Leonard Cohen / You Want It Darker (2016); "You Want It Darker" ist das bewegende Abschiedsalbum von Leonard Cohen, das nur wenige Wochen vor seinem Tod erschien. Mit seiner tiefen, brüchigen Stimme reflektiert Cohen über das Altern, den Tod und die Spiritualität – eindringlich und poetisch wie eh und je.
