If you can’t romance a girl who’s outta your league with this music, there’s something seriously wrong with your situation.

Blasphemy! I like Van Morrison, but Bob Dylan was...is my god. And you're probably right...the rhythm, the energy, the spin, the guitar, were on point in this. But nobody can sing a Dylan song like Dylan, no one can replicate the pain, those emotions, other than Bob Dylan himself...I mean, those were his stories, his experiences; and he could write many good songs that many good artists could cover, but only he knows how they're really played. And to be honest, I just don't break like a little girl listening to this.
I saw both live, Van was amazing, Dylan was experimenting with doing his classics in a new way. The Pogues opened for him, he was eclipsed by another Irishman, Shane MacGowan, who ranks right there with these two titans. God bless them all!
Van Morrison has been in my life since the early 1970's. His music and voice are like a heart and brain massage at the side of a babbling brook on a warm sunny day, with not a care in the world.
A great analogy of how his music feels! Hes been my favorite since the 1970. And he never stops growing and creating! Both brilliant and humble, a very rare and unique combination💚
Hello Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️ Please send me a mail via. Vmorrison757@gmail.com
There will never, ever be another Van Morrison, the Belfast Lion ..or Bob Dylan, who's brilliance changed all our lives!!! I'm so happy I lived in their time!!!!!!!!
I moved to Berkeley in 1973, began listening to KSAN, as we all did. Flipped out when I heard this played for the 1st time. I found a bootleg LP of this 'house concert' broadcast live by KSAN in 1971. Willie and I were in front of the stage at Winterland when Van performed another fabulous version of this song, 2/2/74. It was captured on video by Bill Graham's in-house recording, is available on Wolfgang Vault. I recommend that folks check that out. Grade A, to the A+ of this version, according to me.
I got introduced to Van by a friend. He had just heard a new release & heard 'Into The Mystic' blow him away. He then prompting blew me away with it as well. To this day, I remember that moment.
Best version of this song I have ever heard Haunting. I've been listening to it for 10 years. Heard it on radio one morning going fishing driving 4 am. Stuck with me ever since.
Genius for sure, a legend, you can easily ignore van if you were unaware of his talent and just go about your day, however if you listen to him for a while, you can feel he lives deep down inside your soul. He stirs your spirit andcreates great harmony. A man I would truly love to meet.
He is no fucking genius. Stop throwing that word around. There is no such thing as genius. Everyone practices to get good at something and VM is no different.
@JP McCray Is it possible for a non-"genius" to determine who is and isn't a "genius"? Let's be clear about the lack of critical faculties: that you LIKE or "LOVE" a thing DOES NOT mean that the thing is "genius" -- such declarations are SELF-flattery. And he ruins this by going with the "gay" fantasy put on it by morons. "Queen Mary" was more likely a drug than a person.
Blood on The Tracks was 1975, followed by an amazing number 1 best selling Album Desire, Slow Train Coming (1979)was amazing, the production, the passion in the lyrics (I even like street legal from 1978) in 1981 Shot of Love had some amazing songs, like Every Grain of Sand, then Infidels (1984) with Jokerman and the outtake Blind Willie McTell, i like alot of the other 80s tunes too but in 1989 Oh Mercy was released and that was amazing, masterpiece man. Time out of Mind (1997) was mind blowing and has this whole different feel to it, then Love and Theft (2001) is one of my favourite Dylan albums, has this gangster Martin Scorsese movie vibe to it, and then followed by modern times and together through life which are so so good especially Modern Times, all of the previously mentioned albums were so well received with fans and critics, and then Tempest in 2012 which has to be the darkest album Dylan has every done and it is mind blowing, and his recent crooning albums of American Standards, the musicianship and Dylans vocals are so so clean, although I do like the more course voice he has recently aswell man. I went to see him for my 17th Birthday in May this year, and got to the front and spent the night having the best time singing at the top of my lungs, to songs old and new man, gotta open your mind to his other stuff abit more man, Dylan has a lot of 'decent' or far more than decent stuff after 1975
Van the man..I would love too fly from the usa too his country of Ireland and listen too all his songs driving around country,it would be the best travel guide ever
@@Debrenta ok..well, queen of the slipstream is amazing! then u have cypress avenue,astral weeks,bulbs,cul de sac..there's just so many its like the rolling stones on and on..
@@adellzachary3171 Who the hell are you? Good evening judge? And good f****** bye, hey, go take your drugs you're deranged, David, stand up and say something, you know this man has no taste, I wonder what groups or singers he really likes?
@@johnpayne6860 what is there to say To fools like this John? Van Morrison has Written countless songs that were covered by Seriously respected Artists ( guess they suck too?) He is in the R&R HOF, still selling shows out what 50yrs after He started? You want to say you don't like his version? the guy can say that, he's not a fan? Sure, that's acceptable, people have covered it better? Or He likes Dylans original better? Fine, but to say an Artist sucks? Why bother even arguing with the clown.
Van is absoluut top here. Dylan is the only artiest who stand in my opinion above Van. But in this Dylan song is this version of Van my favorite. So much emotion and expression added 🧡Fantastic
Alan ---Don't think you can appreciate. Van the man as much as I can. He is 1 of a kind. EVERYTHING he did &does is so good. People have to have a certain ear to hear & soul to feel what he says. I believe that he is in tune with the universe !!!How can 1 man have so much to give ?Since I was 13 he has made me feel, think,enjoy & I pray I'll see him in concert 1 day. That would blow me away.
Just read your comment after I posred mine and must say we have the same admiration. I too was 13 and only play him on special times. He is in tune, a great point to make. A loyal old dog and a voice than can rip your heart open
You're his biggest fan ? And you haven't seen him in concert ? One of those statements is not true. Unless you have no arms and legs, and are confined to an oxygen tent and were struck down with blindness in your teens, whilst living on an atoll in the mid pacific ocean.
God's child labor of Love Van's biggest fan God bless the Irish. You can't be a bigger fan than me. I remember hearing Gloria at 12 it was just released, been hooked from then on.
Perfect ..Bob would be proud ..and I love when they have sang together ..there is a thread with these two writers and singers ...they bring joy and the deeper meaning .
The song is a gem and Hendrix an excellent guitar player but his cover grossly over-rated by commercialization of his death - unless you are only rating by the guitar play... . Bettered by many since, including Bob himself (Budokan) and Neil Young. Van's cover of JLW is unequalled, although a few others are remarkable: Sophie Hunger's Dirge (amazing), Alan Price's To Ramona, Raitt's Baby Blue and Sandy Denny's Heaven's Door and I'll Keep it With mine are close by Van's masterly cover. Not just great guitar: Great interpretation throughout.
She is amazing. I remember her cover of Brel's "Ne me quitte pas" unequalled to date. But - by one hair - I prefer Van's JLW... and now the very innovative "Dirge" by Sophie Hunger... Such a difficult choice.!!!!
It's that deep soulful voice of van. It's the same with its all over now baby blue by, Them. It's two geniuses colliding. I don't need a religion. Music like this is my faith. It's helped me through rough times.
One Irish Rover is a doc on Van where he sings 2 songs with Bob at the Greek ruins on acoustic. One of the best music docs ever. Best version of One Irish Rover.
Not a fan of Dylan covers but WOW! !! This is spectacular... Feeling pretty broken today, lucky for me, wouldn't have listened to this one on another day. Fair play to you Van Morrison, pity you aren't around to bless the world with more of your brilliance.
Patricia Crawford our boy is alive and kicking....giving regular gigs in the Culloden Hotel outside Holywood ( with one L as it is in N Ireland...his home) in little dinner shows to paying guests. Still got it!
I can`t begin think how empty my life would be without these great music people around for past 58 years. The world would most definately be a much lesser place for sure.
@@jnagarya519 I think it’s not so much recognizing genius as it is knowing when you’ve discovered something that’s far beyond all else you’ve experienced in a particular realm. Call it what you want.
It was raining from the first and I was dying of thirst so I came in here but your long time curse hurts but what is worse is this pain in here ain't it clear that I can't stay in here . Bob Dylan was a great poet, he knows it. I hope I didn't blow it for my friend Bob.
Love the song and never heard this version, funny, I was just singing, it tonight to myself thinking, about Bob Dylan 78th birthday and one of my favorites, but I have to say, thanks to God I found this cover, Van Morrison I love you too, man love and respect!
There's only one version that comes close to the creator, not the imitator of this song, and its Jimi Hendrix. Dylan created this song, others imitated what Dylan's mind created. Yes, van's version is exceptional, Hendrix's version is special, but it cannot ever be denied Dylan is the creator, and innovator, without Dylan the two impersonators would have no song to sing. We wouldn't be having this conversation. Period.
every time I listen to this (which is often!) I'm struck at hearing his voice at the beginning -- his accent is so strong then. It really 'mellowed' over the years. Yeah, I know, I know, he lived in Calif for years. Still.
Willie Finn don't forget Eric Burden! His version of Bob's song it all over now baby blue is nothing short of spectacular. His collection of blues songs speaks for itself also! No disrespect to Van at all! I'd just put Eric ahead of him personally...
Was Burden not more Rock than Blues?? Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison didn't emulate Burden.... People still still to this day mistake early Van Morrison for Jagger. Plus he played guitar, harmonica, keyboards and saxophone to session music standard.
Saw Van at a little folk club in San Francisco in like '71. Many of the songs from the Moondance album. And then again at the Keystone Corners in SF - a jazz bar that seated some 50 people. Knew a friend of his who sang on Tupelo Honey. This guy must hardly sleep to produce so much music!

Could never repay ya, Van… thank you SOOOO much !!!!
This is the best version of this song I’ve ever heard. His rhythm and energy as a vocalist is simply unmatched. What phrasing.
Agree. Staggeringly sweet, cheeky and yes that phrasing. And as for that ending
jeff buckley does a stunning live version which i think pips this one, theres a moment in it that defies words.
@@HuxleyWasRight I love Jeff Buckley but he does not play in the same league...

Richie Havens
I saw both live, Van was amazing, Dylan was experimenting with doing his classics in a new way. The Pogues opened for him, he was eclipsed by another Irishman, Shane MacGowan, who ranks right there with these two titans. God bless them all!
A legend covering a legend, beautiful
Van Morrison has been in my life since the early 1970's. His music and voice are like a heart and brain massage at the side of a babbling brook on a warm sunny day, with not a care in the world.
Ah man wicked
A great analogy of how his music feels! Hes been my favorite since the 1970. And he never stops growing and creating! Both brilliant and humble, a very rare and unique combination💚
That's a very hard geas, to put on anyone. He's good, that's all that matters.
Well put! he is my total religion
well said
I just played this gem over and over, again.... Why have I not heard this before now? Amazing as always, Van!
You never know where Van's going, but if you trust him, it's always a special trip.
Hello Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️

I love this expression about him. It’s perfect. He’s the quicksand and you resolve to drown in his voice.
🎯
There will never, ever be another Van Morrison, the Belfast Lion ..or Bob Dylan, who's brilliance changed all our lives!!! I'm so happy I lived in their time!!!!!!!!
There will never ever be another of anyone.
...and they are still both vital!
And there will never be another you. Or me. Or anyone else. So?
And still living and enjoying i hope!

If I didn't know Dylan wrote this, I would believe Van did. He sings it like it is his.
A TRULY A SOVEREIGN RENDERING OF THIS CLASSIC LOVE ❤️ SONG!
The thing about discovering Van Morrison is that you never want to listen to anyone else!
So so true
Alfiehan i guess we only want the best ,,,Van the man is utter joy ,olso hes a complete genius lol xx
Heck yeah ( my brown eyed girl) I have to 2 of them💝💝 Van Is A Bad MOFO' 🎤Class Of His Own🌹🎤🎤🎵🎼🎸😄😎✌😘🎶Love Him😍
So true I love him
It's not just me then
Best version I've ever heard of this song. Van the Man.
❤🎉
This is an amazing version of this song. The good ones always give me goosebumps..Van did it again
Fact
Never heard this before, but glad I did, Van does his version of this beautiful song justice, a wonderful. song.
Agree that he "does justice" to this song
You can really hear how much Van loves this song.. An unbelievable good version of an unbelievable great song.
Love this...thanks for share.
Great comment VL i totaly agree

SOOOO awesome! Great phrasing. Dylan must love it!
great song, great composition....

Simply the best ever! Life is better with Van Morrisons voice.

well im 27 but i always felt that i got this old taste of music i mean van its soulful and genuine that makes me happy evryday
Great version. Van adds his distinct swing and soul to what is a classic song and takes it to a whole other level.
Just a one of a kind voice-no one ever sounded like him ever-he's one in a million! Love him! Thanks!
It's fabulous. Once you listen to Van you just get addicted. Great musician. The greatest of our times and all the times.
Ohhhh my i adore Van Morrison ♥️ forever and a day i have loved him ❤❤❤
Superb phrasing of the lyrics.
In a very beautiful and special moment of my life I’m crying of joy while listening to this rendition of a stunning music poem.
I don't think we're alone.
No, Definitely not alone.
The previous comment is SO TRUE. Not only do I listen to him exclusively, but I talk about him and his music ALL THE TIME!
So different, so unique, so heart-felt, so à la VAN!
One of my favorites, but Van's rendition is new to me. God bless you Scott for passing this on.
Although we are talking about Van Morrison, I would have never ever expected this version was so amazing. Chapeau.
Two artistes. Two of the greatest!
WOW
He just made this sound like a completely different song. Beautiful lyrics and beautiful Van making it his own.
Genius for sure, a legend, you can easily ignore van if you were unaware of his talent and just go about your day, however if you listen to him for a while, you can feel he lives deep down inside your soul. He stirs your spirit andcreates great harmony. A man I would truly love to meet.

So personal ~ Van Morrison's own passionate expression in a language we seek and love.
This is so freaking good it hurts! Live on Van the Man! I love your musical talent and I always will. Amazing cover! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
At the peak of his vocal greatness.
Yup, but to this day he can still do it, which is amazing. When you have soul it doesn't go away.
I saw Van last night in Berlin, what a great pleasure. He is one of the best!
What a twosome Bob Dylan and Van Morrison. Two musical and poetry geniuses and both loners.
alan murr :Sorry mister Van Morrison is a voice not the poet??.Bob Dylan is the best genius poet of the world!
I do not agree. Van Morrison' is a great poet and songwriter
Cactus J. Shame he hasn't done anything decent since early 70s blood on the tracks.

One of the best renditions. Can't believe I've got to 64 and just sussed this.

Nearly 66 same here
Excellent version - Van the Man.
His music always moves me. True soul in every track
I saw Van in 1972! He was mesmerizing.
He's my favorite artist ever.
I saw him in Clearwater, Florida 2016, the man just KEEPS getting better AND sexier!
I saw him in '74 or '75. Left virtually hypnotized and the most peaceful I've ever been.
Amazing, Van Morrison! 🤩😍😘
I LOVE this version. Van is up there with Dylan, and I love his phrasing.....
This song is one of my all-time favourites. Well done!
I love them both- both genius songwriters. I can't imagine not having their songs in my life.
I can't imagine how a non-"genius" could recognize "genius" in anyone. Except, of course, to flatter one's own tastes.

You can tell this is young Van. I love young and older. Different but still really good!
I would love it if he did this song again. A newer version. He does so well in this song.
He did, but this is perfection.
Nobody stretches songs like Van Morrison.
great description! Stretching a song.........
I loooove VAn Morrison but i must differ with all respect there is one who can "strech it" even more than Van
and that was Ray Charles
Brian Dorn Agree. He once gave a three song concert that lasted an hour and a half and everyone left exhausted.
I like it with Dylan. I love it with Manfred Mann. I´ve got no words for it with Van Morrison!
Joe Cocker too.
It was raining from the first and I was dying of thirst so I came in here but your long time curse hurts but what is worse is this pain in here ain't it clear that I can't stay in here . Bob Dylan was a great poet, he knows it. I hope I didn't blow it for my friend Bob.
there are no more people like Van Morrison
Awe
Very fine and exciting interpretated version of a very great song ... Thank you so much for sharing it!
the business...go for it Vannnnn, forr Bobbbbb
Laughed out loud when he said, "I was so weird and you were weird too." Great.
Ain't that the truth with all women?
I meant that to you Michael S Moore, LOL!
That's Van!!!!
Oh God I'm cryng with this song 😭😭😭😭
Love the song and never heard this version, funny, I was just singing, it tonight to myself thinking, about Bob Dylan 78th birthday and one of my favorites, but I have to say, thanks to God I found this cover, Van Morrison I love you too, man love and respect!
Wow! This is so smooth... awesome cover... Thanks for sharing!
This is stunning. I have never heard this before in all my years of Vanism and Dylanism. I am stoked, its better than Bob's I reckon
Xer Yarrum Ha! "vanism and dylanism"
Xer Yarrum and yes it's AMAZING
true dat
Love them both but Van is streets ahead.
There's only one version that comes close to the creator, not the imitator of this song, and its Jimi Hendrix. Dylan created this song, others imitated what Dylan's mind created. Yes, van's version is exceptional, Hendrix's version is special, but it cannot ever be denied Dylan is the creator, and innovator, without Dylan the two impersonators would have no song to sing. We wouldn't be having this conversation. Period.
every time I listen to this (which is often!) I'm struck at hearing his voice at the beginning -- his accent is so strong then. It really 'mellowed' over the years. Yeah, I know, I know, he lived in Calif for years. Still.
van morrison has the greatest white blues voice. no body like him.
Blue-eyed soul
Willie Finn don't forget Eric Burden! His version of Bob's song it all over now baby blue is nothing short of spectacular. His collection of blues songs speaks for itself also! No disrespect to Van at all! I'd just put Eric ahead of him personally...
@@ryanruble5748 Burdon.
Was Burden not more Rock than Blues?? Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison didn't emulate Burden.... People still still to this day mistake early Van Morrison for Jagger. Plus he played guitar, harmonica, keyboards and saxophone to session music standard.
Nobody is like anybody else.
A beautiful tip of the cap from one amazing songwriter to another!

Wow
Heard other’s renditions but had yet to hear Van’s. Love love love 💗Thank you very much for this put here! You rock
Oh I love Van Morrison💚 just the sweetest song everX
That was brilliant The Irish blues man Van it kind of distills What you thought was Cool. And i believe you are one of the best.
Don't think his DUP pals would call him Irish :(
Saw Van at a little folk club in San Francisco in like '71. Many of the songs from the Moondance album. And then again at the Keystone Corners in SF - a jazz bar that seated some 50 people. Knew a friend of his who sang on Tupelo Honey. This guy must hardly sleep to produce so much music!
