Tears of Rage Lyrics

Lyric discussion by as2191 

Cover art for Tears of Rage lyrics by Bob Dylan

The best song on the released version of 'The Basement Tapes', featuring possibly his greatest vocal performance ever. Wish they'd release the rest of the tapes. "Sign on the Cross" is incredible. And "I'm Not There" needs to be remastered so I can actually understand what he's saying.

My Opinion

Hey! You got your wish. Listening to the Basement Tapes Complete right now, and Dylan's version is breathtaking. Still not sure exactly what the lyrics are referring to, but it was obviously very emotionally meaningful to both Bob and Richard Manuel.
