Great stuff. Not quite in keeping with the spirit of the original. This is an entirely different take! But good stuff nonetheless. Great voice too. Reminiscent of classic Mark Cohn.
Consequently, for those of us familiar with the original this inevitably doesn't sound quite right. That said, as a fresh interpretation of the lyrics, you have, as always, done an excellent job. I'd strongly recommend that you take a lot at the Dylan songs 'Girl from the North Country' and 'Boots of Spanish Leather' both of which would suit your style admirably.
Unlike your cover of "Don't think Twice", which you interpret wonderfully, this loses the complexity of the original. The original wasn't intended to describe missing someone you love in a yearning romantic fashion (in the sense of being "head over heels with someone" as you describe) but rather in the desperate and tragic sense of losing forever the thing you love most. (the context is that of a breakdown of a marriage.)
Dude, once again. Beautiful rendition of Dylan. Don't listen to that jerk who said this was boy-band stuff and said stay away from Dylan. He'd probably say Nick Drake was boy-band too. This was beautiful!
Its boy band stuff again & you would succeed there! but dlyan stuff you can't do and i can see you don't now what he was about. not bad for what it is. good luck lad!
Well played sir. I too was introduced to this song throuh Shawn Colvin and prefer her version to Dylan's original as well. Dylan was a phenomenal songwriter, but generally I'd rather not hear him perform.
I like what you've done with it. Very similar to Colvin's, but it's nice to hear it from a male vocalist. Your version lacks some of the dynamics and punch, bt that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's a more even handed and laid back approach.
Okkk you are the best of the best... IM YOUR BIGGEST FAAAN.. you roock boyy..!! pleaaseee I want your songs or videos for my ipod.. where can I get them?? mafer/venezuela
Don't listen to negative criticism. You've taken one of the best songs written by a great songwriter and made it your own. Your talent is obvious. Good luck to you.
Awesome! Beautiful as anything can be!!!

I actually prefer bob dylan's original, but that may just be because I grew up listening to him. Oh, and I have to say you're quite fantastic.
