Elkie sang this at Whitley Bay Playhouse last night, gave me goosebumps,fabulous night, the audience loved her, best concert I've ever attended,love her.
I used to like Elkie Brooks way back in the day with Pearl’s a Singer and Sunshine After Rain, etc. Nice to know that she’s still got it, this is a great interpretation of Bob Dylan’s late career classic love ballad.
I agree this is the best version and also my favourite song of all time. She deserves so much more recognition. Saw her play the Stables In Wavendon last night - she’s phenomenal. Her rendition of this gave me goosebumps! ❤
If you read correctly you will see I wrote OBVIOUSLY. I prefer The Version by Elkie's version as she can sing. Dylan was not known for his vocal ability. Obviously my opinion.
She did a mindblowing live version of this on Radio 2 in the UK a couple of years ago that made Adele sound very average. Unbelievable voice in her mid 70's
Same here. Couldn't beleive it was taken down. Glad its back up, where can I get a copy incase it happens again? One of my favourite songs of all time.
Beautiful song. Thank you. You know i will never stop loving and wanting you. But i have to find a way to stop hurting. If i could do that without leaving you, i would be so happy. I guess i am greedy, wanting your love and wanting my self esteem both !!!
When the rain is blowing in your face And the whole world is on your case I could offer you a warm embrace To make you feel my love When the evening shadows and the stars appear And there is no one there to dry your tears Oh, I hold you for a million years To make you feel my love I know you haven't made your mind up yet But I will never do you wrong I've known it from the moment that we met No doubt in my mind where you belong I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue And I'd go crawling down the avenue No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do To make you feel my love The storms are raging on the rolling sea And on the highway of regret The winds of change are blowing wild and free You ain't seen nothing like me yet I could make you happy, make your dreams come true There's nothing that I wouldn't do Go to the ends of this Earth for you To make you feel my love, oh yes To make you feel my love
It's a tad unfair to compare Elkie with Adele. For starters, Elkie's a fair few years older than Adele and has honed her vocals, plus she's not had an easy run in life, her personal experiences alone make Adele's life seem like a walk in the park. Adele has a magnificent set of pipes on her, no-one can deny that, and she has plenty of years ahead of her to age and mellow her vocals. Yes, Elkie's rendition of this ballad pips Adele's to the post but that's not to say Adele's rendition is without merit, she makes a great effort. Elkie is the consumate torch song balladeer , Adele is Lady In Waiting, as t'were. IMHO.
Elkie sounded like this when she was 19. Check out here early stuff here on TH-cam . She is also a great Blues singer and Rock singer checks out her stuff with Vinegar Joe and Jazz singer check out her stuff with Humphrey Lyttelton
@@Jake-oc5xz ... I first saw her in 1979 at age 19 and was instantly hooked. At that age I didn't have a particularly experienced ear for music, I just knew I loved what I was hearing.. I've seen her twice more since that 1st gig, both times in the last decade so a good 30 years since I first saw her and can say she constantly amazed me with her vocals. I must add that much of Jazz leaves me cold though I can listen to her in the genre.
imo I think Rebecca fergusons is the best ,though adele and elkes versions are exceptional ,bob Dylan must be honoured to have 3 fantastic versions of his song ,
+Jackie1957able I think everyone has their own favourite version of this . This one is a bit to eer'rock' for me . I prefer.Bonnie and a young artist called Louise Setara . Definately cant rule out Garth Brooks either xxx
Elkie Brooks was singing way before Tyler, Tyler is only a studio artist. Elkie Brooks sounds great studio and live singer. Elkie is a way better singer.
Elkie sang this at Whitley Bay Playhouse last night, gave me goosebumps,fabulous night, the audience loved her, best concert I've ever attended,love her.
Shame on the record company that this wasn't a huge hit!! Absolute class.
Wow ! I didn't knew that even Elkie Brooks sang this version before Adele ! 💖💖💖
I like this version better than Adele's. Both beautiful but this has more soul.
@@pedromaione6461 indeed ! ☺☺☺
Elkie's rendition just takes you to another place. Eat your heart out Adele!
Was thinking that myself superb performance
I agree but I think Adele was 100 per cent inspired by this version so don't think she'd disagree.
Elkie Brooks version is the BEST
Oh yeah..🍒🤟
I used to like Elkie Brooks way back in the day with Pearl’s a Singer and Sunshine After Rain, etc. Nice to know that she’s still got it, this is a great interpretation of Bob Dylan’s late career classic love ballad.
Great
like fine wine Elkie just gets even better. Great voice added to life experience and a talent of connecting with a listener, perfection!
Your damn right, I saw two days ago in Harrogate she still sounded absolutely brilliant
When I hear other versions of this , I always come back and listen to this version. Love it.
What a fantastic version of the brilliant Bob Dylan song ....keep on rocking Elkie
She should of been a superstar so underrated
I agree this is the best version and also my favourite song of all time. She deserves so much more recognition. Saw her play the Stables In Wavendon last night - she’s phenomenal. Her rendition of this gave me goosebumps! ❤
Some years back the US singer Julie Felix went to see Elkie in concert and said she loved Elkie’s version of this Dylan song
Just say "Thanks again BOB". He wrote this for all to sing and enjoy...
Very understated lady , brilliant power and range X thank you Elkie xxx
Best version of this song
This for me is the best version.
Ellie is THE voice.......
Dazzlingly understated talent...she gets all the recognition she needs just hearing herself...
Went to see Elkie in Preston last night Brilliant what a singer
seen her in brghton in july for a 72 year old women she rocked the place
always loved Elkie......fantastic singer!
Unbeleivable. Without doubt the best version of such a great song.
Has to be the best version of this song x
Can't agree more!
Definitely.
You've heard the rest now listen to the BEST.
BEST VERSION !!!!
+Jackie1957able No, the best version is by the man himself - Bob Dylan...
Obviously your opinion, myself says Elkie
Well of course it's my opinion, I wouldn't give someone elses...
If you read correctly you will see I wrote OBVIOUSLY. I prefer The Version by Elkie's version as she can sing. Dylan was not known for his vocal ability. Obviously my opinion.
Simply brilliant, love you Elkie Brooks xxx
Elkie - You are the BEST - just keep going gal!
THE best version of this song and so hard to find. I find this more moving than Adele's version
She did a mindblowing live version of this on Radio 2 in the UK a couple of years ago that made Adele sound very average. Unbelievable voice in her mid 70's
I heard it , it was great. But have never been able to find it again 😞☹️
@@Jake-oc5xz It was on you tube but the good old BBC pulled it when they brought out "BBC Radio 2 The Piano Room 2019" on which it features.
Same here. Couldn't beleive it was taken down. Glad its back up, where can I get a copy incase it happens again? One of my favourite songs of all time.
I luv this woman lately...
Wow !!!!! what a voice , amazing.
Ellie your blessed with that voice and you've blown me away
Yip I agree best version
Best version ever
Elkie brook is great voice
I went to see her at Gawsworth Hall a few years ago she was magnificent !!
Oh my God ..... Elkie loves that sexy husky voice .....Just beautiful !
Yes , amazing.
So emotional
Passion and feeling's Elkie......Bob Dillian song 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🌹🌹
So so good
Just the best.
So sublime
Beautiful song. Thank you. You know i will never stop loving and wanting you. But i have to find a way to stop hurting. If i could do that without leaving you, i would be so happy. I guess i am greedy, wanting your love and wanting my self esteem both !!!
Elkie Brooks...👌❤️
Awesome and so. So very.. More some
wow!!
Love it !!!!
Who's Adele???
Female Bob Dylan,she is up there with him.
When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
Oh, I hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I will never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong
I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue
And I'd go crawling down the avenue
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love
The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet
I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of this Earth for you
To make you feel my love, oh yes
To make you feel my love
No other version even comes close
wow. even adele can't sing this good!
agree totally.
Agreed.
Forever good!!!

Elkie, unlike Adele, doesn't oversing.

@@popazz1 Obviously Humphrey Lyttelton would have dissagreed with you about Elkie singing Jazz.
That's a voice
Great version Elkie! I have done a remake of this song as well, please check it out when you get a chance :)
Garth Brooks version is my favorite
Elkie Brooks is MY favorite .
Elkie's version for me.
Elkie Brooks version is the best.
Adele, written by Bob Dylan, really
Yes written by Bob Dylan. Best version here!
@@Jake-oc5xz l totally agree 👍
imo I think Rebecca fergusons is the best ,though adele and elkes versions are exceptional ,bob Dylan must be honoured to have 3 fantastic versions of his song ,
Elkie's version is the best . IMO
And I thought Adelle was good
😜
N. V.
The best version of this is by Bonnie Raitt .
Elkie has the better voice.
+Jackie1957able I think everyone has their own favourite version of this . This one is a bit to eer'rock' for me . I prefer.Bonnie and a young artist called Louise Setara
. Definately cant rule out Garth Brooks either xxx
Sorry , I still prefer Elkie's vocal.
this is the best version ever!! End of!!
A Jew singing the lyrics of another Jew (Bob Dylan)
So , what’s your point.
And?
sounds like Bonnie Tyler a bit
Elkie Brooks was singing way before Tyler, Tyler is only a studio artist. Elkie Brooks sounds great studio and live singer. Elkie is a way better singer.
Elkie Brooks is the whole package , Rock, Blues, Jazz. Tyler tried to copy Elkie.Tyler is just Pop .
Elkie Brooks can sing much better.
Why has she pushed him out of the canoe?
No no no no
Chris Rea is better 😬
I didn't think he did a cover of this song....
he dident
But he didn't write it did he?
No but he is better
Laurence kite SVENSK STOLT is a sad troll
No Chris Rea is better
Wow
