At the end of Tower Of Song, with the background of the familiar "Doo dum dum dum deh doo dum dum...", Leonard Cohen paid a moving tribute to Sharon Robinson, Hatty & Charley Webb, his back up singers.

Don't stop

Oh, sweet sounds

reach at me now

Sharon...Hattie...Charley

Have I told you how much I appreciate your back up singing

that you've given me these past years

It has meant a great deal to me

It has sweetened my voice

and made it acceptable to me

Thank you so much
