Leonard Cohen ~ A Bunch Of Lonesome Heroes


A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes Were smoking out along the open road; The night was very dark and thick between them, Each man beneath his ordinary load. 'I'd like to tell my story,' Said one of them so young and bold, 'I'd like to tell my story, Before I turn into gold.' But no one really could hear him, The night so dark and thick and green; Well I guess that these heroes must always live there Where you and I have only been. Put out your cigarette, my love, You've been alone too long; And some of us are very hungry now To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong. I sing this for the crickets, I sing this for the army, I sing this for your children And for all who do not need me. 'I'd like to tell my story,' Said one of them so bold, 'Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story 'Cause you know I feel I'm turning into gold. more free lyrics

A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes
Were smoking out along the open road;
The night was very dark and thick between them,
Each man beneath his ordinary load.
'I'd like to tell my story,'
Said one of them so young and bold,
'I'd like to tell my story,
Before I turn into gold.'
But no one really could hear him,
The night so dark and thick and green;
Well I guess that these heroes must always live there
Where you and I have only been.
Put out your cigarette, my love,
You've been alone too long;
And some of us are very hungry now
To hear what it is you've done that was so wrong.

I sing this for the crickets,
I sing this for the army,
I sing this for your children
And for all who do not need me.
'I'd like to tell my story,'
Said one of them so bold,
'Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story
'Cause you know I feel I'm turning into gold.

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
