'highlands' is a 17 minute absolute masterpiece. the producer, when he learned the song was 17 minutes long, asked dylan, couldn't you do a shorter version? and bob said, "this is the short version". there are NO weak cuts. the album will, as bob said in his grammy speech, bust your brains out.oh mercy .... 'what was it you wanted' tell me again so i'll know, is the whole thing going backwards? has she gone with 'the man in the long black coat'? 'what good am i', if i look right through you? a song about homelessness, aids, the have-nots among the haves. again, NO weak cuts. pure excellence of thought and spirit and musicinfidels ... 'jokerman' listen to it and tell me who the jokerman is...hahaha, i know who he is! it's the modern 'ballad of a thin man', jokerman jones. 'man of peace' will ride down niagara falls in the barrels of your skull. can you smell something cooking? tomorrow all activity will cease. 'i and i' claims no man sees my face and lives... reminds me of silvio, gonna find out something only dead men knowstreet legal ... 'where are you tonight' will stone you and you'll come back again. a white diamond gloom and a pathway that leads up to the stars, man. 'senor (tales of yankee power)' will stone ya when you say that it's the end. this place don't make sense to me no more, man. and there's 'no time to think'knocked out loaded
