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.
Bob Dylan left the most amazing woman he could have had. She took care of him and loved him unconditionally. Diamonds & Rust said it all.
You are so right.
Totally agree! It was his loss.
It happens so many times !
To too many women
I happen to own the original LP ! It rings as true now as it did so long ago
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.
❤️
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 🤣
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 🌹💗🌹
Tell it like it is, baby. She was the best thing that ever happened to Bob Dylan, I'm sure. Love this song.
This is one of those songs I wish never ended! I could listen to this song over and over daily.
Some days, I do.
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.
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.
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.
You're husband was blessed to have you for his wife Beverly. 🙂
Joan bares her soul in this song. Beautiful vocals and words.
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.
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 ???????
“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 RUclips 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 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.
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.”
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 ! ...
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❤❤❤
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. 👏
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

Devastating poetry for love unfulfulled. Love you Joan Baez!
"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.
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.
Please google "The boy who ran away from chemotherapy". No matter what type of cancer it is, it's not too late. ruclips.net/video/Eac7zJi_rDc/видео.html
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 RUclips 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.
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!
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...
One of the most beautiful love songs I've ever heard.
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"?
@@gauravchhoker19 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 😊
@@gauravchhoker19 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 am an Italian teacher, I often offer to my children Joan Baez to listen... It is a tendresse for their young souls
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
Probably the most perfect love song from the 70s - let it play on repeat for all time.
I agree. 🇨🇦
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.
Whoever you are and whatever your age, style and class seem to be a part of you. Stay well and have a really good life.
@@bartbaxter7630 Thank you, and you as well!
Its worth while to look back to the 60s and 70s
You should also look up her sister, Mimi, and her husband Richard Farina, a guy so talented Dylan was jealous. Amazing family.
@@MrRonk55 Thank you for information. We miss such gentle people nowadays….
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!
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)
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.
Wonder if Joan ever married, do you know.
I love this song.
I am crying now.
Why do I mourn the loss of this era?
I mourn the loss of my youth.
Grammathia tenho o mesmo sentimento que você
We all grow older, but this song will bring back some of your best memories.
I also.
I think we who where like me just to understand Bob D.as Joan Baez.we started we maybe hoped but still we have for some years hopefully a few good memos.as evil a some are as sad hundreds thousands millions died hope it will be better is THERE EVER yes he was a vagabond she a born Madonna yes as the mother tries to safe the child and her believe gave her this strength to answer him so honest bare her soul this strength and he oh well surmise arrogants and wistfully " ashamed" no way to apologise.him it.KARIN
We? :)
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"
This is the way is song should sound, and a voice should sing. Perfect song. Nothing will ever be any better than this.
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 ❤

@@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.
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 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
Mr. Dylan blew it when he let this lady go. This album deserved a Grammy, and I am glad I actually got to tell Joan Baez this during a phone interview a decade or so ago.
Wow, you did????

If this is Joan Baez, you have been one of my inspirations for most of my life.
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 RUclips 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.
Got it on repeat. Once is never enough with a Joan Baez record.
This song opens small breaks in my heart.
Hi Jaz💐💐
Better have someone take a look at that.
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...
Quelle voix magnifique et quel talent dans l' Ecriture et la Musique...
Je ne m' en lasse pas....elle remplit mon coeur de nostalgie...
Hauntingly beautiful...
@@annickcavelier4333 Yes, shivers! That is a good way to say how it makes me feel! Thank you!
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 RUclips 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.
I agree
It is pure poetry by Joan Baez and it is not lousy at all.
Bless her beautiful soul. She sits at the top of my list of the best female vocalists ever. Close to her, is Judith Durham.
How fortunate some of us are to have lived when a lot of music was enduring art. Great music will never die.
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!!
I was young back then ...it was a lovely time ❤️
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.
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
This song is so VERY haunting and beautiful because her pain was so VERY heartbreaking!!!

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..
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.
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.
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
This song is flawless. Her voice, her lyrics, her guitar. She mostly did covers, but this is some great songwriting by her here.
Amazing
Como te decia tu decias porque tan triste asi me gusta y ahora te canto a ti i tristeza eres tu al 100por ciento olvide todo porqque tu estas alli
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
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 !!!
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.
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 ;)

My class 8 class-teacher sat with us on the stairwell in the corridor in front of our classroom, and talked about Joan Baez and how we should hear her too (since we were familiar with Bob Dylan by then). Then she took my guitar and played us a couple lines. And these little "informative meetings" happened a few times every week. In between classes, during recess. (This was around 2010). I miss you, Ms. Shauli, 8C, Auxilium Convent Bandel :)
This is timeless and I can listen to it over and over again

This is my absolute favorite Joan Baez song. So beautiful.
Joan has the voice of an angel, and sang that song from the depth of her soul. They sure deeply cared for each other, but wanted to see if the grass grew more greener elsewhere, by the time they found out that it didn't, it was all too late.....the magic had gone!
Hello Margaret, How are you doing?

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.
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!
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.
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
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.
Achingly poignant and gorgeous. Joan Baez -- what an American treasure!!!
Wow - this is even better than I remembered - perhaps I'm listening with "new ears".
+Leonard Dixon I feel the same..I don't remember this having such an effect on me...I have new ears as well, a new heart....well not so new..a bit damaged all these years later. I cried throughout ..memories brought back..some good ..some not so grand...it's life..you just can't imagine how your life would turn..so..regrets...loss..ideals..all changing..all the time..at any rate..I am glad that I found this song after so many years..All vinyl gone..wore many a record out..Thank you for sharing...Laurel
+Leonard Dixon Wow, this affected me the same way. Maybe being older, hearing the song and seeing the photographs of the legends when they were young has something to do with it. So much time gone, where has life dropped us now? Some things not so good. I've already paid, too.
thanks for the videos especially with captions and soccer and music
+jumpingkokane I'm listening to this on my smartphone and I recall in the 1970s I was in college and we got into the first row general admission all three of us have hearing loss and one is deaf one of us was interpreting for our friend who is deaf and Joan part way through the concert gave a rose to our friend ..?
so touching!
+Leonard Dixon It is ...great memories of her music in the 60s ...and those who played it for me into the small hours!
"My poetry was lousy you said." Well, she wrote one utterly superb song. And the music, so exquisitely beautiful. And her voice...makes chills go up my spine.
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.
@@deepblueinthedark9856 He was just telling the truth! Ever heard that song of hers with the refrain " love is a pain in the ass"?
@@linshanhsiang Still , he could have been more diplomatic , and kind … Like maybe suggesting how to improve the work . Easy solution .
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❤❤❤❤
I love how this song *flows*.
Unbelievable. This is a river, not a song.

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 RUclips today.
Shes great because of mgs5
@@Iced_falcon Quiet is the only “she” if you want to talking about mgls5. Sorry Joan !
Naive as I am, I never knew this wasn't written by Judas Priest. Heard this version last week and almost cried. Amazingly beautiful beyond words.
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”.
First listened to this song when I was 15 and loved the melody. But now it's making me cry.
What a lovely song to discover in my 73rd year! And to hear that bell-like voice so clearly again. Wonderful!
Quiero saber quien es esa persona que me a dicho que me he metido en su cuenta esa persona que me escriba si tien verguenza
What a fantasic post! I'm only sixty but sometimes you feel like you've seen and heard it all and then life gives you one of these wonderful surprises!
I seem to be about a year older than you and I think I have loved Joan Baez for at least 50 of them.
Just one of her masterpieces, unforgettable.
The melody alone gives me chills, add the instrumentation and the voice, and it's almost too much. SOOO beautiful.
The most beautiful love song ever written in my opinion ❤️
una de las canciones mas bellas de JOAN BAEZ, por su voz, su musica y su letra, magistral........no se repetira y menos en estos tiempos de basura manipulacion y mentira
He won a Noble Price..
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and sung............
Hi Eliza💐💐
Among a million songs, or so, I've listened to over many decades (I'm 71), this might be my favorite of them all. And all I really even care about is Art! And, in it's many forms.
The first time I heard this song was in 1979 in Casablanca, Morocco. At this point, I was a senior in high school in a small podunk town about 200 miles away from Casablanca. Besides my committed love for Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Cat Stevens, Track and Field -especially long-distance running- was my life. In school, my favorite class was English. and after three years of immersing myself in the language, I was somewhat pretty good at understanding spoken English. I was a kid who did not get allowance money, or had a job but managed to save for important needs, and at this period in my life, I desperately needed some good running shoes for competing, however, the clothing shops in the small town where I lived had only "Saroukh Brand" plastic generic sneakers that stunk the minute you put them on. Not finding the right pair of competition-level shoes, I grabbed the meager savings I had and took the overnight train in the "Quatrième Classe" (the lowest economic class in the rear car with the chickens and goats) to the big city. After a few inquiries on where to find good running shoes in the largest city in Morocco, I was led to Souk Smat, a flea market of a sort in the old Medina of Casablanca. Zigzagging between the droves of people from one stall to the next, I finally hit the jackpot of the everything-abroad shop as if I literally stumbled on heaven. This shop specialized in imported black market items from the US and Europe. There was running gear just like what the Track and Field stars (Lasse Viren, Frank Shorter, Henry Rono, to name a few who adorned my room walls) wore, all kinds of Levis Blue Jeans, hip sunglasses, some second-hand stuff as well, etc, in short, the coolest stuff ever for an insignificant kid from a Middle-of-Nowhere town. As I was haggling with the shopkeeper over these incredible Nike sneakers, I saw a Joan Baez album that I have never seen before with Baez in her iconic straw hat picture facing me in the corner of the tiny shop. My focus immediately shifted to "The Best Of Joan C. Baez" vinyl album, I asked the seemingly annoyed shopkeeper to play a couple of songs from the album for me before I bought it. From the minute the first song (Diamonds And Rust) started playing, I just lost it, and by the time "Prison Trilogy" song hit, I was sobbing in a trance-like fashion, not worrying about the gathered mesmerized crowd surrounding me or the shopkeeper. I will never forget that shop or that moment, it was like a freight train of emotions hit me at a vulnerable time with the most sincere words and music that only The Queen of Folk in her prime could create. I skipped the shoes, gave the shopkeeper all the money I had, and lingered on an empty stomach for hours (with my new-found treasure underarm) in the fascinating boulevards of Casablanca until the past-midnight train ride so I could easily bunk the train for nearly 200 miles by getting off the train at almost every town and village and getting back on the last train car that the ticket inspector had just visited. Years later I eventually immigrated to the USA, officially named myself Dylan after his Bobness, and had a great family, etc. I saw Bob Dylan, and Joan Baez many times in concerts, and my innocent youth promise, decades ago, was to meet Bob Dylan in person (Dylan is my love, my idol, my god and guru. Sorry Joan), but after many crazy attempts, I doubt that I will ever fulfill that dream. On the contrary, I have met Joan Baez in person twice; once backstage at a concert in Denver where I sang "Jari Ya Hamouda" with her, and once one evening on August 2, 1996, in the woods of Poudre Canyon in the Rocky Mountains near a small motel where she was staying during a very small outdoor concert at the Mishawaka Amphitheatre in Bellvue, Colorado. When we lived in Colorado Springs, My French friend Fabien LOEWENGUTH, who is also a big fan of Joan Baez, and I took the 4-hour drive with much anticipation to see Joan Baez, and after getting lost for a bit, we eventually made it in the nick of time, that concert was very low-key and just outstanding, especially being in the middle of the mountains, there were not many people, which made it fantastic for all the attendees and very intimate being very close to Joan Baez. I do not remember the songs she played, but the set was dreamy with a few songs from the Play Me Backwards album. Mid-concert, it started raining lightly and despite that, Joan insisted on playing until "it starts sparking" she said. Sure enough, the thunderous rain started sparking the electric cables, at which point the concert came to a frantic halt and everyone scattered for safety. Joan and the band run uphill to the motel where they were staying, but the hardcore devotees huddled around hoping for a sign from the Queen, however after an hour or so of relentless rain everyone left. Fabien kept insisting that we should also leave especially after the innkeeper kept pestering us and that we still had 4 hours of driving back home in severe weather conditions. I had brought a few books and about 40 or so sleeves from my collection of Joan Baez's official and non-official bootleg CDs with me just in case, and refused to leave without at least having her autograph them. A few minutes passed when the innkeeper burst from the gate threatening to call the sheriff's office if we didn't leave immediately, I was in dismay when I sprung and told him that I was not leaving unless he took Joan Baez's books and CD jackets to her, he agreed to do so, and I pulled my pen and wrote "you mean so much to the oppressed and the politically persecuted people of the world" and signed it "dylan" on the cover of the album that contains "Natalya Gorbanevskaya", a song about a Russian dissident who later became a close friend to Joan (I can't remember the album's title now). A long time went by and the rain had stopped, I thought, what a big mistake I made? I will never see my collection back. To my surprise, not only I got everything back, but the Queen of Folk herself brought them back with all humility, barefoot in a blue jeans shirt and shorts, and above all with the hugest welcoming smile that I have seen on Joan Baez. I was about to faint when she asked "Who is this Dylan?" Very funny I thought (Tears are rolling in my eyes as I am typing this now). Among the things I sent with the innkeeper was a photograph of me and Joan Baez from my backstage visit with her the year prior that my wife took, so she mentioned that she remembered me well and my great singing, I told her that I had two choices to name myself, either Dylan or Gandhi, and that my wife preferred Dylan, and also that if I were a woman, I would have named myself Joan or Baez, she thought that I should have gone with Gandhi. My friend Fabien joined us, and we took pictures and talked for what seemed an eternity about everything that mattered. She asked about my connection with Gandhi, about the Human Rights situation in Morocco, and was genuinely interested in us than just a fan-and-idol relationship. It was getting dark by now, we gave each other hugs and left, me with joy, sadness, and tears. That was an experience of a lifetime, that only confirms my belief in Joan Baez as an incredible human being. Some months later, Joan Baez went to sing in Morocco for the first time, and I am convinced it was because of that encounter. My friends in Morocco don't believe that I had anything to do with it, of course not! Love to you Joan, and may stay forever young.
Remember this if you remember nothing else in life. The person who cares the least in any relationship has all the power.

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
One of my all time favourites by Joan. Her voice is haunting.
And it makes it even more precious since we know who she is singing about and what emotions he evoked in her fearless soul.
A gorgeous, transcendent requiem for her relationship with Dylan.
Im 56. Grew up to my dad playing dylan, baez and buffy st. Marie, among others. He still has all the original LPs. I took him to see Dylan 3 years ago for his 75th birthday. Im so grateful he's still in my life. And the worlds my dad has opened for me. That's what music does for me too. Thanks Daddy.
My uncle brought a woman to our home an she took my guitar and played this song. I've loved it since. I was 12 yrs old.
