Dallas 4/3/2009 change of lyrics?

I saw a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6-XwAxfoaQ) on youtube of Anthem played in Dallas. Did I hear it correct was there a change in the lyrics? For me the it was always: "The signs were sent, the birth betrayed......" Now for me it sounds like: "The signs were sent, the birt...

Re: Sounds of Silence

DrHguy,

Thanks for the information, I did search the forum, but couldn't find the thread.
I think that the reading by Leonard is almost as good as his reading of "A thousend kisses deep".

Sounds of Silence

I've found an mp3 file where Leonard is recitating this song. Listening to his voice it looks like it was only recently that he did this song. Does anyone know where and when this took place. It was a live recording and are there more songs from this gig?

Re: Rotterdam, November 3

Well I'am speechless. This was an amazing evening. For me the first three songs weren't that great, it was a bit dull. Except for the acrobetics of the webb sisters. But from "bird on a wire" on it was outstanding. Leonard sang Bird on a wire with such a feeling and compassion that it near...

Re: Rotterdam Ahoy, November 3rd

Oh this is great news. In the late seventies I wasn't allowed to drive a car yet and I went on a bicycle to a leonard cohen concert. And now once again I can go to a Leonard Cohen concert on my bicycle, living in Rotterdam not far from Ahoy. I've been to the concert in Amsterdam and in my mind I am ...

Re: Indoor concert in The Netherlands?

Let's hope so. Ten we have a change to see Leonard a second time in a short period and an indoor concert have a different atmosphere then an outdoor one.
especially since the concert in Amsterdam looks like becoming a rainy one.

Re: Amsterdam, Westerpark, July 12

Being a fan since the release of the songs of love and hate album and seeing him in 1979, 1988 and 1993 I am pretty exited to see him in just a couple of hours. I have always kept hoping to see him one more time live and it's going to happen. We are from Rotterdam so we will join you all at the paci...
