Spirit on the water
Darkness on the face of the deep
I keep thinkin' about you, baby
And I can't hardly sleep

    he knows enough to not end a song until it's over which is one of the many reasons we listen to him instead of you

    I quite like this track ... for the first three minutes or so. Just a shame Mr Dillon didn't know when to stop!

    I really don't think there are enough superlatives for me to describe my love for this song. Honestly, it's one of the sweetest ballads I've ever heard, and easily one of the best songs Dylan has written in the last 30-35 years.

    this is one of those songs that is long but never seems long. quietly uplifting.

    A throwback to 1930s jazz. I have to say it's a tad boring but it seems aimed at an older audience which is fair enough at Bob's age.
