I love this one! Simply and elegantly beautiful. These wonderful, brave, and honourable men , all of tbem, on both sides, Americans all. They dearly deserve our respect and understanding, not the current wave of vilification, lack of understanding, unjust labeling, stereotyping and contempt.
Being from the South I can't feel any sorrow for the North. Both sides owned slaves and they were already being phased out by the Cotton Gin. This War never had to happen. I feel like all the North did was make us all Slaves to Lincolns over bloated Government.
"Future years will never know the seething hell and the black infernal background of this war; and it is best they should not- the real war will never get into the books... Those years are in danger of being totally forgotten...The history will not only never be written-its practicality, minutiae of deeds and passions, will never be even suggested. The actual soldier of 1862-65, North and South, with all his ways, his incredible dauntlessness, habits, practices, tastes, language, his fierce friendship, his appetite, rankness, his superb strength and animality, lawless gait, and a hundred unnamed lights and shades of camp, I say, will never be written-perhaps must not and should not be." - Walt Whitman.
Wenn man beide Filme gesehen hat, wirklich große Klasse. Ich habe Gänsehaut bei manchen Szenen, und übertrage dieses einfach mal auf das Lied.. die Filme "Gods and Generals" sowie "Gettysburg" haben echt Respekt verdient.
I keep listening to this beautiful musical video. It's my favourite Dylan piece. As a Southerner I'm deeply moved. I've shared with my Facebook Southern groups. Thanks so much!
I cross the Green Mountain I sit by the stream Heaven blazing in my head I I dreamed a monstrous dream Something came up Out of the sea Swept through the land of The rich and the free I look into the eyes Of my merciful friend And then I ask myself Is this the end? Memories linger Sad yet sweet And I think of the souls in heaven who will be Alters are burning The flames far and wide The fool has crossed over From the other side They tip their caps From the top of the hill You can feel them come All brave blood do spill Along the dim Atlantic line The rapper's land Lasts for miles behind The lights coming forward And the streets are broad All must yield To the avenging God
A green mountain. Symbolic. I look into the eyes of my merciful friend. The foe was not. Tip their caps. I'm a southern man. It wasn't slavery. Our rights were being taken away. Every man and our great southern Belles had a right. To stand and fight for one another. God bless our Southern Belles.
You are 100% right !!! The feel, the words, the tones of the full version just add up to one of the best songs ever performed. For instance, when the hammond organ comes in at 2.17....its enough to make your heart almost burst with emotion........well, at least to me anyways !
Something about this song makes me keep coming back to play it. Its real chill and the lyrics with Dylan is really 😎. In my opinion that soundtrack gods and generals is only worth getting for this 🎶 😆
They need to see the light and produce Last Full Measure already. And The Band's "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" should be the credits song for that one.
Agreed! I've been waiting on 'Last Full Measure" for a long time. I would be ecstatic if they would go ahead and film it. I loved "Gettysburg" and "Of Gods and Generals." Two of the most accurate and factual movies ever made about the war. But, of course, it's all about money and I understand that "Of Gods and Generals" didn't do so well at the box office - can't imagine why - it was an awesome film.
I think most of the cast is too old to return. If they made Last Full Measure, they'd have to recast everyone. I don't think I can see anybody but Jeff Daniels playing Chamberlain.
@@petemcphillips502 the first one was already 8hrs long and had to cut it down so people would go and see it. That I do know I know alot of reenactors who was part of the film and said even though it was a trilogy the last one would never happen.
The way things are in America it will never ever happen, plus the most of the actors who was in that film are either dead or in their 60/70s now. Most of the extras was reenactors I cant see many wanting to get in their uniforms at the moment.
Wiki and thee shall find. Dylan refers to Stonewall Jackson, accidentally shot by Confederate pickets. Lost an arm to amputation, but died several days later anyway. A considerable loss to the Confederate command. Having not seen the film, and not being an expert on the history of the Civil War, I had imagined someone shot deliberately by his own men - fragged - as happened on occasion in Vietnam, when soldiers refused to obey suicidal orders.
Always fun to watch Dylan as the "Yiddish sutler." (U.S. Grant banned all Jews from the State of Mississippi following the fall of Vicksburg, largely due to his distaste for the sutlers.)
its january 16 2017... curtain raising maybe on the new american civil war. god bless america and blind willie mctell. may he bring sense to your country people.
Jason S dude... Sheen did do a pretty good job playing Lee.... But Robert Duvall... Probably played the best Lee in movie history. Duvall is in a whole other league as an actor from Martin sheen.
amazingly beautiful no what what he does! Never creepy ! I finally found the matching video to a photo I treasure, xoxoxoxoxoxo Bob Dylan can ride a horse! And oh, what a beauty! I love his band members Tony Garnier and Larry C also I am still studying who all appears. This must have been pre- or interim Charlie Sexton.
Our second attempt to have freedom from an oppressive government practicing tyranny. The first was the Revolutionary War against the tyranny of England. The second was the South's attempt to be free from the tyranny of the North.
Wonderful song, one of Dylan's best and most heartfelt compositions. I'm sorry we don't hear the long version here. I'd like to know who was the commander shot down by his own men. That said, let me take issue with those of you who believe the CSA was merely fighting for states' rights. The only such right in dispute was the right to enslave human beings and keep them that way. In the law there is the notion of competing interests, and judges often have to decide how to balance such interests and how much importance to apportion to one or the other. Sorry, but states' rights have an extremely weak claim compared to basic human liberty. (Read John Locke on natural human rights, first of all to property, of which the most basic is that one's own body is one's property. He did not exclude black people.) This poor understanding of the concept of "humanity" on the part of slaveowners and their allies brought the USA into its bloodiest, most tragic war. All this does not mean that those who fought and died - on either side - do not deserve our compassion and honor.
The commander referred to in the song was Stonewall Jackson, accidentally killed by his own pickets as he was riding back into camp one foggy night, as they mistook him and his accompanying staff for union cavalry.
Example: "Shake his hand when you get there. In fact, you'll be so damned busy shaking familiar hands that you will hardly notice the heat." Like, in desert heaven.....? Whose hand? Jesus' hand?
if you searching for shelter in the storm and you have the choice of two houses one is a christian's house and one a atheist's house which would you chose? me i go to the atheist's house much saver and the chances are grrat that i can smoke in there
Its foolish to think that one is better than the other due to his or her belief, as some are much nicer than others. If you should ever judge, do so not by the principle but by the attitude of how they deliver them. I simply ask that you not conform your nature to the ugliness of hate and stereotypical nonsense. Please.
If you asked me which house to pick, I'd say, "The one that is the closest." Hehehe. I have no time in my life to spare for favoritism. It is useless and offers no benefit.
If God is truly the way you believe him to be, then perhaps Hell is the better place to be. If God is truly the way you believe him to be, then Justice and Morality is merely an unattainable dream. I hope for the sake of mankind, God is not the way you believe him to be. May those who care about others, and those who do not look down on others for believing or not believing in God, and those who do what's right, whether they walk with God or not, spend eternity in Heaven.
Outta the sea. Do not divide us. If you do...y'all will not know what hits you until you until it is too late. The monster from the depths will overcome you democrats.
NESARA/GESARA; it is the end of human trafficking, treasonous elections, and the central banks. The 2020 election was a sting and soon, they will pull closed the dragnet.
I was waiting for the song, but it never played, I never heard the particular song. I liked how they used the movie set for a music video, just a great idea, and the movie was well.
I am so glad Bob Dylan did this song and video. What a treasure.
Magnificent Talent! Gotta be the best folk singer ever!
Beautiful song. I love this movie & I had relatives in the confederate army. I'm proud of it!
I love this one! Simply and elegantly beautiful. These wonderful, brave, and honourable men , all of tbem, on both sides, Americans all. They dearly deserve our respect and understanding, not the current wave of vilification, lack of understanding, unjust labeling, stereotyping and contempt.
Amen!
Being from the South I can't feel any sorrow for the North. Both sides owned slaves and they were already being phased out by the Cotton Gin. This War never had to happen. I feel like all the North did was make us all Slaves to Lincolns over bloated Government.
i can't stop watching this video over and over, I can't get over Bob Dylan
Flower yeah he's pretty old and creepy
@@dylanjunke you're young and ignorant, Jeremy. And you look way creepier than Bob.

This movie might have been the greatest "prequel" I've ever seen!!!. Good song too!!!.
I keep listening to this beautiful musical video. It's my favourite Dylan piece. As a Southerner I'm deeply moved. I've shared with my Facebook Southern groups. Thanks so much!
This is such a moving song. I'm an unreconstructed Southerner, and find Bob Dylan amazing. Couldn't believe that he made this video.
such a simple moving song.
I cross the Green Mountain
I sit by the stream
Heaven blazing in my head I
I dreamed a monstrous dream
Something came up
Out of the sea
Swept through the land of
The rich and the free
I look into the eyes
Of my merciful friend
And then I ask myself
Is this the end?
Memories linger
Sad yet sweet
And I think of the souls in heaven who will be
Alters are burning
The flames far and wide
The fool has crossed over
From the other side
They tip their caps
From the top of the hill
You can feel them come
All brave blood do spill
Along the dim
Atlantic line
The rapper's land
Lasts for miles behind
The lights coming forward
And the streets are broad
All must yield
To the avenging God
Together with Not Dark Yet and Blind Willie McTell the greatest Song from Bob Dylan in the recent decades!!
Amazing & engagingly reminiscent to all our heritage as Americans, the tears & trials & tribulations we've endured through time & triumph.
+Trip Lucid And we've got the museums to prove life during civil war was tough in the South.
A green mountain. Symbolic. I look into the eyes of my merciful friend. The foe was not. Tip their caps. I'm a southern man. It wasn't slavery. Our rights were being taken away. Every man and our great southern Belles had a right. To stand and fight for one another. God bless our Southern Belles.
Bob Dylan what a genius !
this song and music video brings tears to my eyes thanks bob dylan i love this song and music video i even on this cd
No one speaks about the horrors of war with greater eloquence than Bob Dylan. Peace....
Excellent song - excellent video. So moving, such pain, such loss & Bob chooses one cool outfit!
Phenomenal song. The 8 minute version is one of his all time great songs.
You are 100% right !!! The feel, the words, the tones of the full version just add up to one of the best songs ever performed. For instance, when the hammond organ comes in at 2.17....its enough to make your heart almost burst with emotion........well, at least to me anyways !
One of his very best. A beautiful love song. Almost too beautiful, scary.
Something about this song makes me keep coming back to play it. Its real chill and the lyrics with Dylan is really 😎. In my opinion that soundtrack gods and generals is only worth getting for this 🎶 😆
only Dylan could have done this... the way it should be done... i applaud the folks that made that decision,,,, and of course Bob for doing it.
Oh, so beautiful. And still in the future, twenty years ahead, Bob Dylan and his band.
This one moves me everytime I hear it. So well written, and so well performed.
Such a beautiful orchestral part.
All must yield to the avenging God.
His Bobness sure looks creepy - but his song is simply magnificent

Thomas Snapp It probably was the length.
john welsh here. that movie will never happen. sadly the story is too tough to film
@@petemcphillips502 the first one was already 8hrs long and had to cut it down so people would go and see it. That I do know I know alot of reenactors who was part of the film and said even though it was a trilogy the last one would never happen.
Absolutely Awesome!
A great song. I love the movie, it made me cry. It is an amazing movie and it touch my heart a lot. The movie truly show how horrible a war can be.
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was an extra in this movie, great soundtrack.
One of my favorites
Great song although this is a shortened version, the full song is epic!
this is one of my favorite movies and one of the few dylan ong's i like.
I really wanted to see the final of these epic and grand masterpieces of film. I still hope that they make the film "The Last Measure".
The way things are in America it will never ever happen, plus the most of the actors who was in that film are either dead or in their 60/70s now. Most of the extras was reenactors I cant see many wanting to get in their uniforms at the moment.
Well done
I absolutely love this song people hate this movie well I won't get into that this song is amazing
i wish i could find the full version on youtube
A superb book, a real good movie and a wonderful song from Bob. Two big thumbs up!
Юг---это красивая сказка,которая никогда не закончится....Дж.Дэвис.!!!!
Great video. One of the better Dylan ones.
This movie was amazing.
afther all that gave there lives to end the madness it still alive
Love des lied
muy buenaaaaa
I like then they show the three main actors: (Jeff Daniels, Robert Duvall and Stephen Lang) at 2:45!!!.
Beautiful song about the American tragedy that is the civil war
Shake his hand when you get there. In fact, you'll be so damned busy shaking familiar hands that you will hardly notice the heat.
truth has no place for judgement

Having not seen the film, and not being an expert on the history of the Civil War, I had imagined someone shot deliberately by his own men - fragged - as happened on occasion in Vietnam, when soldiers refused to obey suicidal orders.
I wish I could understand what Bob Dylan is saying 😂
In what way someone on here has wrote the words down!
more Dylan genius
Always fun to watch Dylan as the "Yiddish sutler." (U.S. Grant banned all Jews from the State of Mississippi following the fall of Vicksburg, largely due to his distaste for the sutlers.)
I wish this was the full version. The full version is about 8 and a half minutes.
ua-cam.com/video/93Dj3dErm1g/v-deo.html
Who was the man pictured at the end? Bob Dylan's ancestor?
Where is the line about them killing their own general, Stonewall Jackson? Was that cut out? Or did I miss it?
"They're " doing."...it "
its january 16 2017... curtain raising maybe on the new american civil war. god bless america and blind willie mctell. may he bring sense to your country people.
I could never get over the fact that Martin Sheen wasn't General Lee...
He did play a good Lee. I think if this film had had more support, he probably would've returned.
Jason S dude... Sheen did do a pretty good job playing Lee.... But Robert Duvall... Probably played the best Lee in movie history. Duvall is in a whole other league as an actor from Martin sheen.
Said far better than I could.
I really like this. It would be better if Bob Dylan looked less creepy, but it's still good.
amazingly beautiful no what what he does! Never creepy ! I finally found the matching video to a photo I treasure, xoxoxoxoxoxo Bob Dylan can ride a horse! And oh, what a beauty!

Mmm
A perfect example of what Iron Eyes Cody wept over in the '70s........one piece of trash can ruin an otherwise pristine vista.
I remember that commercial.
Pity they never got to make their third and final film.
the last full measure is mot being made because some one did some shady crap and fucked it up
Our second attempt to have freedom from an oppressive government practicing tyranny. The first was the Revolutionary War against the tyranny of England. The second was the South's attempt to be free from the tyranny of the North.
afther all that gave there lives madness still leaks
Sounds similar to its a wonderful world?
I wondered why there is photos of a him looking like a down and out - a film actor.
its about the now ,fools crossed over from the other side,
This isn't the full song.
Wonderful video. The Confederacy was a noble cause for state's rights.
Wonderful song, one of Dylan's best and most heartfelt compositions. I'm sorry we don't hear the long version here. I'd like to know who was the commander shot down by his own men.

how many Southern Bebels
fell in defense of there country
Around 500,000 over 600,000 Union soldiers were killed. Many scholars believe that around 1 million lives were lost during the civil war.
This movie was eh, buy the soundtrack was superb.
he looks like john lennon
Some of the comments on this video are fuckin WEIRD.
Example:
"Shake his hand when you get there. In fact, you'll be so damned busy shaking familiar hands that you will hardly notice the heat."
Like, in desert heaven.....? Whose hand? Jesus' hand?
if you searching for shelter in the storm and you have the choice of two houses one is a christian's house and one a atheist's house
which would you chose?
me i go to the atheist's house
much saver and the chances are grrat that i can smoke in there

Some christians are good folk, regardless of belief. It is not right or moral to blame the entirety for the faults of a few.
It’s sad what’s happening in the world today. So much ignorance
If God is truly the way you believe him to be, then perhaps Hell is the better place to be. If God is truly the way you believe him to be, then Justice and Morality is merely an unattainable dream.

Don't bring their civil conflict to our country !!!
Just looks silly
+man gough ohhh it's beautiful, bit funny with straight hair on Bob Dylan, he wears wigs sometimes, why not lol
Mani Goug no man you sound silly ❕😎🐇
This movie was fucking terrible.
+Norwegian Royalist as a history buff, I enjoyed what it presented in that regard.
+hostis yea, the movie set and landscapes as well as Bob Dylan and his band- that was more interesting than the movie.
I thought it was good.
I was waiting for the song, but it never played, I never heard the particular song. I liked how they used the movie set for a music video, just a great idea, and the movie was well.
Russell Crowe was supposed to play Jackson, with Lang keeping his Pickett role. Crowe's wife was pregnant and he didn't want to leave Australia.
