Bob Dylan - Tempest (Official Audio)

Never ceases to make tears fall.

Smash that thumbs up if you're here because of the Titan imploding.

Titanic ride with Bob... This guy is so different I can't get out of the song...

A song for lost children please you can do this maybe it's just you Bob

one of my favorite songs , comment from china

Après avoir écouté un tel chef d'œuvre maintenant je suis aux anges, et dire qu'il y en encore qui demande pourquoi Dylan s'est ramasser le prix Nobel de littérature !

I never give my life to this country again

Song about the end of this world and nuclear war. It'd be better to listen to had Dylan not purposely made his voice sound... black, but that's his favorite. Had he been born that he'd had not made as much $$$ with somebody's else's song rites.

💖💖💖💖

God has blessed this man. This song is brilliant. But his highlights were slow train and saved

The song evokes the ocean's roll within the tale. Beautiful.

Love this👍👍👍👍👍👍💙💙💙💙💙💙

👌👌😎

Bob

Whiskey and smoke of his voice 😊 What a master! Amen.🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

One More Great Masterpiece!!!...

Dylan paints pictures with his words.

The watchman, he lay dreaming
As the ballroom dancers twirled
He dreamed the Titanic was sinking
Into the underworld

Eccezionale

Il Picasso della musica ha realizzato il suo bombardamento di Guernica

È talmente immensa che non si vede l'orizzonte...

Music not original. Lyrics not poetic nor enigmatic enough. Certainly not like Sad eyed lady nor Murder most foul. Sound like an old Irish drinking song. Expected more from an epic of 13 minutes. Probably out of date for this century. Might have been listenable in the 80s.

And the next year they created the Fed, after killing their competition. I see a lot of parallels between the ship and our ship of state.

I know of one Jeffrey Tempest 🤷🤷🤷

Heidecker did it better.

UNOFFICIAL LYRICS:

On April 10th, 1912
A story began for which we must delve
Out of the Port of South Hampton, the liner did leave
On a cruise to Manhattan or so they believed

It was the largest boat that man ever built
Born from men who had breathed in the dust and the silt
Ain’t a boat, they told us, couldn’t have been sunk
Whoever promised that must have been drunk

[Chorus]
Ooooh Titanic
How could you let us down?
Ooooh Titanic
You’re lying on the bottom of the water just waiting to be found

Now Edward John Smith was the man in command
It was his vessel when it wasn’t on land
Murdoch at his side, his crew was the best
Handpicked for the cruise above all the rest

Harland and Wolff had built the ship strong
To sail for many years and last very long
But when it came to lifeboats, they could’ve used more
Well, they just couldn’t imagine what they’d be needed for

[Chorus]

And the ship was cruising straight to New York
While the millionaires ate caviar from the tip of a fork
And the immigrants huddled down in the hull
That big ol’ boat was certainly full

Yes, the White Star Line was known for its greed
Never tolerated stowaways or people in need
The dining rooms decked out in silver and gold
While the tramps in steerage, shivering and cold

[Chorus]

Up in the crow’s nest, Fleet was perched
His duty was clear, he just had to search
For an iceberg or anything that was clear
But the only trouble was it was already too near

Well, the iceberg it torn into the side and caused a gash
While the people, long dead, were having a bash
The bow listed back and the people screamed
The impossible had happened or so it had seemed

[Chorus]

So many people plunged right into the waters
Many husbands and wives and sons and daughters
There were lifeboats for some who were lucky or greedy
To die cold and alone was the fate for the needy

The mast rose high and then sunk down
Just to disappear without a sound
Called the Carpathia, she eventually arrived
But it was much too late, so many already had died

[Chorus]

[Harmonica solo]

[Chorus]

The director Cameron on the set of True Lies
As the scene played out, he closed his eyes
A vision of his next film was becoming clear
A story of a shipwreck for all to hear

Soon DiCaprio was cast and Winslet as well
Little did they know that the shoot would be hell
Ol’ Cameron pushed the limits of CGI
All the special effects really defied the eyes

[Chorus]

When the filmed premiered, it blew the roof off the place
All the executives watching there had smiles on their face
It went on to gross more than a movie ever had
For a flick about a shipwreck, man, that ain’t bad

It was a lock for the Oscar. It just couldn’t lose
The Academy never even had to choose
And when Cameron took the prize, his head must’ve swirled
Up at the podium, he said, “I’m the King of the World”

[Chorus]
Ooooh Titanic
How could you let us down?
Ooooh Titanic
You’re lying at the bottom of the water just waiting to be found

Then some years later, when the timing was right
Cameron dusted off his treasure like we thought he might
No, the story hadn’t changed nor either the cast
But options for Cameron still were vast

See, the original had always seemed kinda flat to me
So the master upgraded it to be seen in 3D

[Final chorus]
Ooooh Titanic
How could you let us down?
Ooooh Titanic
You’re lying on the bottom of the water just waiting to be found
Oh waiting to be found
Ooooh Titanic
How could you let us down?

I needed an antidote from the endless articles about Taylor Swift, so I listened to a few songs from Tempest. This song never fails to bring tears. Makes me feel like I was on the deck.

My dad from Denmark b -29 never learned english but he loved country happy merry country music and he loved walz, schottis, tango an excellent dancer + 85 . Singing in his trucks he rode around all Sweden, and singing was his only company in his life at work. And he loved fairy tales and old ships especially sailing ships, and his brothers during and after WWII were all to sea as sailors ,
But my dad was grieving all his life his elder brothers never brought him to travel at sea as real sailors, so he collected paintings of sail ships, and he learned play accordeon and knew as Danish better Swedish trad. poet Evert Taube, than any of the Swedish people around him, all his songs a couple of hundereds and never missed one verse and Taube often composed in walz, and about his adventures in Argentina and Cuba and dramas far away at sea and lost ships and sailors . I translated a few of Dylans songs, but it was uncertain if he apprecieted them. BUT THIS LOVELY LOVELY WALZ AND STORY ---OHHH HOW I WISHED HE WOULD SHARE TEMPEST WITH ME, AND MAYBE HE FINALLY WOULD UNDERSTAND WHO I REALLY WAS ABOUT PREFERENCES , AND I WISH WISH IN VAIN HE WOULD HAVE SHARED THIS WITH ME I AM SURE HE WOULD HAVE NAMED IT THE BEST HE EVER HEARD Dylan sings with power and force in a way when as never any others of his song - perfect for the dramas sailors experience.

Almost perfect. Almost.

Why isnt it?

Because it reminds me of Camerons crappy Titanic movie especially a naked Winslet as "Leo took his sketchbook" 😂

El maestro de todo esto.

❤🍇 thanks

This song is PURE art.

When the Holy Spirit wants to talk, He does.

Worse song I ever heard

the chandeliers were swaying from the balustrades above - Gaslight - Basement venue

I heard the song today that Dylan wrote about The loss of the Titanic. Another Remarkable Bob Dylan!
Larry Davies

If writing and performing were an Olympic sport, Bob Dylan has been winning gold for more than 60 years.

Love the music of Bob Dylan ♥️♥️🎤🎸♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟⭐️💫

It's a crap shoot life and death

I think this song is about an affair Leo had while filming Titanic (probably with Kate).

He ages like a fine wine. Drink deep🎉❤ and realize this vlntage will never come again. Enjoy😊
