I would listen to Adam Cohen sing names and addresses from the phone book. Lucky for us his father was one of the world's most gifted songwriters. So sad for the senior Cohen's passing and grateful for the gift of his son.

Something incredibly poetic about a son singing his fathers song. Putting his own take on it, but at the same time staying true to the essence, that isn't even something anyone owns.

I saw the description, and started watching the vid, and before he sang a word, I knew it was Leonar'd son. He looks sooo much like his dad did at the same age. Adam's take on this song is quite original; quite contemporary with the addition of a few different chords. And although the arrangement was great, I think this song is at its best the way his father sang it, with his acoustic guitar, and two background singers. The message speaks for itself. Still, all in all, a great video.

According to his father in another interview, he has a truer sense of key....Adam probably sings more accurately than Leonard. I am no judge I thought I could sing until I was told I could not. Adam is clearly a wonderful and creative talent...But it is all about what resonates.....Leonard could communicate pain and unrequited love in a way which we all know is truthful...That is the bit I like best. That is what speaks to the heart.

"The gracious, spare production adds to the spell-contributed by his son, Adam Cohen, who almost wholly replaces his father’s proclivities for tinny keyboards and stately, gospel-esque female harmonies in favor of violins, warm acoustic guitar, and a cantor male choir." Pitchfork online. Your father was the poet of brokenness you are the one of wholeness. There is beauty to be found in wholeness follow your own life experience . (Though you do give masterful renditions of your father's music)

I would not be so quick to prejudge, even if Adam could write the poetic songs truth is the day has gone and it would be difficult for any new song in the same style to have the impact. The old songs should be kept alive, Adam has a similar style, looks, voice and dry sense of humour. Yes he will always be in the shadow, but who better to carry the mantle?
