Leonard Cohen is dead – Adresseavisen

the Case is updated.

It is with deep sorrow we announce that the legendary poet, songwriter and artist Leonard Cohen has passed away, write the label of his Cohens official Facebook page . Which states also that there will be held a memorial in Los Angeles later. It says nothing about how Cohen died.

There are only a few weeks ago Cohens last album called, “You Want It fax menu”, which was his 14. studioplate. In an interview with The New Yorker in connection with so to speak he discussed the unfinished songs he has lying, and said that he would hardly be able to complete them.

– Perhaps, who knows? And maybe I’ll get renewed strength, the sense I don’t. But I dare not bind me to a spiritual strategy, that I dare not do.

In the interview, he said that he despite the fact that he still had work to do away, so he was ready to die, but that he hoped it was not too uncomfortable. Shortly afterwards he said that the statement may have been an exaggeration.

– sometimes one gets a little overdramatisk on its own behalf from time to time. I intend to live forever, it was at the time.

To The New Yorker talked Cohen also of Norwegian Marianne Ihlen, and about the letter he sent her on her deathbed. He said to the magazine that he in his age regarded the loss as a routine. He was less concerned about angela’s death, and more of all the memories of their time together.
