Bob Dylan - Man Of Constant Sorrow

Only in the age of the "millennial" could someone find something mean to say about this old stoner.

who comes from the voice «Fredirick», hit like

Is there a name for that little Hiccup thing he does while singing?

What an awful voice

This jewish kid shows much promise

I prefer the Soggy Bottom Boys, but this is good, too.

he new a good song when he heard it and he knew how to make others lyrics his own. but many songwriters better than him imo. Dylan borrowed his best lyrics from old time mountain music. his singing is ok I guess but his longevity and persistence are his best characteristics. right place right time and enough drugs around to keep the listeners interested. this is an old song no one knows who wrote it actually. Stanley Brothers popularized it and well actually saved it. Ralph remembered their dad singing it and did his best to remember the words.

🌼⭐️🎼🎼🎼

This is by far the best recording of Bob Dylan doing this song.

am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I'll say goodbye to Colorado
Where I was born and partly raised

Your mother says I'm a stranger
My face you'll never see no more
But there's one promise, darling
I'll see you on God's golden shore

Through this open world I'm about to ramble
Through ice and snow, sleet and rain
I'm about to ride that morning railroad
Perhaps I'll die on that train

I'm going back to Colorado
The place that I started from
If I knowed how bad you'd treat me
Honey, I never would have come

I like his debut album Bob Dylan, but to be honest there was no sign at all of what was to come in the next few years, next few decades, even the next album. He went from a pretty decent but mediocre effort on his first album, with songs most folk singers were singing around the club's and coffee houses to his classic, amazing second album The Freewheelin that set him on the course to change music forever. He had a profound influence on my equally favourite artists The Beatles. He was responsible for them making their Rubber Soul album which also changed the way music was going. He had an influence on The Rolling Stones and their first great album Aftermath. The Byrds were a sort of hybrid of Dylan and the Beatles. Dylan's words, put to a 12 string Rickenbacker, Roger Mcguinn had seen George Harrison playing on A Hard Days Night. Dylan influenced the Beatles and Stones and they in turn influenced everyone else. Then again, with the Band and the Basement Tapes, Dylan influenced Eric Clapton to leave Cream, influenced The Rolling Stones on their Beggars Banquet album and influenced The Beatles to go back to their roots with Get Back. Dylan's influence was immense.

Let’s be fair this is crap

and believe it or not you are listening to The man of constant sorrow song :-) hahah... Dylan is great

Thanks Bob. Love this

Just Fabulous

My hero ❤

excellent version

Anyone who thinks he’s a bad guitarist should try it themselves. You could spend a hundred years and not be able to strum with the genius of Dylan

It's 2023- yes indeed, the master poet! & We all know it..not to mention SONG writing!🎶🎵🎶 Definitely, Are Mr Dylan is a work of 🎨 Legendary Legend, All over the 🌏...with all due RESPECT-🎶 Unionsundown🎵...⏳.. it's all about 🕰️ ING....🙌.... SHALOM, to All.....

Dylan’s a tremendous poet, storyteller, troubadour, a voice of our ages. A vocalist, he’s never been.

Sorrow comes uninvited, surely. But then again, happiness does also come unexpectedly. One who knows this is able to tolerate both distress and joy, just as one knows that the seasons come and go and thus can endure throughout the ups and downs.

Funny how the sadness of this song is so beautifully expressed, and therefore makes one kind of feel the happiness of truth.

Dylan looking through those "this better be be worth that soul I sold" eyes.

First, I heard this song in o brother where art, though? And I didn't realize how far the song actually went back until tonight, and I'm glad I found out

The greatest

...a staple of folk music...so good

2024 and still relevant

The GOAT

He put this song on his first record which failed commercially. I thing this video is done after he's had some success with maybe 2 more albums uner his belt

Like a freight train through your head. Penetrating right to your soul. Thank you Mr. Dylan wherever you are.

I was one month old when this taped :(

Hahaha...sounds like a first song. Very bluesy

Coincidencia temporal león

I like his songwriting more than his vocals. However, he is a true artist. Unlike these bland ‘artist’ created in the studio.

I genuinely think is in my opinion the greatest performance on video ever made. It is honestly historical

I'm not american, don't know much about classic american music though I'm a fan of country music. Just got into bluegrass, I like this style of old bluegrass with harmonica, can anyone recommend other songs?

The ultimate parody of his inspirations

7/3/24 ❤️♥️Freedom💙🇺🇸

In constant sorrow all through his days



I am a man of constant sorrow

I've seen trouble all my days

I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky

The place where I was born and raised



The place where he was born and raised



For six long years I've been in trouble

no pleasure here on earth I've found

For in this world, I'm bound to ramble

I have no friends to help me now



He has no friends to help him now



It's fair thee well, my old true lover

I never expected to see you again

For I'm bound to ride that Northern Railroad

perhaps I'll die upon this train



Perhaps he'll die upon this train



You can bury me in Sunny Valley

For many years there I may lay

And you will learn to love another

while I am sleeping in my grave



While he is sleeping in his grave



Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger

My face you never will see no more

But there is one promise that is given

I'll meet you on Gods golden shore



He'll meet you on God's golden shore

Still the best version of this song.

So good!

Interesting on the C chord he doesn't move his pinky onto the 3rd fret low E he shifts his ring finger in time with the picking.

His voice sounds just incredible.

2024 anyone?❤

To those who don't like his voice, you simply do not get it.

If you listen closely all the notes are there
