Video A song that’s maybe overlooked?

“Honest with Me” is a song from Love and Theft that I think gets overlooked even though it’s a cool, driving blues with great lyrics.
Here’s a live version from 2001, just a couple of months after the album’s release.

"Honest With Me" rocks like no one's business. Dylan's vocal is perfect.

Has been my favorite song from that album since my first listen on the day it was released. It's perfect.

In my opinion, 'Honest With Me' is one Dylan's least interesting songs. Just another boring two-bar blues stomper of which he has made too much already. There certainly wasn't a shortage of them on the album, with 'Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dumb', 'Lonesome Day Blues' and 'Cry a While'.
