Leonard Cohen Praises Glastonbury Festival's 'Angels Of The Mud'

Veteran performer Leonard Cohen praised the “angels born of the mud” during his performance a the Glastonbury Festival yesterday (June 29th).

Cohen's set on the Pyramid Stage was one of the highlights of the final day of the festival and comprised of a majority of his classic hits, including 'So Long, Marianne' and 'Suzanne'.

But it was Cohen's performance of 'Hallelujah' that proved to be the unforgettable moment for many festivalgoers.

The singer changed the songs lyrics as the sun set over Worthy Farm, singing: "I told the truth, I didn't come to Glastonbury to fool you" instead of “I told the truth, I didn't come here to fool you"
