Leonard Cohen, 2008. Wikimedia Commons<\/a>, Licensed under CCO 2.0.<\/p><\/div>\n

This week,<\/em> the<\/em> Review is publishing a series of short reflections on love songs, broadly defined.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The other night I streamed Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, a Journey, a Song<\/em>, a documentary by Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine. In most of the footage, we see a Leonard who\u2019s reflective and doubting. As I watched his Jewish man\u2019s face age and his dark hair turn gray, I wondered what I could learn from him about drawing no conclusions. That might be the motto of his life and music\u2014draw no conclusions. It\u2019s a sexy, freewheeling stance. I\u2019d like it to be the motto of my life, except I draw conclusions all the time. They happen to be wrong, which saves me.<\/p>\n

I always wondered what women wanted from Leonard. I think they wanted what they thought the songs were about. In the songs, a man is thinking about how to get the woman, and he thinks he can get her by figuring out what she wants. Leonard is imagining what it would be like to be a woman with a man coming on to her.<\/p>\n

This is great. This is basically the opposite of every other song written by a man about a woman. For example, in his entire life, Bob Dylan has never imagined the effect of his lyrics on a woman, or else, you know, the words would not be so sneering, and he would give us a picture of the woman and not just her effect on him. Bob doesn\u2019t address women. He writes to men about women. He can do what he likes. But not once in my life did I think Bob would be a good fuck. Every woman on the planet has thought Leonard would be a good fuck.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a clip in the documentary of Leonard singing \u201cI\u2019m Your Man,\u201d the title song of an album he released in 1988. The gravel in his voice has settled. In interviews, he said he felt he could sing at that point with the \u201cauthority and intensity\u201d the song needed. He\u2019s trying to win back the woman. He\u2019s screwed up in some way. Gee, I wonder how? He\u2019s grown aloof? He\u2019s slept around? He stands there, holding the mic like it\u2019s her hand, and he lays himself out. He doesn\u2019t care if he looks vulnerable. Actually, he doesn\u2019t. He\u2019s in control of the show. The song is the blindfold. The song is going to lead you to the party.<\/p>\n

The music has a jaunty, Kurt Weill bounce that builds without laying on too much of the old-world schmaltz Leonard likes to play with in other songs. He\u2019s alone, with no chorus or backup singers. Just Leonard promising anything to turn her on. The file box of possibilities, itself, is the turn-on. He\u2019ll wear a mask for you. He\u2019ll let you strike him down in anger. He\u2019ll go into the ring for you. He\u2019ll explore every inch of you. He\u2019ll have a baby with you. He\u2019ll drive you like a car. He\u2019ll let you drive him like a car. He\u2019ll move off if you want to be alone.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get back to the \u201cI\u2019ll explore every inch of you.\u201d He\u2019s been with enough women to know this is the hook. He will make you feel he could drown in you. He\u2019s drowning in something, and in sex it\u2019s easy to think it\u2019s you. Until the feeling wears off.<\/p>\n

In 2008, when Leonard is seventy-three, he hits the road again to perform. He needs to reinvent his life and he\u2019s broke. A woman who isn\u2019t named in the documentary has stolen all his money while he\u2019s spent five years in a Buddhist monastery. When he plans the tour, he\u2019s afraid of the reception he\u2019ll get, although it turns out tons of people love him. He doesn\u2019t know how this has happened. He doesn\u2019t believe he has anything to say except this is the way an artist makes a life, by staying in the game. And he hopes to give pleasure.<\/p>\n

Onstage, he tells the audience he\u2019s grateful to perform for them. He feels honored. You think it\u2019s authentic. He\u2019s so sweet and also severe in his restraint. In his whole life, Bob Dylan has taken very few breaks from performing. Onstage, Bob doesn\u2019t look at the audience or tell them more than he needs to. You want to look at me, he\u2019s saying; well, here I am. This is what you get. With Leonard, it\u2019s all: Take me. What is it you want that I can give you?<\/p>\n
