Donovan - Catch the wind

Absolutely

I didn't know Dylan sang on his songs? 😏

Thank heavens and Donovan for this song.

Dear "itsonlyadream" ... 4 years ago you were 80 ... I am now 79 yrs 2024 and also wish to be cremated ... "ashes to ashes" my dear .... but it's songs like this that express "life" .... try and catch the wind ...... and you know ..... that was my choice of ... "earth, wind, fire, water" .... it's
the Wind ... that is elusive ... we can do what we want .... So "itsonlyadream" .... you are never alone .... xo

Sisters and seventies best Generation ever music and arts wise❤❤❤❤

Am 60and was taught this beautiful song when I was 19 by my Scottish English teacher....I like it and I play it from time to time on my Guitar

Who's here from Baby Reindeer ? What a beautiful tune .

This song makes me wish he knew….. 💔

I’m 76 now and love hearing this song again… wonderful memories

This year will be 45-yrs for Bobby Sands and his Comrades, where has the time gone, a great Poet, & Writer
Never should have happened. RIP. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️🇮🇪🇮🇪🇱🇷🇱🇷💕🇱🇷

I dedicate this song to all those that have passed on and are no longer in our frequency that lovingly and respectfully helped shaped our lives and made us who we are today.

Ah, unrequited love. From the dawn of time, many have been there and the memories, like a seared scar, last a lifetime. Still, it’s all part of life’s journey and hopefully we come out of it stronger and better prepared for the many life challenges ahead. Hopefully 🙏🏽

This is simply beautiful poetry set to beautiful music ...with a beautiful singer. ❤

Baby Reindeer introduced me to this one and I'm so glad it did

It’s April 19, 2024. It was a warm, mostly sunny day in the valley, here in Stanislaus county. Greetings to you.
Maybe, by the time you read this yt comment “ it” had already kicked off. I don’t know about the future, but I can connect the dots. If the bloodlust feeds with no remorse then that will be the end of this once, Constitutional Republic. I served honorably in the United States Army, this breaks my heart. But not my Spirit. In my humble opinion, presently there is a small number of individuals who are giving orders to essentially every major organization, such as; every nation, all financial entities, the military, NGOs, the media, etc.
… and considering the pulse of what’s going on- it must be obvious to anyone that they are not going to protect the people of the cities and the suburbs and maybe even further out.
Repent of your sins and put your trust and faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. He is the Way.

Bob Dylan vibes

ahhh thank you gentle man Donovan - for this ... an anthem in my life.... since I was a little girl - and now too - as a grandmother a dreamer a lover - trying to catch the wind

It's hard I am from south Africa. Love you
Please don't blame me.

Bet Dylan wishes he wrote this incredible song.

God, it's so beautiful..

👏👏🇧🇷🇮🇱💙

This song was Bob Dylan’s masterpiece. No one ever sang it like Donovan.

They could only come up with 3 photos. ?

Maravilloso!!! Es un temazo!!!!

Sounds like a Bob Dylan song

God bless you 🙏🏿

I just gave a thumbs up wen I read a beautiful comment regarding Donovan's 'Catch the Wind' song that wen played is for longing for a lost husband of 34 years & I was so deeply touched I thought it was as beautiful as the song itself Thankyou for sharing 🙏

LYRICS:
n the chilly hours and minutes
Of uncertainty, I want to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind
To feel you all around me
And to take your hand along the sand
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
That would make me sing
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standing in your heart
Is where I want to be, and I long to be
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

Regarded by this songwriter as golden lines beautifully strung together like a daisy chain of dreams and thoughts.

OH! The 60's! Music was outstanding!

Nice looking girls, a few brews, great tunes. I thought I had it all so now when I hear songs like this while rubbing my new knee replacement, popeye arm from bulling a Motorcycle off the pavement, I realize this is the best it’s going to get.

The British Bob Dylan

Love ❤this

‘Twas beautiful to meet Donovan at Sweetwaters NZ, 1999. Thank you Donovan.
And thank you to my father, for introducing us initially while I was still in utero 1977!
Peace and love to you Donovan 💜 and Dad who is now with the angels 🩵

Folk music is the music of the heart. What a decade of great music.

My cousin DONAVEN LOVE TPU

I met Donovan approximately 10 years after he had written this!.

I had this included in my husband’s funeral. 52 years of marriage

My fave Donovan song, love the lyrics!💖💕

This song is very calm like water,

to bunny who gave me the rrecord

Donovan - Catch the wind 1117am 14.2.24 dont mind him, to be honest - olde donovan. i'm hardly johnny cum lately in th elistening stakes but... i need to state the obvious re: his influencing butthole surfers and the likes of colourblind james experience not to mention a myriad indie pop kids. cool... they stole my mellow yellow single, sir...

So many idiots make this wonderful song about themselves 😰

One word..GENIUS

The comments are a bit depressing.

Such a beautiful song!

I'm in 2024 I have 42 years old and I am here because I loved the Arjen Lucassen covers in his album Strange Hobby. All covers from 1960's songs.
