885 Judy Collins “Suzanne” 1966

“I have always been grateful that I did not fall in love with Leonard [Cohen] in the way that I fell in love with his songs. I could have, certainly. He had that charm, that glint in his eyes, that secretly knowing air that always attracted me to the dangerous ones—men who had fantastic sex appeal, were terribly smart and funny, and seemed to slip in and out of other women’s lives. I adored Leonard, but thankfully it wasn’t the kind of passion that got me into trouble. Instead, his songs would let me fly” (Judy Collins, Sweet Judy Blue Eyes: My Life in Music, 2011).
