Here we are, at last and already: the final album by Leonard Cohen except that it's not. (What's the opposite of posthumous? Humous?) Here we are: the final humous album by Leonard Cohen, You Want It Darker.

They said you couldn't make 4 live albums out of one tour. Well, Leonard proved them (mostly) wrong with Can't Forget. We talk about all the tracks, not quite in the right order, and yes, we mention the cover.

So concludes our coverage of the penultimate Leonard Cohen era, what we've dubbed the "Reformed Buddhist Era." No Best Of countdown this time, just this—a look into a funny little CD from 2010, plus one insurmountable stunner of a missed opportunity.

In 2007, renowned composer of minimalist neoclassical music Philip Glass set 22 poems from Leonard Cohen's "Book of Longing" to his distinctive music. The result is one of the most beguiling records we've covered on the podcast so far. We hope you enjoy this wacky little one-off! And if you're totally unfamiliar with Glass's music, don't worry—in the episode, Ned gives Kinley (and you) a brief primer on the fascinating world of minimalist music.

Well into his seventies, after years of making music without a band and declining opportunities to perform live, Leonard embarked on a gruelling worldwide tour, playing close to 3 hour sets every night. His July 17, 2008, performance in London's O2 arena was released as a live triple-album and DVD.

In the thrilling conclusion to the first "Lenny and Coco at the Movies" series, we discuss Robert Altman's renowned 1971 anti-western McCabe and Mrs. Miller. Three songs from Leonard Cohen's first album are featured in the film—"The Stranger Song"; "Sisters of Mercy"; and "Winter Lady"—as well as some bits from the recording sessions that are unhearable anywhere else. But beyond that, McCabe and Mrs. Miller is a landmark piece of cinema, demolishing outdated ideas of the Old West and capturing the moment when Robert Altman's style truly crystallized.

Leonard plays the embodied spirit of an old hotel in this award-winning 1983 made-for-TV 25-minute short film (which you can watch here). It's really something. Combining dance, theatre, and some truly spectacular 1980s transitions, this is a fascinating and unique piece of Cohendom.

YouTube playlist here. In this episode we cover all the official music videos released by Leonard Cohen up to this point in our journey, which includes tracks from Various Positions, I'm Your Man, and The Future (and maybe even a sneaky Cohen Live). These may not all be "good," but they are definitely all Leonard, so we had a nice time regardless.
