Not quite 'Sophie's Choice', of course, but I find this incredibly difficult. I am trying to learn 'Chelsea Hotel' and 'A Singer Must Die' on the guitar at the moment, so they are most prominent in my mind,and therefore, I suppose my current favourites.
I admire witty_owl for being able to play 'The Stranger Song'. It looks impossible to me. One day, I tell you, I will be able to play it. Oh yes I will...

As I can see I'm not the only one who has trouble with picking just one favourite song...
I like allmost all of them.
From his earlier music i like Partisans, Stranger song and Joan of Arc
From his newer work I like Love Itself the best because this song is just so peaceful,philosophical. Leonard has come to terms with himself and the world.He understands God and himself.
Somehow I have always liked Dance Me To The End Of Love...A very romantical song im my opinion

Well, my favourite song… It is A Thousand Kisses Deep.
Also I like Here It Is. Few simple words - and here is whole life behind you… It’s amazing.
Humour of One of Us Cannot Be Wrong is amazing too. Cool song. Listening to it I can’t stop smiling (and even laughing sometimes).
Light as the Breeze… It’s a charming one as well…
Actually I like many songs, of course.
Yeah, but it looks like it is fire only who loves us in this way …( )I love the line about the solitude and pride of Joan. If a boy or a man really loved me he would exactly say this sentence.

I've finally found myself! But that turned out to be a completely different person.

At this moment, it is "The Window" from Field Commander Cohen. so beauriffuuly recorded, every moment a gem. Gorgeous lyrics, such tenderness for anyone in emotional suffering. Anthem, If it Be Thy Will, Take this Longing, Bird on a Wire...
Did someone actualy make mention that Felix Cavaliere wrote songs "the opposite of Leonard's -- about hope and longing".. Who writes better about longing than Leonard? And hope, what is Anthem is not hope incarnate?

"...and for something like a second, I was cured, and my heart was at ease."
