  • Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic. Then give me another word for it, you who were so good with words and at keeping things vague. Because 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.

    I'm 64 years old now. For decades I have followed your career. Now I have painful joints. I battle depression. And yet, when I close my eyes and listen to your words and that voice of a lark, they wash away all that pain. I thank you for who you are. The world is a better place having you in it.

    I met Joan Baez in San Francisco at the Teatro Zinzanni Dinner Theatre around 2008. She sang in the show but she sang akin to opera, her role in the show. During the show, I was chosen to dance with Baez at her request, 'Sir, Would You Like To Dance'? And of course I accepted.
    Amazing to see Joan Baez in my waltzing arms, her speaking to me, eye to eye. And later after the show, met her again at an empty venue with her performer friends and my family. , played music with her with my brother Mark Stock. Joan was wonderful, we all played a few songs when she gave us all the great gift of some of her greatest songs...Diamonds and Rust, 4 Letter Word, and a few others. That was the most memorable night of this local yokel musicians life.

      Thats the power and fascination that Bob can cause on someone. But his true love was Sara,their divorce really broke him. The tragedy in Bob's romantic life is that he connected with Joan on a musical,artistic level but didnt love her. With Sara it was the opposite,he was in love with her but didnt connect,bond with her on an artistic level.Sara wasnt an artist. Bob said that when he started taking painting classes in NY he couldnt share it wih her,it didn't interest her,its not like they talked about it for hours,she wasnt nourishing him on his artistic life. He always felt incomplete in relationships,i believe he is a deeply lonely man,a hermit soul deep down

    This a phenomenally powerful song. People are calling it a love song on here, but for me it's about bitterness caused by disappointment in love. Because the person who disappointed the singer is calling out of the blue, she seizes the moment to say that, while she cherishes a memory of what they shared, she's moved on and isn't going to let herself be hurt again.

      Joan Baez has a voice that is as pure as a spring rain and as strong and perfect as the finest silk.
      This song was the perfect song for the time, back in the mid 1970's - It spoke to her former relationship with Bob Dylan and yet was so true, it spoke to the hearts of so many who understood that loving can sometimes be both wonderful and heart breaking.
      Be happy, find the joy in your world and life. I've heard Brazil is a very beautiful country.

    Makes me cry too. Of course I love both Joan and Bob. I love to play this song but I can't come anywhere close to the magic and emotion of the woman who had the experience. 💖🎼

    There has never been and probably never will be a more apt ode to Bob Dylan who turns 75 today, May 24, 2016 CE. Thanks, Joan. Good health and happiness for the most talented and crazy person you ever wrote for. Love from Bangladesh.

    A masterpiece from Joan Baez. It's so good that Judas Priest did a terrific metal version. Folk and Joan fans, please, try to listen to it. Rob Halford's voice make absolute justice to this gem.

    After hearing Priest do this since I was a teenager and never thinking to go to the original, I must say this is haunting and beautiful. It is very interesting to compare the arrangements of the two.
