'dear landlord' might be my favorite song on the album, i should have given it a shoutout, as i've had the end of the song "now each of us has his special gift/and you know this to be true/and if you don't underestimate me/i won't underestimate you.' <BR/><BR/>i like karaokeing to dylan, since his voice is not pretty to start with so i can imitate it well. i'd love to karaoke to 'dear landlord'!Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248830130807084759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627662502181857800.post-19721072931466391272008-02-10T16:07:00.000-08:002008-02-10T16:07:00.000-08:00Interesting that you first experienced the album w...Interesting that you first experienced the album with your dad on a road trip. I heard it in similar circumstances, with my dad and I chilling at my uncle's cabin in Montana. Lying in a hammock in the August sun, listing to Bob Dylan LPs and looking out on a mountain meadow is pretty darn idyllic!<BR/><BR/>And I have to throw out my personal favorites:<BR/>2. As I Went Out One Morning<BR/><EM>- I just love the tempo in this song. The drumming seems to have such great propulsion. And no, the medieval speak doesn't bother me at all. =) And this song probably has some of the least annoying use of harmonica you can find.</EM><BR/>3. I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine<BR/><EM>- There's something particularly ethereal and mournful about this song that I find so appealing. At the same time, the waltz tempo (am I correct?) makes me want to dance around the room.</EM><BR/>6. Drifter's Escape<BR/><EM>- More great propulsive drumming.</EM><BR/>7. Dear Landlord<BR/><EM>- Great song with a great piano. A dramatic, mournful song about being unable to pay the rent is both silly and totally reasonable.</EM><BR/>9. I Pity the Poor Immigrant<BR/><EM>- Great lyrics. A telling story of immigrant striving and insignificance. The tune seems like it's the saddest drinking song you've ever heard.</EM><BR/>12. I'll Be Your Baby Tonight<BR/><EM>- A great, boozy slow jam, like you said.</EM>Peter Robinetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349174955843594554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627662502181857800.post-67888338069734799442008-02-09T09:07:00.000-08:002008-02-09T09:07:00.000-08:00Bajate toda la discografía de Dylan acá.Auspicia f...Bajate toda la discografía de Dylan <A HREF="http://fantasmavelez.blogspot.com/2008/02/bob-dylan-discografa-de-estudio.html" REL="nofollow">acá</A>.<BR/><BR/>Auspicia <A HREF="http://fantasmavelez.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">fantasmavelez.blogspot.com</A>Fantômashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18422996765841927253noreply@blogger.com
