I've said it before on here and say it again:
She's beautiful and makes that violin CRY for the loss (in the song).
His voice is grounded in the earth and soil, and mourns his loss (in the song) as well.
I love the Dylan song, but this stands on it's own as greatness.
This is, in my opinion, by far the most heartfelt rendition of this song.
Enjoy it so so much.
Thank you.
Helps it is from one lover to another! Means more when the message is TRULY, as you said, heartfelt.
I thought I loved the Carolyn Hester/Nancy Griffith version from Dylans 30th Anniversary Concert...but the more I listen to this one I'm changing my mind. This is the most enjoyable.
Listen to ronnie drew and elanor shanley version,way better in my opinion
you are dumb. This sucks.
@@WayneFielder shut up wayne.
Never fails. Every time I play this, my eyes start welling up with tears. His masterful picking, and her exquisite timing with the violin just turn this 6'2" man into a train wreck.
The sound of unrequited love.
@@Mark-oj9to I love sharing this with a stranger and get their reaction. Incredible song done by them.
Made this old salt pretty damn teary eyed.This version is not a cover,but a fuckin masterpiece in it's own right.
I agree. The exchange is breathtaking.
Whenever I hear Dylan sing I want to drink my own bath water and howl at the moon. He's an awful singer, but this is a great song.
Agreed Sir 🙏🙏
same here
@@glennbullock3778 ROFL!
When my mom was leaving this world much of her final days were spent with the music she had filled our lives with. We didn't often have a TV when I was little, but we had music. All the music. There was not a genre she did not expose me to. One night it had gotten late and everyone was asleep, she had drifted off and the music was still playing and this song came on. It was one we had shared every cover of it that we could find with one another. It was one of our favorites. I started singing it and she reached over and grabbed my hand and started singing along. Her eyes remained closed and she had such peace. It was like she was just going to get up the next day and be fine. I was just a little girl and she was trying to get me to go back to sleep. I don't share her faith, but the only word I have for moments like that we shared in her last days is holy. I found this version today, I am sad that I can't send it to her, but maybe she hears it anyway.
Beautifully put. Life is such a chance occurrence, that we spill out of the void into this world for an almost immeasurably short time, after which we return to the peace of the void. Eons expire before our arrival, and will expire after our departure, and nothing will be remembered. You and your mother shared closeness in your time together, and that is what gives meaning to life, for the world does not come packaged with meaning - either we make it for ourselves and our loved ones, or we never know it. The word "holy" is a perfectly good choice for a description of your experience. As for your sadness, that is a measure of the love you shared, the sentiment of which you have conveyed, and that's a fitting tribute to you mother's memory. The invention of such meaning is its own reward.
Your story warmed my heart Cassandra.. nothing happens by chance. You were meant to stumble upon this song.. probably a sign from love and your Mom.. stay Blessed🕊🌼
Thank you, for sharing this. I understand. The soul is the key. People are unaware of what matters these days. Thank you.
beautiful may she rest in peace to raise you so well
@@patrickobrien8851 not sure I've seen a better explanation...when there are no words left to say...and all we have left is a hand to hold we can see the true meaning of our relationships in that moment. What a beautiful exchange.
Rarely do I care for covers. This is simply sublime.
This is one of a number of cases in which the cover seems to match the tone of the lyrics better than the original. Of Monsters and Men doing Circles and Obadiah Parker doing Hey Ya! are just a couple that come to mind.
Check out The Petersens. You will love covers after you see them. Start with The Scientist, almost as beautiful as this.
It is pretty damn hard to have the BEST version of a Bob Dylan song, but that is EXACTLY what these two did.
You nailed it. To perfect a Dylan song is a mastery of the musical talents, most warranted.
Awesome duo beautiful sound 👌
Yup! Turns me on! I miss Dylan and Jerry.....
This is very nice. I also like Nancy Griffith's version with Jerry Douglas on the Dobro.
Yup
If they don't play it in my funeral I'm not coming.
FR
Yes!!!!
it could be the best!
Lovely contrast between the two voices: she's ethereal and he's earth and gravel. Just beautiful.
great call!
Well described
What an apt description of this Beautiful Rendition of a Bob Dylan Classic ☮️
I don't know what ethereal means but like you said Just Beautiful
@@jamesabraham2067 Ethereal means extremely delicate , almost too perfect .
Bob, thank you for writing the most beautiful love song ever written.
Mandolin Orange, thank you for performing the most beautiful rendition ever performed.
Spot on my starchild
Sung as a duet makes it so much sadder. The gradual but inevitable separation is truly heart-breaking. She had the aim of letting him down slowly, so there is love there (although she seems to have conveyed the news while stll en route). His sad acceptance and request for a gift (possibly as a reminder and possibly his consideration for her that she needs a salve reduces the elemental to the banal, yet the love exists. Their voices are perfect together. I cry when I hear this version. I cry for broken hearts and unrequited yearning.
Beautifully stated
Made all the more poignant with the knowledge that this was written about Suze Rotolo, his girlfriend who went to Italy to get away from him. This song really demonstrates how heartbroken he was by the loss. What a great rendition this is. I can't believe it took 8 years for me to discover this!
I am on old man and I remember being captivated by the original version by Bob Dylan. I think there might never be a better cover of it than this - is it perfect?
Yes it is.
I think it's perfect. I can't imagine better playing, singing or youthful anticipation in this song. I play it often.
yes
I imagine smiling when he hears this.
It is perfect
One of the things I love about Mandolin Orange is that they know the value of simplicity.
It's weird, its almost not simple though.... it's some music when you can't even explain what you (i or anybody) want to about the music...
Greg Carrier so cool and so true...✌️☮️✌️
Greg Carrier 72 yr old Aussie, been watching and listening from afar for a couple years...,music from the heart..😄
It's hard making it sound simple but it sure as fuck ain't simple
Yeah..they are out of my home state North Carolina! Great band. I love 💘 their simplicity 💕.
I can't count the number of times I have listened to this sad, soulful song by Dylan. This is the best cover I have ever heard of a Dylan song.
Same here mate 👍
Old Navy lived this song word for word. I own a Spanish Sword ( Toledo Spainish Sword) of Golden......
This is an exquisite cover, but I'd have to give the nod to Hendrix's version of Watchtower. It was more of radical reinterpretation, such that Dylan himself started performing it in that style (and explicitly acknowledged that fact), and, well, Hendrix's fiery guitar playing certainly does not suck.
I found another cover of dylan's, girl from north country by Lions, found it watching Sons of Anarchy. It's more rock like, but I get the same emotions as this
@@danielabbott5161Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra does a great version of Girl from the North Country. There singer has a massive voice.
This version of the song breaks my fucking heart more than any other version of the song
how can it not?
How nice of Bob to write this for you, amazing 👏 .
how does this video NOT have like 23 million hits !?
It is up to 16 million now. :)
My 6 year old daughter asks me to play this at least 3 times a week. And now she wants to play violin. Couldn’t be more pleased.
Love this group and this song.
That's awesome. It really shows the power of music.
Nick DeAngelo check out willow osbourne
That's good, but it's called a fiddle when playing songs like this.
She's got good taste!
my daughter play viola...story is very simmillar when we been on concert Orthodox Celts (Serbin band playin` Irish traditional), she starting with violin, now she is on master study, 23 yers old and enjoy in music......good luck, greetings from Serbia!
One of the best things TH-cam has given me is an introduction to Mandolin Orange
this song makes more sense when sung as a duet. Bravo.
My absolute favorite 👏👏👏🥰🥰
Wildly rare that a cover elevates, illuminates, reveals so far, far above the original. Emily and Andrew have transformed Dylan's anger into a song of her emancipation from their relationship, his expectation of ownership, his anguish, her offer of solace, his eventual acceptance. I've listened to this perhaps hundreds of times since it first showed up on TH-cam now 9 years ago. It is exquisite.
I didn’t have the words, so thank you for beautifully describing how this song felt to me. ♥️
Wonderfully spoken.
All very subjective and all valid points, but not a patch on the original.
Magical rendition ❤
I listen to it weekly!
One of the most haunting vocals I’ve ever heard… brings immediate joy to the soul
or sadness, why did she leave him if she loves him? i feel his pain, sad very sad
@@richvanne7334 she had to move on - he finally gets it.
The lyrics here are what makes this so fabulous; the girl is leaving the guy and she's trying to tell him that this is it, but he's labouring under the misapprehension that she'll be back. She's wants to send him something to tie a neat bow on the whole endeavor (and maybe assuage a little bit of guilt) but he's still fixated on her coming back to him. And then she finally rips off the band-aid ("I don't know when I'll be coming back again...") And then he asks for boots - the only thing you really need to keep on moving. Masterful.
Said perfectly.
While, I have listened to this song many times, I can't say that I tried to understand the lyrics. Thanks for putting this in perspective.
A time when time was so precious. Journeys were long & hearts were longing. Enjoyed your interpretation, thank you for sharing.
nice break down
that hits hard
What a truly beautiful version of this song. I have never heard this as a duet, it's amazing. Thank you! I hope Bob Dylan gets to see this. He would so appreciate it.
something deep in me says he has heard them
I am a very old man, and I want to adopt you both so that I can enhance your lifes. If I have a few more vodkas I will put you in my will! Bless you both for the joy you have given me.
This is one of the best comments I have ever read, anywhere....and I totally agree
I'm not very old, I'm only 70. I wasn't thinking of adoption.
I concur great comment. A week of drinkin beers at night and i finally put some music on this night and this song is something else
Bit of beer with music is harmless. Full of vitamins it is.
Sure. Is PayPal good? I'm also a Nigerian prince.
Just got a pathology report today and it is not good, but found this video again and put me in a peaceful place here at bed time. Listened twice again and wish I could like this a million times over. True perfection. Such talented young folks who keep it simple yet master it so well. That is to say they do this with a simplicity that only master musicians can create well. Thank you for the first calm of this day and good night.
I hope you are doing ok
Thanks Mark
I love the message of this song.
“I don’t need a gift to remember you by, just come home”
“I don’t need a gift to remember you by, just come home”
“I don’t need a gift to remember you by, just come home”
“Oh you’re not coming home and you want to send me a consolation prize? Ok, then make it expensive”
Please search what Spanish boots of Spanish leather means, it has nothing to do with an expensive gift
@@sometimeworld8212 I googled it and supposedly he said before a performance “if you can’t get what you want, take what you can get.” That seems to support my interpretation. What are you thinking it means?
@@jcorkable he repeatedly says in the song there is just one thing he wants. In the end he accepts not a random gift but spanish boots which probably relates to the medieval torturing device, boots are for walking and he ll be walking away in pain.. I dont think he changed stance ever in the song.. it brought him sorrow to the end. That's all he could actually get
@@sometimeworld8212 lol ok. I still like my interpretation better but yeah I guess maybe it could be a reference to literal medieval torture devices. Were the torture devices made from leather…?
I don’t think he changed stance either. He’s just trying to illustrate the impact her decisions are having on him by equating it to “something fine”. Obviously his first choice would still be her.
@@jcorkable its ok to follow your interpretation it doesn't matter in the end but how you yourself perceive it. But let me add one more thing. In the end he seems to be having a monologue, the girl is gone, so he asks the boots but not to the girl directly. He s talking to himself about the torture she s sending his way. That's what I think at least
Me discovering Mandolin Orange randomly on TH-cam has been one of the highlights of my life. Such beautiful humans.
Cédric St Jean their new album is amazing! Enjoy!
They sing from deep within their souls
Completly relate!
same
Cédric St Jean so very true...✌️
OMG...at age 60 I've never used that abbreviation, but what else does one say when one has discovered angels accidentally? I am blown away by the simple greatness of the session. Real music, as we old timers say. Not a bunch or nonsensical production. Just real music. Well done.
down under we say "fuck me..."
I've just listened to this with my 15 week old daughter and I swear she was taking it in. She became so still while it was playing.
I was recently told by a dear friend that he has a terminal illness. He just sent me this song. How beautiful and how sad. Thank you for sending me this and for being my wonderful Roblet. I love you❤️
Full lyrics as sung here:
Oh, I'm sailin' away, my own true love
Yes I'm sailin' away in the morning
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
From the place where I'll be landing?
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
For there's nothin' I'm wishin' to be ownin'
Just to carry yourself back to me unspoiled
From across that lonesome ocean
Well I just thought you might want something fine
Made of silver or of golden
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Or the coast of Barcelona
Well if I had the stars of the darkest night
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
Oh I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'
Well I might be gone a long long time
It is only that I'm askin'
Is there something I can send you to remember me by?
To make your time more easy passin'
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again?
For it only brings me sorrow
The same thing I would want today
I would want again tomorrow
Oh, I got a letter on a lonesome day
It was from her ship a-sailin'
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
It just depends on how I'm feelin'
If you, my love, must think that way
And I'm sure your mind is roamin'
And I'm sure your thoughts are not with me
But with the country where you're goin'
So take heed, take heed of the western winds
I'll take heed of the stormy weather
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
Spanish boots of Spanish leather
I hope the old man hears this before he dies. So long as he does, he can go in peace, knowing there are young folks who understand.
It ain't dark yet, but even though it's getting there, there's light on the horizon.
This song Reminds me of my Grandmother.
As a young girl, she left her city of Madrid for a New York Harbor.
With nothing to carry but the hope in her heart for something greater than what she had. I can only imagin the words she spoke to them before she boarded the great ship. She must have asked them what gifts she could send, to the family in Barcelona.
I like to believe that her familiy's only pray was for her return to them safely, with open arms and her sweet kiss.
What a beautiful rendition of a timeless classic. I love the call and response that makes this hit home. Their fiddle and guitar playing and vocals are so beautifully performed this really strikes at the heart of the human experience... right in the feels.
This performance nearly brings tears to my eyes. The wife and I are both huge fans. Nothing better than a quiet morning... cup of coffee... plate of biscuits and gravy... Madoline Orange on the hi-fi... it just doesn't get any better. Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us.
Jamie Bryan sounds like the perfect morning...✌️☮️✌️
Sitting here over coffee and this beautiful rendition with my two young boys feeling the sheer magic that is their lives. Amazing how a melancholy sounding song like this can amplify the best emotions that life has to offer.
What time is breakfast...mmmmmm!
Whata mean nearly, everytime I play it I cry
@@stevesharkey470 me too. like a baby.
Her playing of the violin so poignantly expresses the sentiment of the song, it's something I don't see often. Simply beautiful.
Its the best and most intense i have ever heard. Its amazing.
Yes, Emily gets absorbed with both the song and the lyrics - she embodies the music they're making. And Andy matches her intensity in a much more subtle way. Making music, living music - not just playing it.
Being a Spaniard listening to this song while going for a walk in the hills, with my Spanish boots of Spanish leather feels truly great.
If Bob Dylan ever hears this version I hope he sheds a tear. It deserves this.
Boots to help move on and travel your own way, but never forgetting. Such a bittersweet song of love, loss and reconciliation.
I love this song. Out of respect I made sure to listen to Dylans original version and while he wrote the lyrics and was iconic, you both have perfected his work. No better version out there in my opinion.
This song was absolutely meant to be sang as a duet, and is all the more impactful for it when recorded as so.
I've listened to and played tunes for over 30 years and am sure that there is not a a more beautiful rendition of a song and its message than this.
Been listening to this for 6 years… still love it as much as I did the first listening ❤️
This is one of my all time favorite Dylan tunes and these two just smashed everything I knew of this song to pieces. I can't recall the last time I was moved to tears by a song but I wont soon forget this one. They sang this like it was a true story from their life and I felt it in my bones. There isn't anything else I can ask from a song. She has a wonderful voice. Bless you both and thank you for sharing.
The picking is exquisite, the voices perfectly blended and inflected, the fiddle properly mournful, and the lyrics from another world. You can't surpass this version.
Well said. I totally agree. I have to view and listen to this almost daily.
wonder cover
David Theisen
you could if you saw Nancy Griffiths version is deadly
but I love this too .
David Theisen
kerry evans -you are entitled to an opinion -as am I -but I just listened to the nanci Griffiths cover and its crap-nothing like dylans' original or the superb improvement from mandolin orange -which adheres to the Dylan original in all major respects-ie tune-wise -harmonies melodies and the guitar picking and so on .the nanci griffth version has a different tune and the instruments are wrong and her voice is fine for her fans I guess but crap.no one can totally ruin a song this great-which is why everyone covers dylans songs -and I don't want to knock all country and western or all cabaret type acts but her version is so poor -and I have wasted years looking high and low for the most beautiful and interesting cover versions of dylans songs ie .....norah jones's version live on piano at steve jobs funeral of forever young or mandolin oranges version with fiddle and female voice of boots of spanish leather.moses atwood s version of Spanish harlem incident live or the ps22 choirs version -shortened of i'll keep it with mine -I have listened to thousands and loved dozens and think 10 or more are as good or better than dyans own versions -I don't want to be negative and everyone is entitled to an opinion but nanci Griffith I do not rate and see no redeeming quality -a typical country and western cabaret manufactured pretty girl -like many others in my opinion .
This is a great Bob Dylan song, and this is the best version of it that I have ever heard.
I like it better to be honest!
@@rhondawebb7985 ...concur,,,,justice served...and done...:0'
Agree❤️
For damn sure
Absofuckinlutely:)
"Here is proof that there is still Love on this lonely piece of dirt."
I'm a bit of a Dylan fanatic, I'm always leery of covers, too many people lose the feel and sprit of his music trying to make it appeal to the masses. I stumbled across this cover, it's an absolutely brilliant cover of one of my favourite Dylan songs.
I fully agree with you. Greetings from another Dylan fanatic.
And from another old Dylan -fan from Norway!
Every Dylan cover is better than the original. Helluva songwriter Dylan is. But he can’t deliver a song to save his soul.
@@bobbykirl7894 Nah...Almost I think Madoline Orange makes "Spanish Boots" better...
@@torvilasulvstle362 That's what Bobby Kirl was saying, and I agree. I didn't care for Dylan until I heard other people singing his songs. Then I realized his genius - writing songs. Not singing them, though there are quite a few he does very well.
Hands down the best performance of this song ever!
Recently a friend of mine went to Peru. Being us italian, she moved across that lonesome ocean to a Spanish speaking country, where she's staying for a long long time.
Maybe that's why i needed to liste to this again.
Was fortunate enough to have caught Mandolin Orange Saturday night when they opened for Emmy Lou Harris. They stole the show in my mind. Now I'm on a mission to discover more of their music. Restores one's faith that there are still actual musicians out there, not just a bunch of contrived studio-created "entertainers"...
A tip of the hat to you from a 67-yr-old Dylan fan for this splendid duo cover of his heartbreaking song. Wonderful to see young folks bringing such renewed life and talent to a classic from '63.
Better by far than the original!!
Okay, boomer
@@jacq-ofalltrades6964 Nonsense. No one does Dylan better than Dylan. This is a very atmospheric cover, no doubt about it. But when an original artist of recognized talent does his or her own work, he or she touches a core that covers circle lovingly but never reach. You'll come to understand this in due course - there is time for you yet.
@@patrickobrien8851 I daresay beauty or taste of anything is in the eye or preference of whoever partakes... I listened to Dylan with an open mind and ear as well as Nanci Griffith's cover...neither touched me as much as this version...to each his own. I do however think that no one could ever do justice to "Like a Rolling Stone" even my favorite band The Rolling Stones! Then again, there may be someone out there who feels otherwise so again, to each his own... I'll compare this to those who disparage other's taste in food... I love fried "chittlins", just like my mama used to cook! But, them being a taste associated with my childhood and a part of where and how I was raised, I don't expect everyone to have my same affinity for them! Good day to you sir and I hope you and yours are faring ok in the crisis we are all facing in today's world, stay well and safe!
J F, you know I had to google that!
🤣😂🤣😁
Hope you and yours are doing well and stay healthy during these times.
A masterpiece of music tells an unrequited love story. But most amazing is how quickly it takes me away to an age of wooden ships and unfathomable distances. I can smell the rolling sea and the creaking deck boards..
This song is so much better as a duet.
I've been listening to this song for 50 years. I don't think I ever heard a sweeter rendition. Wonderful..
Yes.
Exactly.
You should hear the one sang by The Luminiers. Really good too.
see Nancy Griffith's version, in addition
@@eliguaso22 Came here from the Lumineers version, that one is just dull, boring and uninspired, they simply covered a great song, without any soul. (This) Mandolin Orange version, on the other way, is the real deal, they bring soul and body to wonderful Dylan's lyrics.
When she starts fiddling, that's when tears come running.
Audiotree captured some gold with this one. I have to come back every so often and listen. In a room by myself. With my eyes closed.
With eyes closed and tears down my face, it's beautiful -
I miss those I've love for who are traveling an afterlife where I hope to meet them again someday ❤️
How rare it is to find a cover that surpasses the original.
Great one it is. But, going forward, please start comments like yours with 'in my opinion'. To hear Bob Dylan's 1963 recording, in its original format and with the time period included, is (in my opinion) 'in-surpass-able'. But that said, yes I do consider this version of a Dylan masterpiece Golden.
Yeah, it’s good. But it’s not Dylan.
Yeah I've heard a few covers of this song. Great lyrics.
@@aliasdyln33it’s better no doubt
One of the most beautiful solo of violin together with the guitar and his voice that I heard in my life. It goes deep and deep in the soul like a knife that cuts the air and inside of me. Thank you very much for this beauty, bravo, bravo. 👏👏👏
My dad had manic depression. Music helped him relax. He often stayed alone many nights in his later year enjoying music When he was ill was prob the most stressful time in my life but I was lucky to have seen him and was there his final days he would love this 💜🦋🧡
The lyrics to this song get me each time. Mandolin Orange made this Bob Dylan song their own. I love the sadness the violin brings to this song.
I've listened to this so much that it appears on the right hand side bar EVERY time I come to TH-cam.
This is one of my favorite songs and they kill it of course because they are unbelievable musicians. Emily's fiddle is just heart wrenching. Beautifully done.
Hi
This was exactly what Suzy Rotolo told Bob near the end of their romantic relationship. We have all had our hearts broken a time, or two, so we can relate. Thank you Mandolin Orange. BEAUTIFUL!
im a 300 lbs guy from nyc and every time I listen to this song I end up crying
I’m an old, old Dylan fan. And this is definitely best cover I’ve heard/seen of “Boots of Spanish Leather”.
I'm with you, Robert. But I must say that this cover I enjoy more than the original. It is like Bob wrote it for Mandolin Orange. Dillion is amazing but this is better than what he could have done with it.
@@MrShawnduggan I agree 100% , this Song was meant to be a Duo 💕💕
The positivity in the posts for their music speaks volumes of their fans
@@johnmurray5685 Nanci Griffith did a pretty good version . RIP Nanci.
This is actually the best version of this song...
I'm a big fan of Dylan too but Mandolin Orange sublime it !
Her voice is almost hypnotic; so beautiful. His is so unique and he carries it perfectly. What a great pair!
He doesnt really sing - short bursts - almost as if he hasnt much range
I’ve been coming back to this song for awhile now. I just couldn’t help but say it, this song is a fucking masterpiece, it’s truly a blessing to be alive just to listen to something so beautiful. THANK YOU!🙏
I listened to this song tons of times over the years from Dylan, but never really paid enough attention to the words (an unforgivable sin with a Dylan song) but this is the first time I really understood the depth of heartbreak for him and the depth of her choice to move away on an adventure.
a fiddle & guitar can break your heart
Charles Baker Amen.
+Chris So Ditto.
+Charles Baker Indeed, especially when there is a saint like Emily sawing the strings
+Martin Maner Saint, hell... Emily is a goddess.
+Charles Baker yep-per…
Bob Dylan delivered a master class in the art of writing a classic folk song when he wrote Boots of Spanish Leather. This song could have easily been written hundreds of years ago. I thank Mandolin Orange for this beautiful cover - it's a masterpiece.
This could be the best cover of any song ever. I love mandolin orange.
Why would 1.9 K people give this a thumbs down?
I agree wholeheartedly! ❤💋😘
@@mikec1152complete trolls
I cannot even begin to tell you how this song makes me feel. Music for the soul, truly. Music that makes you FEEL. This is by far the best cover of this song ever. Thank you so much for sharing it with the world. Much love...
This is the song that turned me on to Mandolin Orange. I have been hooked ever since.
Yes !!!!!!
A tear with every listen.
The genius of Dylan is that his songs often provide other brilliant musicians with their finest moment...as here
So true
This is such a beautiful song. The wail of the violin at 3:58 has such a bluegrass feel to it. Never get tired of listening to it.
I must have played this 100s of times. The best version of this song. Thank you from Ireland.
The hours of loneliness are filled with this music - thank you. As hard as life can be human beings can create beauty enough to numb the pain.
Agreed 100% I can't get enough of these two.
Thanks to Chris Robinson for creating beauty along the way as well. Cheers, brother.
Chris Robinson ✌✌✌
Chris Robinson Dream on an ocean like a message in a bottle I let em all go....This is an amazing rendetion though. Cant wait to See u Halloween man! Cheers.
Life is full of peaks and valleys, my friend. The sun comes up. The sun goes goes down. Over and over. But tomorrow? Tomorrow is something exquisite...it holds the promise of something new if you dare to take it.
This is the most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard. And I am old.
She's stunningly beautiful with a voice like an angel! Not to mention shredding that violin! What an amazing duo.
I'm so thrilled to read these glowing reviews. I've been stumbling along thinking I had somehow accidentally come upon the best version ever of this Dylan tune only to find so many of you in full agreement. Something about the first hearing of this tune stopped me in my tracks. Who are these two and how do they hit me so powerfully? Simply resonates and transports. Thank you Mandolin Orange (Watchhouse).
It was like I heard it for the first time. And I tear up and cry every. Time. Speaks to Dylan's writing.
.To make your time more easy passing is a great line
Love you Jack Frost ;-)
Absolutely beautiful!❤
They unfolded a gem and made it shine.
the haters, heartless, brainless, soulless, just another example of what's wrong with this world today. This song and duo/band are simply brilliant , just what this world needs right now. calms my soul
Very good comment. So many selfish people ruin good people.
"calms my soul"... i have used those exact words when describing this band. This entire world could greatly benefit from finding a few things that calm their souls. I am deeply grateful for finding this one that works for me.
Agreed..😌
This song rips out my heart and stomps it like turning grapes to wine every single time l hear it.
So simple but so effective. Their voices are so suited to this song. Sad and beautiful. Great version. ☘️
Your music pulls me home. No matter how far away I go. No matter the cultures experienced. This is the sound of home. It touches my soul deeper than anything else. Thank you for these tears.
I been a Dylan fan for 35 years, heard so many covers, you two are outstanding, the dudes voice is just amazing, sure Bob is impressed too.. Wow
Scot, "I've been a Dylan fan" and "dude's voice". Learn about apostrophes.

I've always felt Dylan's lyric was the most poignant portrait of a couple struggling to come to terms with the end of their relationship (though the second voice is in more denial than the first) that has been committed to writing. So perfectly evocative and subtle.
And this is an exquisite cover.
🇨🇦 this is for me is my favorite version of this Bob Dylan tune .I wish it was on the Watchhouse Spotify list.❤
Whoever you are: Thanks for posting this on youtube - I'm stoked.
50 years of hearing different people do this song and this one is the best. Mandolin Orange. These two are extraordinary together.
I think I’ve listened to this 3 dozen times these past few weeks. Only gets better. Great version.
Better and cheaper than therapy
So true
This song has been with me for a million years and I've never heard it sung like this before. Brilliant.
My son was at his swim class the other day. The instructor asked him if he wanted anything from the snack bar. He said he wanted spanish boots of spanish leather.
Travis Peterson now THAT is a son!
Definitely keep him. When I was at primary school my teacher asked what bands we listened to. All kids horrible 80s pop bands. She asked me. John Prine Miss. I can still remember her face.
Proud moment for sure
That’s great!
You're doing your job. Good for you.
Having to accept something other than the thing you want most in the world... a near universal human emotion. Never has it been captured more beautifully than in these lyrics. Remarkable performance. From the first note it had every hair on my body vibrating electrically.
I'm sorry it took me 9 years to find this immaculate cover
This is comforting. Wonderful people have choices ... the guy in the song loved a wonderful person who chose someone else. Same thing happened to me last autumn. It made for an awful winter, but it's still love and they are still wonderful. And nobody is all alone in this; it has all happened before. Peace and happiness to people of good will.
5:33 goosebumps. The sound of Appalachia runs through that fiddle.
