage opening for the band who opens for the band who opens for Ratt. But they are recognizably a band, with guitars and a singer and songs (which aren’t good, at all), and a producer you’ve heard of. There are lots of ways to be musicians. Leonard Cohen is not doing any of them. Leonard Cohen is not a musician. I’d bet LC thinks music is silly and probably a scam, so who cares. I suspect he has a disability which prevents him from seeing the difference between music and what he does. He makes records like someone who has heard of records, but hasn’t listened to any because it’s beneath him. Because, you see, he’s A Writer. I will grant that he writes, and will not spend many cycles trying to convince you he’s a bad writer, though he is. Because I am a *music listener*, appeals to purely literary merit are category errors. Not to say I don’t respect the word part, and I love some very wordy artists. And there’s nothing wrong with being words-first; Bob Dylan (a musician) e.g. But music needs to be music foremost. I don’t need the words to be good, or in my native language, or present. Every positive review of LC praises his poetry. Super. Put the poems in books and sell the books in a bookstore. Leave music alone. If you take LC out of these records and put in Shakespeare, nothing happens, it still sucks. (I’d wonder how someone so talented has such poor taste in other areas; this isn’t a problem here.) OK, I can’t resist. Did anyone get all the way through Jazz Police? 5star poetry admirers, which line is better? 1) Jazz police are looking through my folders; 2) Jazz police are talking to my niece. He can’t (won’t?) sing, there’s not a melody in the whole set, his Horniness Expert schtick is eww, the instruments are picked at random, the backup singers are a premonition of AI. He thinks he’s a mediocre poet who’s cannily slumming in music as a career, but music isn’t a slum, jerk.
- this is so late 80s - Not a fan of the first song, didnt finish - this is badddd - I literally hate this I’m not finishing it
I do not understand the appeal of this guy at all. This was awful.
Like a bad Bowie on some kind of drug trip. I could barely stand it. 1/5
Oh ffs please put something decent up here
Imagine a Pet Shop Boys album but instead of Neil Tennant singing, it's Neil's gravel-voiced grandad on vocals, talk-singing his way through the numbers while struggling to keep pace with the rhythm. Also, instead of Chris Lowe's snappy synthesizer hooks, it's just a series of bland chords strung together. Toss in a trio of backing vocalists to try to prop up grandad and voilà, you've got Leonard Cohen's does-not-work-on-any-level *I'm Your Man*. (You can also tell this album is self-produced because Cohen's voice is *way* out in front in the mix, and apparently no one at the label had the guts to tell him "no".)
me niego rotundamente
Shite
Yo creo que Leonard Cohen ha tenido un estilo distinto al de este álbum en otras épocas y creo que esos otros estilos me pueden llegar a atraer más que este.
This is Leonard Cohen?! I always hear his name talked about in such reverence so it was a surprise to hear him casually drawling over some corny 80s backing tracks. This was terrible.
Absolutely awful. I assumed he was a singer but he just talks to music. Weird.
How this reached #1 on any chart I'll never know. God what a bad album.
Just boring drivel and Jazz Police. Maybe some of the lyrics are good, I don't know. Maybe "guys like me are mad for turtle meat" has poetic depths I can't comprehend.
1/5
Ach Du Scheiße. Das ist ja noch schlimmer als das Songs of Love and Hate Album das ich im Juni hören musste. Da fällt es mir schwer einen Stern vergeben zu müssen.
Cohen's voice has so much potential for some high quality music but his singing style feels so uninspired and there's not much going on if you take the vocals out.
Fucking awful.
This low, slow talk-singing is very grating. I know he has many fans but I don’t know how.
A trudge of melancholy awfulness
This guy confuses me so much. Sometimes he's brilliant, but other times he's (seemingly) intentionally bad. There's a couple of decent songs on here (Manhattan and Everybody), but apart from that, terrible. Also creepy
I don't know what's more surprising: that this was apparently a number 1 record in multiple countries, or that someone thought that anyone who had thus far blissfully missed this abortion *needed* to hear it before they died. I can practically smell the pink neon tube lights, hair gel, and suit jackets with massive shoulder pads oozing out of my headphones. This is bad.
Listened to this album years ago because a girl-friend of mine liked it. It was OK then and it's OK now. But nothing special.
"No you are not." This would have been my concise review, but it was already taken :( Well, more words, then: this album sucks, mightily. I could write it off as "I don't like it", maybe mention the odd laugh I got out of it, but recently the generator happened to show me two albums from the same era by that other North-American singer/songwriter/wordsmith with a gravelly, raspy and dark voice who inhibits a not dissimilar spot in music and hey! I've just, mid-sentence - no lie! - discovered Cohen had written a poem about him! Whaddayaknow! Here's an excerpt: "[...] his music begin—it is so beautiful and original and sophisticated—so much better than mine—[...] You see, Leonard, it's because you made stuff like this, duh (No offense, R.I.P.). But seriously, borrowing the Every Breath You Take guitar? The Shine on You Crazy Diamond synth? And then the most generic brass preset played by some keyboard's automatic accompaniment feature? Compared to what - you may have guessed it - Tom Waits was up to during that time, it's all so trivially and dime-store corny, including some of the lyrics, I can't believe it's supposed to be a sincere expression. The fucking CASIO™ Eurostile font on the album's cover being the icing on this lazy 80s shitcake. What a package. After the great "Songs of Love and Hate", the boring "You Want it Darker", "I'm Your Man" makes Leonard Cohen the new entry to my profile's *Controversial Artists*.
Why is this even on the list? Who decided this?
didn’t rlly like his voice or the music lyrics were ok
I don’t even need to listen to this to know I’m going to hate this. 40ish minutes later: yep that was ass. Please, no more Leonard Cohen.
Not for me. 1/5
Dirge city. The song Ain't No Love was a horny dirge. Made me antisexual.
I’m Your Man - Leonard Cohen Jesus H Tap Dancing Christ I absolutely HATED this. Honestly it might be my least enjoyable album so far. Two Cohen albums so far and I am not a fan.
Meh
sorry but no - just sounds like the worst of the 80s
Turns out he’s not the man for me.
Jesus this is terrible. I don’t mind Cohen’s monotone drawl but I mind how cheap and disinterested everything else sounds.
Liked the music part of it but the vocals were not it
There are unbelievably five — five! — Leonard Cohen albums on this list, and this one is my third unpleasant listening experience because of his annoying music. I can’t understand why some artists get so much prestige, like Elvis Costello and Brian Eno, just to name a few examples. For these and other reasons, this list has completely lost its credibility! Once again: unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable, and unbelievable!
Not a fan of Cohen's singing-speaking, and adding 80s backing vocal/synths isn't helping. Even if you want to be like, his lyrics are good, some of the lyrics were creepy/cringy af. Did not enjoy this one at all, 1*
Not my cup of tea. Like Cohen as songwriter but this album is just not good for my ear.
Not for me.
boring
How tf is this on the list??!??
I feel like I’m supposed to like this. I appreciate that he’s an excellent lyricist. But this album was all the bad 80s things with terrible singing.
Wtf
MIDI instruments have a lot to answer for
Cheer up, mate. The 80s electronics don't help, dating the sound somewhat.
So weird. Very 80s, he doesn't really sing. ugh
Dude was talking in tune. Did not enjoy this one. Instrumentation and backgrounds were decent, but man the thing I focus on is an artist's voice, and I did not like this.
Bad karaoke to a musical no one wanted. The only upside to Leonard Cohen's "singing talent" is, how easy it is to tell how terrible his lyrics are.
1.5 - Bad
Ugh, this shit's dumb
I will actively avoid listening to this again. Sounds like an aging artist trying to stay relevant with synths, and missing the mark
I listened to this with Jordan, he poisoned me against it. I just spent the whole time laughing. More like 1.5 stars.
Shit
Couple of decent songs but good god is it a slog
Haha Leonard Cohen goes 80s pop. Even weirder than I thought possible. I remain beyond baffled how Leonard Cohen has like 8 albums on this list. I hate him with every fiber. 1/10 (0.5/5)
Just as boring as usual
no
This is terrible. Old man whispersinging. I really feel like there is nothing redeeming about this album. Why is this here?
I hated every second of this record’s truly sinister vibes. It’s intimate to the point where it makes my skin crawl. Step away from the mic, Leonard.
This is extremely bad 1/5
I had to check that I was listening to the right album and not some 1980s Synth-Pop album, but then he started singing. Horrible up-beat 1980s Synth-Pop music with Leonard Cohen's depressing vocals - the worst of both worlds.
well this was surely interesting 😅 i’m learning throughout this project i am absolutely not a fan of leonard cohen. “take this waltz” was the only song i even remotely liked. couldn’t even finish listening to the title track as lyrics were … not something i enjoyed 😅 “jazz police” was a song that gave me many laughs 😆 on a second listen…. “first we take manhattan” actually slaps 😆 it’s stanky and i am finding myself head bopping haha 1.7/5
good voice but 1
I have no idea what people were thinking in the 80s. The music has aged so badly that I can't hear anything else besides a Casio running into a million dollar soundboard.
Only ever aware of Suzanne by this man, but he has been the but for many a comedians comic quip. It started off OK, he has a good voice, but it just got more and more depressing as it went on.
After hearing the other Cohen album on this list, I wasn’t expecting that opener! Knew the song, but hadn’t expected such a camp disco vibe. The rest returned to the form I expected and was morosely dull.
I love J&MC's cover of 'Tower of Song', it's a bit of a wall of noise, like a lot of their songs. So I was hoping for great things from Leonard's alleged return to form. I didn't get them, it wasn't very good, the cheesy synths made it worse. I don't like poetry either, so he was on a hiding to nothing.
Not for me
Yo...Dimery! Bruh! I already made it perfectly clear that I do NOT enjoy the music of Leonard Cohen. You seem to think that forcing his entire catalog upon my ears will change my mind. It won't. In fact, each successive album makes me dislike it even more and makes me kinda angry. I'll give this album .0001 stars only because Concrete Blonde's cover of "Everybody Knows" was pretty OK. Otherwise, zero stars.
Forgettable late 80s synthpop, and Cohen's voice is hilarously bad. It is not completely unlistenable as some other albums, but I don't want to give it a 2 which is only 2 stars away from albums that are great and many times are almost 5 star albums. So yeah, I'm giving this 1 star.
This was horrible. Like he was trying to sound modern with synthesizers and electric drums. I feel like he tried to write a rap song on “jazz police”……ugh!
Uhhh okay.
Ugh. Out of key talking accompanied by simplistic electronic music.
I know that Leonard Cohen is a Canadian treasure...but for poetry. I find this so difficult to listen to. The music, mostly electronic, is absolutely terrible. That voice. Let's just say Cohen's talk-singing baritone is not my favourite. First We Take Manhattan is a great song...as long as Cohen isn't singing it. Same goes for Everybody Knows.
Offensive to music and humanity
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
Great songs with very poor singing. Even worse than Dylan.
Thanks I hate it
Did not age that well in my opinion but it kinda grows on you. You have to have an appreciation for Cohen's "singing". I only know some of his later songs and the songs on this album are kind of forgettable with a few exceptions. Favorite Song: Everybody knows
It's nuts hearing this after listening to the milquetoast Songs of Leonard Cohen. 80s synth music is shockingly bad. Sorry not sorry!!
I never got into Leonard Cohen's music. Like in Bob Dylan's case, I always thought the covers were way better. He creeps me out
What the fuck was that!? I'm clearly not the target market for whatever this is. Creepy weirdo talk-singing about nonsense while cheesy 80s synth-pop plays in background is not my cup of tea.
😴
I need to call electrician for this unnecessary electro
Whats the obsession on this list with singers who can't sing???? who enjoys this? honestly this was awful. WHY IS THIS ON THIS LIST????
First line in the album sums up my thoughts about seeing another Leonard Cohen album appear: "They sentenced me to 20 years of boredom"
I am laughing and how hilariously bad Leonard Cohen is.
They sentenced me to 41 minutes of boredom.
wow. i mean good for him but it’s corny af
Awful. Just awful.
He's past his prime at this point. Pretty bad. Sounds exactly like somebody trying to hard to be good again.
fuck I can't listen to this shit. it's like very boring + very unpleasant voice which seems to be like in a some strange porno or smth
Oh dear. Great lyrics and songwriting drowned in 80s production. I really wish somebody did a reworking of this album. Jo Cocker did a cover of First we take Manhattan which isn't going easy on the adult contemporary production, but it still stands so tall above Cohen's original in that regard, it's not even funny. And the whole album is like that, and First we take Manhattan isn't even the worst offender (that title goes to Jazz Police). I thoroughly enjoy Cohen's last four albums, but this is such a hard pass for me... So... Dear estate of Leonard Cohen, can we have a more timeless rework, please? Because there are some good songs here, buried beneath all that shitty production.
Fucking bad. I see many reviews praising the lyricism, but I don’t get it. A lot of the lyrics are creepy. I don’t want to hear an old man growling lustfully about naked women over shitty 80s synth. The silver lining is: I’m only 6 months in, and I’ve already suffered through 3/4 Leonard Cohen albums on this list. I got them out of the way.
Wow, I like Cohen's Best Of from the late 70's, but this 80's stuff is crap.
No
Ugh, in comparison to some 1980s artists who produced timeless music, this is so dated. The tinny production brings back memories of big hair, neon colors...mass-produced aspects of the 1980s I'd soon forget.
The best piece of uncomfortable shit ever.
Not the Cohen album I wanted or needed
Awful. Casio music. Crude and lazy lyrics. Bad production.
UGHHH, another one!?! How many of this creep's albums are on this damn list? All are garbage. This one is just 80's tinted garbage amassing to the masterpiece of a dumpster fire that is the song "Jazz Police".
Creepy, would not be surprised if a sex offender.
I know Leonard Cohen is a Canadian legend but I think I like his songs better when they are covered by other people. It's a little too poetry heavy for my liking. The 80s synth instruments are very heavy handed on this album too...
I don't understand the appeal of this album. In any way. I would rather listen Leonard Cohen eat the banana that's featured on the cover for 41 minutes than listen to this ever again.
What in the actual fuck did I just listen to? This is beyond terrible. This sounds like the High School class-clown participating in the talent show as a goof. I wish I could give it 0 stars. Leonard is a great poet, but oh man should he stick to that and leave music alone if this is what he has to offer. I'm honestly at a complete loss to find a single redeemable aspect of this album. This doesn't even sound like a failed experiment. It simply sucks.
It’s too theater performative to for my taste.
Horrible
Didn’t actually listen but I’m just not into this guy
I know this is considered a masterpiece, but I thought it was cheesy in a very 80's way.
i love weird stuff but not this kind of weird
Negatives
What did I just listen to. While the lyrics were good, the 80s synths just killed my taste for this album
1.25/1.5 not for me. I like the harmonies and come aspects. Idk man he ain't that good
Is this guy actually singing or just talking cringely?
I am going to kill Leonard Cohen.
пидор без голоса поёт околошансон с продакшеном 80х срань ебаная
He may be good at poetry but I don’t give a fuuuuuuuuuck, this album stanks!
This is miles worse than listening to Dylan's endless harmonica. Was the budget only good enough for a children's Casio keyboard?? I give it a star solely because by the end I was laughing hysterically at how bad the music production of this album is.
I only liked Take This Waltz.
Leonard Cohen is one of those musicians that you expect to be floored by. I wouldn't listen to this album again. It was a difficult listen. Made me uncomfortable. Jazz police? Wanting to see someone naked? The production is so 1980s, cheesy backing vocals, lift-music style instrumentals, fade-outs, and his vocal delivery is.... idiosyncratic. He sounds like Tom Waits but it's earnest and sort of half-singing, half talking. Not my cup of tea.
I understand that Leonard has an iconic and great voice, but it's hard for me to get into his music.
Nope. Nope and nope. I'd rather listen to Bob Dylan on repeat.
Its like if Sadness from Inside Out were in charge of a slam poetry evening. I'm surprised I made it out without topping myself.
I really don’t get the appeal.
das klingt wie die musik von william shatner nur slightly besser
Om man spelar den baklänges så hör man tydligt:”Hjälp! Jag har blivit kidnappad av Taco!”
Bit weird... I don't like his voice that much, it's okay but it's not as soothing as I thought it would be.
OMG! Leonard Cohen does 80's musak including cheesy backing singers and even a Kenny G sax? This is a terrible moment in a great man's career. This is so wrong in so many ways and even Leonard's words are drowned out. I can't even blame the music label or producer since it's evident this was 100% his idea.
Many people love his lyrics, but man, the music is just straight bad. Some of the songs are painful and, even if they had the most moving lyrics of all time, I’d avoid. Sorry Leonard!
I think we need to get this album to the Ukraine as a WMD
I don't like Leonard Cohen 1.5
Tears streamed down my face when I saw we had him. I literally cant listen to this man without dying his voice not so slowly kills me.
o my GODDDDDD i am not listening to any more of this man's shitty music AGAIN 4 of his albums?!?!?!????? GET BENT and and and on this one his horrid MIXED WAY UP FRONT IN YOUR FACE vocals get treated with sequencers, the worst of 80s keyboard sounds, and drum machines? Also this dead emporer was buried with no clothes: these lyrics are embarrassing. I need to be more clear: this is utter utter shit. 0/10 and chafed that I can't give 0 stars
Shite. Rubbish vocals, dull lyrics, terrible music, weird arrangements and instrumentation. How is this even on the list?
1. Jesus christ
Not really to my taste, I have to admit it was hard not to bail out early.
I was digging the intro on the first track, and thought I might enjoy this album, however once the vocals started I knew I was in for a rough one. Pretty much every track was ruined by the vocals and I couldn't get past it.
какой-то стремный старый мужик речитативом говорит horny штуки. мне почему-то жалко его и я не особо верю в то, что он поет… кринжулик. музыка приятная, может более ранние его альбомы лучше, хочу послушать.
Oh god, what do people see in this guy?! His delivery is so wooden. Thank the lord that this is the last of his albums that I need to suffer through.
The album where every song sounds exactly the same and only one of them, "Everybody Knows", is even listenable. Subtract one star for the cover photo where he's eating a damn banana.
It's brooding in a way that I just don't enjoy. His voice also just is not great
Old
Horrible crap
Je m’explique bien mal pourquoi cet homme est un intouchable. Je comprends que certains textes sont très bien ficelés et je suis d’accord qu’il a tout un tone. Par contre la prod de cet album est tellement cheap... On est dans le midi vite fait. Ça sonne comme un démo. De plus, on dirait qu’il n’a pas décidé de la rythmique de son vocal avant d’enregistrer. C’est super aproximatif.
Sigh, another Leonard Cohen spoken word album. This time with shitty synth loops. I swear I remember most of these beats from the drum presets on my 80's Casio toy keyboard. I'm your Man was #7. Wanted to give this a 2 for having the ambition to attempt a song in 3/4, but then Jazz Police came on, and it was a wrap. They sentenced LC to 20 years of boredom, and he tried to do the same to us.
The kind of music you'd here walking to an empty dive bar in suburban Australia. One man up front with a karaoke backing track and an old Casio keyboard playing for a room of drunks and exhausted workers. I honestly thought it was a joke at first.
dull, his voice is so depressing
Fav Song: Tower of Song
Kinda sucks. I should hope this is not the album that people fell in love with. 1
Really doesn't do much for me. 80s electronica and comical backing singers.
This asshole is the reason the common man thinks they can go on some TV show and become famous. How the hell does this lack of talent make a list? I wish that banana choked the fucking life out of you Leonard!!!
No, you’re not. You’re annoying, man. Dieses Album (und alle anderen von ihm im übrigen auch) hat in dieser Liste aber auch gar nichts verloren. Ich betrachte diesen Listenpunkt als einen der absoluten Tiefpunkte in diesem Projekt, schrecklich, eine einzige, unerträgliche Katastrophe. Kaum jemand an diesem Projekt ist so derartig überschätzt wie Leonard Cohen.
Ha! Gaaaaaaayyyy!
This was a slog. I did not like this 1 bit. I’m sure the lyrics are good if you pay close attention but the music sucked. At least with Dylan you get some nice acoustic guitar sounds for the most part. I’m truly baffled at how this could be a comeback album. Who heard this and thought “wow this is what I missed!”? I’ll pass.
Awful. Cohen's worst album? ((Probably not, and I'm a fan!)
Didn't enjoy. Maybe later albums better.
I refuse to listen to any more Leonard Cohen. I hate his music.
This is bad music. This guy is a revered singer-songwriter!? How do I go back to only knowing about "Hallelujah?" There were a couple of mildly tolerable songs in the middle, but the rest was so objectionable that it should be stricken from musical existence, not celebrated as one of the 1001 albums you must listen to. Maybe you don't know brilliance unless you see/hear its opposite?
This album feels like the musical equivalent of walking into a modern art exhibition and being told that a wadded up gum wrapper is the hottest new art piece. I don’t get it, which makes me angry because I feel like I have been conned. How is this the same man that wrote Hallelujah?! This album is a con job, it has to be. I was sold a bill of goods when I saw the name pop up and what I got was a saxophone laden eighties dumpster fire in which Cohen doesn’t sing so much as recite bad spoken word poetry.
The last chance department at JCP. Appliance shopping at Sears. A graphic T display at Dillards. ‘If you want a lover I’ll do anything you ask me to. And if you want another kind of love I’ll wear a mask for you. If you want a partner, take my hand, or if you want to strike me down in anger here I stand. I’m your man.’ I believe this lyric sums up pretty much everything I don’t like about Leonard Cohen. I find his whole approach toward women and sex to be juvenile, and his unhealthy obsession with the end times and divine judgment tiresome. Unless this is all satire, and I’m missing the whole point. Any of which I might be willing to work past if the music was good. But the tunes on this LP mostly sound like department store muzak crossed with bad 80s new wave dance music. All that and a drab album cover, too. I don’t mind ugly art when its serving a higher purpose, conveying some deeper, heretofore illusive truth. I do mind dumb art, though. Look, I know that Cohen is the darling of the critics, as much as I’m aware of the devotion of his peculiar fans. I’ve just never quite figured out why, nor does this LP make me want to. ‘And I can’t forget,’ Cohen sings on the second to last song of this interminable recording, ‘but I don’t remember what.’ I can, Leonard. And I do.
I didn't enjoy this one at all.
I'm having a hard time taking some of these seriously. This felt like a parody album. I have no idea who would listen to this for enjoyment but that's not me. And I can't even describe the shock when I realized this was the Leonard Cohen of Hallelujah. With synth. Singing about sex.
Ugh no. Terrible
mid, there was a song I think in the middle that lit the mood up a bit but that's it
Did Steve Branson have a mid-life crisis and cut a sad 80s country blues album? This is terrible! - 1 star
Mediocre music. With added dreary voice. And then it's all just the dreary voice
Not a fan of Leonard Cohen.
Surprisingly dull vocal
i cannot listen to this
L'ascolto di questo album l'ho trovato abbastanza faticoso. In primis il sound '80 che come ormai sapete, eccetto alcuni casi, a me non piace. I testi non mi hanno trasmesso molto (forse perché qui non era in fin di vita), anzi li ho trovati anche abbastanza banali. La voce monotona si è accollata. Ho trovato interessante il fatto che su "I'm your man" il pezzo finisca con un fade out mentre ancora canta, come se sapesse che l'ascoltatore, ormai stanco di sentire la sua voce, voglia abbassare il volume . Oggi mi sento cattivo! 1
Rape Music
Okay I guess this is from later in his career, but he sounds like he's old (first album on Spotify is '67). Maybe enjoyed it more as I got further into it? OMG I'm dying laughing at the beginning of Jazz Police. Ok maybe all of Jazz Police. What in the hell is this song.
weird cunt
No
This was completely different from what I expected. Some of the songs on here are the most 80s things I've ever heard. It has not aged well. I knew Everybody Knows but only because there's a cover of it that I really like. I think it's a very well written song but the original version makes it seem like a terrible song. I don't really have anything positive to say to be honest. A bit batshit in the worst possible way.
Boring old man slow so singing
Hawt Trash
Starting off strong with the late 80's sound. You know keys and drums machines. I know you know. I have to say that I'm not really into this album (the backing vocals/choir are slightly annoying) and Leonard Cohen, but maybe someday I will find some of his music that I like, maybe not.
20years of boredom!! Your songs Certainly show it!! Crap crap big pile of stemming shite........2 songs is all I could listen 2 🤮
I’m sure the lyrics are profound but I can’t get into the dirge. *
Zzzzz...
Leonard Cohen
Paso
That was a fever dream. Jazz police? Seriously?
Not for me. A weird album with way too much 80’s synth.
