That's great, Hartmut, thank you! I love it.

Is that your musical composition behind it? If so, very nice!!

Thank you, friends, for all your very kind comments - greatly appreciated!

Your sweetness made me smile...

In the song, Happens to the Heart, Leonard wrote this line: "It failed my little fire". It makes me sad that Leonard would think such a thing, so I wrote this response to that line: My Messiah I shall call you my messiah It did not fail, your holy fire Your flame, it resurrected me and saved me from...

Dear Jarkko & Eija, Thank you for the very striking, gorgeous photo! I am so sorry to hear that Eija is ill. I remember when I met both of you for the first time, in Las Vegas in 2010, & I was struck by Eija's beautiful, warm, penetrating eyes, & the lovely intensity of that photo reminds me of her ...

I thought I did delete the entire review, so I am at a loss as how this apparently did not happen. Is it still there? I see three dots. When I made my previous post, it was still there, but I see that now it has been deleted. Thank you very much, Hal E. Lujah, it was very considerate of you to foll...

Now, that's much better, isn't it...

Very cute, Hal E.Lujah! ... ... ...

Editing: Since nothing was deleted, & your reply didn't make much sense, I assumed it was a joke, & I replied in kind...maybe I was wrong, maybe not....whatever...cheers!

Wish I hadn't posted it. Why don't you delete it, then? IMO, it's not worthy of the space it's occupying here, & though I can only speak for myself, I would venture to say that most people here are likely to agree. I read a couple of lines, & decided it wasn't worth my time or energy. You can just ...

I want to add my words of gratitude to Leonard, Adam & everyone involved in the making of this amazing, beautiful album!! I can totally believe that Leonard was there with all of you during the process, as his presence is so tangible in all those gorgeous musical arrangements, & with this album, you...

A very touching video; thank you for the link, Wybe.

The lines about the "begger" seems to be about Roshi Then I studied with this beggar He was filthy, he was scarred By the claws of many women He had failed to disregard No fable here no lesson No singing meadowlark Just a filthy beggar guessing What happens to the heart Peter Hi Peter, I think it s...

Wow, Happens to the Heart, so haunting, so beautiful, I totally love it!! And I love the alternate lyrics that Leonard sings, which are different, & IMO even better, than the previously posted poem; esp.: "I had no trouble betting/ on the flood against the ark/ you see, I knew about the ending/ what...

Hartmut, that is beautiful!! What a lovely melody - so stately & meditative - it had me swaying with the beauty of the majestic sounds, soothing rhythm, & your perfect incorporation of Leonard's voice! Thank you for sharing that.

Alan, thank you so much for taking the time to post your very generous & thoughtful comments - it means alot to me & I am very touched by your sensitivity & kindness. Hartmut, thank you too, no need to apologize, & thank you for starting the thread & giving us an opportunity to express our love & gr...

Bev & Lisa, I had to summon some courage to post that poem, so I want you to know that your very sweet words are appreciated - thank you!

Hartmut & Bev, both of your posts are so lovely & beautiful, that I feel compelled to add an offering. So, shabby though it may be, here is something I wrote in honor of our Leonard's 85th birthday: Darling, Where Are You? And when they ask, saying "Darling, where are you?" What shall I tell them My...
