Mark Steyn on Leonard Cohen

November 14, 2016 By Kathy Shaidle

He received the highest honors of the Canadian state and the Québécois make-believe state – Companion of the Order of Canada, Grand Officer of the National Order of Quebec – but the formal baubles do not measure the mark of anything as elusive as a lasting musical contribution: In this department, we celebrate songs, and this one entered the world in 1984, when Leonard Cohen went into a New York studio and recorded the very first version of “Dance Me To The End Of Love”. Three decades on, it has the makings of a contemporary standard.
