[edit]

"Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. First released as the final track on Dylan's seventh studio album Blonde on Blonde (1966), the song lasts 11 minutes and 23 seconds, and occupies the entire fourth side of the double album. The song was written by Dylan and produced by Bob Johnston. The music is a waltz in 6/8 time. Dylan's lyrics polarized critics; several reviewers found them impenetrable, but rated the song favorably. Later writers have often agreed with this, praising the sound, dismissing the lyrics, and rating the song as amongst Dylan's best work. It has been covered by a variety of artists, including Joan Baez, on Any Day Now (1968), and Richie Havens, on Mixed Bag II (1974). Roger Waters of Pink Floyd said that the song changed his life, and George Harrison wrote that the track influenced aspects of the Beatles song "Long, Long, Long". (Full article...)
