Its funny, when most people praise Leonard Cohen they rarely seem to make mention of his dark side. I love his dark side! He can be so filthy and perverted or acidic and nasty when he wants to be. There are these fabulous backhanded compliments, where he elevates a person (or himself) and then just cuts them down in the next breath. He can be so deliciously cruel in the most poetic and articulate ways. On albums like Songs of Love & Hate or Death of a Ladies Man, or songs like Everybody Knows or The Future these traits really become apparent. Dudes a razor blade waiting in an ornate leather boot.
