I always disregard these 'top 10 songs' lists in the Guardian but this one is decent. I would have put Marianne on top but Blue Raincoat is OK there. By the way, if you haven't heard Jennifer Warne's' album by that name, please try to do so. It's excellent. On a final note, the fact that Cohen was screwed over by a jilted accountant seems ironic to me. But I've never been able to figure out what is actually ironic. Perhaps that itself is ironic. #music theguardian.com/music/2026/oct…

Reading this article about Leonard Cohen’s best songs and reminded that a friend of mine had “dance me to the end of love” on his wedding playlist. It’s about the holocaust. And, it has to be said, even if you didn’t know that, it’s a bit of a buzzkill at a party. Nowt as queer as folk. theguardian.com/music/2026/oct… #music
