Song comments:

BENEDICT: "This is a great spooky song. It seems completely out of place on Planet Waves which has mainly happy, upbeat songs. There is great paino work on this and it is very similar in style to Blind Willie Mctell. "I’ve paid the price of solitude, but at least I’m out of debt" – Genius" (September 06, 2006)

BERNHARD ROTH: "Just the first couple of words: I hate my self for loving you and the weakness that it shows…" (April 26, 2006)

DAVID WEISS: "showing triumph and tradegy only an addict knows!" (March 31, 2006)

IAN: "one of the great opening lines.fighting from the first bell." (March 03, 2006)
