Re: Happy Birthday, Leonard!
Happy Birthday Leonard! And ongoing wishes to you and yours for good health, happiness and prosperity.
I think you could probably take the day off – ‘cause there are miles and miles of smiles for you on people’s faces out here.
I’m looking forward to your new album. And I’m always hoping you will come back to Philadelphia - “if it be your will.”
Love and best wishes,
Linda

Happy Birthday Leonard, to the kind, gracious soul that you have always been and continue to be so. Hope to see you on tour again. From a fan since the 70's.

Leonard in todays Croatian media (77th birthday plus boxset announcements):

http://www.ravnododna.com/leonard-cohen ... am-knjigu/ (this music website also gives free copy of Footman's biography in Croatian to one person who answers on question "What's the name of Cohen's latest studio release?")

http://www.antenazagreb.hr/zabava/rodje ... hen/n2120/
and many other websites repeating these same news. Also, Cohen's songs on the radio, even more than usual, but now mostly with attached radio DJs' commentary about his birthday and forthcoming releases...

Re: Happy Birthday, Leonard!
Dear Leonard
i am just a little Frankfurt girl
wanting to thank you with ... if i only knew?
there is no way for me to return ... even a fraction
for all that i have received from you.
i am always grateful and i know
your words and songs are sweeter than any piece of art.
to you today i passionately bow
wishing you health and a warm happy birthday
...with all my little heart.
i’d like to share some words by Rene Daumal (from mai 1943). i had stumbled upon them in a library book when i was 18,
and those words have accompanied me ever since, as yours:
Je suis mort parce que je n’ai pas le désir,
Je n’ai pas le désir parce que je crois posséder,
Je crois posséder parce que je n’essaie pas de donner.
Essayant de donner, on voit qu’on n’a rien,
Voyant qu’on n’a rien, on essaie de se donner,
Essayant de se donner, on voit qu’on n’est rien,
Voyant qu’on est rien, on désire devenir,
Désirant devenir, on vit.
Thank you for your desires, becoming and being yourself, you have given so much.
If i could i would send the birthday plum cakes i baked over to you, and the cream...
with love and gratitude

Re: Happy Birthday, Leonard!
For the first time in 3 years, L Cohen will not be in front of me tonight, he will certainly be between my ears though as I plan on listening to a few of his records, while waiting for the next one
a wonderful birthday to LC
