December Advent Music Meme #10 is Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen

 
   HAD to include a song by Leonard Cohen and, quite frankly, it has to be Hallelujah. It rankles quite some that people will endlessly mention versions by other artists; one in particular (sorry AB, but i don't like him that much), but I've yet to hear one that even approaches the Master performing it. 

   So here 'tis. 

   This is from the Montreal Jazz Festival in 2008. 

   



   Goddess preserve us in these dark times,

December Advent Music Meme #9 is Dance Me to the End of Love by Madeleine Peyroux

 
   Of course this is here because of Leonard Cohen's passing, but this is my favourite version of this song; also the song that introduced me to the sublime magic that is Madeleine Peyroux. 

   


   Here is a version by the Master himself though, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGorjBVag0I 

   Goddess preserve us in these dark times,
