On May 14, 2012, the famous Canadian singer and songwriter Leonard Cohen was nominated for the ninth Laureate Of Glenn Gould Prize. In his speech he revealed that he interviewed Gould in his early 20s for a magazine. The interview which should have lasted a few minutes long stretched into an hourly long conversation whilst Cohen almost forgot about the actual interview itself and stopped taking notes. After returning to his home in Montreal to write about the interview Cohen realized that he couldn't remember a single thing of that encounter.
