Pretty sure Bob's not really reading these, but then again, who thought he'd cover Freind of The Devil as his last set song the other nights last weekend? Nobody can figure out this Bob guy, he just stays busy being born.... am I right?

Best Bob Dylan album. When this came out in 1965 it was revolutionary. I was a teenager and we were all playing this album. Loved the Beatles, but Dylan was the best songwriter.
I was a late-comer to Dylan. This was my first Dylan album. I got it back around 1975 or 76, round the time I graduated high school. By the time I listened to the entire album I was amazed. I never heard such incredible writing. It struck me as extremely poetic, metaphoric, and in a strange sort of way almost mathematical. Without question the best writer out there. I was a devout Dylan fan from then on.
@@WitchidWitchid I was 17 when the first album came out. The second made me a believer. And these hits -- especially this album -- just kept on coming. And still do. I'm way down the road from 17, and Bob Dylan is still the man. What a privilege to be around as he kept on rolling.
That awkward moment when your mother sends back all your invitations and your father to your sister he explains that you're tired of yourself and all of your creations. 😬
Love it. Dylan just opens his songs so...I don't know how to put it. Just wow. Always comes out of left field but somehow hits the nail on the head in an abstract way.
Love Dylan but this album is my fave. The groove on all the tracks is sublime. Imagine being John, Paul, Mick, Keith, Brian and hearing this album. They changed their focus instantly.
For people who don’t like this album. Fun Fact: this influenced the Beatles to make Rubber Soul which influenced Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys to write Pet Sounds, which influenced Paul McCartney to make Sgt Peppers.
Yep one thing just leads to another. Love every single one of these bands, specifically each one of these albums. Gotta love musical history anyway hope anyone enjoys the legacy these albums leave behind, lots of it can still be heard today.
God bless you, JoyT. It's always gratifying to this lifelong Dylan fan to hear from young fans bc it's you who will keep these masterpieces alive. I believe that 200 years from now, Bob's songs will still be listened to and loved.
Hey,you said you are 23 and I'm just 15 and fortunate enough to have discerned Bob Dylan thanks to Gramps,who though ain't no more but it's really evocative to me how he used to play the radio on and step it to Dylan when I was young. I know I owe him one for having me make acquaintance with such a peerless musician.
Joy T, I was turned on to Bob in "sleep-away" camp when I was 12 in 1977. My counselor(s) listened to him, Tull, Grateful Dead, and some others. I fell in love with Bob Dylan the first time I heard him. I think it was Like A Rolling Stone. That's a great song, but darn near every song he's written is great. He is by far, my favorite artist in all of humanity. He was kissed by God himself. He's the definition of Americana. He's Bob Dylan, for cryin' out loud! :) Just the fact that you, at 23, say he's you're favorite lends credence to the definition of timeless. Mozart would have loved him, and that kid who will be born in 150 years will think he's the hottest thing since, well, whomever.
I'm 18 years old and I can't stop listening this fuckin' album. It's just like listening Shakespeare with a guitar. Ah no, Bob is better! It's too good, like a drug, can someone tell me please how to stop?
Some people say this is one of Bobs more forgettable tunes and some even say it’s one of the weaker songs off this magnificent album. I think they’re all wrong! This song is just pure bliss and Bobs timing along with the background instruments is flawless.
@@MSYNGWIE12 In one interview he seemed to suggest Queen Jane was himself. I feel it fits, considering his followers' disillusionment with him is a common theme.
This is my favorite Dylan album, and although I would never skip QJA, I never found it super relatable. Actually the only track I skip with any sort of regularity is the title track, because sometimes I am not in the mood for a siren whistle. This, despite the fact that as a teenager, I found the use in this album so hilarious and appropriate that I ordered such a whistle myself. This past month, I have grown more attached to the song. I love how the instruments harmonize, especially during the big solo halfway through the track. I can't even audially identify everything going on there, and that has always been a little bit of, I don't know, intrigue for me with Bob's songs. Not knowing how they make the sound in certain tracks. Also I recently found the lyrics more relatable. Pushing 40 years old, and losing all but one of those friendships I maintained for 20+ years, leaves me feeling slightly bitter, if not disenchanted exactly. But I can sympathize with the man.
actually #4 on the original 2003 top 500 list. The 2020 update isn't even worth talking about lol but , to me, the 2003/12 ones made sense. atleast 2 dylan records in the top 10, (#4 and #9) #9 being Blonde on Blonde of course.
@@42awww it was #14 actually but Bringing It All Back Home was #31 so basically he and The Beatles dominated that list, especially the top 40. I do think The Doors (ranked at #42 on original 2003 and 2012 lists) should've been in the top 30 atleast.
And so many harmonica players say he sucks at it, but just listen to how much expression that solo has, how booming and powerful it is! Technique is not everything, music is not a math olympics, it's an expression of the human soul.
Sometimes I try to decide which is Dylan’s best song where music, lyrics, voice and harmonica blend together in sheer spine-tingling perfection - and just when I think I’ve finally decided along comes a masterpiece such as this!
The most underrated Dylan song barr none. The bridge between Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde. 3 albums, 34 songs and 14 months which changed modern music forever.
I was in high school in my first rock band when this came out, and I was always blown out at Dylan's songs, wondering where on Earth they were coming from. Now 70, I understand so much more, and marvel at the insight he had at so young an age. Thanks, Bob, for all you give us, you make us stop and think about what we are doing.
This was our song. I miss you so much. Happy Birthday Debbie Sue Ferguson. My big sister. You left this world way too soon and i would give anything to go and see you "when you want somebody you dont have to speak to"
That moment when youth and adulthood begin to dance and youth can see the fatality of "adulthood" but is powerless against its pull, and the one standing outside looking in at the helpless one and almost in futility says If you can get away then here's a refuge ...
I saw this record in my dads friends collection, i was 12 For xmas i begged n begged for it, somebody recorded a casette for me. I was floored ! Every song spoke to my soul....im still waiting for my queen jane to come back again. sigh , aint life strange, i miss her
I love this song, but I love the whole album! How did Bob write this album and Blonde on Blonde so young!!!!?????? And he is still hitting them out of the ballpark at 79.
that was his big double album had just like a woman prove his vocal talent toured with the band but i always dug 'like a rolling stone saw him and the band in seattle.
Black, blues piano players used to play old, out-of-tune pianos in the logging camps of the South. They preferred the piano out-of-tune because they could get more expression out of it. The guitar is out-of-tune here but Dylan must have recognized the way that it colored the sound.
Listen to "Blowing in the wind", live version where Bob plays along with Ronny Wood and Keith Richards... His acoustic is out of tune as well. No one cared, still amazing performance.
@@bsnf-5 In your instance, Dylan's acoustic guitar was out-of-tune but he probably didn't want to take the time to tune it because it was live. The studio recording was intentionally kept out-of-tune. Few recordings are intentionally out-of-tune because it usually would sound better in tune. An out-of-tune instrument is rarely preferable. If you listen to the Dylan 1966 concerts with "the band", he took such a long time tuning his guitar that the audience would get restless and stomp their feet. Dylan cared.
Am just sat down thinking what I'd like to play and listen to,,and Bob just came right back to me. ,,Need I say anything else...what a great human being the man is ❤Terry and Ed.
This is so good, its one of those , I am not doing anything till this song has finished, songs. Everything about this is pure magic, which about covers the whole album.
What do you mean by original? Everything in art is copied from somewhere else but "Artists" with their big Egos won't admit this, especially Robert Zimmerman.
+Jeffrey Karamazov: Ahhh....you too, eh Jeffrey? Yeah, I've been hoping and waiting for a year or so it seems for somebody to upload this original version. Seems like once it does get put out for everybody, it gets taken down pretty quickly. The piano in this knocks my socks off.....it sounds like a real old-timey rag-time / western saloon piano. This kicks ass.....no doubts about it. Thanks to the one who uploaded it!
I first heard this in a record shop. I asked them to play side two of Highway 61 because side 1 started with Rolling Stone which I obviously knew. All I can say is Wow. I bought the LP and discovered other great tracks like Ballad of a Thin Man and Desolation Row.
Steve Pasquale's comment, two under yours, makes my point of Dylan taking his glasses off and his photographer stops taking photos and Dylan saying go ahead take a photo of me not posing for a photo... This what Steve posted: Dylan once said some interviewer was harassing him about the significance of this album cover to which Dylan responded something like, “idk the dude jus took my picture and i didn’t think anything of it”
This was album I played over and over after night of dosing and coming down hiding out in my brother's bedroom the next day. It's kind of like the songs I used to sing in Sunday School, pressed into my psyche. It was 1971 and I was 16.
When your mother sends back all your invitations And your father to your sister he explains That you’re tired of yourself and all of your creations Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?

"When all of your advisers heave their plastic At your feet to convince you of your pain Trying to prove that your conclusions should be more drastic" Isn't it the case that society often demands drastic conclusions nowadays? No thanks. Great lyrics
Yesterday I managed to escape being 'locked down' in Italy and now I am in my home country with the internet connection to finally listen to this song again. When the trains in Italy are about to reach the station they play a jingle of the exact chord that opens this song. I couldn't get the song out of my head as I was travelling around by train for weeks. Now I finally hear it and wonder if I didn't make a huge mistake, if I shouldn't have let myself get stuck in the place I left my heart. I will have to come see her again... "Prossima fermata: Queen Jane"
My name is Jane ,,,,, i would love to see you my genius friend ,,,,words fail me to describe the utter joy this guy as given to me over the many decades lol xxxx
You have such a profound impact on my carrier that even the biggest thank you text would fall shout to express my gratitude. Thanks for your support ❤️❤️❤️
Been over one half century. WTF, and still, mind blown. Many in the Folk scene were terribly upset with Dylan when he evolved. They reacted like a bunch of caterpillars that had never seen a butterfly.
When your mother sends back all your invitations And your father, to your sister he explains That you're tired of yourself and all of your creations Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Now, when all of the flower ladies what back what they have lent you And the smell of their roses does not remain And all of your children start to resent you Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Now, when all the clowns that you have commissioned Have died in battle or in vain And you're sick of all this repetition Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Won't you come see me, Queen Jane When all of your advisers heave their plastic At your feet to convince you of your pain Trying to prove that your conclusions should be more drastic Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Now, when all of the bandits that you turn your other cheek to All lay down their bandannas and complain And you want somebody you don't have to speak to Won't you come see me, Queen Jane Ah won't you come see me, Queen Jane
"your conclusions should be more drastic"...that hit home like a hammer...it's what we did, exactly what we did. Thanks Bob! dovetailed with "It's All Over Baby Blue" it blew us out of the house and into the wild world - LOOK OUT FOR US!!
I remember getting big into Dylan as a teenage pothead and I remember having an appreciation for what I thought (at the time) to be the best totally random lyrics I'd ever heard. Coming back at 33 I see that every word in every line has meaning.
#mystery-ed I think anyone who took their journey through the 60s as teens, this seemingly strange troubadour-poet was our saving grace. Anyone who ever said "but that voice!" missed the point of his poetry. ♪
"(...)And you want somebody you don't have to speak to..." always touches my heart honestly I need a friend to be non verbal around after getting sick of the world. Adore this song
This song and album came out in '65!?; and it still hits me just as hard-the truth. "When your sick of all this repetition," and "when the SMELL of the ROSES no longer remains.Brilliant
I love this song so much. Refreshing, mesmerizing and awesome. Bob Dylan rules. He likes to remain mysterious and silent. Silence has the right to be heard, noise should be observed. No one can be as cool and hip as Dylan in all of his new old age wisdom that he shares through his thoughts and music while he gets himself born again each new day as someone different who is not here or there, now. Bob Dylan happens everyday except your last day, his future is unpredictable and I love the way he toys with the future while leaving us confused and wanting more of nothing. He hides his lives and several of his different personalities just like a dream changing into a nightmare while the dreamers sleep. Bob Dylan has a lonely soul(s), avoiding being noticed as he awakes singing from his days of not being anything else but zen.

For all those who think Dylan cannot sing, listen, really listen to his phrasing. There is no one who can do this song justice like Dylan.
there's no doubt in my mind whether or not Dylan could sing. He's a master. There is plenty of doubt however about whether he could play the harmonica
@@grandchampignon nah, for me a fantastic harmonica player. So distinctive and expressive. Mostly his harmonica playing is a voice that suggests there is a better world.
Just seen him doing this on his tour and still has that phrasing down as I commented about..

The studio recording was intentionally kept out-of-tune. Few recordings are intentionally out-of-tune because it usually would sound better in tune. An out-of-tune instrument is rarely preferable. If you listen to the Dylan 1966 concerts with "the band", he took such a long time tuning his guitar that the audience would get restless and stomp their feet. Dylan cared.
I love the intro to this song, as well as the whole song, there's something delicate about it.
That's totally true. Because its a song about someone he loves (and begging her to come back to HIM...)
Am just sat down thinking what I'd like to play and listen to,,and Bob just came right back to me. ,,Need I say anything else...what a great human being the man is ❤Terry and Ed.
Most underrated Dylan song on the album. Sounds so rough but perfectly practiced at the same time.
This is so good, its one of those , I am not doing anything till this song has finished, songs. Everything about this is pure magic, which about covers the whole album.
QUEEN JANE CALLING
TIRED OF CREATIONS....
Yes Dr Robert was an inspiration to the Beatles
Finally the original version!
What do you mean by original? Everything in art is copied from somewhere else but "Artists" with their big Egos won't admit this, especially Robert Zimmerman.
@@paulsavage5057 booo, disagree respectfully
Long live dylan!
+Jeffrey Karamazov: Ahhh....you too, eh Jeffrey? Yeah, I've been hoping and waiting for a year or so it seems for somebody to upload this original version. Seems like once it does get put out for everybody, it gets taken down pretty quickly. The piano in this knocks my socks off.....it sounds like a real old-timey rag-time / western saloon piano. This kicks ass.....no doubts about it. Thanks to the one who uploaded it!
Exactly, this is the lpversion, the best
My brother showed me this song, and from that day I am a massive fan of Bob, thank you brother
Your bros a legend
I first heard this in a record shop. I asked them to play side two of Highway 61 because side 1 started with Rolling Stone which I obviously knew. All I can say is Wow. I bought the LP and discovered other great tracks like Ballad of a Thin Man and Desolation Row.
Steve Pasquale's comment, two under yours, makes my point of Dylan taking his glasses off and his photographer stops taking photos and Dylan saying go ahead take a photo of me not posing for a photo... This what Steve posted: Dylan once said some interviewer was harassing him about the significance of this album cover to which Dylan responded something like, “idk the dude jus took my picture and i didn’t think anything of it”
Tom thumbs blues man
This was album I played over and over after night of dosing and coming down hiding out in my brother's bedroom the next day. It's kind of like the songs I used to sing in Sunday School, pressed into my psyche. It was 1971 and I was 16.
Easily Dylan’s most consistent electric album one of the greatest albums ever
Masterpiece from Bob Dylan, the Master of Poetry. Beautiful.
Masterpiece!
When your mother sends back all your invitations
And your father to your sister he explains
That you’re tired of yourself and all of your creations
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Now when all of the flower ladies want back what they have lent you
And the smell of their roses does not remain
And all of your children start to resent you
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Now when all the clowns that you have commissioned
Have died in battle or in vain
And you’re sick of all this repetition
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
When all of your advisers heave their plastic
At your feet to convince you of your pain
Trying to prove that your conclusions should be more drastic
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Now when all the bandits that you turned your other cheek to
All lay down their bandanas and complain
And you want somebody you don’t have to speak to
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Won’t you come see me, Queen Jane?
Thanks, Vivaldi. Loved the Four Seasons by the way.
You listen to a song since you were 9, and you get 49 and love it as ever. Wont you come see me, Queen Jane
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
@@Bryanadamsmusicinc hi, are you a BD fan like me and also someone that I know?
@@karinadamous1831 I’m sorry to hear, so have you ever been to our concerts?
Wait till you're 67.
Happy Birthday
to my late sister,
Susie
I love you and miss you so much
This is my favorite Dylan song...for today at least.
"When all of your advisers heave their plastic
At your feet to convince you of your pain
Trying to prove that your conclusions should be more drastic"
Isn't it the case that society often demands drastic conclusions nowadays? No thanks.
Great lyrics
Yesterday I managed to escape being 'locked down' in Italy and now I am in my home country with the internet connection to finally listen to this song again. When the trains in Italy are about to reach the station they play a jingle of the exact chord that opens this song. I couldn't get the song out of my head as I was travelling around by train for weeks. Now I finally hear it and wonder if I didn't make a huge mistake, if I shouldn't have let myself get stuck in the place I left my heart. I will have to come see her again... "Prossima fermata: Queen Jane"
are you a native italian?
My name is Jane ,,,,, i would love to see you my genius friend ,,,,words fail me to describe the utter joy this guy as given to me over the many decades lol xxxx
Lucky you, Queen Jane.
I say 'lucky him'. Always gave the joy back, same time, everytime. Wrong bob im afraid
Damn he deserved the Nobel Prize
You have such a profound impact on my carrier that even the biggest thank you text would fall shout to express my gratitude. Thanks for your support ❤️❤️❤️
that tack piano in the backing starting at 3:09 is absolutely killer. floors me every time.
I know what you mean. Till about 3:40. I'm in awe of musicians who can improvise such brilliance.
Been over one half century. WTF, and still, mind blown. Many in the Folk scene were terribly upset with Dylan when he evolved. They reacted like a bunch of caterpillars that had never seen a butterfly.
Don't forget Ray Davies, who listened to this and knew he was safe to write "A Well-Respected Man." And the rest is English history.
Great comment. I think you are very right.
Nobody compares not even Jim Morrison -
Best United States poet of all time.
“ Sad Eyed lady of the lowlands .”
My favorite.
Bob Dylan is great because he points out the pain of living.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
I'm 72, and I can't stop listening to Bob Dylan. Not a bad gig. 👍❤❤❤
I'm 172 and I can't stop listening to Dylan either my young friend!
I always thought this and not Like A Rolling Stone was the highlight of this album.....
Listening to Bob Dylan's music during the '60s helped me survive the tumultant times.
And they're helping me through this turmoil now.
tumultant? like a consultant eating tums on black monday?
Love me some Bob Dylan, especially this song
this album and works are immortal
I admire a song that's both a poem and a High Freq. hearing test.
This song always gives me peace. Great Dylan
thank you Bob, thank you I think I will, with joy remember Love All, big
Masterpiece. This is just fantastic.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
When everyone rejects you - and you even reject yourself....won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Saw Dylan 35 times since 1965. I met him in cleveland, ohio in 1991. He was very gracious to me. Shook my hand.
I so envy you ❤ what a magical moment that must have been x
I dedicate this song to all the gals whoever turned me down. That being said. I'm still available.
Bless you child 💞💞💞
Yes!😂 LMMFAO
:)
Bob Dylan blows my mind again and again...What about you, Queen Jane?
When your mother sends back all your invitations
And your father, to your sister he explains
That you're tired of yourself and all of your creations
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Now, when all of the flower ladies what back what they have lent you
And the smell of their roses does not remain
And all of your children start to resent you
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Now, when all the clowns that you have commissioned
Have died in battle or in vain
And you're sick of all this repetition
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
When all of your advisers heave their plastic
At your feet to convince you of your pain
Trying to prove that your conclusions should be more drastic
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Now, when all of the bandits that you turn your other cheek to
All lay down their bandannas and complain
And you want somebody you don't have to speak to
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Ah won't you come see me, Queen Jane
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
Happy Birthday my beautiful Bob. 🌹💖
my thoughts remain
that cannot be tamed
as i greet every morning
before me i saw
an open door
opportunities surround me
I am all alone ... every song i hear ... another Masterpiece to me ❤ i
Arguably one of the ten best songs ever.
"...and you want somebody you don't have to speak to" don't we all, queen jane. such a beautiful line.
"your conclusions should be more drastic"...that hit home like a hammer...it's what we did, exactly what we did. Thanks Bob! dovetailed with "It's All Over Baby Blue" it blew us out of the house and into the wild world - LOOK OUT FOR US!!
Explain this further
I remember getting big into Dylan as a teenage pothead and I remember having an appreciation for what I thought (at the time) to be the best totally random lyrics I'd ever heard. Coming back at 33 I see that every word in every line has meaning.
And here I sit so patiently / Trying to find out what price / You have to pay to get out of / Going through all these things twice
Love this song. Love you, Bob!
One of his best? I mean his absolute sickeningly brilliant best?
Does it get any better than this?
Never
Only thing close is when the Dead cover it
It does , Just turn it up
#mystery-ed I think anyone who took their journey through the 60s as teens, this seemingly strange troubadour-poet was our saving grace. Anyone who ever said "but that voice!" missed the point of his poetry. ♪
No
This is one of the best songs of all time
Probably my favorite Dylan song, from my favorite Dylan album. Perfection.
"(...)And you want somebody you don't have to speak to..." always touches my heart honestly I need a friend to be non verbal around after getting sick of the world.
Adore this song
Sometimes people I loved feel like they are talking to me through songs. This is one of them.
Happy 80th birthday, Bob!!
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
One of my three favorites. The other two are Sara and To Ramona.
This song and album came out in '65!?; and it still hits me just as hard-the truth. "When your sick of all this repetition," and "when the SMELL of the ROSES no longer remains.Brilliant
I keep on coming back to say Thank You ... oh, dear me !
Great singer
I love this song so much. Refreshing, mesmerizing and awesome. Bob Dylan rules. He likes to remain mysterious and silent. Silence has the right to be heard, noise should be observed. No one can be as cool and hip as Dylan in all of his new old age wisdom that he shares through his thoughts and music while he gets himself born again each new day as someone different who is not here or there, now. Bob Dylan happens everyday except your last day, his future is unpredictable and I love the way he toys with the future while leaving us confused and wanting more of nothing. He hides his lives and several of his different personalities just like a dream changing into a nightmare while the dreamers sleep. Bob Dylan has a lonely soul(s), avoiding being noticed as he awakes singing from his days of not being anything else but zen.
His best album in my opinion
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
The detuned guitar is fire
