Composer of 'Hallelujah' and many, many other songs and poems. Dead at age 82. Personally, I think 'Hallelujah' is one of the best songs ever and I want it played at my funeral (in about 50 years, I hope!). Just always gets me.

Hallelujah is a terrible song.

(to the tune of Hallelujah)
L.Cohen wrote a garbage song
That ev'ryone likes to sing along
But you don't know much music theory, do ya?
It goes like this, "the 4th, the fifth."
But the rest is just some made up s**t.
As you start Googling 'Minor fall," Ah, screw ya.

Chattanooga
Barracuda
Worship Buddha
Stop singing ha-lay-loo-yah

Now here comes some bible themes
That make the Christians wanna sing
And make L. Cohen bags and bags of moolah
He wrote in in the key of C
So any 'tard could play, you see.
It's almost like a musical Medusa.

Move to Cuba.
Play the Tuba
Do the Hula,
Stop singing ha-lay-loo-yah

Super spooky coincidence. Was at a dinner party last night, and someone played "Dance me to the End of Love", and I sat there thinking on how good of a composer Cohen was. Came home and found out he had passed.
