tell that to the byrds, the beach boys, simon and garfunkel, my three favortie versions besides dylan himself, but the best ever was the one dylan sang at the white house in 2008 i believe, his old, horase voice gives the song an even greater meaning i think.
beautiful version, the piano also adds something to the majesty of the lyrics.
@OropherThranduil check out the version done by keb' mo'... my personal favorite. /watch?v=U_pcX16yc5c... i hate obama, but its the only video on youtube with it. eddie vedder's isnt bad either
imagine this being sung on some far reaching colony of earth a thousand years from now :'). I like Bob Dylans version the most because it's kind of like sad and envoking the future at the same time but i'm a huge Phil Collins fan too.
no matter who does this song, i think they all do a great impression, it dont matter who good or whos bad all that matter is that they keeping the song alive
Di gran lunga la migliore cover dello storico brano di Dylan.
La sua carica e significato, già dirompenti, sono molto accentuati ed esaltati dal ritmo,secco, incessante e ben scandito della batteria e chitarre.E dalla voce, molto estesa, di Phil.
Tanto che il brano diventa trascinante ed emotivamente coinvolgente ben più dell'originale.
Esso,poi, culmina nello splendido ed azzeccatissimo suono delle cornamuse. Con cui l'esercito scozzese andava alla carica in guerra.
I really like this. It's different, but I'm glad there are so many different records of this song. I really have to give Phil here credit for getting the word "prophesy" right. The original had "prophesize," which, of course, is not a real word.
I think its just a difference in tones, here. The Dylan version, to me anyway, has always been somber and angry. Kind of defying the status quo, in a way. Which is great. I think Phil's version is more Joyous in tone. Its almost like he is celebrating that the "times are changing," if you will.
nobody sang dylan like the byrds, but this great song was also recorded by the beach boys for their party album sung by dennis wilson (if you find the original sessions you have beautiful versions without the overdubbed party sounds and screaming and singalong) and also on the debut of simon and garfunkel (quiter version, beautiful acoustic playing and harmonizing like you can imagine).
but my favorite version is the one dylan sang in 2008 at the white house, so much feeling.
Phil arrangia questo brano storico (e, all'epoca , di dirompente carica innovativa) in modo magnifico rendendolo ben più vivo, intenso e coinvolgente della versione orginale di Dylan tramite il ritmo gradualmente sempre più sostenuto e ben scandito della chitarra e delle percussioni. Come se fosse una carica dell'esercito. Culminando ,alla fine, nel suono delle cornamuse (con cui, appunto, l'esercito scozzese andava alla carica in battaglia).Un idea geniale.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this song is made by Bob D to perform only by Bob D . and thats a fact ! but phills best fans will apriciate it igues coz its kick ass lyrics right there ,
If that's the case then it's funny that it's a folk music standard and one of the most performed songs of the 20th century. Of course, similar things could be said for quite a few of Mr. Zimmerman's songs.
Phil has GOT it! Great performance. I was looking for a performance like this, and clicked on this video with great expectation... and yes!!! But I also like Bob's quiet and serious way. It speaks to other moods of us. More contemplative. Great artists.
yes I know.....And I totally admire and respect this but I was just putting out that I prefer Bob Dylan even though there both fantastic....No negativity intended even if it sounded like that
Ok, first off. Phil did three tours in the 90's. Serious Hits... Live! (i have the DVD), Both Sides Tour, and Dance Into The Light tour (I also have the DVD). While after research, I did conclude that is Ricky Lawson in this video (sorry dude), but Chester does play on the Serious Hits...Live! and the Dance Into The Light tours
Yes he did three tours i always forget the seriuosly tour but that is the only one Chester played on as both the other two tours had Ricky Lawson on them.
I took a picture of Chester and compared them to the video from the Dance into the Light tour and Both Sides Tour, and I concluded that it is Chester playing in both tours.
Look on here for drum into for both sides tour and its quite clearly Ricky. Then look at Sussodio for the Dance into the light tour and you can quite easily see its Ricky again. Chester on came back on his final farewell tour. Oh and by the way i went to both tours and have the concert programmes and it doesnt have chester in either!!!
nice vocal but the drums and fake bagpipes are just overly poppy. too much like the carpenters, starting off as a serious ballad and then abruptly becoming some booty-shaking mess after the first two-minutes
Per me,invece, il brano di Phil è molto più rabbioso e trascinante di quello di Dylan perchè è sostenuto dal ritmo incalzante della batteria e delle chitarre.
Le quali rendono ben più di Dylan la carica dirompente del brano.
Infatti Phil rappresenta bene la marcia incalzante ed entusiasmante di coloro che si accingono a cambiare l'ordine stantio ed intollerabile delle cose. La quale non può non essere seccamente ed incessantemente ritmata.
No offense to Bob Dylan or any Dylan fans, but even though this is my favorite of his songs, I still prefer Phil's version of this song. It's more up to date. Bob's songs are timeless however.
He makes it a progressive pop song. It's not what I'd call "up to date". There's more music in it, which is a good point, anyway. I do like it, but Dylan's version directly touches the heart.
I was just responding to someone who said it was "up to date". Progressive rock music takes us back to the 70's, don't they? So I was just saying that, even though I DO LIKE THIS VERSION, you cannot call it "up to date".
Plus, what you say is totally unfounded. Collins was a great drummer in Genesis, but now, what does he do? He can sing, indeed. But don't get me wrong, cause I said I do like it!
