"Heed the quest to seek the sun" - The sun causes cancer.
I think people should choose their outlet, do away with all vices and then theres just depression and downward. So put your energy into places in the community need the real help and you wouldn't have to worry so much about vices. Look how well prohibition worked. Helped the gangsters line their pockets but the people wasn't goin to be told what they could have. Fix the bigger things first, then you'll see it filter down. Just seems common sense to me. Most people are gonna be a slave to something, media, the man, family or even their own sense of belonging. Very few gets out of the trap. ****
That's one hell of a road to travel down especially when you get physical symptoms and get increasingly worse. Any immediate family of mine were alcoholics or amphetamine/uppers users so mine that was with years and years of opiate addiction was never shown to me in such form and fuck man, so when my lil bro or sis & children we're and are old enough to understand after tryin some smoke, I urged them for God sake never pick that habit up it's honestly worse than literally killing yourself and it's more painstakingly worse to watch someone you love more than yourself go through it and can't help at all. Sucks fucking ass bro
@@murdaface6606 I hope you're doing alright now man, addiction is a poison on all our lives. Doesn't matter what you're addicted to, when it sets it your mind that that is all you need, it becomes a problem.
If Buffy Sainte-Marie hadn't gotten pneumonia, she may have never written this song. Covered by several groups, Donovan and Buffy's versions are certainly the best.
I'm happy I got to see this man live!! It was an amazing show and he told a bunch of cool story's between songs. This is by far one of the best covers of this song.
Yes, I agree, never been a fan of D but since the theme is of great concern I started listening to this version (between Joplin, Marie et.al) it is a very good rendering and your description of that concert is very pleasant to imagine. Greetings from Chris!
Saying Donovan copied Dylan is like saying Roger Mcguinn copied Dylan and Tom Petty copies McGuinn copying Dylan. Don't be so critical, these men have a particular sounding voice that has characteristics and vocal timbre similar to Dylan's but are unique to themselves and reflect the singer's style. Besides all three have a far better singing voice than Dylan in quality and ability to stay in key.
+aluffarb He really did try to copy Dylan, though... Just listen to Donovan's first two albums, the resemblance is uncanny, especially in his harmonica playing. He may be a great musician, but he was always one step behind Dylan.
Imitation is the highest form of flattery. I agree that there are definitely elements of Dylan's musical style and vocals in Donovan's songs and sound, but that's true of many other musicians. Dylan has influenced 3 generations of musicians since he first emerged on the national/international scene 55 years ago. Music in general has always been an exercise in building upon what came before. Even Dylan built upon his predecessors (like Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger/The Weavers, et. al.). True innovators and creators of revolutionarily new sounds are an extreme rarity. The true talent is to take a sound and create something new out of it. There is no doubt Donovan has accomplished that and so much more. He has taken basic folk music and worked in British madrigal/minstrel/traditional music, psychedelia, jazz, calypso, and rock/pop and created his own immutable style. Yes, one can detect Dylan in the mix, but Donovan's music is always clearly identifiable as Donovan. He is also by a significant degree, a far more superior guitarist and vocalist (especially in his younger years) than Dylan.
Dylan and Donovan where and remain good friends, as for copying Dylan, they influenced each other. give him the respect he is due as a songwriter a guitarist a singer and a poet, 3rd of sept is now Donovan day in L.A 50 YEARS IN THE BUSINESS AND STILL GOING STRONG!
Not until did I lose the love of my life over substance abuse, alcohol, xanax, and pain maintenance for a spinal injury did I clean my act up... this song is too accurate ... "and its REAL one more time" .... Do what donovan did...when you find him or her...BANISH THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE INTO THE DARKNESS.
Donovan's version is too close to Buffy's and misses the emotional level. It feels like he is distant from what he is singing about. Listen to the Charlatans version which increases the emotion and in which the singer seems really concerned. Now, this is just my opinion among other's. Not every song has the chance to be discussed as much as "Codine"...
Dada Veda duh u better than dy or dk who r u what mysuc did u make lets hear it then i will listen to your critique. you check it out most all critics are otherwise useless WANNABES who can are doing their best and hurting others in the process... its no one's fault and does no good to blame anyone. besides, check it out any great artist or musician if they be honest of any sort will gladly say that they failed a lot before they succeeded hard to find an honest person at all even. also check it out the fact is any art is derivative and if I have to explain that then it's of no use peace to you and yours and maybe some love too thank you
Only a real donovan fan would know these things,a deeper fellow to truly understand their meaning,all one has to do is listen. Don't live your life without bending to drink is the most important part besides the obvious.
I listened to Janis Joplins Version and it was amazing this one is amazing to man you listen to one great artist she’ll bring you to love so many different artists to how ever Janis will always be my favorite artist and first song to play on guitar
i REMEMBER BUYING CODEINE AND TERMINHYDRATE ELIXOR, ALL i WANTED FROM PHRAMACIES IN MILWAUKEE. A bottle from the pharmacist cost about $3.50 retail. THIS IS BACK EARLY 70'S
No, it was the other way around. Donovan influenced Nick Drake. One of Drake's favourite albums was Mellow Yellow by Donovan, which is said to have significantly influenced him.
"My mother and father said whiskeys a curse but the fate of their baby is many times worse" fucking crushes me as someone who was told this his whole life, went on to become an alcoholic, got sober for like 2 years and am now hopelessly addicted to opiates... fuck me
when it comes to stealing, copying, transmutating and the basic juke and jive, Dylan was the master of it all - he took from everyone man. He basically channeled Woody Guthie for years copying his every move and vocal inflection which was divine and honorable and look at what all the stealing and copying did for us - gave us finally at the newport festival the ultimate young bobby dylan after having written some of the most profoundly inspired folk songs ever written by one person. So, when anybody is trying to or actually copying bob dylan who the hell knows who that person may become. Afterall, donovan was pr'd and touted as the british version of dylan in the 60's. And he was and look at all the original song writing that came from that. Brilliant song writers. No equals in the genre unless you go back to old OLD Appalachia turn of the century america or black folk songs. Thanks donovan and Dylan, well, what can one say? A gift from the spirit realm. Peace. There can be nobody ever to duplicate what he actually did - so copy away.
you can talk about the negative effects of drugs and alcohol and still do drugs and drink. its called being honest and vulnerable and speaking from experience. some people act like you have to pick a side on every issue and have to die on every hill. peope are complicated, people are nuanced. Donovan is an artist in every sense of the word and a true artist can explore every part of their own reality whether good or bad
Boss, thanx for this, never heard Donovan do it before. Always thought the song was by Buffy St. Marie, now I wonder if she just adopted it. Anyway, great version, love it, and now must look up who wrote it, so yeh
IT WAS WRITTEN BY BUFFY SAINTE MARIE AND HER VERSION IS THE BEST! BUFFY ALSO WROTE UNIVERSAL SOLDGER. DONOVAN IS NOT GOOD AT GIVING HER THE WRITER CREDITS :(
There seems to be a little confusion about the origin and release of this song, First, yes the original was released in 1964 written by Buffy-St Marie. Donovan recorded a DEMO version never released in 1965....in 1970 he finally released a rerecorded version of CODINE using. Another verson was released UK ONLY LP Essense to Essence. It was also released on his Troubadour Box set.Yo ucan say this was a precursor to Neil Young's Needle and The Damage. The sound is that of all the folkies of 1965.
In my opinion Bob Dylan and Donovan are both great writers but I prefer Donovan's voice over Bob's. I've noticed that many groups have devoted entire albums to covering Bob Dylan's songs,such as the Byrds, the Hollies, Joan Baez, and "Dylan and The Dead" (with Bob Dylan). I guess it's just a matter of opinion, I really do Love them both. Peace and Music, Paisley Tom /PS Bob Dylan has written more songs than Donovan but not as many as Duke Ellington, I am told.
Townes Van Zant----Now I'm out of prison I got me a friend at last He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie His name's Codine He's the nicest thing I've seen Together we're gonna wait around and die Together we're gonna wait around and die
But... unless you have infinite $ resources AND a reliable connection (which is an oxymoron, of course), then the withdrawal is integral to the addiction. So it's a distinction w/o a difference.
Though some of the changes he made to the lyrics seem a bit pointless I think this is still my favourite version of this song. Just wish it wasn't so biographical for me.
I have no clue about what you are saying! The Animals and Airplane were on vinyl, what, 2 years after Buffy' first album? So you must mean it was before your awakening to most of the music that was before your time. Or maybe you just don't know what you mean!
You place it on the turntable, stopped but rotating free, put the needle on the end of the record, then rotate it backwards by hand. It doesn't do the needle a lot of good. Nowadays you get the title "MC" for doing that!. "They're Coming to Take Me Away, Haha" was recorded backwards on the B side.
I have seen it and I agree that he totally embarrassed himself in that scene. That still doesn't make Dylan a better singer, it just makes him an obvious bully.
Homie I've heard so many just fuckin horrific stories bout methadone kicks be a monster let them nuts hang n fuckin eat that pain n suffering for breakfast lunch n dinner... AND A MIDNIGHT SNACK!!!
@@LifeBloodMarketing I think I’m being an idiot, but lemme go try that again lol. Thank you. I’ve been doing add9s and it doesn’t seem low enough, I dropped down half a step and that wasn’t right either. However, I’m pretty sleep deprived so it’s worth another look, thanks again. I love the Denis Leary song 🎵
This song hit hard when i was withdrawing from adderall addiction. Please let this be a warning: adderall is amphetamines and physically addictive. The withdrawal was the most painful distressing thing I’ve ever experienced (was legally prescribed in school, it ultimately rattled my brain so much I did worse). was the worst thing ever, if you’re a student don’t even touch the stuff I beg you lol

" and it's real , and it's real one more time . "
That gives me chills
"If I live til tomorrow, 's gonna be a long time" is the one I shiver at. Worse than anything else I've known, rattling.
Powerful for anyone suffering with a serious addiction, that lyric "one more time.." That sums addiction up
I heard that
Word brother.
'One more time' it once was that and true to the core, but then that became just "One", something, anything to feel better any little bit.
That's one hell of a road to travel down especially when you get physical symptoms and get increasingly worse.

Thanks!
+Ron Stewart I agree with all you. But the cover by The Last Internationale is very good too
+Ron Stewart Joplin's ain't bad, either... None of the covers have anything on the Saint-Marie's original, though, in my opinion.
The most Bob Dylan-ish non Bob Dylan song I've ever heard. All due respects and gratitude.
This song really helped me while withdrawing from and quitting adderall (amphetamine) ♥️
song give me chillz never going down that path again
Amen.
Hope you're still on the right path, friend.
It's a rough road.

And it's real, and it's real one more time - Donovan starkly presents this classic song, his voice is authentic here.
This must be a very early recording.
Saying Donovan copied Dylan is like saying Roger Mcguinn copied Dylan and Tom Petty copies McGuinn copying Dylan. Don't be so critical, these men have a particular sounding voice that has characteristics and vocal timbre similar to Dylan's but are unique to themselves and reflect the singer's style.

If you enjoy Donovan i recommend you read his autobiography
" The Hurdy Gurdy Man"
the early part is particularly brilliant.
Also read Gypsy Dave Mills autobiography "Knight of the Road".
I have it and it is splendid!!
This song has such presence, for years humans have struggled with the addiction to painkillers..
more relevant now than ever because of the current fentanyl crisis prevalent among the youth.
He is not copying Dylan on this song. It follows the arrangement of Buffy St. Marie's version (he also picked up Universal Soldier from her)
Donovan's version is too close to Buffy's and misses the emotional level. It feels like he is distant from what he is singing about.

Janis cannot touch Buffy Sainte-Marie.
Yes, well good for the young man to honor her version-I used to listen to her version in late ‘60’s
He does a very good job on this song. The Janis Joplin version is also good.
Damn good version.

This is a great cover by Donovan of a song written by Buffy St. Marie.
Buffy St. Marie....the biggest fake in the world. LOL

Donovan... Unreal!!
Donovan has the best comeback of all time.. "..not so much was i trying to be a young Bob Dylan as i was trying to be a Woodie Guthrie.." Mic drop
another song I love by donovan
Getting a Mick Jagger / Donovan vibe here.. and I like it!
Donovan - Codine ... Folk blues!
Bluegrass
Masterpiece.
Napoleon XIV, wow, I still have that record. Love the B side, backwards.
The guitar cords andd style so reminds me of, The war drags on.
It certainly does. I think the guitar is tuned to D cord
the litter did such a great cover
I love these songs that capture the dark side of humanity:- look after yourselves y'all
my favorite cover of the song was by the litter.
No, it was the other way around. Donovan influenced Nick Drake. One of Drake's favourite albums was Mellow Yellow by Donovan, which is said to have significantly influenced him.
"its a hard, it's a hard rain gonna fall"- ah no! It's Donovan :)
THIS IS THE BEST
The "Litter" does a good job on this song. I guess that you have to really try hard to mess up such a good song.
As does The Quick Silver Messenger Service.
Codeine the best friend i ever had Townes van Zandt
I haven't heard Janis Joplin's version, but I can't imagine anyone but Buffy Sainte Marie singing this song. She expresses pain with so much realism.
"My mother and father said whiskeys a curse but the fate of their baby is many times worse" fucking crushes me as someone who was told this his whole life, went on to become an alcoholic, got sober for like 2 years and am now hopelessly addicted to opiates... fuck me
JUDASSS!!!!!
@melora72 Thats not quite right my friend. Remember Dylan didnt invent folk. This is a Buffy St. Marie song for the record. You cant rip off folk...

Dylan's first album consists of other peoples songs or traditional folk tunes that he did not write.
