| Mason Jennings – Ulysses Lyrics
| 16 years ago

I remember him talking at various concerts in the early days about a time in his life when he got mono for like 6 months. He talked about how he tried to read Ulysses during this time, never finished it, and said "I like magazines." A lot of these lyrics conjure up images from his life at this point. This was when his first album was out and was a hit, they tried to record a follow up with his original band, and he got mono and the band sort of fell apart for awhile. When he came out of his sickness, the Mason Jennings Band had become Mason Jennings, the original drummer was gone and the band suddenly had a saxophone. Anyway, the time between the first and second album, when he had mono is the time of his life alot of these lyrics seem to refer to. |

I have always taken this song as a song about missing a true love who has passed on. This is probably my favorite Dylan song. Mason Jennings also does a great version of this song. |
