Rubin Hurricane Carter by Bob Dylan
I love this song, though the story it tells is one of injustice. Just found this video:

1. The movie the Hurricane was also pretty good
I have been listening to tons of Dylan Lately.

Most Of The Time ( is one of my favorites.)

Most of the time
I'm clear focused all around,
Most of the time
I can keep both feet on the ground,
I can follow the path, I can read the signs,
Stay right with it, when the road unwinds,
I can handle whatever I stumble upon,
I don't even notice she's gone,
Most of the time.

Most of the time
It's well understood,
Most of the time
I wouldn't change it if I could,
I can't make it all match up, I can hold my own,
I can deal with the situation right down to the bone,
I can survive, I can endure
And I don't even think about her
Most of the time.

Most of the time
My head is on straight,
Most of the time
I'm strong enough not to hate.
I don't build up illusion 'till it makes me sick,
I ain't afraid of confusion no matter how thick
I can smile in the face of mankind.
Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine
Most of the time.

Most of the time
She ain't even in my mind,
I wouldn't know her if I saw her
She's that far behind.
Most of the time
I can't even be sure
If she was ever with me
Or if I was with her.

Most of the time
I'm halfway content,
Most of the time
I know exactly where I went,
I don't cheat on myself, I don't run and hide,
Hide from the feelings, that are buried inside,
I don't compromised and I don't pretend,
I don't even care if I ever see her again
Most of the time.

2. I got the DVD of "Hurricane" for Christmas last year.
Asked for it after seeing it on HBO. Denzel was amazing in that movie.

Dang, I need to get some shuteye! Going on 24 hours after only 4 hours sleep.


Next thing you know, I'll be dancing on the tabletop with a lampshade on my head!

7. I invite all fans or even semifans to visit the DU Bob Dylan group.
Edited on Sat Dec-23-06 01:14 PM by speedoo
I posted a bunch of amazing videos from a film called Renaldo and Clara. The videos are mostly live stuff from The Rolling Thunder Review, back in the 70's.

Also, Dylan's "Theme Time Radio Hour" on XM radio is very entertaining. You can listen without paying to subscribe to XM radio.

And there are tons of Dylan videos on youtube.

Graywarrior and I are the unofficial Dylan freaks here... if any other freaks are out there, let us know! We can plug you into some very interesting sites that have mp3 concert downloads, etc.
