Who would have thought that perhaps THE most incredible performance of this incredible concert would be one of Dylan's most obscure songs, sung by a group the polar opposite of him ? THAT'S the sign of masterful writing and magnificent talent.
Even more awesome is how there are 2 versions of this song by them, this one definitely being even better than the regular version. So much soul 🎶 🗣️🎙️🕺🏿
@@dannystewart3854 Yeah, they topped the charts with the other version but did it up so right for Bobfest. It's so funny how with all the big names on that bill, I turn to this song and the Clancy Brothers most. Ronnie Wood was awesome too.
The O Jays are perfect for this love song. Deep and emotional. It is better than any other version of this song I have ever heard. Absolutely brilliant.
This video-clip is the perfect example of why I never seem to spend a SHORT amount of time on TH-cam.........I'm constantly discovering a precious performance (like this), that I had no previous knowledge even existed. A half-hour seems to ALWAYS evolve into 2 and a half-hours in front of my computer! You can bet......I'm enjoying every minute.
+gamecock1972 Ive been playing it for years and years on CD> Love it! Thi is my first time seeing it! It always took me to church! I did not know it had a choir backup! ji
💕 what a performance. Just unbelievable. Every time I hear this I dance and dance. Thanks O Jay's for doing this great rendition of an absolutely gorgeous Bob Dylan song
My home boys "The O'Jays" sang this song with EMOTION too! Also like Dylans version - the lyrics are so deep - gee I would love the one who told me these words . . .
Yeah i was there @ MSG and i sat in the pilot's seat. they took off after john cougar mellancamp was over. he gave me his ticket. i probably was in the nose bleed section or snuck in. whatta party, we had fun and this was a rockin great song by the ojays!
This is why being a man means so much,to trust and be open to a woman,so she knows she can be open to me and I for her as well, this group said it well
This performance, together with Blowing in the wind by Sevie Wonder and Love minus Zero by Eric Clapton were the best three performances of this memorable 30th anniversay concert of Dylan
yeah people think Kris Kristofferson is only a country act, but he embraced all kinds of genres... he also was the "go to guy" for new blues/soul music for Janis Joplin who rarely wrote or co-wrote music herself,. He also helped introduce Gram Parsons to LA's Frank Zappa, his record labels, and last but not least, The Byrds.
Generally gospel is not my thing...but I gotta give it to them holy shit they fucking blew the roof off. This is one of my all time favorites covers. It is just so rich and soulful and absolutely just astoundingly beautiful... It is a truely amazing tribute worthy of bob dylan.
hey im glad ya loved this song. Love DAMO. wow what a snake in the grass you were at the end of the day aeee baby. had enough n had to let ya go, but i will always love ya no matter what aeee lol

I believe they had a hit single with it.
Okays could sing a nursery rhyme and rock it! Love them so much!
You could not put it better
Magnificent and masterful SINGING.
I think this is the best cover of any Bob Dylan song I've ever seen/heard.
I've said that for years myself. I feel it's THE only Dylan cover better than Bob's version.
Even more awesome is how there are 2 versions of this song by them, this one definitely being even better than the regular version. So much soul 🎶 🗣️🎙️🕺🏿

One of the greatest concerts I ever attended, and the O'Jays' performance of "Emotionally Yours" was one of the greatest live performances I ever saw.
I have listened to this song many times and each time I feel like I have been to Church.
The O Jays are perfect for this love song. Deep and emotional. It is better than any other version of this song I have ever heard. Absolutely brilliant.
One my favorite performances at that concert, they sing this song from their very souls

These beautiful people with their beautiful voices lift me personally to a place of human love and understanding, can't be a bad thing??
This is a treasure for us all. It's superhuman. It's heavenly. It's supernatural.
Performance is out of this world! And the song is genius. One of the best performances I've ever seen. What a song! Amazing.
I still struggle even today to understand how they managed to pull this song - pure genius indeed

I have been a fan of both Dylan and Canton Ohio's greatest group of all time. O'Jays do this song great justice. Much love.
Best R and B group EVER
Beautiful, love how they sing...its a emotional song all right... brings tears to my eyes just listening too the song straight from the heart & soul
Love these MEN and their MUSIC !!! Still sounding GRAND in Dec.2015!!!

❤️so lucky!
I'm open to suggestions, just, this feels like one of finest pinnacles of possibility for the human voice in song, raises me to such happiness❤❤❤
Absolutely ❤️ just superb
My very favorite Zimmy cover version...soul has no color, and talent is universal.
Wow! Brought the house down! And, yes, this is a fairly obscure Dylan track. Masterfully done.
Feels like one of the tip tops of human ability and achievement, speechless here.
This is why being a man means so much,to trust and be open to a woman,so she knows she can be open to me and I for her as well, this group said it well
Lol ❗
Je connais cette sublime version d'Emotinally Yours mais ne la trouvais pas.
Merci ++ de l'avoir mis sur You Tube.
TATA EASY e
The O-Jays lift this band up where they belong.
Best Performance at Dylan 30. Hands down.
FANTASTIC O-JAYS AND DYLAN FANS!!
Love ❤️ this song ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A beautiful but underrated song by Dylan: they have been able to make of it a real masterpiece. 👏
I just love this song !
All I can say is WOW!
This performance, together with Blowing in the wind by Sevie Wonder and Love minus Zero by Eric Clapton were the best three performances of this memorable 30th anniversay concert of Dylan
I think all ThE songs were amazing that night
I know this dream it might be crazy, but it's the only one I got! (One of the most heartbreaking lyrics ever)
It sure is a great song.
Obscure? One of Dylan's best songs from the 80s!!
I didn't hear it on rock and roll stations when I was a teenager. It was a hit on r&b.
Súper shine
I have this on my iPod and it lifts me up when I listen to it
fantastic voices
Simply perfect

Quite superb!
AWESOME O'JAYS!!!
That's what I'm talking about 👏 👏 👏 👏
wow lots of true soul
One of my top five favorites!
Best remake and performance of a Bob Dylan song ever . Not hyperbole
I love you O 'Jays
The best version of the song.
Chills every time I hear this
OMG,BREATH TAKING💓💓
The whole concert was great but as I remember it Johnny Winter and the O'Jay's really blew the roof off the dump!
Aaw mhen! Reminds me so much of my dad😫
Beautiful
So great!!!
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
I might be a little biased. But I'm old school that still sounds good to me in 2023
HARMONY THANK YOU
crushing it....
I remember when they dedicated this to the troops going to desert storm! It gave us strength and more courage
Were you there? Glad you have come back safe
Wonderfull song!! i love it!
Incredible!
Sheryl Crow in the choir!
Amazing
More beautiful than Sharon Stone
Sang it Walter!
Eddie has looked exactly the same for some 40+ years!
Why didnt they play an EXTENDED VERSION of 1h ...doubling the choir ?
One of the greatest moments ever in músic
That's how you do that!!!
Well done!!
If you look close you can see Bob watching the performance from the side of the stage
best ever ever
My best song
Generally gospel is not my thing...but I gotta give it to them holy shit they fucking blew the roof off. This is one of my all time favorites covers. It is just so rich and soulful and absolutely just astoundingly beautiful... It is a truely amazing tribute worthy of bob dylan.
They do actually blow you away don’t they
2024 I'm ryt here
I love Bob Dylan's music. But I am more partial to Marty Robbins' music. Both are definitely geniuses. To each is own.
Lift the room

LA PERA BENDITA ! QUE PASADA!
Started off promising by the time the gospel choir kicked in I was yearning for Bobs version.. brutal over kill
They must have rehearsed 1 million times to achieve something so beautiful....even the voices at the end dont belong to this planet❤🖤🤎💜💙💚
Did I see Cissy Houston in background singing.
Yes!!!! That's her!!!!
They stole ThE show
Man, this is HOT! Wow.
Who introduces them at the beginning of the video? And what is the name of the lead singer of the O'jay's? Thanks.
+Dylan Hanson 1) The Introducer is Kris Kristofferson! 2) The former lead singer of the O-Jays was Eddie Levert ;)
Walter Williams is on lead with Eddie Levert 2nd lead
Aint no FORMER lead singer, Eddie Levert is still the co-lead (main co-lead) of the Ojays.

This was written for Elizabeth Taylor...
