Aaron Neville & Daniel Lanois

http://www.squidoo.com/daniel-lanois-songwriter
Aaron Neville's great cover of With God In Our Side. Daniel Lanois on guitar.

But now we got weapons
Of the chemical dust
If fire them we're forced to
Then fire them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God's on your side.

In a many dark hour
I've been thinkin' about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you
You'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.

So now as I'm leavin'
I'm weary as Hell
The confusion I'm feelin'
Ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor
If God's on our side
He'll stop the next war.

Curse you, Aaron for taking a classic Dylan song opposing religious / nationalistic fervor and turning it into the opposite. You suck and this is a travesty, a complete betrayal of Dylan's original intent. I hope he sues you.

Funny that Dylan decided to work with Lanois after listening Aaron sing his song in a New Orleans studio. The curse has been reversed to you, sorry :-)

i don't know which is more amazing, aaron or the explosive guitar... :D

[bscondict]

Big scary lookin' man with a beautiful soul , love you Aaron !

@cobwebs22 He is truly one of only a handful of male vocalists with a distinctive voice. I can think of lots of females where you know it is them the second they sing, but so few men.

The Neville Bros version came out in 89 or so, so I doubt Bob is going to sue. Don't be an ignorant douche.

I think Aaron needs a little cocoa butter.

[valerie16000]

One of the best voices I have ever heard, if not the best. It goes right to my heart.

To the ignorant person with the huge load of negativity. The energy expressed in this song by the Neville Brothers is exactly what Dylan expressed when he sang it with Joan Baez at Folk Festivals (to protest the war) in the 60's. Grow up, please. And, yes, educate yourself as well!

[zeppy13131]

Aaron's a phenomenon... He looks so tough, yet sings with such sensitivity.

[zockiemczock]

with god on our side.... the neville brothers made a very legitimate version of this song, apart from the fact i dint like bob dylan coverss. this is the only good one!!!!!!

[cobwebs22]

[TheDiarmaidable]
