Happy Birthday Robyn :)

Dylan's version has a sense of foreboding and resignation to the inevitable that makes it much more powerful then any cover I've heard, including this one.

Great cover

only 25k views on this ? What is every body' afraid of - the dark :) ? This is an excellent read on Dylan's honest lines to mid to late life. Dylan's was good of course, but this might be just as good.

@warmjet ?? wha?? can you be specific about that? I know "that's why there's chocolate *and* vanilla," but I'm still curious what offends you about it. I'm genuinely interested, I'm not flaming.
I'd give a JJ Cale cover a listen too.

@Mntgoatsfan RH may not've written the song, but he sure did inhabit that performance. Full presence in every word, every note. Quiet and un-ignorable.

0:37 he looks just like julian assange!
One of my favorite Dylan songs (keeps getting better) covered by one of my favorite artists. Really beautiful.
"Sometimes I wonder if she was even there..." is a nice echo to Robyn's "She doesn't exist anymore." Nice.
I saw Robyn live once in London, and he introduced "Queen Elvis" as "This is about the descent into stardom." Brilliant.
