put lou reed closer. at least half way

then we're good

try harder

come on
i'm a huge lou reed and cohen fan but this just isn't true

That's an odd comparison. Lou isn't known for his songwriting like Cohen and Dylan, he's known for his experimentation.

This. Dylan wrote Gates of Eden and It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding and put them on the same album, back to back after having recorded them both on the same day.

But I will say that late-career Cohen is >>>>>>>>>>>>>> late-career Dylan and late-career Reed.

>>63490459
dylan peaked higher than the other two but i'd say lou has more notably good albums
haven't heard enough of cohen's later stuff to have an informed opinion on him tho

and all three are jewish
ho lee fuq

Kozelek > all those plebs

no one on any layer of irony thinks you're funny

>>63490593
im not being funny I'm being serious.
In fact Mark Kozelek, and Van Morrison are both a whole level above everyone mentioned in the OP

>>63490608
kozelek is pretentious garbo lyrics without any interesting instrumentals to hide it
van morrison is a glorified one hit wonder

>>63490636
Sounds like you just have shit taste. Listen to Ghosts of the Great Highway and Astral Weeks and come back.
In fact those aren't even that obscure, so I don't get why you would make such stupid remarks in the first place if you had actually listened to them.

Ray Davies is a better lyricist than any of them. Listen to Village Green Preservation Society.

shut up faggot

>>63488974
Waits > Cohen > Reed = Dylan

Just my 2 cents

>>63488974
It's literally the opposite of this.

>>63488974
Cohen > Lou Reed >>>>>> Dylan
Simplified it for you, friend
