"Ironically this is the song in his catalogue that is closest to down home blues. like one of his heroes Milton, he strives in this song to be a rejuvenator and a prophet for his chosen genre. he is literally rewriting the rules of the blues. in this song the blues do not have to necessarily reflect guilt, regret, melancholy. instead it can be an outlet for rationally reasoning through a tough situation. the difference between him and Milton is that he does not care whether or not he reaches you to the point of wanting to mimic him, he wants to touch you through empathy, and he succeeds."
