  • 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.

  • Wow. Best Dylan cover EVER!

  • 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

  • 11 Dylan fans have a narrow-world-view

  • 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.

  • brilliant. its good this version was captured on good quality film.

  • thanks rob.

  • 0:37 he looks just like julian assange!
