Leonard Norman Cohen CC GOQ (September 21, 1934 – November 7, 2016) was a Canadian singer, songwriter, poet, and novelist. His work explored religion, politics, isolation, depression, sexuality, loss, death and romantic relationships.Cohen was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was invested as a Companion of the Order of Canada, the nation's highest civilian honour. In 2011, Cohen received one of the Prince of Asturias Awards for literature and the ninth Glenn Gould Prize.

Cohen pursued a career as a poet and novelist during the 1950s and early 1960s; he did not launch a music career until 1967, at the age of 33. His first album, Songs of Leonard Cohen (1967), was followed by three more albums of folk music: Songs from a Room (1969), Songs of Love and Hate (1971) and New Skin for the Old Ceremony (1974). His 1977 record Death of a Ladies' Man, co-written and produced by Phil Spector, was a move away from Cohen's previous minimalist sound. In 1979, Cohen returned with the more traditional Recent Songs, which blended his acoustic style with jazz, Oriental, and Mediterranean influences. Perhaps Cohen's most famous song, "Hallelujah", was first released on his studio album Various Positions in 1984. I'm Your Man in 1988 marked Cohen's turn to synthesized productions and remains his most popular album. In 1992, Cohen released its follow-up, The Future, which had dark lyrics and references to political and social unrest.

Cohen returned to music in 2001 with the release of Ten New Songs, which was a major hit in Canada and Europe. His 11th album, Dear Heather, followed in 2004. Following a successful string of tours between 2008 and 2013, Cohen released three albums in the last five years of his life: Old Ideas (2012), Popular Problems (2014) and You Want It Darker (2016), the last of which was released three weeks before his death. A posthumous album titled Thanks for the Dance was released in November 2019, his fifteenth studio album.

USLT                                     : Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river. / You can hear the boats go by, / You can spend the night beside her. / And you know she's half crazy, / But that's why you want to be there. / And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China. / And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her, / Then she gets you on her wavelength / And she lets the river answer / That you've always been her lover. /  / And you want to travel with her, / And you want to travel blind, / And you know she will trust you, / For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. /  / And Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water / And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower. / And when he knew for certain, only drowning men could see him, / He said: "All men will be sailors then, until the sea shall free them." / But he himself was broken / Long before the sky would open, / Foresaken, almost human, / He sank beneath your wisdom, like a stone /  / And you want to travel with him / And you want to travel blind / And you think maybe you'll trust him / For he's touched your perfect body with his mind. /  / Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river. / She's wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters. / And the sun pours down like honey on our Lady of the Harbor. / And she shows you where to look, among the garbage and the flowers. / There are heroes in the seaweed, / There are children in the morning, / They are leaning out for love, / They will lean that way forever, / While Suzanne holds the mirror. /  / And you want to travel with her, / And you want to travel blind, / And you know you can trust her / For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
