"I march in the Parade of Liberty - but as long as I love you I'm not free..." This song got me out of nowhere when I was walking with a broken heart (and a broken mind) - I truly LOVE the violin on that song. Oh, and it is also a lot of fun to play on the guitar. "Wherever the children go... I'll follow them."

The lyrics to this song are superb throughout. "I thought that he was righteous but he's vain..." (the deceptive clown within) and "He's always off somewhere when i need him most..." (the spectre-battling patron saing) are two of my favorite characters out of the hundreds he's peopled his songs with. Great fun to play and easy too!

sit back and listen to a mind still churning away with ecclectic imagery.

Love this one. "Take off your heavy makeup and your shawl." Don't know why, but that line just does it for me.

Perhaps Mr. Dylan's most under-rated song. The lyrics are extraordinary. "We sat in an empty theatre and we kissed...." Great imagery throughout the song.
