The Leonard Cohen song is simply a work of genius..........not up for debate, I just wanted to state!
The meaning of the lyrics has been translated many times and I can only refer you to the interweb if you are interested but regardless, I always end up reflecting on my life, my past and my future.
What inspires you to take an introverted look at yourself? |

Begins everythings Yabbadabbadoo
Ends,even the best bits,are now a bit shit.

You know, one of those backstage meetings occurred between Bob Dylan & Cohen, who praised Dylan's Blowin' In the Wind, which Dylan confessed to have written - lyrics and music - in a single, short sitting.
Cohen sweated blood over Hallelujah, writing and rewriting, substituting verses over a number of years...
And then it's one of the most covered songs of all time.
