Leonard Cohen: "You Want It Darker"

#1 Indlæg af La Mouche » 16 sep 2016 17:28

vi skal lige have lidt pre-release hype

Og ja, jeg HAR fattet at der er nogle mennesker der ikke kan lide det bevidst halv-kitschede musik han har kørt med i 2. halvdel af karrieren, de behøver ikke kommer ind i tråden og trolle.

nogle rygter/teaser-anmeldelser:

John Mulvey, editor of Uncut, wrote in their blog under the title "The 30th Uncut Playlist Of 2016": "Also the Leonard Cohen album is, I’m pretty convinced, his best this millennium; can’t wait to share some of that when tracks become available…"

Uncut hits the UK newsstands on Tuesday. About the new issue, John Mulvey also tweeted: "Our new, improved reviews section, lead by a magisterial piece by @jandersonesque on what I think might be one of Leonard Cohen's best LPs."

Meanwhile, Sylvie Simmons, reviewer for MOJO, commented on Twitter: "By the way, after four plays I've changed my one-word review on the new #LeonardCohen album from great to magnificent."

Teksten til You Want It Darker:

You Want It Darker
If you are the dealer
I’m out of the game
If you are the healer
I’m broken and lame
If thine is the glory
Then mine must be the shame
You want it darker
We kill the flame

Magnified and sanctified
Be Thy Holy Name
Vilified and crucified
In the human frame
A million candles burning
For the help that never came
You want it darker
We kill the flame

Hineni Hineni
I’m ready, my Lord

There’s a lover in the story
But the story is still the same
There’s a lullaby for suffering
And a paradox to blame
But it’s written in the scriptures
And it’s not some idle claim
You want it darker
We kill the flame

They’re lining up the prisoners
The guards are taking aim
I struggled with some demons
They were middle-class and tame
Didn’t know I had permission
To murder and to maim
You want it darker
We kill the flame

Hineni Hineni
I’m ready, my Lord

Magnified and sanctified
Be Thy Holy Name
Vilified and crucified
In the human frame
A million candles burning
For the love that never came
You want it darker
We kill the flame

If you are the dealer
I’m out of the game
If you are the healer
I’m broken and lame
If thine is the glory
Then mine must be the shame
You want it darker
We kill the flame

Hineni Hineni
I’m ready, my Lord

LOL, Lenny, helt sikkert. Glæder mig til at høre den.

Et enkelt vers kan høres her, fra "Peaky Blinders"... med bare babser og det hele....

Hvad siger vi til det? Det lyder meget som Dear Heather, Old Ideas og Popular Problems - ikke så meget en sang men mere en mørk messe.

Musik er en herlig ting, den tæmmer dyret i mennesket Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin

Nick Cave udsat for rytmeboks, keyboard og det lokale sogns kirkekor?
