不以歌唱为事业动机，却因文学创作而被网罗进入唱片界，虽未缔造过任何排行榜畅销单曲，却能在全球卖出超过一千一百万张唱片－当今西洋流行歌坛，仅只LeonardCohen一人。身兼诗人、歌手、小说家等名头，自幼便对文学创作产生浓烈兴趣，而他理性、冷漠，时而玩世不恭的演唱方式，更让作品深具客观、多角度的欣赏价值。 70岁，对于一个流行歌手来说，实在是个不可理喻的年龄，而在这个时候，Leonard Cohen发表了他的最新创作专辑：《TenNew Songs》。

In My Secret Life
歌词:
I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There no one in sight.
And we still making love
In My Secret Life.
I smile when I angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong.
And I know what is right.
And I die for the truth
In My Secret Life.
Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.
Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it either black or white.
Thank G-d it not that simple
In My Secret Life.
I bite my lip.
I buy what I told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.
