    Absolutely stunning - what a beautiful voice ! Love all of Bob’s stuff but Oh Mercy is my favorite release - this was so nice to listen to 👍

    No pressure Louise..... Singing in front of Bobby himself. Lovely rendition though. Thanks for sharing.

    Polar Music Prize, These lyrics were placed as a 'your welcome' for my daughter to see when i sent her the link to this performance. She had texted earlier the following...
    ''Thank you AGAIN for helping me with my car and the transmission fluid! It took a lot of stress off my day. I love and apreciate you so much Dad!
    "What Good Am I ?"
    What good am I some like all the rest
    If I just turn away when I see how you're dressed
    If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry
    What good am I ?
    What good am I if I know and don't do
    If I see and don't say if I look right through you
    If I turn a deaf ear to the thunderin' sky
    What good am I ?
    What good am I while you softly weep
    And I hear in my head what you say in your sleep
    And I freeze in the moment like the rest who don't try
    What good am I ?
    What good am I then to others and me
    If I had every chance and yet still fail to see
    If my hands are tied must I not wonder within
    Who tied them and why and where must I have been.
    What good am I if I say foolish things
    And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings
    And I just turn my back while you silently die
    What good am I ?

    Really beautiful version. Bob has that pissed off look down to a tea! I'm sure it's nothing personal Louise and he did enjoy it

    Comment #2: This rivals "All Along the Watchtower" as covers go. Nailed it!

    Dylan looks less than impressed but I think it's better than the original in this instance. Great cover.

    They did such a beautiful job with this song. Unfortunately, mr lack of personality or mr lack of graciousness barely showed appreciation for their efforts.

      It's reactions like yours that Made Bob write the line, "they mistake Your shyness for aloofness, your silence for snobbery"

    He treats women terribly. Read up on how awful he was to Emmy Lou Harris when they recorded "Desire"..

      Then he needs forgiveness as much as any of us.

      Could not find a thing on “how awful he was” to her. Are you referring to only doing one-takes as he normally does?
