  I know a lot of it is nostalgia speaking but I still hold that Jeff Buckley’s version is the best. I think he captures the emotion I feel perfectly in his voice.

  I think Famous Blue Raincoat is sadder. The music is more desolate.

  Not saddest, just worst.

  It’s the LONGEST song ever. Folks were like “Hey Leonard, this song is great!” and he took that to mean “I should write some more verses”.

  There is no setting where it is appropriate to play the entire full length song.

    You can’t call a song long unless it hits the 10 minute mark imo.

    Also its part of the genres tradition. It’s not like it’s bizzarely long for similar songs.

    I used to play all six verses when I was busking, but yeah, it does go on a bit. It’s a dirge.
