The magic moment in Bucharest has gone... Mr. Cohen took us to heaven and back. From 8 pm till midnight we flew on the rhythm of old and new ideas. Going to sleep now, dreaming to the future concerts in Europe...and saving the last dance for him.

Sincerely,
D. Cerasela

PS THANK YOU SIR

Back from Constitution Square, I am filled with that Cohen force that we all know so well... The concert was great and Leonard was great, as always! He enjoyed himself and led us on that special road he knows so well and shares with audiences every time he meets us...
Too bad the encore was too short... maybe because we were so close to the Parliament House ??? And no Famous Blue Raincoat either... But he treated us all to a flake... of his LIFE... AND for the 15,000 people present IT FELT SOOOOO GOOOOD !!!!!

I so wonder how it must have felt to sing with THAT in front of their eyes... Definitely the right place where to play Democracy.

Sorry about the video quality sometimes (especially at the beginning). I'm not Albert, and unfortunately the romanian public seems to enjoy walking around way too much.

The Partisan - I'm loving Leonard's growly voice here - especially the French sections
(I know - I read he was suffering from a cold - and don't know if that accounts for it - but I like the growl at the best of times :) - and the addition of Sharon Robinson's vocals to this song is - so good !)

Laura, I enjoyed all your videos, especially knowing you were so pleasantly surprised that LC was giving a concert in Bucharest this tour.
You rock!

btw. The walking around by patrons seems to be common in many of LC's outdoor concerts this tour.

Thank you, Arlene. It's "good" to know not only romanians are idiots.
And thank you for the compliment.

The last ones I have.

Hallelujah (to prove it was indeed Bucharest!)
