I've finished the chapter in my forthcoming book, Broken Hallelujah, that deals with Leonard Cohen. Out the process of deep engagement with his work, I realize, I just can't find the bottom of my appreciate for his song "If it be your will" that concludes his 1984 album Various Positions. And on Cohen's present tour, he calls it a 'kind of a prayer' and then recites a bit of the lyric before giving it over to the Webb Sisters to unfold. It is simply stunning. Take 5 and listen in.
