“All I can do is be me, whoever that is.” ~ Bob Dylan
“Emotionally Yours” was first launched onstage in February 1986 and appears on the album Empire Burlesque. It’s certainly not one of his better-known songs, but unlike the folk ballads and civil rights anthems of just a few years past, “Emotionally Yours” is a love song.

This beautiful cover of “Emotionally Yours” is performed by Julie Kathryn:
One of the original members of the O’Jays died the “other day.” The O’jays performed this song on Dylan’s 30th Anniversary concert. Unique selection M!

Totally agree, Connie. And this song, especially this version, at first seems very un-Dylanesque.

“Empire Burlesque” is not one of Dylan’s best received albums (it’s very 1980s) but there are a couple of gems on it. This is one of them.
