  • I remember when my older brother and sister started listening to Bob Dylan and I couldn't for my life understand why!
    I experienced the melodies as scattered and chaotic, and the voice, I guess it didn't really help at the time..
    It took some years and I really had to ease my way into the American folk scene, but when I got in, I was stuck.
    Enjoy!❤

    One of my favorite Dylan lines is “beauty walks a razor’s edge, one day I’ll make it mine.” You made it yours. Just beautiful.

    I've been wondering how this song might be properly covered with a single acoustic guitar, i.e. without the delay, echo and reverb of the electric guitar on the original. You just answered my question. That was very, very good. Well done Sir!!

    Shadows are fallin' and I've been here all day
    It's too hot to sleep and time is runnin' away
    I feel like my soul has turned into steel
    I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
    There's not even room enough to be anywhere
    It's not dark yet, but it's gettin' there
    Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
    Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
    She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
    She put down in writin' what was in her mind
    I just don't see why I should even care
    It's not dark yet, but it's gettin' there
    Well, I've been to London and I been to gay Paris
    I've followed the river and I got to the sea
    I've been down on the bottom of the world full of lies
    I ain't lookin' for nothin' in anyone's eyes
    Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
    It's not dark yet, but it's gettin' there
    I was born here and I'll die here against my will
    I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
    Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
    I can't even remember what it was, I came here to get away from
    Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
    It's not dark yet, but it's gettin' there

    Rasmus, you've got this! I just listened to all your videos, and with great anticipation decided to subscribe. I have a mantra for the covers I perform 1) Do them justice 2) Add your own unique spin 3) And finally, just maybe someday you might render the song more profound than the original. You have definitely accomplished this with some of your chosen covers. Love it when you give us more of your eyes in certain parts of the song. Can't wait to hear more originals in the future. And I would love to hear you cover certain Mandolin Orange/Watchhouse songs and some by Travis Meadows - carry on! RDL

This is one cover version I actually enjoyed as much as the original. For a Dylan song that says a lot.
