LOS ANGELES -- Leonard Cohen, the singer-songwriter who profoundly influenced multiple generations with his cerebral and darkly meditative songs, has died, his record label confirmed on his Facebook page Thursday night. He was 82.。
"It is with profound sorrow we report that legendary poet, songwriter and artist, Leonard Cohen has passed away," reads the post. "We have lost one of music’s most revered and prolific visionaries. A memorial will take place in Los Angeles at a later date. The family requests privacy during their time of grief."。

In fact, Cohen released two records in the past three years, Popular Problems。In fact, Cohen released two records in the past three years, Popular Problems 。in 2014 and。 You Want it Darker。in October, and both were well-received.
