Leonard Cohen's Lust for Beauty

Submitted by Meg Wilson on April 5, 2009 - 18:00.

Leonard Cohen (who knows he has a reputation as a ladies man) talks about his lust for beauty (not to embody it but to be associated with it) on NPR's Fresh Air podcast.

It seems that not even five years (part time, surely?) at a Zen monastery was able to chip away at his obsessive tango with female beauty. Listen to it here.

See some of his music videos here.

PS, We are both ultra fans of Cohen. This NPR interview is fantastic - it really draws out his ubercool glow, (but still we are sad to pinpoint his fatal flaw, only our IMHO.)
