Giles ,'Selfless'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I just got back from the Leonard Cohen show in San Jose, which turns out to have been the last show of this tour.
IT WAS THE MOST FUCKING AWESOME SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TO.
ahem. I am very tired, so I am going to bed now, but expect more gushing in the morning.

I couldn't help but laughing.
Particularly at 1:10
More theremin!
