Man! They just don’t write ‘em like that, anymore.
I teach music, privately, and sight reading is a large part of my lesson plan. This means after we study, I put a random sheet in front of the student and they have to perform it, without the benefit of practice. And every so often, I see a young student just stop and stare at a piece of music and I see the words and or melody sink home into their soul.
This is one of those songs.
Believe it or not, Bob Dylan songs move people, too. Powerful poetry.
