Joan Baez - It's All Over Now, Baby Blue (Farewell, Angelina)
You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
Leave your stepping stones behind you, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue
Oh, it's all over now, Baby Blue.
Joan Baez - It's All Over Now Baby Blue - Live In Frankfurt (04:01)
Simply beautiful. Sorry about the poor camera work. Security was tight, so I had to film as
discretely as possible. If you want a perfect view like I had, pay the artist and go and see her.
She is astonishing. Taken with an Olympus 770C
Very nice post ... Joan Baez is a great artist and a fine human being ... still has a lovely voice too ... The Dylan take-off at 3.17 was a poignant moment of wry humor ... thanks for the post.

bob dylan portrays the message of his songs through his tone so well, she can sing good, but it sounds fake, like she shouldn't be singing this song. i guess it's just not right without dylan singing.

Make all the excuses you want. You had a great opportunity and blew it. Next time, do us all a favor, leave the camera at home, since you evidently don't know how to use it. It would be better for all. Sorry.

I see. Joan was watching you to not dare filming. Anyway, it's a beautiful clip. And she's still in love with Bob.

I am sorry that you feel that way. I didn't, however, go to this concert to record for your pleasure. I am not a professional, and have just a cheap camera. Not only was I singing along, but so were 5,000 others. So try to remember that before you judge this and take the recording for what it is..... just a candid moment from a concert.
