Il grande Leonard Cohen con "Old ideas" e la giovane Lana del Rey con " Born to die". Sono loro i protagonisti assoluti delle charts di questa settimana, che per il resto continua a dare ottimi riscontri per l'inglese Adele ed il brasiliano Michel Telò , ancora padrone della classifica dei singoli. In arrivo anche il nuovo di David Guetta , già primo in Gran Bretagna. Sotto, i numeri uno. Sopra, " Lakehouse" degli islandesi Of Monsters and Men . [...]
It should be expected that with old age comes wisdom. Leonard Cohen takes this obvious statement a giant step farther on Old Ideas. In Cohen's case this wisdom leads to self-acceptance ultimately putting a restless mind to bed. Themes throughout the album often revolve around Cohen openly recounting his flaws, but doing so in a way that seems to be more therapeutic than remorseful. "Show Me The Place" is personal highlight from the album, a haunting conversation between a man with open arms speaking to his God. It's a conversation of faith, not one of desperation, but a calm [...]
Derek Branscombe '70s-styled radio rock - the sort marked by tight multi-part harmonies, guitars that go from chunky rhythms to smooth leads like the peanut butter aisle, and a laid back sort of pop songcraft that's inviting like a pitcher of beer on a hot Summer's day - has been back in style lately, and no one's done a better job of repping it locally than Zeus . Their 2010 debut Say Us won them plenty of fans both across Canada and abroad. Somehow amidst all the touring [...]
La revista británica Mojo en su más reciente edición presentó un tributo a Leonard Cohen, con un compilado de covers de su clásico disco Songs of Leonard Cohen , publicado en 1967. El compilado incluye nuevas versiones de las inmortales canciones del canadiense, que como les hemos contado , este año vuelve con su duodécimo trabajo titulado Old ideas . El álbum de covers incluye a Cass McCombs ("Teachers"), Field Music (Suzanne), Sisters of Mercy (Liz Green) y Bill Callahan ("So long Marianne"), entre otros.

Leonard Cohen - Going Home I love to speak with Leonard He's a sportsman and a shepherd He's a lazy bastard Living in a suit But he does say what I tell him Even though it isn't welcome He will never have the freedom To refuse He will speak these words of wisdom Like a sage, a man of vision Though he knows he's really nothing But the brief elaboration of a tube Going home Without [...]
It's not the newest trend in the webiverse. See, for example, Hangin' Out On E Street , the Bruce Springsteen-solicited covers project we noted way back in February of 2009, or The Stand Ins project , which had Bon Iver, The New Pornographers, David Vandervelde, and other indie names taking on the tracks from Okkervil River album The Stand Ins as it was released in 2008. But the songwriter-specific video covers project concept seems to be peaking, with several major collections in process as we speak. Today, we present our [...]
Music Emissions Old Ideas Poetry Contest To celebrate "Old Ideas", the first new Leonard Cohen record in a decade, Music Emissions is sponsoring its first Poetry Contest. "Old Ideas" ( stream track four "Darkness" ) shows not only the continued power of Leonard Cohen's poetic vision, but also insists this man continues living as long as he keeps on writing. A Canadian legend whose poems and songs have inspired romantics and misanthropes for over forty years, Cohen wants to hear our own word-fest. You may not be 70-plus like the living legend Leonard [...]

![[Album Review/Stream] Leonard Cohen- Old Ideas](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049382_lg.jpg)
by nashawa It's really difficult to come into an album like Old Ideas without preconceived notions. We all know who Leonard Cohen is and the weight the name carries in this country. As a songwriter, it's very hard to not trace a trail of influence back to him regardless of the style of music you write. For me, there is no trail: Leo is the be-all-end-all of Canadian songwriting as far as overall package is concerned - in my not-so-humble opinion - so there wasn't much of a chance [...]
It's no secret that FOX has a habit of canceling its best shows (to this day I still want to have a serious talking to with whoever decided Arrested Development had run its course). And after a recent Lie to Me obsession this summer, I was devastated to find there was no Season 4 to continue my marathon. So consider this playlist Part 1 of a final lament to yet another show that ended before its time. Lie to Me is a drama centered around Dr. Cal Lightman (Tim Roth - [...]

Bueno, en las ultimas semanas habran podido darse cuenta que han estado circulando distintos videos pertenecientes a una serie de covers que han estado haciendo algunos proyectos actuales a algunos clasicos de Leonard Cohen como el caso [...]
On Further Review by Julie Stoller It dawns like an early morning sunrise, with chorus, piano and strings drawing a pastoral scene. Punctuated by organ chords and soft percussive flourishes, the introduction is somberly recited by a man who is both observer and observed. I was laughing and in tears at the first song. But that's about right, isn't it? This is Leonard [...]

With Adele's 21 in the peak position on Billboard 's Top 200 for a 19th non-consecutive week, the album is just seven days shy of tying the 20-week run at #1 by the soundtrack to 1992 film The Bodyguard — i.e. the most recent album to have a lengthier run atop the chart. 21 sold another 122,000 copies last week, and the Grammy Album Of The Year nominee will likely see a boost in sales after this Sunday's ceremony.
