Riff: Leonard Cohen – “You Got Me Singing”

Sep 23, 2014

You got me singing/Even tho’ it all looks grim/You got me singing/The Hallelujah hymn

from You Got Me Singing lyrics by Leonard Cohen

Marching to the beat of his own drum, we get one last clear snapshot of what keeps this iconoclast’s stride going. That if a person is bold, honest and takes the time to listen to their heart they will never need to search for inspiration again. Because the truly good ones find it from within.
