The world reacted with collective grief over the loss of legendary Canadian singer/songwriter Leonard Cohen, as famous fans took to social media to express their love and gratitude for his soulful, timeless music.
"For many of us Leonard Cohen was the greatest songwriter of them all," Nick Cave wrote on Facebook. "Utterly unique and impossible to imitate no matter how hard we tried. He will be deeply missed by so many."
Leonard Cohen has died. Another magical voice stilled.
