succinct and to the point.
Yeah, but that part isn't even in Joanie's original! Priest added that "Diamonds, diamonds and ru-hu-hu-hust" as a coda/chorus on their own accord. I like the original, I like what Priest did with it, but as even a gay Halford was never in love with Bob Dylan or felt jilted by him, I always thought that him singing "You were so good with words ... and at keeping things vague ..." bordered on the incongruous, it's really something only Frau Baez can sing with the necessary credibility. There is still an ache in her when she performs that song today (I saw her a few months ago), she ain't over Bobby yet.
Blackers and his Missus do it too and while it's lovely, I hate it when Candice skips the "crummy" in the "from the window of that crummy hotel in Washington Square" - probably because it's not Renaissance enough!
That's not Country by the way, too minorish!
