Sandy Denny , The Sea
Beautiful, Sludgey. I saw her at the old Cory Hall (opp Queen St station) in the early 70's. Her backing band featured Richard Thompson and many other Fairports.

I will live with his songs until my death!!
Billie Holiday
This would be a classic Cohen song for a funeral:
You want it darker its exceptional and sooo dark

And this makes me cry Hurt by Johnny Cash

And last but not least
Lazarus by Bowie

Went to see Ian Hunter & the Rant Band, he wrote a song dedicated to David Bowie called Dandy, but even better is his tribute to the 'spider with the platinum hair', the live version is very emotional and heartfelt. There's been some great tribute songs, George Harrison's All Those Years Ago for John Lennon for instance, but this one really does it for me.
Michael Picasso
Ian Hunter
Once upon a time
Not so long ago
People used to stand and stare
At the spider with the platinum hair
They thought you were immortal
We had our ups and downs
Like brothers often do
But I was there for him
He was always there for me
And we were there for you
How can I put into words
What my heart feels?
It's the deepest thing
When somebody you love dies
I just wanted
To give something back to you
Gift to gift
Michael, Michael Picasso good night
You used to love our house
You said it was relaxing
Now I walk in the places you walk
I talk in all the spaces you talk
It still hasn't sunk in
Are the words real
That come into my head
On a morning walk?
Do the shadows
Play tricks with my mind?
For it feels like
Nothing has changed
But I know it has
Michael, Michael Picasso
Good night
Heal me
Won't you
Heal me?
Nothing lasts forever
Set me free
Heal me
Won't you
Heal me?
I'm the one who's left here
Heal me
Heal me
Heal me
You turned into a ghost
Surrounded by your pain
And the thing that I liked the least
Was sitting 'round Hasker Street
Lying about the future
And we all sit
In a room full of tears
On a windy day
And I looked out
But none of these words seem right
I just wanted
To give something back to you
Gift to gift
Michael, Michael Picasso
Good night
Saw Cohen four times over the years. Fantastic words, songs, singing and stage presence. Thank you, 'Doc,' Watson for introducing him to me in college.
