      @@ibanez856I don’t think he really cares about the politics of music that’s why and will wait years to release a project as he’s probably more concerned with quality rather than flooding us with a large quantity of mediocre music… he seems like he’s very content and blessed with what he has. He’s always seemed like a popular introvert to me… everyone loves him but he’d rather just stick to himself and his family and small circle of friends.

    Bob Dylan was an artist. I'd like to think that he would be happy to see his work stand the test of time, and 40 years after it has been released, other artists are finding inspiration and using it to create even more art. A lot of artists have covered this song; many their own artistic representations of the message and what they take from it. This is no different and I applaud both ed and devlin for doing something new with my favourite song of all time.

    [Verse 3: Devlin]
    Take away the treasure of a man
    Convinced that he holds heaven in his hands
    Even though I ain’t religious I’m a little superstitious
    Maybe there is a promised land
    But will I make it or not is a different matter
    I’ve been a joker, I’ve been a thief, I’ve been a rapper
    I’ve been the only enemy that I can never beat
    Give me a piece of mind upon a platinum platter

The video is really well done too, don't know why people have to slam everything just because they sampled someone else's song. Artists LIKE it when other artists choose to use some of their work & expand on it, it's a compliment!

    It simply showed two criminals after a bank job before disappearing. Ed and Devlin. Devlin was saying goodbye to his family whilst Ed waited in a getaway car, Devlin gave his family some possesions and escaped before SWAT got into the house. The girl in the car clearly didn't grass despite the officer's demands. Just when Devlin thought they'd gotten away, Ed could no longer hide his injury from Devlin. When Ed died, Devlin was destroyed as he lost his partner and Ed clearly hadn't told him about his injury. The grey cloud is pathetic fallacy, it symbolises the bleak ending.

    Funny how all these people that come here just to comment how they prefer Jimi's version or heck even Bob Dylan's. Why click on the video to listen to it in the first place?

      He was shot the wound is too round to be a stab wound

      Elite Playgrounds You say that, but if you pause at 4:07 you can see that the blood is in a vertical stab-like formation. So based on the observation that the blood is in a vertical rectangular formation, and obviously everything tends to move toward the ground, I would say he's probably been stabbed.
      Also a gunshot wound if it went straight into him (like perpendicular to him I mean) would leave a long circular stain (in theory), well, more of a vertical ellipse really.
      Realistically though no one can truthfully know that he's been stabbed, shot or scraped. It's the Schrodinger's cat paradox I suppose.
      Though that being said I've made another observation.. There does seem to be a bullet-like hole in Ed's T-shirt, so perhaps it is supposed to be a bullet wound. Although that could just be a small pool of blood, reflecting light towards the camera?
