This was Leonard Cohen's 8th studio album, released in 1988. It was seen as a return to form for him and was widely praised by critics. This album is a classic, for me. Excellent.

AllMusic gave the album 4.5/5 stars:

A stunningly sophisticated leap into modern musical textures, I'm Your Man re-establishes Leonard Cohen's mastery. Against a backdrop of keyboards and propulsive rhythms, Cohen surveys the global landscape with a precise, unflinching eye: the opening "First We Take Manhattan" is an ominous fantasy of commercial success bundled in crypto-fascist imagery, while the remarkable "Everybody Knows" is a cynical catalog of the land mines littering the surface of love in the age of AIDS.
