@CBCToronto I attended his 2012 concert. After having studied his words in high school, I lived them all over again. His voice was so deep. pic.twitter.com/E35fiO8o1E

As a falling leaf may rest
A moment on the air
So your head upon my breast
So my hand upon your hair #LeonardCohen #ripLeonard #heroes
