Patti Smith, A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall - Perfect Edit for Playlists

[@themusicindustrialcomplex]

Where have you been my blue-eyed son? Where have you been my darling young one? I've stumbled on side of twelve misty mountains I've walked and I've crawled down six crooked highways I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests Been out in front of a dozen dead oceans Been ten-thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard It's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall What did you see my blue-eyed son? What did you see my darling young one? Saw the newborn babe with wild wolves all around it Saw the highway of diamonds with nobody on it I saw the black branch with blood that kept drippin' Saw the room full of men whose hammers were bleedin' I saw the white ladder all covered with water Saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall What did you hear my blue-eyed son? And what did you hear my darling young one? Heard the sound of the thunder that roared out a warnin' Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world Heard one person starve, heard many people laughin' Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter Heard the sound of a clown that cried in the alley And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall Who did you meet my blue-eyed son? And who did you meet my darling young one? I met a young child beside a dead pony I met a young man who had a black dog I met a young woman whose body was burning I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow I met (a) young man who was wounded in love I met another man, he was wounded in hatred And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall And what'll you do now my blue-eyed son? And what'll you do now my darling young one? I'm a-goin' back out where the rain starts a-fallin' I'm goin' down deep in the deepest black forest Where the people are many and their hands are all empty Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters Where home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison And the executioner's face is always well-hidden Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten Where black is the color, where none is the number And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it And reflect from the mountain so all souls can see it AndI'll stand in the ocean until I start sinkin' And I'll know my song well before I start singin' And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

[@markspahr242]

If I were Zimmy, I'd be right proud I'd written it so Patti could nail it. Wow! The backup musicians are perfect and heartfelt.

[@edwardbroski4139]

someone please play this version at my funeral

[@spiritofanu3112]

I am thinking the same thing

[@travelfreak2]

Funeral? That’s when we need Happy Songs and lyrics. But let’s not forget that the above Lyrics by Bob Dylan are his best of all times, the best of his writings, and written at the age of 21-23 years young. How did he do it? I’m jealous!

[@rosalysabh1557]

Eu posso tocar e cantar

[@geniahofreiter]

Although it is great to have this edit for the playlist - I absolutely love the imperfection of the original. I don't think any performance has ever moved me as much. Such grace and dignity! If you haven't seen or heard it please do!

[@spiritofanu3112]

Came across this and have been playing it since. God, I miss the poetry, music and activism of the 60’s and 70’s. I was young but loved it.

[@Johnboy33545]

We don't need to apologize for being young in the best of times. We've lived in interesting times.

First I’ve seen this and it was beautiful, thanks for showing it.

Isn't it sad that Bob wrote this in the 60s and we still are doing the same old dance.

The original version still exists.

She opened for Dylan at Electric Factory played Last Farewell

Back when we all still believed that a song could change the world and the crazy thing is that just for a while it really could. That was then; this is now and genocide is entertainment.

[@themusicindustrialcomplex]

We can still change the world even though the times they are a changing.

[@m.choupie.]

This is great but Patti sang many other songs like people have the power

[@therealdisston]

Of course. It's Dylan.

[@annemariefranz8832]

She sang IT in Stockholm where she Received nobel prize for bob Dylan, right ?

[@eriknystrom5839]

Yes, that is correct. You can see the Swedish Royal family in the audience. Also note the N (Nobel) on the carpet. That info should have been in the title to the video or at least in the info-box.

[@AhsanulAbid]

I remember watching the live session on TV. For whatever reason, Pattie Smith twice stumbled with the lyrics. But, it was so beautiful and bold of her to recollect and finish beautifully. The audience clapped long showing their appreciation. Really moving rendition!❤🎵🙏

[@sanjupodder9479]

Please let me know the name of the guy with acoustic guitar.

[@oldnatty61]

One time at band camp...

[@m.choupie.]

She sings it with Joan Baez

[@gibbogle]

Beautiful song and performance. The sound is not synced with the video. Is it really live?

[@themusicindustrialcomplex]

Yes, it’s live. I just checked, and the sound is synced with the video perfectly. Maybe there was a glitch with KZbin when you watched it. Try watching again and see if it is ok.
