Why couldn't they have used a newer song, like The Heart Worships? Benedictus is very beautiful, though, but a new compilation should have more up-to-date songs, I would think.

Thanks for the information, Paddy!

I was going to say Universal are up to their old tricks again, but according to HMV this compilation is from Sony.

Nice to see that the main title is Leonard Cohen's song.
Finally being recognised by the masses and the purists for his genius with words and music.
An overnight success at 73 years of age..

Oh come on Paul..I first discovered Cohen in 1969, and had a phase of playing nothing else but his "Songs of Love and Hate". I still have a soft spot for him, as you evidently to as well. A brilliant ansd thought provoking lyricist.

So there's hope for the rest of yet, then?
