	TEN NEW SONGS - EUROMAN (DK) September 2001
		Ten New Songs, the title of the recording he will release next month, is possibly his most poised, hypnotic work yet, a set of secular and holy incantations whose pared-down lyrics refract contradictory waves of meaning and myth.
		If these seem like rabbinical labours, his new songs like complex prayers to someone who may or may not be a deity, it is because Cohen's life has been taken over by the most complicated and indescribable kind of spirituality.
		As we discuss this song, Cohen is surveying the objects on the big oak desk in the front room of his house.

	Leonard Cohen: Ten New Songs (2001): Reviews
		Ten New Songs manages to sustain loss's fragile beauty like never before and might just be the Cohen's most exquisite ode yet to the midnight hour.
		While Ten New Songs is not an attempt to break new ground, its sophistication and unassuming depth are almost worth the decade-long wait.
		Ten New Songs is all introspection, closer in sound to a technologically updated Songs From a Room.

	Leonard Cohen - Ten New Songs - Columbia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		There are ten songs, all with sparse instrumentation, depending largely on mood setting drum beats, piano taps,etc and Leonard's deeply whispered meanderings through the darkness of life which gives no salvation, only realization that life is a struggle.
		This song frightened me the most and filled me with the dread of a million prison cells, without light...but praying for it anyway.
		Ten New Songs is a masterpiece that demands to be heard.

	Ten New Songs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ten New Songs is Leonard Cohen's tenth studio album, released in 2001.
		It was co-written and produced by Sharon Robinson.
		Ten New Songs was the first Cohen album to be recorded and produced digitally, although not in a professional studio, but in Cohen's and Robinson's own home studios in Los Angeles.

	Sharon Robinson
		On this pretty collection of new tunes, Cohen is lyrically sharp… their natural grace and elegance wrap themselves around the listener… the only way to find out how good songs like "That Don't Make It Junk," "By the Rivers Dark" and "Love Itself" are is to put your money on the counter.
		Ten New Songs may not be his swan song, but, like Bob Dylan's Time Out of Mind, it would do the job nicely, as a coda for a brilliant career.
		But he came down from the mountains this year with ``Ten New Songs,'' and his ravaged rasp of voice sang them as though they were timeless prayers.

	Leonard Cohen: Ten New Songs
		Like an impressionistic mosaic, each song contributes a part to the vision; to select one song as the thematic heart of the matter is to produce an effect not unlike removing a line from a simple line sketch and trying to decode its message.
		Moreover, it is Robinson's minimalist instrumentation that serves as a sonic landscape so stark that the introduction of a strummed guitar on one song, and the delicate hint of swirling strings on another, produces an almost jarring shock to the listener.
		Melodically, the song is his standard fare: the focus is on the lyric while the tune serves as a mere framework to differentiate the song from a poem.

	Amazon.co.uk: Ten New Songs: Music: Leonard Cohen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		For the nine years prior to the release of Ten New Songs the legendary songwriter Leonard Cohen was mostly in a Zen monastery, obsessively rewriting and polishing the oblique, lapidary lyrics for this austere collection.
		Ten New Songs is arguably Sharon Robinson's record as much as Cohen's--she co-wrote all the songs, plays most of the instruments (primarily a synth that seems to have freshly emerged from a chintzy 1984 power ballad) and accompanies Cohen's gloomy croak with her own crooning.
		The songs acknowledge the mixture of weakness and strength of character which no doubt exists in us all and yet I find the overall tone of the album deeply satisfying and uplifting.

	Ten New Songs \| The Onion - America's Finest News Source
		There, he was given the Dharma name Jikan, meaning "the silent one," a name he seems to have taken too much to heart on Ten New Songs, his first studio album since 1992's The Future.
		On Ten New Songs, however, he seems to have lost the battle.
		Anyone with such a formidable catalog of songs can rest on his laurels as long as he likes, but if Cohen wants to turn out something new, especially after such a long absence, he should let himself be heard.

	village voice > music > New Order's Get Ready; Leonard Cohen's Ten New Songs by Michaelangelo Matos
		Cohen has sounded like an old man from the jump—partly because he was, at least in the pop terms of youth-saturated 1968, when he recorded his debut at 34—and partly because of his famously dry, low-key voice, which would turn into a biting rasp by the mid '80s.
		And like Cohen's Ten New Songs, their new Get Ready is neither as bad as you might fear nor as good as you might hope.
		The closest the new album comes, frustratingly, is at its end: "I wanna live till I die/I wanna live to get high." A useful sentiment these days—it's hard not to wonder if doing that might not have been a more productive use of their time.

		Ten New Songs is arguably Sharon Robinson's record as much as Cohen's--she cowrote all the songs, plays most of the instruments (primarily a synth that seems to have freshly emerged from a chintzy 1984 power ballad), and accompanies Cohen's gloomy croak with her own crooning.
		Most of these songs are "slow" and it turns out to be great back-round, rainy day, and late night music.
		These are poetic and thoughtful songs to contemplate the mysteries of life by, or maybe just to sit and watch the grass grow by, which may be the same thing...it will definitely take its place up there with "I'm Your Man" as a favorite CD.

		Now it’s been nine years since Cohen’s last release, and the result, “Ten New Songs (Columbia Records, October 2001),” is a departure from his past achievements, to say the least.
		As you listen to the album your first thought could be, “Floor ten, please.” Your second thought might be, “No, seriously, floor six is fine, just open the doors.” His strengths as a younger composer were engaging melodies and thought provoking lyrics.
		But on “Ten New Songs,” the chord progressions are both uninventive and nearly the same on every track.

		At the "Silver Scroll Awards" held in New Zealand in October 2001 the top ten Kiwi songs of the last seventy-five years were named.
		More recent songs such as Bic Runga's "Sway" made a showing but strangely it was the omissions to the list that caused most comment.

	Songs of Love and Hate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Songs of Love and Hate was the Canadian poet Leonard Cohen's third album.
		The songs contain emotive language and are frankly personal; "Famous Blue Raincoat" ends with the line "Sincerely, L. Cohen".
		Simply Vinyl issued a short-lived remastered edition on vinyl in 2002, making it the last Cohen album (aside from Ten New Songs, which was pressed in limited quantities) to go out of print on vinyl.

		The nine-year gap separating THE FUTURE and TEN NEW SONGS was by far the longest in Leonard Cohen's recording career.
		Sonically, the album continues Cohen's fascination with synthesizers, as first heard on 1988's I'M YOUR MAN. For his first album of the 21st century, he's embraced the digital world fully; nearly every sound is generated by the electronic artillery of Cohen's producer/L.A. cohort Sharon Robinson.
		That mantle is duly honored and upheld throughout TEN NEW SONGS.

	CanEHdian.com: Leonard Cohen
		The album is joint effort between Cohen and past collaborator and back-up vocalist Sharon Robinson, who produced the album, co-wrote the songs, comes forward for vocal duets on a few songs, arranged and performed nearly all the music, and even shares the front cover with Cohen.
		The approach is much the same as that of his past two albums, with the songs covering such staples as as romantic longing and drunken regret ("I fought against the bottle, but I had to do it drunk").
		He seems more at peace than in the past, with no songs as negative as "The Future," perhaps a result of the five years he spent as a Zen Buddist monk.

		Ten New Songs is Leonard Cohen's first collection of fresh material since 1992's The Future.
		In "The Land of Plenty" (RealAudio excerpt), Cohen offers a kind of prayer for the material world: "Don't really know who sent me to raise my voice and say/ May the lights in the land of plenty shine on the truth some day." Ten New Songs is an autumnal collection filled with wisdom.
		Ten New Songs is like an audio book of poetry set to rippling electronic pop.

		Every new Leonard Cohen record is greeted with a mix of head scratching and apathy, then months later, is heralded as a work of genius.
		This collection is no different: a brooding, relaxing and lazy sound canvas, Cohen garbling and grunting sentimental prose, angelic voices cooing in the background, a couple of gems destined to be much covered standards and City TV themes ("In My Secret Life," "Here It Is").
		Get over the painfully rudimentary cover art (another puzzling Cohen trademark), set the player to repeat, and submit.
