holy shit, you can feel the energy and the optimism of that generation here. The tangible and absolute faith they had in the power of the soul over the forces of old and evil. If only we had a shade of that now.
there was madness in any direction at any hour, you could strike sparks anywhere, there was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we where doing was right and we were winning. that i think was the handle, that sense of inevitable victory of the forces of old and evil, not in any mean or military sense we didn’t need that, our energy would simply prevail. we had all the momentum, riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. so now less that five years later you can go up on a steep hill in las vegas and look west and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high watermark, that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.
Yes, with a socially conscious youth movement protesting our futile involvement in the Vietnam War during a time when we were “old enough to fight (and die) but not to vote.” Joan Baez was one of our trumpeting angels for peace and love.
I haven't forgotten that in the Iraq invasion the USA didn't count the Iraqi dead. Perhaps this song tell you why. In Vietnam the public could see what their armies were doing on their behalf. And were horrified. Those who want to fight wars don't want the public to know what they are actually doing.
Everyone in the audience is so intensely focused on her words and music. Amazing how she does so much with so little - no band or anything, just an acoustic guitar and her voice. True Folk music legend
I saw Bob Dylan sing this song on tv (black & white tv) in 1964 when I was 14 years old. I could not believe what I was hearing. Every other song on tv or radio was about surfing, cars or girls.
I'm probably going to get hated for this, but for me, Dylan is an amazing songwriter, but other people perform his songs better. Can't be great at everything I suppose.
@@terencethomas7599 that was very common then. Look at Lord Randall vs Hard Rain gonna fall. Take common melodies and structures and make your own. I think wagon wheel is a duplication of that and the basement tapes.
What an amazing Lady. Not only a fantastic singer, musician and Songwriter, but a peace and non violence campaigner. She has my eternal respect. such a shame she has retired from live performance. I count myself lucky to have seen her almost 20 years ago now.
nancy bento Same her. We saw her in 67. We were both 16 my best friend Ralph & I.I had just gotten my Volkswagen & I asked Ralph's parents if he could go with me & they were so pleased that I asked that they asked me to spend the night since I did not live in the district of my High School etc. They both were executives his dad was a lawyer and his mother was a administrator at a Hospital. And very protective of Ralph almost in prison to some extent LOL. They were going back to Cincinnati to visit family and friends for a week. And Ralph would be alone with the housekeeper who was like family her name was Edna very nice old lady. His dad called my dad and ask for permission for me to spend the week with Ralph. My parents had met Ralph and felt sorry for him and my dad said yes. I'll keep tabs on them don't worry have a nice time blah blah blah. Well the night after the concert we stayed up till 3 a.m. we were talkin and bedroom couldn't sleep and then he asked me do you like wine and I said yeah I really do. I came from a long line of wine drinkers Western Europeans French Spanish Portuguese blah blah blah. We drank a whole bottle of merlot with cheese and crackers and fruit. We did not want to wake up the housekeeper she slept like a log anyway and her bedroom was on the other side of the house somewhat secluded. We had a blast I brought a lot of my records over and my record player. So we listen to The Beatles The Bee Gees and of course our Joanie. Take care 😷 Arnold
I saw Joan Baez perform at the Albert Hall in 1965, I was seated on stage behind her. With a very dear friend, it had a profound effect on me then and that remains to this day 55 years on! Wonderful voice and sense of performance, without fuss.
Missing my mom..passed away today (5th/6th june 2022) ..she used to play joan baez on a grundig player wen we were kids.. Thanks joan for such songs🎵🙏💚
@cathyphegley7848f thanks Cathy..yes some days I miss her presence lots..actually I dreamt of her just 2 nights ago.. it was a v real kind of dream in which she n i are at some crossing ..my sister is across d road when my mom suddenly kind of collapses in my arms. I call my sis to come fast..see mom passes in a second. I'm actually not sad or something instead i tel sis excitedly "see she passed so smoothly" or something.! N I see up a sky with stars. Just then mom revives! Then I woke up. I believe it meant ther is no real death just the body is shed.💚
Never has an old song needed so much airing...share every version of this. My generation was brought up on Dylan Baez at al.....we question the need for weapons in the name of God..please send this song to World Leaders....
This Inspired, timeless song illustrates the utter futility of Wars, fought only for power, profit, and greed. In the main, the people that engineer them never suffer!!!!! its always ordinary people of whatever nation, or creed that do the fighting and dying, at the behest of the few. WHEN will we ever learn.? Ex British Army Paratrooper.
Like Dylan, and in his behalf, Joanie's a gift from God. Without her (and perhaps Peter Paul and Mary), a generation would have had no voice and Dylan's words would lie brilliantly but tragically still on some library shelf. She was the perfect messenger, breathing life and heart into his work. We could listen to it. Luky timing, lucky for us all. Thanks Joanie.
she sings well in spanish also. i like a song she does bout a set to die in a mexican prison for killing his wife and a guy having sex and killed them both. way she sang u kinda feel sorry for the guy.
Joan's Crystal clear voice interprets Dylans poetic genius on so many levels! I wonder if he appreciates how much emotion is behind her wonderful Gift.
When I met her I was 16 and she was 36 years old. It was at a concert in Alicante, Spain. I had just bought an album from her, Farewell, Angelina. Since then I am in love with her. Every time I watch a video of her or listen to her voice I get excited. I will never forgive you for living so far away from me, I will never forgive you for being 20 years older than me, I will never forgive you for not crossing my street, I will never forgive you for not being able to smell your hair ... never, but I can not stop loving you . Your eyes, your lips, your smile ... your way of understanding life, your songs, your lyrics ... your life. How I would have liked to be part of your life. You are beautiful on the outside and inside. I love you. I love you so much.
Any man would fall in love with Joanie! She was just gorgeous and exotic! Not to mention talented, smart and fearless in her quest for Justice and Peace; this from a 73 year old guy who grew up in the 60's and was mesmerized by her other-worldly voice. God Bless Joan Baez.......Charlie O, Boston
@@MaryPaulin I've been thinking about this song as well, and have wanted to ask who's side is God on!??? People are so quick to forget that there are innocent victims on both sides, in all ears! 💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏

Do yourself a favour. Personally, I think Joan Baez is one of the best musicians ever. However, please google And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda,and see what you think of it as an antiwar song. Written as a tribute to the Australian and New Zealand service men and women who offered their lives, so that today we have the country that currently exists. 😊
@@dennispicone6801 I've listened to it many,many times. Still think it's an antiwar song. Liam Clancy does a great job with it too. Makes one ponder the question, is there a better way to solve the problems of the world? 🥺
@@jeanneobrien7381 has to be. Over a period of time, war definitely hasn't worked. So that tells people who take time out, to ponder things that there must be an easier way. 😁

That anyone is confused by the song (a masterpiece by any standard) is a commentary of education is this country, and how polarized (and ignorant) many among us have become. The Nobel Prize committee got it right, and yes, Joan Baez deserves some credit for Dylan's success, for breathing life and beauty into his music and driving the lyrics home, for generations to appreciate. His music measures us in a way, he'll always be a canary in our coal mine.
My 2 little boys were having a hard time being calm & peaceful in the backseat while I drove and I was getting so frustrated. I turned on her songs and they instantly got still & quiet. My 5 yr fell asleep.🧚♀️💜🌌
share this with the religious right....they're the ones who believe god is on their side...powerful song, powerful voice! I remember hearing this back in the 1960's...
Whishing you the best. I will not quit praying for you two and all anybobody to thank Him for what you have done. God blesses you two, God blesses each one of you all. May He be always at your sides. Amen
Best female singer in the world since Piaf at that time without a doubt.I am an old guy so I just loved her so.Yet she was totally eclipsed by the genius of Bob Dylan and if you watch the biopics you will see it in her face and heart.Good days indeed.The best of the best and we never forget.
i don't know how many times i've listened to this song, but i can never get tired of it. Thank you TimeToCastAwayStones :) oh btw, hunter s. thompson brought me here.
Listening to this song is a transcendental experience. It makes every molecule of my being vibrate with pleasure. I don't know how she does it, it's like a combination of her voice and the song itself, which is such a great effort from Dylan. He really is one of the greatest songwriters to have ever lived. Boots of Spanish leather is another one of my favourites. I also wanted to insert a snide remark about G.O.D. but the songs says it better than I ever could.
Beautifully put. Joan's singing is fabulous - I have loved her singing since I first heard her back in the 60's. - Nanci Griffith also does a great version of "Boots of Spanish Leather."
TREVOR MCGAUGHRAN wow, my other favourite. I'm no music buff, but these two really touch me on a deep level. Loreena Mckennitt's book of secrets would be another perennial favourite
Christian Koncz I am just proud to live in the same country as she does, and as Dylan does. And I love the sentiments expressed, by his words, by her singing of them. Truth is a rare and valuable commodity; probably it cannot be rightly considered a commodity.
“You - special, miraculous, unrepeatable, fragile, fearful,tender,lost,sparking ruby emerald jewel, rainbow splendor person. IT’S UP TO YOU. Would it embarrass you very much if I were to tell you that I love you?” This is what Joan Baez answered once when asked on what to do to make ours a better world to live. Pure poetry, pure wisdom, pure kindness. Joan Baez, a bodhisattva among us ,knows how to touch the best we whatsoever have in our hearts and souls. Her voice is as powerful, tender ,warm and truthful as ever. Love and Gratitude, from Brasil
Goosebumps 🙏🎶 I don't think anyone compares to Joan... our school music teacher wld make us sing this n other songs but she never made us hear Joan baez first!!! Had she I wld have taken up singing in college 😍
Notice how deferential the audience is, it’s the 60’s remember. Not like now, where people are generally devoid of manners. I loved the comment by Noam Chomsky, “ Now I have become death, the destroyer of Worlds “ said by the scientist Robert Oppenheimer, after the first Atomic Test at “ Los Alamos” . God bless Joan Baez, for her rendition of the Bob Dylan anti war classic “ With God on our side” May she live a long life, and continue to inspire others. One final point, she should have shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Bob Dylan.
Always admired her and what a beautiful voice. I miss folk music and thinking people who had real causes and good motives. Now what do we have ? All that talent on the left inspiring people with messages of hope and love. The left has left us and we have nothing to replace it with. Now its just anger .
After Trump's drone assassination, he said "I truly believe we have God on our side.." I immediately thought of Joanie's song of the same name. Just re-listened to it. Was on the verge of tears. It's way more powerful than I remembered.
I never heard this song before but I knew immediately that it was a Dylan song because it sounds typical Dylan. Beauty combined with wisdom and poetry presented in a very simple way with the character of a folk song. Beautiful. I loved it. Brilliantly sung as always by the beautiful angelic Joan Baez.
it was originally Written by Dominic Behan ripped off by Bob Dylan Liam Clancy version of the Patriot game is probably the best and sticks to the original lyrics
Très grande dame qui devrait nous amener à réfléchir et nous remettre en question surtout en cette période troublé que nous traversons grand respect pour elle

She sure does! She's a wonderful, talented, and beautiful woman. I admire her so much!
LovelyMiss90 Yeah even in her old age she’s incredibly graceful and beautiful
The song was actually written and first performed by Bob Dylan. Joan's voice, however, is far more pleasant . . . and understandable.
Deserves it a lot more than Dylan did thsts for damn sure.
In 2023, this song is more important than in the past 30 years.
If God's on our side, he'll stop this war.
This s without doubt one of the greatest songs ever written.
She is mesmerizing. Her contact with the audience never broke. And her classy exit like an angel leaving. Truer words were never sung.

Notice how deferential the audience is, it’s the 60’s remember. Not like now, where people are generally devoid of manners. I loved the comment by Noam Chomsky, “ Now I have become death, the destroyer of Worlds “ said by the scientist Robert Oppenheimer, after the first Atomic Test at “ Los Alamos” .
God bless Joan Baez, for her rendition of the Bob Dylan anti war classic “ With God on our side”
May she live a long life, and continue to inspire others.
One final point, she should have shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Bob Dylan.
What a haunting sign throughout decades ...
Pure ageless voice.
I give the audience the award for being in the here and now.
And not picking up their cell phones.
there were no cell phones.
Daniel: Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I'm sure you realize this was filmed in 1966, long before the cellular phone of today existed?
Great voice, beautiful lady , sings some great songs 🎵
Always admired her and what a beautiful voice. I miss folk music and thinking people who had real causes and good motives. Now what do we have ? All that talent on the left inspiring people with messages of hope and love. The left has left us and we have nothing to replace it with. Now its just anger .
Thank you Dylan, again.
Dylan was nothing compared to Joan Baez.
@@stevemack60 Only a fool can make a comment like that. You compare apples with pears.
Dylan and Baez are both amazing but Dylan is on another level come on now
This is a great song and Joan Baez changed my beliefs.
Fantastic song sung with feeling.
I first heard Joan Baez in 1966 and I have loved that voice ever since. It still makes my heart ache.
Ddcfff and his wife will be return from the same time for the rest of his family is in your 9
Fffff is a great way for the kids and the kids
This song is timeless, however, considering Ukraine we need this song more than ever.
I've learned to hate Russians all through my whole life.
After Trump's drone assassination, he said "I truly believe we have God on our side.." I immediately thought of Joanie's song of the same name. Just re-listened to it. Was on the verge of tears. It's way more powerful than I remembered.
@xfnhc Merci ;) From America with total gratitude. ;)
Dont you mean obama?
Obama is much more pro war than Trump. Stop the nonsense
Bob wrote it
Bob was a genius and Joan sang like a angel.
Such a haunting and beautiful voice...
Yes.Beautiful voice.
So brilliant, so beautiful, so caring, so shy ... Oh boy!
I never heard this song before but I knew immediately that it was a Dylan song because it sounds typical Dylan. Beauty combined with wisdom and poetry presented in a very simple way with the character of a folk song. Beautiful. I loved it. Brilliantly sung as always by the beautiful angelic Joan Baez.
it was originally Written by Dominic Behan ripped off by Bob Dylan Liam Clancy version of the Patriot game is probably the best and sticks to the original lyrics

Thanks for the info
@@markilleen4027 The words are Dylan's. Folk music typically copied melodies of popular songs; it was common.
Très grande dame qui devrait nous amener à réfléchir et nous remettre en question surtout en cette période troublé que nous traversons
grand respect pour elle
Saw Joan Baez in Glasgow her voice has a pure tone hope she comes back.
I observe Memorial Day listening to this.
Grande, Grandissima...❤
If we're on God's side, WE'LL stop the next war.
I will always love Joan Baez
I'm still in love with her!
I used to be able to sing this song, poorly, mind you. I learned all the words and used it as a lullaby.
always awesome....if we would just stop and listen..........
beautiful
love to joan...that is an amazing voice singing a beautiful message
Beautiful, very beautiful song!!!! Thanks, thanks very much!!!!
"You'll have to decide.... If Judas Iscariot had God on his side." This is the absolute ultimate Bob Dylan comment, made by his most beautiful muse.
J'adore le timbre de cette voix de soprano qui excelle dans le folk song.
