Leonard Cohen, “You Want It Darker” Columbia Records Leonard Cohen’s late, late career resurgence reaches new heights on “You Want It Darker,” an elegant treatise with deep felt layers of wisdom and a sense of finality. Produced mostly by son Adam, Cohen’s third studio album in five years puts his most effective musical forms through a filter of restraint. Nothing distracts from the 82-year-old’s haunting lyrics, and his vocals remain both otherworldly and CD cover image released by Columbia Records shows "You Want It Darker," by Leonard Cohen. Columbia via AP A physical, naked bass line drives the title song, as Cohen’s woofer-rattling vocals are underpinned by a cantor and the Shaar Hashomayim Synagogue Choir, connections to his Montreal youth. Full of recriminations and frustrations while also ready to accept fate, it may be God who wants it darker, but it’s us who “kill the flame.” On “Treaty,” later reprised with a string quartet, Cohen may be putting to rest the relationship described on “Hallelujah,” with no room for illusions — “I’m so sorry for the ghost I made you be/ Only one of us was real, and that was me.” The Mediterranean stylings of “Traveling Light” are like the soundtrack to Cohen’s courtship of the legendary and recently deceased Marianne Ihlen on a Greek island in the 1960s. “Leaving the Table” is a country song glowing from the jukebox and Johnny Cash could have recorded “If I Didn’t Have Your Love” with Rick Rubin. If it’s too early to say goodbye, we can consider “You Want It Darker” as simply his new album, not the end of a trilogy. No matter which station of life he’s at, Cohen shines on, darkly.

Niet te geloven, Leonard Cohen is gisteren 82 jaar geworden en brengt nog steeds nieuwe muziek uit. Op 21 oktober komt het 14e album “You Want It Darker” uit. Leonard`s zoon Adam Cohen produceerde de plaat, dat de opvolger wordt “Popular Problems” 2014. Eerste single wordt de titeltrack YOU WANT IT DARKER. We kennen Leonard vooral van klassiekers als SUZANNE, HALLELUJAH en SO LONG MARIANNE. Maar tegen Cohen zeggen we hopelijk nog lang geen so long…..Aan de nieuwe single werken het Montreal’s Cantor Gideon Zelermyer en het Shaar Hashomayim Synagogue koor mee. Beluister het nummer hier.
