    I keep replaying this song. The poetry of it is brutalising. Dylan's finest monolgue to a woman friend Ramona who is so disburbed at events and driven to despair to consider leaving the scene. Dylan tries to dissuades her. Beautifully written song with a superlative melody. Made in heaven. They have said that when Dylan took up guitar the world lost a great storywriter. Too true ..

    Maybe you're a Dylan fan and might follow a link to this or maybe find it accidentally and you will listen to it once or twice and think to yourself "that's quite good".
    Then it will pop into your head at some random time and you'll give it another listen.
    But one evening after a couple of drinks you'll listen again…..and again …and again... forever
    This is the definitive Dylan cover, Sinead's voice, the lyrics, the delivery, the consumate musicianship, everything comes together perfectly.
    Thank you Sinead and band.

    I was 10 years old in 1964 when Dylan released this song. I have never been able to listen to his voice so had never heard it. Spotify played it on my list last week and this beautiful voice grabbed me by the throat and forced me to learn it after work that night! Her cover is brilliant!
