    .dylan is the only guy i've found with such a huge load of unreleased gems...with most artists usually there one or two scraps of an idea or an early version of something but dylan's back catalog of unreleased masterpieces is unparalleled. ya know?which isn't to say that this in particular is a masterpiece but it's perty fooking good. and to cast aside something like blind willie mctell as an out take...you can see why he is better than anybody else. thanks for the reminder.

    So many emotions trapped in that one voice. It doesnt even have a wide range in the song. Just up and down. But in it i can hear sadness, anger, love, humour, spite. Hes a ventriliquest for prisims of emotion. No one can sing his songs like dylan sings them. One of the greatest artists of the 20th cent.

    Yes, just one line of Dylan's can do that: "I could see by his eyes he was alone"... magic.

      Yeah that line always resonated with me as well.

    There is something so fabulously melancholy about this

    This is the lost gem to the cutting edge period. This is going to stay his most underrated song of all time. He wrote this this is not improv this is almost fully developed with his use of the phrase van high used cleverly each refrain different fresh not repetitive at all
    yet a hook.
    This is a masterpiece. Too bad never recorded in studio

    His words are poetry that hits you delayed. I'm slow but the longer I wait the more I feel what he's sayiin. He's a neat fella

    The fans got it from a joke by a writer named Paul Cable. Cable was writing about the song "Tell Me Momma" back in the 70s, before it was officially released, and he joked that it probably had some unknown official title like "Spuriously Seventeen Widows."

    is the full one online? The one with the verse about Dylan accused of stealing pictures of everyone's mother? Very funny stuff...

    those are called adverbs ... (obviously, positively, absolutely, etc.)

  • @nitrousnine
    @nitrousnine 12 років тому

    not even approximately.

    oh and Dylan didn't name this song either. it was an untitled. his fans named it this.

    Ryan Adams is a modern day artist that has a lot of outtakes better than most people's official releases.

  • @ZachKopkaZake

    I just wonder if he is the character who stole pictures of everybody's mother
