    The name is kind of an inside joke. The Band was Bob Dylan's backing band in the mid-60s so the name came about simply because people just referred to them as the band when they were backing Dylan.

    "I wish it never ended". This is a short version. Check out the studio version. Love the lyrics!
    It makes no difference where I turn
    I can't get over you and the flame still burns
    It makes no difference, night or day
    The shadow never seems to fade away
    And the sun don't shine anymore
    And the rains fall down on my door
    Now there's no love
    As true as the love
    That dies untold
    But the clouds never hung so low before
    It makes no difference how far I go
    Like a scar, the hurt will always show
    And it makes no difference who I meet
    They're just a face in the crowd on a dead-end street
    And the sun don't shine anymore
    And the rains fall down on my door
    These old love letters
    Well, I just can't keep
    Just like the gambler says:
    "Read 'em and weep"
    And the dawn don't rescue me no more
    You might also like
    Lie To Girls

    Without your love, I'm nothing at all
    Like an empty hall, it's a lonely fall
    Since you've gone it's a losing battle
    Stampeding cattle, they rattle the walls
    And the sun don't shine anymore
    And the rains fall down on my door
    Well, I love you so much
    That it's all that I can do
    Just to keep myself from telling you
    That I never felt so alone before

    Robbie said of this song "time is supposed to heal all wounds, except sometimes it doesn't, this is one of those times". He also wrote it with Rick in mind, felt Rick could sing it without it coming off as self pity, which he did not want. Of course. Robbie was right.

  • @hannejeppesen1809
    @hannejeppesen1809 7 днів тому

    The reason they chose the name The Band, is because they started out as Bob Dylan's back up band. They all live in small town up state New York, Woodstock, and whenever they were out on the town alone or in a group, people would say, "he is with the band", or "that is the guys from the band". So when they went out on their own and had to come up with a name, they talked about different name, I think Richard suggested The Band, and Rick said "that is what everyone is calling us, I don't even want to think about another name". So they became The Band. I'm a huge fan, and they certainly lived up to that name. I have listened to their music since the Brown album came out in the late sixties.

    I'll probably get some push-back from this statement, but The Band is--arguably--the greatest (North) American band. (I say "North" American because all but one of the members were originally from Canada). Their rustic, Americana sound was unique and influential, and still sounds so authentic today. Rick Danko's plaintive vocals were perfectly suited to convey the heartbreak in this song. I'm so glad you two love this very special band.

    Lots of great moments in this film. Think my favorite songs from it are their cover of Marvin Gaye's song "Dont Do It". I love when Rick and Levon sing in harmony. And of course "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" is a masterpiece. How a Canadian can capture the hopeless sentiment of the post Civi War south is amazing to me. I know he had Helm there to help, but still

    I heard this when I was apart from my love for too long and it broke me. The line, 'The dawn don't rescue me no more' really hits me, too. When I was in depressive episodes, I usually had momentary reprieves from the depths in the morning. I knew I was deep into the black when even the morning didn't 'rescue' me.

    They were called "The Band" because they were the backup musicians for Bob Dylan he just called them "the band." They toured with him when he was being booed for adding electric guitars, drums and a bass to his songs when his followers wanted him to keep his earlier persona with only an acoustic guitar. They had to put up with booing every night and kept going, eventually writing their own songs and putting their own spin on things. You really need to see The Last Waltz to get a better understanding of how they were revered by other musicians at the time. Neil Young says that it is an honor to be on the stage with them and you can see the warm feelings that all the other musicians share with them. There was also a book about the Band that was excellent.

    Your description of The Band is interesting. I read Robbie's book, and it is clear that they didn't want to be typically sixties rock and roll stars. At The Last Waltz, both Rick and Robbie don't have a beard, but if you look at picture of them from the late sixties and early seventies, they looked much different. Still good looking, but I like how the look here, both so handsome and so much charisma.
