2016 can really fuck off. I know he wrote his latest album knowing that he wasn’t long for this world, but still sad to hear.

Shit man, I was just thinking about who wrote that song yesterday when Rufus’ version came up in my playlist.

Fuck.

Rufus Wainwright is my favorite singer of this song.

So saddened by this news.

He said to Brian D. Johnson at Maclean’s Magazine just two months ago:

“a little too weak to get out there and boogie, and a little too healthy to die. Work is not always sweet, but it’s always sustaining.”

Favorite Leonard Cohen song:
