I saw her about 10 years ago in Durham NC, where I was sitting on the 3rd row. She was fantastic, but she didn't do this song for the entire regular concert. On her first encore, she still didn't sing it so I stood and called for "Diamonds and Rust".....Her second encore ended the same way, and on her third encore, she looked and pointed at me and said "this is for you". :) I still get goose bumps thinking about this.
What a cool story. :)
@@seansmith1303 Thanks. I'll always remember that.
How lucky you are...
amazing
Since she wrote it for Bob Dylan she probably did not want to sing it. It was over.
This is probably the most raw, the most honest and bare-naked Love Song ever written or recorded.
Yes, it is. That is why there are so few covers of the masterpiece. It should be vetoed for covering.
Brevity is the sister of talent.
@@v24231 The ripper's cover of this is as good as it gets (with judas priest).
Her song is sublime!
It's raw, I can feel it and relate , that love is once in a lifetime 🌹💗🌹
The lady can write. And the lady can sing. After we are gone, she'll still be around. Haunting the world. Making the universe cry.
It doesn't need any help for that.
this! And beautifully expressed.

My hope is that future Generations understand and love her Music 🎼 like our Generation still does 🙏🫶🎸
This is one of the most poignant and poetic songs. I love the juxtaposition of quoting him telling her that her poetry wasn’t good while she is weaving one of the most beautiful love songs, both in poetry and melody. To me, this is just one of those pieces of magic that the world blesses us with sometimes. Thank you, Joan.
Seems to have come from the heart for sure, occasionally hearing this song brings tears to my eyes
It was too good for him! She was too good for him too :-)
I love this song,but I always think 'he's not worth it, Joan'
Yes. 🙏
I think it tells us that Dylan was either a terrible judge of poetry or highly threatened by her, or both 🤣
Here we are, nearly a half-century after this song was first played and it continues to move people. Joan Baez recorded a masterpiece
exactly. I think it's the story behind the song in combination to her voice and her sad eyes that touch ppl.
A true masterpiece.
A true masterpiece.
@BOGUS Blank yeah, that b i t c h!!
@@alexioscorfu8658 ???????
Joan Baez was not writing poetry; she was writing love. By this, she will be immortalized.
GOOD FOR YOU !! EXACTLLY !!!! you got IT!!!!
I feel bad for what poetry is.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@attilaevil Joan baez forever
@@zeyadalabdaly3393 You are wrong.She wrote it.
In 1963, we had a substitute teacher who was young and talked to us about cool things, that sounded so cutting edge then. Even 59 years later, I remember a singer he mentioned that he thought that class of sixth graders should know about--her name was Joan Baez. It didn't register much with me at age 10, but did a few years later and to this day...If you were that teacher and somehow see this, thank you.
Let me add it was Garvey Elementary School in Chicago.
Did you go there?
Ultra-cool teacher! If only they were all like that!
It was me. I was the teacher.
This is how you get followers by sliding into heartfelt comments with your bs?@@mak_xx9456
Well, I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you happened to call
And here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the Midwest
Ten years ago I bought you some cuff links
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes, the girl on the half-shell
Could keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing
With brown leaves falling all around
And snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel
Over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there
Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
'Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes, I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid
Awesome lyric ❤️
Awesome lyrics.. they ring 👍true
" Yes, i loved you dearly " thats hit me ...xoxoxoxoxoxo
She loved him dearly. You can see it on her in all pictures. She must have suffered a lot. Love hurts.
Magnifique chanson, les paroles, les arrangements musicaux, Une voix qui vous emporte. Nostalgie d’une époque ! ...
One of the most beautiful and haunting love songs ever written.
Cuanta razón.
Brenda i just read your post on diamonds and rust after i had post to it as well.
Thank you. After listening to it i described it as a haunting love song that brought back memories that i had never forgotten or did not want to forget.
And as i sat here trying to figure out which one it was and reading your post i realized this song must do the same to others that it has done to me. Like looking in to a mirror and see a reflection of parts of your life that you charish the most i guess would be a good way to say it.
I agree Greg…there’s something in this song that touches me and is impactful.
@@brenda9990 joan was better off having a one night stand with john lennon. i love bob...but he's strange.
You took the words right out of my mouth. Beauty and haunting. “Hauntingly sad.”
God it hurts to love someone who doesn't love you back. Jesus. This song.
My theory is that Bob loved Joan so much he let her go knowing he couldn't wouldn't treat her the way she deserved
You said it. And......you never really forget, no matter how much time passes.
I think I read somewhere that Joan wanted Bob to keep creating more protesting music & be more of a activist in his music but Bob wanted to change and move foreword, she didn't. She was living in the past & Bob was trying to move forward so they broke up. He began to fall in love with other women who wanted more of what he was changing into. They where becoming two different people & bob knew other women who where more in his lifestyle type.
@@cjackson6482 , Somewhat accurate. Baez has admitted she was trying to "mold" Bob into what she wanted him to be. Thus pushing him away. Bob said he broke it off because he didn't want her caught up in the madness. The comment about Joan "living in the past" is bewildering???
As far as other women that was happening when they were together. As a matter of fact even before. Bob wouldn't give Joan the time of day when the 1st met because he was interested in her 16 year old sister who was allegedly even more beautiful. Dylan was a scoundrel...
@@cjackson6482 Thanks for the insight.
Am I the only one who prefers listening Joan Baez to Bob Dylan?
I suspect there was someone who preferred listening to Bob Dylan - I think her name was Mrs Zimmerman. 😄
Yes, I hope so…
“Speaking strictly for me, we both could have died then and there…”
What a perfect line about the overwhelming sublime feeling of pure love.
Amazing song. Still powerful after all these years.❤️
There is such bitterness there . Beautiful song about love not returned . I love that people are still listening to it and have something to say
There is several words of brilliance, in this song, as Paddington Brown says this is not poetry it is pure unadulterated LOVE she is singing a massive deep love song , to Bob and when she sings certain lines and her voice and how she drops down to lower notes I am emotionally knocked out, always brings tears with its magnificent unbelievable emotion , I love music amd a million songs , but some do something to you, that hit a deep spot. And these peope with the genius to write the words and music amaze me, especially about someone we think we know.
Now another song that I would call a massive love song is "Let Her Cry" by Hootie and the Blowfish, not the same song style but the same power of love song , listen to the lyrics, and see what heart wrenching things the singer is telling in this music story.
Last but not least , it is 2023,\.
WHERE HAS THE DEEP QUALITY AND EMOTIONAL UPLIFTING MUSIC GONE???
I appreciate new styles but the feel is dying , the tune is going , there is no structure , songs are like Ads sometimes, so TH-cam thanks for a spot I can get lost in with my earphones.
Words with meaning and put to good music and with feelings from the heart.
And it is an older song and to David Vergari, you sir are spot on the mark, this song really does move people, deeply. Genius in fact.
He was a🐀rat fink🖤
I knew this song from the cover by judas' priest....Well, hard pain, sweet vengeance. I don't think was vengeance what Joan was looking for, but just espressing what her feeling was. Vengeance is just a side effect.
@@robertbairt9094Baez was also trying to control Dylan’s life, dictate what he did and attempting to force him into political activism, she was incredibly domineering and controlling, she had admitted this herself. So if Dylan was a rat fink for dumping her, she was equally a rat fink for not accepting him for who he was.
This one of the best songs ever written. The lyrics and melody, her voice, every single aspect of it makes it perfect!
She loved Dylan but I don't think he was very fond of her as a romantic interest.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 💝 I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💓💕🔈🎶
This song just kills me!
I love it so so so much
I'm 65, & have listened to countless thousands of songs in my life, & I couldn't agree more with you....one of the most beautifully written and sung songs that my ears have been blessed with. Incredibly moving song, imo.
P.S., David Kershenbaum, the procucer, did a phenomenal job on this song. Highly underrated, imho. 👏
Besides being utterly beautiful, "Diamonds and Rust" is among the most haunting, nakedly honest autobiographical songs ever recorded. Most of us have had the experience at one time or another of having an old lover suddenly appear out of nowhere, leaving us feeling, for a time at least, shattered, confused, and conflicted. But no one I can think of has ever captured that experience better than Baez did in this song. It also nails the vibe of New York City on a cold autumn day. This is poetry/songwriting at its very best.
+ericynot A Winter's day in a deep and dark December......... am a rock. I am an island...
Your post was perfect. Wish I had seen it before I posted 'cause makes mine unnecessary.
nah this is specifically about bob dylan and joan baez. it doesnt apply to anyone else.
ericynot,, I can't find the words to thank you for your beautiful, heartfelt, intelligent and lovely post. I was choking back emotion while watching Baez's French TV studio close-up performance of this song in a French studio, then saw this video with lyrics & photos of Baez & Dylan. I had wished for the photos to age along with them & the lyrics, but am grateful for what Dave Bing took the time to do for the rest of us. I was particularly taken with what I assume is Baez' meaning behind the lyric "You say you aren't nostalgic..." Dylan may have won the Nobel but he wouldn't get a Milk of Human Kindness prize. I've personally experienced a lover from my youth refusing to acknowledge the depth & sweetness of our relationship. Anyway ericynot, I hope you are, in fact, a critic. Selfishly I hope you are because your talent should be shared beyond TH-cam music pages. Thank you again.

I was already a fan when I first heard this song, and at the time I was young and knew nothing of it's connection to Bob Dylan (because I was young and there was no Internet, things were 'normal'...this was still my favorite song of hers. The key and chords are almost of another world, it's like nothing I've ever heard and it expresses feelings I also never heard before then. Now I am lucky enough to have TWO copies of this LP, one in stereo and the other in QUAD for the day I have a fine enough phonograph setup to listen to it properly.
I went to an anti war rally in 1970 Los Angeles park to see Joan Baez. 30 minute concert, about 60 people showed up and she sang completely A cappella not even a guitar on a flatbed trailer. Amazing!
This song is an incredible work of art. It deeply speaks to the soul of anyone who has loved and lost
I count myself amongst that number. Ginny Emerson, where the hell are you now?
😂
Yes very true! Songs like this remind us of our disappointments in love while things we can't change, it brings us solace we all go through a heartbreak and disappointment at some point. This and JJ Cale's Someday are two such songs. Thank you Joan for being one of the most wonderful woman musicians and songwriters of the 20th century. The feelings deep down are bearable when we listen to this song, we are not alone and it helps the mind and soul greatly.
Amen! Tis’ better to have loved and lost, then to never have loved at all. Sadly this is true.
Simply tragically timeless
Joan had written a very beautiful poetry instead of lousy,finally I had known this story behind this song just some days ago.
Her poetry is not “lousy” at all. It is stunning and powerful.
yup.
she didn't get a Nobel prize for her poem....
She’s quoting Dylan taking about his own poetry, not hers: “‘My poetry is lousy’, you said.”
Dylan was highly critical of anyone's work that wasn't his own.
I don't know why he tried to diminish her by telling that her poetry is lousy. It isn't at all.
Playing this for my wife. We’ve been inseparable since about this time in 1972. Almost 50 years and one of us has just been diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. It doesn’t matter who: we’re a covalent bond. We’d both prefer to go first.

Small Is Beautiful -We both appreciate it. Nobody is giving up.
@@caseyjoanz bless you both....Godspeed, you two.
I have never posted a reply or made any comment on youtube in 10 years. Never. This is a first for me, but my heart breaks for you both and I had to comment. I am not 'religious', but I believe that when you find your 'soul mate' (as you two so obviously have) you will never be parted - your partner will be waiting for you just beyond the veil and you will spend eternity together. My husband is 17 years my senior and I would do anything to 'go first' and not have to bear the burden of grief. Remember - grief is the price we pay for love. May you both be reunited again one day.....
Wendy Nichols -I write a lot on TH-cam comments, but I’ve never received so much positive response. We started a conversation when my wife was 17, and we still haven’t finished it. Whatever afterlife is, we know we’ll be together.
These days are gone, there is more soul in this one song than ten thousand modern songs
yes, that`s true
@@jurgenweber236 yeah I believe so
so so true ...... modern 'artists in general and especially the young are distracted
by phone noises at the very moment when silence is essential for the creative process to peak or continue
100% agreed.
❤️
This reminds me of a lover i had many years ago, he died about 7 years ago, i still miss him......the unwashed phenominon ,the original vagabond, he burst onto the scene already a legend. You certainly did Tommy, rest well my friend. Il see you on the flip side xx❤❤❤
Who's listening to this beautiful song in this pandemic ??
Me
Not only in the pandemic. Goosepimpels every time
I am Taiwanese, I was 3 when the song released. I learned this song from guitar book from my high school. I am still playing my guitar with her voice over TH-cam today.
Shes great because of mgs5
@@themealdealer8811 Quiet is the only “she” if you want to talking about mgls5. Sorry Joan !
If this isn't the greatest unrequited love song ever - I don't know what is. Simply great!
Could you please tell me what does she mean by "speaking strictly for me"?
@@gauravchhoker6943 Hello Gaurav! Yes, in this context it is another way of saying 'in my opinion' but more personal, poetic and with much more emotion. If she had died she would have felt that her life was complete.... but her words also indicate a little reservation. She isn't sure Bob feels the same way. Hope this helps!
@@jimw.4161 Thanks Jim!! That was really helpful 😊
@@gauravchhoker6943 You're very welcome... Happy to help. I love this song. It brings back so many pleasant memories of the early 60s when folk music was really at its zenith. A wonderful time to be young! Joan captured the feeling perfectly.
@@jimw.4161 This song is just not a song.. it's actually Joan narrating her story that's why it is so good to listen as the sadness in this is so real. For me this is the best and most beautiful autobiographical song ever.
I saw her in Philly and she sang diamonds and rust and I busted it out in tears because I know how much she loves Bob Dylan and wanted to save him from himself she would have given him h her whole life😢 diamonds and rust is beautiful, but I can't listen to it without crying, it reminds me of my husband who passed away 2015 we were into all kinds of music especially Joan Baez Bob Dylan the doors, Pink Floyd, bad company, every kind of music there was basically. So I can't escape him he was my soulmate and every song reminds me of him❤😢
ᆢ.
마음이 아프네요..
Save him from himself? The man is the most acclaimed songwriter of all time and his career has played out perfectly fine without Joan’s saving, he did not require saving from Joan. As a matter of fact Joan contributed to pushing Dylan away because she was constantly demanding that he keep writing protest songs the rest of his life and actually rejected a proposal of marriage from him at one point.
This may be the greatest love song ever written.
I certainly cannot think of a better one.
It gives me chills every time.
I agree. Based on two people who shared an intense love at one time.
Right. Nothing better than a melancholic love ballad. Harry Chapin’s TAXI is another one. And Bread’s AUBREY. Just to name two. ✨
Chills for sure. A masterpiece

If this is Joan Baez, you have been one of my inspirations for most of my life.
Her voice just mesmerizes me. Great lyrics of a broken heart. Everyone knows of Dylan and Joan's failed love affair. I just think that it is very hard for the creative artists who on meteoric trajectories to stay synchronized. He was not evil nor was she stupid...the stars simply didn't align for them in that time. Joan I will always love your voice and songs.
I was introduced to this song from the Judas Priest cover & it absolutely blew my mind ……and now listening to the original from Joan, I’ve become overwhelmed with emotion……absolutely stunning song……Brilliant
I too remember as a very young person being introduced to this song by the Judas Priest cover. I knew that it was a cover of her song. But I just read an interview of Joan Baez about her upcoming film biography and this song and Bob Dylan was discussed. I see now that she wrote this about him and she was obviously absolutely heartbroken. I’m not a folk music fan. I love my hardcore alternative rock. But knowing the history behind this now, I’m in tears.
And I agree with her activism. She’s a legend.
its so cool they coverd this
same
This song is the absolute masterpiece of Joan, I can loop it one hour without getting bored and the feeling is still intense. She suffered a lot with BD and you feel it
Absolutely the same with me, this song is so intense, it never gets boring to me. Greatest love song about a unfulfilled love
Oui...les frissons à chaque écoute....
J' aime tant Joan Baez !...c' est toute mon adolescence que je retrouve avec ses chansons et particulièrement celle-ci qui me bouleverse pour tout ce qu' elle dit de son amour déçu...

It meant so much in the 70’s & still today. The angst of our lives. Jeanne (retired RN)
Dear God, how lucky were we between the ages of 60 to 70 to be apart of the best music EVER.
I agree, I'm part of that era and you could listen to the radio all day and never hear a lousy song. So much creativity and passion in the music. I had this album and virtually wore it out. I saw a video on TH-cam that someone put up of her singing at an outside concert in 2017 and her voice has not changed. She's just as vibrant as she ever was.
Absolutely, we were aware of the unique beauty of it all living through it as we are still today in our aches and pains.
@@michaelrickard9890 Going back to that music provides refuge and comfort in our years now, having memories tied to that era and grateful we had it all back then.
I totally agree. We grew up with the best music ever made.

Just one of her masterpieces, unforgettable.
This song opens small breaks in my heart.
Hi Jaz💐💐
Better have someone take a look at that.
I am a young person and didn't know much about Joan Baez until recently. But this song shows me just how wonderful and beautiful a singer she is.

@@bartbaxter7630 Thank you, and you as well!

Well she seems to kind of take it in stride, in a way; sort of resigned to his, um, boorishness. But you know it's not okay. And her voice is so beautiful..
I saw her at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR about 15 years ago. Her hair was turning grey so it seemed her beauty and maturity made her even more of a goddess. She introduced this song as it being about an old friend. One of the greatest concerts ever in my life. She is an American Hero for her music, her activism and her eternal beauty.
Beautiful, Joan, & the song as beautiful as you, I've followed your beautiful singing, with your lovely voice throughout many years, & you are still at the top, with Linda Ronstadt, both of you of Mexican-German parentage... I'm +91, & yet heard no better...
When I was little my father loved to listen to Joan Baez))) my father passed away 5 years ago, Now when I listen to Joan Baez I cry because I miss him so much (So I want to say Thank you so much Joan Baez for this song)
Joan was my mom's favorite artist and and my mom is in ICU. I don't think she's gonna make it and I keep playing this over and over. I play it for my mom I hope she hears it.
Update: My mom passed on Wednesday October the 2nd 2019. Her name was Joan.😔

Yeah Bob Dylan screwed that one up you should have kept her
@@arnoldblashak171
Yes he most certainly did.
👍💗✌️
@@arnoldblashak171 Dylan had an affair with Baez as his relationship with Suze Rotolo was ending partly due to Suze getting pregnant with Dylan's child and having an abortion in 1963.
Baez lyric "You flew right into my arms. Temporarily lost at sea, the Madonna was yours for free, the girl on the half shell that would keep you unharmed" is a brilliant bit of self reflection.
I am an Italian teacher, I often offer to my children Joan Baez to listen... It is a tendresse for their young souls
"Well I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again. But that's not unusual, its just that the moon is full". Great line. And I can relate.

From a broken heart will do that.
A beautiful beautiful song but the line strictly for me we. Both could have died than and there it doesn't top the beauty
Of that line and didn't they realize the music lost by there not having children
Together
Probably the most perfect love song from the 70s - let it play on repeat for all time.
I agree. 🇨🇦
Just major chills and goosebumps whenever I hear this song. We all have had someone in our lives like Baez had Dylan. This song is her masterpiece.
What a voice, what a period, what a generation, respect!!!
no se volvera a repetir aquellos años y esas voces como era la de joan baez, ahora hemos llegado a un punto donde solo se oye la basura.....quien lo iba a decir
How ... How on earth i gru upp in Canada and i did not know that this song are exsist aoutside Andormeda gaxy ??
Preach!! What a time!!

Remember this if you remember nothing else in life. The person who cares the least in any relationship has all the power.
I guess you are right...
I guess you are wrong

Wow , pretty profound, and I believe your right.
Correct
When Joan came out with Diamonds And Rust I knew then how great she was. And all these years she's handled herself so well!
Got it on repeat. Once is never enough with a Joan Baez record.

Was lousy doesn't mean doomed to be forever lousy, eh?
Ain't that the truth. I've heard it over 20 times in the last 6 months here and it still warms the heart.
Captures Dylan's undoubtedly bitchy character so well.

I have been in love with Joan Baez since 1967 and she never knew, I was 15 and she was 26.
I still love her ❣️
This is the best song she ever did ❤️🌹
She will always be beautiful 🥰
Joan Baez was the loveliest hippie ❤
The acoustic harmony is so beautifully arranged
Hi Dorothy💐💐
this song is just soul touching, that voice so sorting so lovely
joan baez has always been one of my favorite singer, what do you admire most about her
Not only that glorious voice, but her use of words - her integrity, her courage, and her strength. An inspiration to me since I was a teenager - deepest respect to a wonderful lady !!!
Lots of guts to bring it all out there - the iconic love story that never made it to the final round. "You're telling me you're not nostalgic, well - give me another word for it. You were so good with words and at keeping things vague." Wow. Moves me every time.
I was 12 years old when I first heard and saw Joan Baez performing at Provincetown- Cape Cod- MA. I am now 73 years old and I continue to be mesmerized by her music. In my teen years I listened to her music and learned the lyrics which I can still sing. Thank you Joan
I had not listened to this classic song in a while, and this got to me. This is an amazingly beautiful, haunting, personal and moving song. It's simply a classic. All we are is diamonds and rust. Diamonds and rust.
I love how this song *flows*.
Unbelievable. This is a river, not a song.

Mystery Egg i only heard it myself for the first time a few months ago. I know how you feel.
wow! join us
Me too! I mean, "recent fan" at least, but very hooked.
What a beautiful song. And what a striking portrait of Dylan.
Bob held Joan on a pedestal it is true . Than he burst on the scene . Bob is a tough nut to crack , that's what makes him Bob Dylan
Traducción
striking - like "take that"
It is pure poetry by Joan Baez and it is not lousy at all.
I have loved this song since it came out, and now listening to it 44 years later I am getting goosebumps and tears in my eyes. That's what great music should do.
it’s a beautiful song that strikes so many chords
Gracias
I don't see many people that can spell Thomson correctly. Lol.
The ones in Scotland do. We never stop in the middle for a P.
@@kthomson1307 The English seem to like "P"ing on things. In the States it's a battle to get it spelled correctly. The best method I found was telling people not to P in my name.
I was in my cradle when Joan Baez met Bob Dylan. I don’t know how I lived this long without hearing this song. I am literally haunted by it. It’s so clearly painful but so unbelievably beautiful. Thanks for posting this.
I love the lyrics of this song. She is in shock from hearing from someone she had essentially forgotten and between the usual chit-chat her mind is filled with glimpses of memories. So genuine.
"here comes your ghost again , but that's not unusual" means she still thinks of him often.
I don't think she had forgotten about him at all. I hear the song very differently.
@@8ofwands300 yeah….. you could be right.
and that someone is Bob Dylan, of course
"Forgotten" - never.
In my opinion this is one of the greatest songs ever written - only just discovered it
never too late ;)
@@marie-solangebouissac4420 You should try to listen to some more of her music it is superrb/iconic
@@henry6149, sure, I've been listening to her music for more than 50 years ;)
@@marie-solangebouissac4420 So have I and loved every minute of it, you are obviously a women of taste
Try her version of "Forever Young" another beautiful song.
Joan's most personal feelings about Bob with a hauntingly beautiful poetic melody.. All of the photos of them together make it even more emotional.
it is not written with the head, it is written with the heart, what dictates the soul
I agree. Long after we're gone someone will stumble on this classic and it will still.be as emotionally raw, yet evolved, as it is now. It's great song writing.
True, and she puts her heart out there for the world to see. I loved this song as a kid. Maybe my mom should have been concerned. Lol
Dale Ciclon
I disagree that only the heart dictates the soul. Our Higher soul is head driven, but I would agree that it is also affected by the heart. Western Civilization is made possible in part by making moral decisions based on our brains in spite of what our hearts tell us to do or what our heart may say is right or wrong. Moral truths are rational not emotional.
well said Dale
My God what a powerful song! Enormous declaration of love and contempt together. I love you Joan, that guy did not deserve.
Men Dylan's age were trained from birth to ignore deep feelings, so many of them ended up angry, confused, and broken hearted for decades. Doesn't excuse their behavior, but if women want men to understand them, they need to know understanding is a two-way street. Insults do not always help.
My sister used to play JB 55 years ago.Not impressed.Time changes and I was so wrong.Wow.Not recent have loved her music for 30 years
Dylan was in love, as now with himself.
hahahah Bob did not deserve her yet she was forever trying to control bobs life and dominate who he was as a person by attempting to force him into left wing political activism against his will.
@@robertstack2144- you,know nothing of Bob Dylan what he is what he has experienced and how he lives with the extraordinary experience of being him.
Her voice is so beautiful, wow… I actually did not realize before that the song was about Bob, even though I knew they were together in some way. Hearing it now together with the pictures, it’s clear as day that she is singing about him and to him. What a great song, and what a great songwiriter!

SHE was the Diamond!
I honestly had unfairly judged her. Like she tried to hard. Now, I’m completely floored. Every word, and emotion is so powerful…….I’d die if someone wrote me such a perfect love song. I absolutely appreciate every aspect of this. Painfully and truly perfect.
This is the way is song should sound, and a voice should sing. Perfect song. Nothing will ever be any better than this.
Every musician has the dream of creating their masterpiece. Probably none of them dream of the heartbreak and self-examination that a true masterpiece requires. This is Joan Baez' masterpiece.
Beauty always and only grows from dung
She risked
And only those who risk can know love
" Probably none of them dream of the heartbreak and self-examination that a true masterpiece requires. " So true, Robert Cross. And we can feel it in this song.
This is my absolute favorite Joan Baez song. So beautiful.
The arrangement on this song is really outstanding. Adds a lot.
I heard this song for the first time when I was 12 and in high school......only now I fully understand the incredible poetry behind this ballad ❤❤❤❤❤...thank you Joan Baez❤❤❤❤
it's so hard to imagine that someone couldn't love Joan - beautiful, sweet, kind, talented, and well, just everything!

Such a superb song. Dylan was the supreme lyricist of my generation, but Joan was the supreme female voice. Such clarity, purity and power. And this song proved she could write as well. I will always give props to Dylan for all he has given us, but he treated Joan badly, in my eyes. Maybe it was not a match, that happens. Maybe they were too public. That happens too. But I cannot imagine he could ever find a better match. She shared his values, his way of living. She was and is luminous, and if he was dark, and still is, she could have been the beacon to take him beyond. I found my own Joan, so I know it is possible. But let us celebrate this masterpiece. So very, very good.
THIS IS A SUPER SONG
Why in the world should Dylan be taken out of his supposed "darkness" by some Baez-directed beacon of light? They were not a match, not in any way. Just because another person loves you does not mean they have even the slightest right to redirect and otherwise fuck up your life. Dylan had the strength of purpose to understand this and refuse the invitation to a life of dismal domestic ownership by someone who can't understand you.
Sorry. Grammar seems to have been rudely thrust to the side in my post.
" dismal domestic ownership by someone who can't understand you."~? really..do you have something about yourself you'd like to share?? I doubt that Joan Baez was interested in domestic ownership of anyone..least of all Dylan! how stupid do you think she was? ~and~ she probably knew him best of anyone..in those early years before he only had his 'guard up' .. not the WALL of later & now ---
It's really not a good thing to speculate about other's relationships if one does not know them. People live, love, fall out of love, find new love. That is their lives, not ours. We should just eff off and appreciate the music.
I thought I had found my soul mate late in life. Thought it was time to feel some joy and happiness so I got myself down from behind the walls and opened the door. She ripped my heart out and shoved me off the cliff, and I saw myself falling slowly to dash to pieces on the rocks below. I listened to this song and others but I played this over and over as I picked up the pieces and glued my heart back together and started walking back to close and bolt the door and climb back up behind the walls. Music like this, so raw and unfiltered, helped staunched the bleeding and let me heal. Thanks Joan.
I'm sorry this happened to you. Raw emotion and heartbreak are deep and terrible things. Peace.
Peace be upon you brother
You'll get over. Nice profile name BTW
When I first heard this song 30 years ago I didn’t know anything about Joan Baez and her relationships. But this was so hauntingly beautiful and the portrait so vivid I thought, “could she be talking about Bob Dylan?” Lady, this song is the definitive riposte to “my poetry was lousy”.
Somebody should have made a movie with this story; a rare love story. A beautiful song.
script is in the printer now, same old story, new actors. :-)
Brassens
I always thought this song was written by Judas Priest until I saw a video on YT! On the video Rob Halford said the song was written by Joan Baez so I had to check it out. Oh my God! What a song! What a voice! Hands down this is beautiful
There record company suggested the song to them. They choose to remake it there way, it has been a staple for there shows for 40+ years.
Very beautiful
I thought the Priest wrote it also. Joan does it beautiful... 💞🎶
The melody alone gives me chills, add the instrumentation and the voice, and it's almost too much. SOOO beautiful.
Wow 😯
Just found this woman and this song and what an amazingly haunting and beautiful song….. and voice.
To know she truly meant everything she said takes it from a great song to a masterpiece 👌🥰
Now listen to the Judas Priest version!
@@DeformedConscience
back in '89 i left oklahoma and my 10 year legal career to follow my ex-wife and young daughter to washington state . . . so i could maintain 50% custody. i left behind a well loved girlfriend and her young daughter. she was unable to move, and i could not see how i could "trade" daughters without possibly losing my own child. i can't express how difficult it was (and yet, simple and inevitable). i paused outside of oklahoma city and called C----- from a phone booth (pre-cell-phone). we essentially cried at each other for about 10 minutes.
every time i hear diamonds and rust i think of that departure and that phone call. 26 years just fall away, and i remember how lost i felt.
+Michael Hildebrand The life decisions we make but constantly think about. What if.........
+Michael Hildebrand like boats against the current we are borne back ceaselessly into the past
Man! Michael I hope it worked out for you.... Wishing you the love you deserve.......
thank dog for google. I was going crazy trying to remember where I'd heard that brilliant, and in my life, very apt quote. F Scott Fitzgerald.
Michael, your story is much more touching than this song. I just cried for you. Sometimes, we cannot choose between two options. I guess you just followed your heart, the strongest voice deep inside. So, don't feel regret. If let you choose again, you might make the same decision. If she loved you enough, I guess she would leave everything behind and just follow you. So I think she might feel more regretful than you do. That's why she cried on the phone for 10 minutes later. However, even if you and she went together at that time, it is also possible that you two might break up someday. But there will be no regret for both of you. So, regretting over the undone is more harmful than the real damage made. That’s why insomnia is not a problem, and the real problem is worrying about insomnia. In psychology, your story could be called the “incomplete complex”. You will never begin a new chapter if your mind always lingering on the previous incomplete chapter. So let bygones be bygones, and keep going.
How fortunate some of us are to have lived when a lot of music was enduring art. Great music will never die.
Great song! Sung with such feeling. I am discovering Joan all over again. Her poetry is straight from the heart.

me too friend
try sad eyed lady by joan, written by bob Dylan.
saw on TV a documentary with the two and can now only again connfiirm her then felt pain hurt emotions and cold Bob heartless putting her down " poetry" laugh and so on.I now understand it all and therefore it is her absolute clear honesty that changed her diamonds to be his rust.old man saw him 4 years ago oh my oh my most left.it all gets back.keeps no not so you where s.one now you are nooone.sad man.karin**
see it the other way round: imagine how much mor beautyful music is out there for to be discovered! Happy discovering!
hard to believe 414 people gave this a thumps down. I guess they don't have much appreciation for great music.
Yes poor of them
Well it doesn’t surprise me at all when you look around at all the assholes who hate America, the greatest country in the history of the world. They are fatalist who wouldn’t take a single step in the direction of saving their very souls, let alone, recognize something good right in front of them.

@@leslieb6881: screw you and your political rant. Did you like the song?
John Thomson: It’s excellent! Haunting and beautiful.
The first time I heard her sing this song was at the Civic Center in Portland, Maine in the early 70's. Truly an experience of a lifetime.
A true classic, so very soothing and penetrating melody and its lyric...keep singing Joan
My dad played this song 4 me 1 x only. He could play so Awesome , but he would have to be drunk B4 he could even get going and the sad part was he just didn't know how blessed he truly he was to have such talent and just let it go to waste.. This was the 1 and only song he made it ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND DIDNT SKIP A BEAT. IT WAS A ONCE IN A LIFE TIME MOMENT AND I WILL NEVER FOR GET IT. THX DAD FOR THE Epic moment.
Exquisite lovesong flawlessly sung , absolutely perfect in every way,Dylan should've been totally humbled by this glorious vocal gesture of love....
He has said that he is
Been listening to her music since my early 20’s. Now in my early 70’s. Nothing better. I found a very old album then and still remember lyrics of songs she gave to us. My favorite singer ever.
One of my all time favourites by Joan. Her voice is haunting.
