This song has helped me through some rough times. Rufus has a real knack for truly owning and improving and recreating already great songs

This song reaches deep for me. I feel like I understand exactly what this song is talking about, the place inside ourselves that this song is referencing, that tiny little spark that you have left that you hold on to like a candle in the darkness. I feel like Rufus has been there too or he wouldn't be able to sing it like this. And I feel like Dylan has been there too or he wouldn't have been able to write it. Thank you Rufus for turning the Dylan version into something even more magnificent, two greats are often better than one! You are a Wonder. When you sing it, somehow, it lifts, it provides a floor, puts my feet on it. I can land here if Rufus is singing it! It feels better to be honest that this is what life feels like, many times, rather than to pretend that it doesn't. Life can get hard, it can get mean, often to the people who deserve it least. This song is like armor. Beautiful melancholy. The fact that Dylan left "dark" for each of us to use as we see fit, it makes room for everybody. What a beautiful gesture in a very judgemental world. ❤❤ Two hearts, one for each of you! So glad to be alive with your music in my life.

The best version of this song since I first heard it sung by Dylan, who's version touches me like no one else has done, but this one comes the closest.

Love Rufus' voice snd talent, but Dylan brings level of world-weariness truly doing justice to words.

what an amazing voice...my goodness..

Gotta love Rufus. When you think you have heard his best, well you get this Bob Dylan loving recreation.

So beautiful. I appreciate every choice made with this version. Like, if you were going to elevate this song, because it is so important after all, every choice is perfect. To me it is talking about the darkest place we get to in our psyche, short of the worst. It is not talking about what happens before suicide, drug addiction, violence . . . It's not dark yet, and it stays there. Hoping all of you out there are able to stay there too. It's not dark yet, and it doesn't need to get dark. ❤️

Oh my god. I had no idea he covered this. Heart blown.

Wonderful vibes from Rufus and Dylan's words.

Best rendition of this song! Wainwright is amazing!

Rufus with your sensual and amazing voice and your marvelous style you filled with spell and poetry this masterpiece of Dylan.I never get tired of listening to you

"Behind every beautiful thing there has been some kind of pain" what a line.

Astonishing. This is my favourite of Bob's songs. Rufus covers it with all the melancholy of the song. Thanks Rufus.

Is it possible to be so beautiful?

Rufus you sang this and pulled me to tear. Vocals Perfect! Wow!

Bob is a great hymn writer.

Simply the best. Enough said

Thank you for posting this. It is so very beautiful, but then we are talking about Rufus singing Dylan. Enough said

Amazing cover! Rufus entered my life about 19 years ago. Just as I started high school and all the awkward growing pains. Every time he is in town, I go to his shows. Since I was very young when I was introduced, my mother took me to all his early shows. Many wonderful memories in Chicago... my mother and I bonded over his music and his beautiful voice. He is simply one of the few performers with natural talent, where his live version are better over studio. Its weird to say someone you never met, but his work has been part of all my life experiences. The journey of life. This one hits the spot this week. ❤

Very GOOD, never expected such a performance, thank you RUFUS

Magnifique,! You make it. wonderful with à so beautiful Voice ! , thanks for this lovely interpretation !🌹💗

Lovely version of Dylan's incredibly well crafted song.

So glad you want to cover a Dylan song . So many , I hope , still to follow . Stay in the spirit of Hope . Peter behind my Judy

Oh my GOD! What total, absolute, serenity! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

WONDERUFL VOICE !!! elegancia, estilo y saber-hacer ¡¡GRACIAS POR ESTA PRECIOSA VERSIÓN, RUFUS !!

Wow Rufus,this song was made for you to sing FANTASTIC

Rufus you are genial! Thank you to exist!

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to acquaint myself with Rufus' music for a while now. This is a very good reminder.

Soooo Beautiful !!!!

Beautiful. Love Dylan’s songwriting but this is the way to sing it 🙌

It is very clear that in Rufus merged his musically ut-most gifted father Loudon and mum Kate McGarrigle - and do I hear his sis Martha back vocalling.. yeah !! And yeah... this one goes fine with my Hohner harmonica in a straight A - just breatin 'in & out..

Magnificent. Really beautiful.

Just...sublime.

Thank you soooo much for this 💎GEM💎

Listened to many many covers over the years but this is complete and utter fucking perfection . My thanks and love

As always the best version of this is Rufus should release it as a single

Go halainn ar fad Rufus !Beautiful!

Dang, Rufus. You really need to include this on your next album...please?

Que placer escucharte ,Rufus,involuntario problema con un ser inmaduro que siempre interrumpe a los cantantes que admiro...EMI ARBO

Perfection!

A melancholy feeling that I like 👍

Quelle magnifique voix. Elle est incroyable. Elle transmet tellement d'émotions qu'on ne peut pas être insensible. En plus il est très beau. Tout va ensemble 😄 j'espère qu'un de ses 4 je pourrais aller le voir en "vrai" 😄🥰

Wonderful!!!!! 💖

Always great!

Wow. This is great

¡Maravilloso!

I love this

Thanks man ,

Nice version.

Love Wainwright, but no one does justice to this like Dylan.

Love this. I question his change in the lyrics "I've still got the scars that the sun didn't let me heal". Prefer the original by far. But Rufus is always great by definition.

but it's getting there...

muito boa a interpretacao

soul turning to steel..... wow that's sad hope it never happens

Do u think u can make it better than Bobby himself, lol!

looks like his father there.....to me

I'm sorry, like Bob, NOBODY

Great song. Perfect, except for the tempo and the vocal.
