I've never quite understood why this isn't widely regarded as one of his all time classics. It's up there with Don't think twice and Blowin in the Wind for me.
the popular songs are almost ALWAYS the ones people hear on the radio, that's the main kinda thing that makes them popular, the same old ones keep getting played over and over regardless of the so many other songs that are the majority of the time better.
@@kenbellchambers4577 I think it better come soon !! Funny because when this song was written it was to vanquish a different foe than the ones we are dealing with now....I remember because I was right in the thick of things back then. Hope we find some peace soon....all around.
I grew up listening to Bob's music , lyrics , paid attention to what event he would play at and so admired what he stood for. I am 68 yrs old and I am revisiting it all. It's again Inspiring , nostalgic and a bit sad. But I believe the day we've waited for will soon dawn. He gave us so much to think about. I feel such gratitude for this man. He's only Human . A Human that used his humble mystical gift to inspire the World .
The way Bob plays the harmonica in this song is probably one of the most perfect riffs ever played in all of the history of the mouth organ. You couldn't do something so brilliant with a multi-million-dollar cathedral organ.
This was one of the four songs that Bob performed as one of the opening acts for Martin Luther King's 'I have a dream' speech. When MLK delivered the speech, Bob stood only a few feet away from him.
@@ankeetgadtaula2173 I was wrong, he sang only 3 songs. Only A Pawn In Their Game and We Shall Overcome in a group. It was Peter, Paul, and Mary who sang Blowin In The Wind
Bob Dylan music has gotten me through the best of times, and the worst of times! Thanks to my best friend for introducing him to me with Blood on the Tracks in 1975 at age 17 years old.
What a brilliant man. Only a genius could put all those words together and make them ryme, and give us amazing songs that will forever have meaning. What a blessing and privaledge to have lived in his time. Jim S
Joan Baez tells the story of them signing in at a guesthouse somewhere and the owner upset Dylan somehow - he went upstairs to their room and wrote this song. Love the way he pronounces Goliath.
It was a clerk who wouldn’t give him a room supposedly because he looked/smelled like some gross poor kid - and he was a nobody as well at the time. Baez had to intervene to get him a room - she was famous at the time - and Dylan was indignant and humiliated. That said, it’s a bit facile to believe that just because he happened to write this song after that incident that it had to be about that. Seems a bit transparent and Dylan’s never been that. Maybe Baez believe it, although I’m sure Dylan would deny it on general principle if asked.
I was blessed to hear this song when it first was published, I was beginning my magical mystery tour. It still electrifies me. Listen to 'Dark Eyes' it is sooooo good!
@@kenbellchambers4577 I'm about the age dylan was when he wrote this song. Yet this song has a timelessness to it, it belongs up there with the ancient folk songs like stagger lee and wabash cannonball
@@TheMarshmelloKing Even better, as Dylan is always giving us back our lost ethical world view, not only making the best music I have ever heard. Blessings.
I love the light light wind that comes in right when he sings the first lines. You can almost hear it just as he sings "Oh the time will come up". It bears some kind of a quiet, restless happiness that wants into the world and gently comes into the world. It's like the purest and the most sincere smile of a person with the sun in their eyes. Few seconds in I knew I would like this song very much
Years from now kids will discover the genius of Bob dylan and marvel at the impact his poetry and music, just like we all have as we listen to his masterpieces.
Like the greatest line ever I song writing history" is the words that are used to get the ship confused will not be understood when they're spoken". Like Negative self talk or toxic people.
This is the first ever Bob Dylan song that I really listened to, for some reason I "discovered" him from the Traveling Wilburys, who I was obsessed with at the time, and I just listened to it over and over again, my favorite line is "But we'll shout from the bow your days are numberrred"
Oh, the time will come up When the winds will stop And the breeze will cease to be breathin' Like the stillness in the wind Before the hurricane begins The hour that the ship comes in And the seas will split And the ship will hit And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking Then the tide will sound And the wind will pound And the morning will be breaking Oh, the fishes will laugh As they swim out of the path And the seagulls they'll be smiling And the rocks on the sand Will proudly stand The hour that the ship comes in And the words that are used For to get the ship confused Will not be understood as they're spoken For the chains of the sea Will have busted in the night And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean A song will lift As the mainsail shifts And the boat drifts on to the shoreline And the sun will respect Every face on the deck The hour that the ship comes in Then the sands will roll Out a carpet of gold For your weary toes to be a-touchin' And the ship's wise men Will remind you once again That the whole wide world is watchin' Oh, the foes will rise With the sleep still in their eyes And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin' But they'll pinch themselves and squeal And know that it's for real The hour when the ship comes in Then they'll raise their hands Sayin' we'll meet all your demands But we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered And like Pharaoh's tribe They'll be drownded in the tide And like Goliath, they'll be conquered
Reminder to these lines made me shiver on my first overseas private flight, when the ATC asked to "report shoreline in sight" and some minutes later I pushed my PTT and reporterd "Tunisia radar, shoreline in sight, request info for approach and landing, OK-GUU.." And ever after. Decades back it was, still so strong. First time is only once. And the ship as well as an aircraft is SHE. Love that.
@@MajorTom88 On the other hand, electric planes already flying, solar panels running whole cities, and a growing will to take more environmental responsibility. Be the change you want to see. I do it, and it works.
@@nidhincherian2766 Whatever is true is okay, Nidhan. We were created to be carers of the Earth. Remember, the Lord is coming back to destroy those who destroy the planet. I am very sure that He will be glad to find people taking care of the Earth. I believe that if we all decided to take care of the planet together He might change His mind about the horrors soon to overwhelm the world. It is not very likely this will happen, but we cannot ignore the obvious damage that we have done, and it cannot be bad to try to make things better. The world might have to go through many terrible times, but even so, it is a good thing to try to clean up our mess anyway. Have you noticed how beautiful the sky is since the jets have been grounded? I am seeing skies so blue as I have not seen for over twenty years. This shows just how much damage just jets alone were doing to the entire Earth's atmosphere. It is a sign to us that we could have a much better planet if we just stopped demanding so much and spent more time taking care of wild lands, planting biodiverse forests, preserving habitats for wildlife, and cleaning up the terrible pollution in our rivers, lakes and seas, as well as making sure everyone has good chemical-free food. The coming world government will use environmental issues to control us, and this is because we really do need to do something, so they will use this truth to push their agenda, therefore this is a serious danger that we must be aware of. Those who wish to dominate the world use anything, true or false, to get what they are after, and climate change is one of those things. Many people say that climate change is not real, and many others say it is natural, but it is obvious that it is both real and anthropogenic. Peace and blessings Nidhan.
You are not talking about the planet Earth, are you? I don't think we are living in beautiful times. Fascism in the cloak of democracy, poor distribution of wealth, deafening propaganda everywhere, wars, degraded environment leading to more frequent and severe natural disasters, poverty, civil wars, inflation, overpopulation, nukes, shootings, terrorism, and so on is what I see and wish the world was a nicer place to live.
Listened to all of Dylan’s early albums right up to “Desire” in the mid-seventies. Haven’t listened to much of his stuff after “Slow Train Coming”, but still love the albums he put out in the sixties and seventies.

I just read a dream on Facebook of an ancient ship appearing on the beach. The mystic people aboard were heading towards some city. So, I placed a link to this song. Well done Bob Dylan! I think you informed us that the Age of Pisces is at an end.
Thank you for uploading a great Bob Dylan song. For many years I regularly checked if it was available on UA-cam and was surprised that this excellent song was still not uploaded.
Dylan has been an inspiration for me since the 1960's. Is been a long time, yet his talent never ceases to amaze, wow, this song is epic. First time I remember hearing this, a beloved friend wrote of this song & it certainly will not be the last time I listen.. genius💎
It's a beautiful Melody. Bob sings so emotional. Goes Straight to my heart. Love this a lot, it's relaxing and peaceful, exactly what I/we need, in this troubled would..🌺🐈🌸🐕🌺
A very bright ray of light on an otherwise dark album. Boots of Spanish Leather is my fave track on this one(i.e. the one I use to impress people with), but deep down, I want it to be When the Ship Comes In. :)

@@AA-sn9lz The ship and wind are conciousness maybe. The boat landing on the shore and the idiot wind, kind of feels like conciousness plus ordinariness, mystery plus worldliness.
I believe that 'they're painting the passports brown' is the most significant line that Mr. Dylan ever wrote. That act disrupted the burgeoning exploration of the cosmos. The largest crime against humanity ever enacted. You can't easily travel with a brown passport. They put the cosmonauts on the chain gang.
Ya know,,,it sounds so beautiful ...but when I tried to mouth these words..it was the hardest of any song ..The alliteration is just insane...when he sings it out ..you can't tell ,,,cause it's seamless ,,but ..you try it ...am I crazy ? ~ Jane
It is called the New Jerusalem, and it is huge. It is not far away but rendered invisible to us at the moment. Its disc type shuttles have been evacuating us for decades.
Oh the time will come up Oh, el momento llegará When the winds will stop en el que los vientos se detendrán And the breeze will cease to be breathin’ y en el que la brisa dejará de respirar. Like the stillness in the wind Como la calma en el viento, ’Fore the hurricane begins antes de que el huracán comience, The hour when the ship comes in será la hora en la que el barco llegue. Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit El mar se dividirá, el barco chocará And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking las arenas del litoral se estremecerán, Then the tide will sound luego la marea retumbará And the wind will pound y las olas golpearán, And the morning will be breaking y la mañana se quebrará. Oh the fishes will laugh Los peces reirán As they swim out of the path mientras nadan fuera de la senda, And the seagulls they’ll be smiling las gaviotas estarán sonriendo. And the rocks on the sand Y las piedras sobre la arena Will proudly stand se erguirán orgullosas. The hour that the ship comes in Es la hora de que el barco llegue. And the words that are used Y las palabras que se usen For to get the ship confused para confundir al barco Will not be understood as they’re spoken no serán comprendidas cuando se digan, For the chains of the sea pues las cadenas del mar Will have busted in the night habrán cedido en la noche And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean y habrán sido enterradas en el fondo del océano. A song will lift Se elevará una canción As the mainsail shifts mientras se enmiende la vela, And the boat drifts on to the shoreline el barco es arrastrado hasta la orilla. And the sun will respect Y el sol respetará Every face on the deck cada uno de los rostros en cubierta. The hour that the ship comes in Es la hora de que el barco llegue. Then the sands will roll Luego las arenas explotarán Out a carpet of gold una alfombra dorada For your weary toes to be a-touchin’ para que nuestros cansados pies puedan pisarla. And the ship’s wise men Y los hombres sabios del barco Will remind you once again te recordarán una vez más That the whole wide world is watchin’ que el mundo entero está observando. Oh the foes will rise Se levantarán los enemigos With the sleep still in their eyes con el sueño aún en sus ojos And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re dreamin’ y saltarán de sus camas pensando que están soñando, But they’ll pinch themselves and squeal pero luego se pellizcarán y chillarán, And know that it’s for real y sabrán que es real. The hour when the ship comes in Es la hora de que el barco llegue. Then they’ll raise their hands Entonces elevarán las manos Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands diciendo que aceptan sus exigencias, But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered pero desde la proa nosotros gritaremos que sus días están contados. And like Pharoah’s tribe Y, como el ejército del Faraón, They’ll be drownded in the tide se ahogarán en la marea; And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered y como Goliat, serán derrotados.
If friends say they’re not interested in Dylan, I play them black diamond bay. If they need convincing, I play chimes of freedom. If they’re still not sure, well I could play this, but they’re probably not deserving.
I've never quite understood why this isn't widely regarded as one of his all time classics. It's up there with Don't think twice and Blowin in the Wind for me.
we understand, it's an all time classic, we.
The harmonica is exquisite. Every single note is a perfect diamond.
And One more Cup of coffee...

Wasn’t released as a single, so just doesn’t enter the public consciousness in quite the same way.
Poetically, this has to be amongst some of the greatest lyrics ever written, IMHO.
agreed
I actually believe that the day is coming when the seagulls will actually smile.
a great sense of being grateful for the hope it proclaims
The symbolism he uses is amazing.
A lot of Dylan songs can bring tears to your eyes. But with this one, these are tears of hope and joy
Almost all of his songs bring tears to my eyes. Corina, Dark Eyes, Girl From the North Country...........and so many more.
@@oddity6248 I am not saying it is bad, I am saying it moves me deeply. I am waiting expectantly for that ship to come in.

How can one man write more meaningful songs than the rest of humanity combined?
Cos he's Bob Dylan
His folks governed Egypt, Persia, and some other empires. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Part of the cosmic joke.
Hes a 300 year old wanderer.
That's pure genius. The prophet's genius....
A song for our times. It was an anthem when I was a teen, maybe it will become an anthem again?
It has never stopped being my anthem, and I am old.
Indeed! Ill stand for it.lol.
IDK if it's an anthem but as a young activist it helps keep me going when I feel hopeless and overwhelmed.
Never a wasted word
Never.The lyrics.,the Melody,his heart.The BEST one
The harmonica riff also is like a diamond necklace. It is perfect - every note of it.
This song is a poetry masterpiece. Everything falls into place perfectly.
I feel ready to start the revolution whenever I hear this song ...

Two of his greatest of greatest. Thank you.
Tell me ONE "social injustice" that still exist today except morality being destroyed by the idiotic Left?
This song is so amazing there aren't words to describe the feeling of inspiration and and hope and so much more that it gives

always loved this one. was the only upbeat song on the album. terrific. thank you bob's people
It's wonderful.
The Times They’re Changin’ is pretty upbeat too.
With Dylan downbeat is upbeat.

i was born in 68. I love Bob's early to mid sixties very much.
Listened to all of Dylan’s early albums right up to “Desire” in the mid-seventies. Haven’t listened to much of his stuff after “Slow Train Coming”, but still love the albums he put out in the sixties and seventies.
Let us all pray that it comes true...our only hope.
It will come true for sure. May these days be shortened.
Dylan is really a man of many sides,and still one can hear him call out for you ❤️
When listen to Dylan,his Words strikes you and goes directly to the heart ❤️

I believe that 'they're painting the passports brown' is the most significant line that Mr. Dylan ever wrote. That act disrupted the burgeoning exploration of the cosmos. The largest crime against humanity ever enacted. You can't easily travel with a brown passport. They put the cosmonauts on the chain gang.
😂One of his best for sure. victory for America Victory. For Love. AMEN
Fantastic Lyrics fm Bob.
well...you uploaded my fav Dylan song at my birthday, thank you man
Fantastic song
On est dans le même bateau 💕
Lord willin', it shall be revealed come Tuesday.
Was it? I am waiting for the cabal who stole the election to crumble.
Wonderful!
like the stillness of the wind before the hurricane begins
Love the Pogues cover of this!
Age means nothing to genius..❤
thanks for what youve already done and maybe thats enough and i hope someone wakes us up
Одна из величайших песен в истории музыки
Dylan sang this with Joan Baez at the 1963 March on Washington and the words, "That the whole wide world is watching" were never more poignant.
Imagine having opened for the I Have a Dream speech on your resume?
Dylan at his sharpest!!!!!!!!!!
Magic@!!
This album came out when I was thirteen. I''m still waiting for the Ship to come it.
Don't fret Dave, it's a slow train coming.
".....and like Goliath they'll be conquered"
Btw, I was at that march on Washington, too, that day.
Love this one! The whole album, too.
I played this song in 2008 I hope to play this song in 2020
I love this song.
=]
♡♡♡ im here for this♡
Same for me
Ya know,,,it sounds so beautiful ...but when I tried to mouth these words..it was the hardest of any song ..The alliteration is just insane...when he sings it out ..you can't tell ,,,cause it's seamless ,,but ..you try it ...am I crazy ? ~ Jane
Something many people find out when trying to cover him, assuming it'd be an easy task.
Magic!
For some reason I thought of this song this morning in Church.The Church is the prisoner of hope! We are awaiting the arrival of the Ship.
It is called the New Jerusalem, and it is huge. It is not far away but rendered invisible to us at the moment. Its disc type shuttles have been evacuating us for decades.
15, March 2019. Christchurch, New Zealand. Never Forget.
Never forget that it's a hoax.
Never forget 👏😊
I love Bob Dylan but I've never heard this song until now, March On Washington,
Oh the time will come up
Oh, el momento llegará
When the winds will stop
en el que los vientos se detendrán
And the breeze will cease to be breathin’
y en el que la brisa dejará de respirar.
Like the stillness in the wind
Como la calma en el viento,
’Fore the hurricane begins
antes de que el huracán comience,
The hour when the ship comes in
será la hora en la que el barco llegue.
Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit
El mar se dividirá, el barco chocará
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
las arenas del litoral se estremecerán,
Then the tide will sound
luego la marea retumbará
And the wind will pound
y las olas golpearán,
And the morning will be breaking
y la mañana se quebrará.
Oh the fishes will laugh
Los peces reirán
As they swim out of the path
mientras nadan fuera de la senda,
And the seagulls they’ll be smiling
las gaviotas estarán sonriendo.
And the rocks on the sand
Y las piedras sobre la arena
Will proudly stand
se erguirán orgullosas.
The hour that the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.
And the words that are used
Y las palabras que se usen
For to get the ship confused
para confundir al barco
Will not be understood as they’re spoken
no serán comprendidas cuando se digan,
For the chains of the sea
pues las cadenas del mar
Will have busted in the night
habrán cedido en la noche
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean
y habrán sido enterradas en el fondo del océano.
A song will lift
Se elevará una canción
As the mainsail shifts
mientras se enmiende la vela,
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline
el barco es arrastrado hasta la orilla.
And the sun will respect
Y el sol respetará
Every face on the deck
cada uno de los rostros en cubierta.
The hour that the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.
Then the sands will roll
Luego las arenas explotarán
Out a carpet of gold
una alfombra dorada
For your weary toes to be a-touchin’
para que nuestros cansados pies puedan pisarla.
And the ship’s wise men
Y los hombres sabios del barco
Will remind you once again
te recordarán una vez más
That the whole wide world is watchin’
que el mundo entero está observando.
Oh the foes will rise
Se levantarán los enemigos
With the sleep still in their eyes
con el sueño aún en sus ojos
And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re dreamin’
y saltarán de sus camas pensando que están soñando,
But they’ll pinch themselves and squeal
pero luego se pellizcarán y chillarán,
And know that it’s for real
y sabrán que es real.
The hour when the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.
Then they’ll raise their hands
Entonces elevarán las manos
Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands
diciendo que aceptan sus exigencias,
But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered
pero desde la proa nosotros gritaremos que sus días están contados.
And like Pharoah’s tribe
Y, como el ejército del Faraón,
They’ll be drownded in the tide
se ahogarán en la marea;
And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered
y como Goliat, serán derrotados.
Wonderful! this song looks like the scenery after the deluge
Love it, it is so inspirational.💖
If friends say they’re not interested in Dylan, I play them black diamond bay. If they need convincing, I play chimes of freedom. If they’re still not sure, well I could play this, but they’re probably not deserving.
Que bueno es este trovador ,hace muchos años que comprara el LP donde está esta bella canción
