Don't Think Twice, It's Alright - Bob Dylan (The Other Favorites Cover) 

I'm a 60 year old acoustic player who just lost his guitar partner of 48years. This is what we did . I cry. Thank God it will continue

Once you discover this channel you simply can't stop watching

“I gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul” what a line

I'm a 65 year-old Bob Dylan fan and have heard everybody and their brother cover this song. You two have just made my day and I thank you.

I discovered Bob Dylan when I was about your age. I'm 74 now and I think its great that people your age are playing his music.

How good of Bob Dylan to write this song for you.

10 years later and this version is still my go to. Perfection ❤️

What new media has created is the ability to literally watch people grow up. I have seen these “kids” growing up both as people and musicians and artist. Probably one of the greatest side benefits of social platforms. Just so friggin’ cool.

i gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.

Simon and garfunkel probably started somehow like this...you guys sound amazing.

The Other Favorites is a superteam. Josh is a good singer and an extremely talented beast in the instruments. Carson is a good guitarist who has a voice that makes all other singers sound pale in comparison. And both are superb in authoring original songs too.

If you have just found this now then you are super lucky because there is 9 years more worth of music you can now listen to created by these legendary guys. I'd like to imagine Bob Dylan sitting back watching these guys and thinking to himself "Yep I definitely did good."

1:28 - Ab to A transition note + harmonies = most beautiful thing ever...

I have been following Josh Turner for over a year now and I never fail to be in awe of his talent. I'm 75 and have been playing banjo for 25 years. I feel like a beginner next to him - and not even talking mandolin, guitar, bass uke and lute!

So much talent in the world and all we hear on the radio is crap. Glad guys like this persevere in the face of it all. Good job boys.

You guys did a pretty good, sensitive, authentic, and respectful rendition of this song. I really enjoyed it. I am 76. The first time I heard Bob Dylan sing I was a senior in high school. He sang a song on the Ed Sullivan TV variety show -- just a random guest appearance. They introduced him as a "folk singer." "Ladies and gentlemen, our next performer is a folk singer. Please welcome Bob Dylan." He came out with a guitar and a harmonica. He sang "The Ballad of Horace Brown." I thought "This guy is really different. This is not a folk song. He is putting them on. He is making a statement. They don't even realize. This is so cool. This is a song for right now. This is about the civil rights movement right now. This ain't no stinking folk song from the past." I was a fan of and supporter of Martin Luther King Jr. and later marched with him. Later that night, I thought: "Dylan (and others) are bringing the tradition of folk music into the present. This is important." I made a mental note to follow him. The next time I was in a record store I found his album "Free Wheeling" and bought it. This song, along with "Blowing in the Wind" and "Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" were on it. I "got it" as they say. It was so good I had to share it with everyone I knew. With that album he became the poet lauriat of my generation. As I listened to that record I and my friends joined my generation. My freshman year in college, in the dorm, Bob Dylan's songs were all we talked about. None of us had ever heard anything like it. And it just kept coming. He was so cool. In 1967, they did a documentary of his "Don't Look Back" tour of England. I watched it in a movie theatre. There is a scene of him arriving at an airport randomly holding a great big light bulb. An aggressive reporter rushes up to him and says "Tell us Mr. Dylan, what is the essence of your message." That is the dumbest question you can ask an artist. The obvious answer is, "If I could say it in a sentence, I would not need art." Dylan smiled, and was so totally cool. He said "Be good, and carry a big light bulb." All the young people in that theatre laughted their heads off. The older folks did not get it.

I once thought that I was a musician. That all ended when I found this channel. I am terribly critical of all musicians and though I tried to spot some sort of break in the rythym or a sour harmony or even a mispronounced lyric.I found nothing but shear devotion towards the song. You guys have that "lost in space" kind of look when you are into a song. It's a look you don't see very often and by only a few artists. All I can say is that I AM A HUGE FAN !!!!!!

"You are just kinda wasted my, precious time" 2:55 Goosebumps all day

The boys looked young back then, their music was already excellent; they have gone on to be even better.

You two were born to sing together.

I'm trying to decide if I should use this incredible cover as inspiration to become better at guitar myself, or if I should use it as a sign to quit whilst I'm ahead

Next to Dylan himself this is the best version Iv'e heard.

When you two harmonize, I feel it in my veins. I can't explain it any better than that.

I just can't get enough of this. The whole spectrum. The picking, harmonizing, the feeling. Gives me goosebumps without fail.

Ever been speechless but compelled to comment? Yeah that

This is what it would look like if John Lennon and Paul McCartney had a RU-vid channel as teens

2:45 Such a devastating verse. “You just kinda wasted my precious time” That last line sticks the knife in and twists it.

Still haven't found a better version. ❤

Makes me feel great faith in life and the universal mind that young people can do this with such feeling of old souls..

I've probably listened to this once a week for a year or so. And I can't believe I've not left a comment. Maybe words just fail me. You boys just bring all these classic songs back to life. And it brings so many of us pure joy. Thank you!

I hope you feel proud to know your cover has been enjoyed by millions of people. I just stumbled upon it (11 years late) and I'm so happy to see you're still making music to this day. Best of luck, guys. This was wonderful.

This is one of the finest gifts to be found on RU-vid. Thanks for sharing your remarkable talents.

my favorite cover i listen to it every night

I so wonder if Mister Bobby D himself has viewed this ... I am sure if he did he would be greatly moved ... what a lovely and pure rendition of his classic. If he did, I would picture him tipping his hat with a nod a wink and a smile .. knowing that this generation has a great respect for the past and carries it into the future faithfully with passion, skill, and clarity.

Hands down the best cover I've found of this song.

The part where you do the walk down to the Am singing “myyyyy precious time” was PERFECTION!! 🙌🏻 2:55

i keep coming back to this video. i love it.

This is the original key and the way Dylan played on the original recording - Key of E, w/ a capo at fret 4. These guys are good. And real. Josh is doing some flourishes of his own, but this is very close to the 50 year old version of this timeless song. Man, I've been watching Josh's videos for about an hour now and I am impressed. He seems to play all styles and adapt flawlessly to each, along with his friends who are really good, too. especially their vocals. I'd not seen these prior to earlier today. Kid can play!

My dad passed away last year. Dylan was his favourite. I thought I cryed all tears already. Hearing your version I have some more. You are class act :)

I believe Dylan would be proud of this cover! "The light I never knowed." Those words, right there, lyrics, they hit home.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate lyrics of this song? It can be only written by a poet called Bob Dylan. I love how you laugh and cry to this song at the same time.

You guys kick some serious ASS!! Awesome guitar, awesome singer, AWESOME harmonies!!! Thanks

Dylan is one of the few who can write a great song without a bridge verse. Just great poetry.

This boy can sing. And in his style, no one else's. The pair are good. These two could go far.

This moved me to tears this morning.

In the same way that Simon and Garfunkel’s voices were simply meant to exist together.. and complement the other so beautifully, so do yours guys.. it’s a privilege to listen to you do such justice to this classic Dylan song. Much respect.

Perfect....it's like going back 45 years, when Dylan came into my life...and it was with this song. Bravo.

How beautiful, the way kids this age have it all to give to a song. None of the weight or noise of the adult world to detract from the music or the poem.

this is one of the more honest and authentic covers of this song i have ever heard. I have heard this song live, many many times i have heard this song recorded many many times this is by far, hands down the best version i have ever listened to Thank You

Jesus Christ that was amazing.

I wonder often why god gives all of the talent to a few of the people, when so many of us would love to have just one of the gifts... but then I listen to this and I know. As much as I want to play this well, or sing this well or have a bit of this to play... I get to listen to this. Then it all makes sense. I wish god had blessed me with the talent, but at least he blessed me with the ears to hear it. Thank you.

12 years ago I discovered you guys, I was barely 16, not sure if this would be a lasting channel, and not even suspecting your channels would turn up to be that consistently good since then. Despite having the same musical influences as you guys, it's unreal to think that in the end, I grew up with you guys, with your music. And look at us now, all grown up, all adults, or at least supposed to be. Time does fly indeed, at an alarming rate, but I don't regret the one I invested in your channel, thanks for this.

This was fantastic.

When the harmonies kicked in, I actually got goose bumps !!! That was powerful !!!!

I consider myself a strong man who can handle most things but you two just made me cry. Absolutely amazing, but then I did something I should not have I looked at the upload date. You two must have been in your mid teens. There goes my music career I am just going to listen to you two and live a happy man.

For two young men to sing this with such feeling, I am amazed. Thank you! "I gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul!". I didn't learn this lesson until I was decades older.

These guys are unbelievable. And this was done 7 years ago (2011).. they were kids. Super talents these two are!

You ever feel funny leaving a comment on RU-vid? Like it’s somewhat narcissistic that anyone would be at all interested in what a stranger had to say? But then you see something that moved you, and you feel obligated to document it? Well yeah... that

I love Carson’s sly smile towards the end. I think behind this smile is the thought and the happiness of knowing that they’ve got a really good take and that it could be THE take they use, and also he’s just really enjoying the lovely music they’re making together. Well I can say wholeheartedly that we are enjoying that music with you Carson.

Love the harmony! Both of you guys have great voices, but together is really special.

Perfect ... absolutely perfect. Pack it up and hit the stage. If you had a concert I would buy a ticket for sure. You guys could be a modern day Everly Brothers / Simon and Garfunkel. The passion here is epic ... you guys sing and play from the soul. I am a fan. Kudos guys !

Dylan would be proud...

Been a fan of these guys about a year now. This was the first song I ever heard from them,, such a lovely cover of perhaps the best Dylan love song I can think of. This song moves my soul. These kids make me smile to listen. Many of their covers are beyond words fantastic. Please don't stop making music and I promise not to stop listening.

Your voices by themselves are great but when you both sing the sound waves collide and turn into a very ear pleasing totally different sound. Excellent spot on sound, you really are accomplished singers. Bob would be proud of you.

Whoa! Didn't anyone inform you, you can't be this good this young! Couple of old souls right here.

With the harmonica, this cover would get an absolute 10/10

The best don't think twice, it's alright cover i've heard.........EVER! This is really amazing! Carson's voice plus josh's guitar is gold!

That’s how you ought to sing a Nobel-Prize-Winning song!

Ur youth and talent are not lost on us! Thank God there's still real music alive in the new generation 🙌

7 years later, The Other Favorites are still kicking it. Amazing how far you men have come since way back here. Love both Josh and Carson...superb talents!

First time I heard Dylan... Circa 1963. Riding with my grandad in his pickup down a back road. Blowing in the Wind came on an AM station. I knew at 5 years old that that song was more than I could understand. But I understood enough to know that it was an incredible song. I would listen for it every afternoon for a good while after that because they played the same song list everyday. I remember thinking after awhile some answers must hard to find....

Not many performances of this song do the subject matter justice. This is not a song to roll through "a good cover". It means something. You fellas capture it just right.

Wow. This is a stupendous cover of Dylan's classic.

A couple of true masters doing a wonderful rendition

I been singing that song for fifty six years...grew up with Dylan. I felt him in you.

A friend of mine in Manhattan and I have been enjoying sharing our discoveries of Josh and his many musically talented friends.

This is my favourite Dylan song and you guys do it so well. Thank you, a simply excellent performance.

These young men have matured musically, but this is good at any age. Very talented. Thanks!

The way he hit that note on “traveling on” was beautiful

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard

Of all the covers of this masterpiece, this one is by far the best. Captures the essence of Dylan while adding your own cues. A cover that Bob himself would be proud of.

why are there actual tears in my eyes. the guitar playing is just...phenomenal

I can't express how much I'm in love with that harmony you two have when you play together

The more of your music I hear. The More I Want To Hear! I've been listening for weeks now. You both are absolutely awesome artist! I'm in Love!

Man ! I wish I was born to play, like these polished players. How cool is it to see all these awesome videos, sit-in' here with my magic, know it all light box, feeding on pure talent.

Every time I watch this it gets better and better

34 and love that good music is known by the younger generation. What a cover. You kept its integrity but made it your own. Respect and props. Maybe the future is bright

it is scary how great you guys are at such a young age. i loved your school project the exeter whaling ship. great great picking. Carson you voice and phrasing is simply great.

That was absolute quality. I watched it again straight away. Loving that.

Glad to see Young people playing real songs. Lots of talent.

Magic. I stop for 5 minutes here and there to listen to your crew. Something very special going on here. Its what lifes all about. Thank you.

2:09 - "I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul" Oof... such a profound lyric.

I just watched the Sunday Morning Coffee version of this song from Reina and Joni where they mentioned this version. Two totally different versions, both wonderful. I needed something special and I got it.

Excellent ! Josh It must have been uncomfortable for your Mama when she gave birth ! I reckon you came out playing that guitar ! Carson and Josh GREAT job excellent harmonies ! Hope you go on to MAJOR success in life

Absolutely fantastic cover.

Wow!!! What excellent picking. Beautiful song. Thank you.

Their age is so defying. This is AMAZING Work.

Your music, though covers, makes me weep in joy. I love your music. Keep it up guys. You fucking rule

2020 and 3 million views, 9 years ago. The sound is still fantastic. We look forward to seeing you in Australia when the world is open for business again. You guys are up there with the best. Take care.

I just find it fascinating kids of this age, digs and counters. God did bless music, it is the universal language.
