Photography: Leonard Cohen @ 02 Arena

Leonard Cohen opened his London show at O2 Arena with the heartfelt ‘Dance Me To The End Of Love’. As part of his ongoing and extensive world tour, the master of poetic song arrived on stage in an almost spritely manner, with a band all sharply dressed in suits. Falling to his knees to sing parts of the song, he had the audience enthralled from the first moment. Imelda Michalczyk went along to photograph.
