The doctors told me that my son was dieing, and I went out to the car to pray and cry. I didn't want to have the doctors see me cry. I went out to the car and prayed, then I turned on the radio and heard this song and cried harder. I said, Hell no he's not dieing today and he lived 14 more years. I took my son everywhere and we lived in San Francisco and he loved riding on the Cable Cars. Thank-you, Bob Dylan for this song.❤

This song makes my heart heavy, with deep deep sorrow. No one can write a song like Dylan. One of the greatest artists of our time. People rag on his voice, but I challenge anyone that no one can sing his songs like he can. The beauty of his lyrics sounds as good as the best singer there is. No one is like Dylan.

When I first heard that second harmonica part I was walking home alone in the woods, the sun was flashing warm-orenge because of all the trees. I found myself crying hystericly for the last 40 seconds of the song.

I've never in my life herd anyone sing with such soal. Since this I have never felt anyone sing with so much passion. Everyone else seems just to be missing something.

Blood on the tracks must be the greatest album of all times...and listening to this long-kept versions it's like going back in time and imagining what the state of mind and the mood were at the moment that masterpiece was put together. It is just amazing all the versions that were left behind and the different feeling in all of them...but the essence of pain is the single constant. Just awesome

I've seen love go by my door It's never been this close before Never been so easy or so slow I've been shooting in the dark too long When somethin's not right it's wrong You're gonna make me lonesome when you go Dragon clouds so high above I've only known careless love It always has hit me from below But this time around it's more correct Right on target, so direct You're gonna make me lonesome when you go Purple clover, Queen Anne lace Crimson hair across your face You could make me cry if you don't know Can't remember what I was thinkin' of You might be spoilin' me too much, love You're gonna make me lonesome when you go Flowers on the hillside, bloomin' crazy Crickets talkin' back and forth in rhyme Blue river runnin' slow and lazy I could stay with you forever And never realize the time Situations have ended sad Relationships have all been bad Mine have been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud But there's no way I can compare All them scenes to this affair You're gonna make me lonesome when you go You're gonna make me wonder what I'm doin' Stayin' far behind without you You're gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin' You're gonna make me give myself a good talkin' to I'll look for you in old Honolul-a San Francisco, Ashtabula You're gonna have to leave me now, I know But I'll see you in the sky above In the tall grass, in the ones I love You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

The whole album is a masterpiece. I love 'Up to Me', even though it never appeared on the original release, it shines much like 'Abandoned Love' and 'Blind Willie McTell'.

I first started listening to Bob Dylan when I was about five or six years old. It has been a long road since then, going up and down, zig-zagging left and right, but throughout my life Dylan was always present like a vibrant red thread running through it. I've gone twenty years further since that first listen and it's crazy that I can just go on KZread these days and hear all this new (old) stuff. Man, isn't it wonderful?

i know how you feel; for me it's over 40 years, and nothing's diminished. in fact, i think i experience it all more deeply now. the fact that it doesn't have the rush of newness is offset by the pleasure of that depth. and in these alternate versions of old favorites there's secrets still to be discovered. final thought: dylan, like sinatra, is such a subtle, nuanced vocalist that it's fun just to hear him bend a syllable

I think I was six or seven. We were singing Blowin' In The Wind in church. The priest gave him credit. It became a staple. Speaking of Staples, I just saw Bobby last year at the Tower in Philly.

Many cover Dylan well, but when he does it himself it is priceless!

Best harmonica solo I ever heard at the end of this one. This is like a controlled substance.

As a young boy, raised in Orange Co. NY, woody Queen Anne's Lace was the first wildflower that I could identify (Thanks, Ma). Later, I came to think of it as "Dylan's Flower." At age 59, I should give myself a good talking to -the list of wildflowers that I can positively identify is woefully short. Dear Bob- I'll see ya at The Met in Philly on Monday. Knock it out of the park :)

Just rips at my heart, speaks my life's truth, every time...have loved this man's lyrics & melodies...for decades.

I like these raw, unpolished versions. I mean, when push comes to shove, I'll always choose the studio album tracks, but it's great hearing how he got to the finished product. There's no one like Bob...period.

The master just doing his thing.

This song makes me feel calm and relieved but it also breaks my heart at the same time

This song (any version) and One of Us Must Know are my two favourite Dylan tracks.

This is truly beautiful.

My Gram died last month, I played this right after the burial at home, alone. Cried until I couldn't anymore.

Love seeing the difference between what's on the page and what he's singing. I think this was the first Dylan song I really fell in love with.

Thank you Bob for all your songs💗

This song can really hit you.

Even the off beat drummer couldn't ruin this fabulous song!

Bob " Your gonna make me lonesome when YOU go " Hazveh shalom

I'm lovin' this take

One of the best songs ever written 🙌

Relationships can turn good. Yes it can.

Love you bob...love u ❤❤❤

feels like am knocking on heaven's door.

tears had come, way back when? 1973? Now another "take" and I'm 63 years old (and it fits again...once more) and crying...and Grateful for the chance to "hear the song...New...again..."
