Rick Danko/It Makes No Difference/1997

The first time I heard this song I thought it was a work of genius by Robbie and that Rick did a good job with it. And then I heard it again and I realized that Robbie's genius included writing it with Rick in mind.

Legend.

This energy plays on!

Its so sad his decline. The last waltz was only 21 years earlier

Near paying life’s bill and the talent shines!

I watch and listen to the band all the time. Rest in peace My friends. Hang in there garf.

❤tygosh

Talent plants it existence for eternity! Amazing!

My favorite version. God bless you Rick! ❤

Miss ya Rick, an the rains fall down on my door

Loved hum.always will

This makes a big difference.

Rick's swan song. No one can own it. RIP, Rick. Wish they were still with us😓

💙 Rick Danko !! You and your music are missed every day !

God I love Rick Danko and this song forever ❤️❤️‼️‼️

I never felt so alone before.

I am still alive

Rick sings it exactly how we all feel when heartbroken. I don't think it could be any more soulful and true.

I can't figure out why Rick Danko touched me the way he did.
But he did.

He was one of the best without a doubt, It Makes No Difference is such a sad but beautiful song…👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

At least Robby has all his money still

wow, he was so unknown

Love from Italy... I've seen The movie the last waltz when I was 16....and this song got stuck in my hearth although I didn't understand English at that time.... After learning the language... And the story of the band... Levon helm... Rick danko... Garth.... And the bad actions of robbie Robertson.... I feel this song more than ever... And the last waltz is the only CD i keep in the car...

RIP Rick, thank you for giving us your voice.

The man was a genius taken away far too soon. RIP Rick, what a song it's beautiful.

this is almost too much to bear - so raw -

To get here Rick , you walked down to many roads alone. Rip me. angel voice- thanks for sharing the beauty, wished you had less pain.

Still sounds beautiful, but so sad to see Rick's decline

I haven’t listened to this in a while...and it’s bittersweet, poignantly so, I miss Rick, and The Band.
I miss the Country we had when we had them, as imperfect as it was, it wanted to be better even
if it took 4 Canadiens to bring out our Americana roots in response to the British Invasion.
We’re regressing now...like in one of my other favorites by Rick, “Stage Fright”, that revealed their
growing sense of anxiety and cynicism...

Rick and Richard break my heart everytime they solo

I cried the first time I heard him sing this song , 40 years later I sit here listening , damn it I'm cryin' again . Miss you Rick

There is no point anyone else singing this song. It can only work with Rick singing it. A masterpiece of a song. An emotionally perfect song.

So brilliant, and yet so sad. Isint that’s what music should do for us.

Oh Rick. Thank you.

This is terribly tragic to view. He would live only 7 months longer.
My favorite song of all time.
Grateful Rick has now found some peace...

Rick had only two years left when this was recorded, a great talent who died way too young. His soulful voice could make magic with a melody and lyrics like this. When Robbie Robertson wrote this song, he wrote it exclusively for Rick to sing because he knew his was the only voice who could give it the sense of loss despair that it needed. Richard is gone, Rick is gone, Levon is gone. Only Garth and Robbie remain. Thank you Rick.

Rick Danko - showing respect to the 'Deads". Don't get any better . . . "anymore".

Miss Jerry and Rick Danko and just randomly came back to watch this video tonight...23 years ago today!!! I also MISS Japan right now during this global shutdown!!!

Vibration

His passionate humble soul shines through more brightly than ever. Rick's always touched us in a special place. That's all that matters....I actually prefer this version to all of the others....RICK, YOU WILL LIVE IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER

Very emotive song and voice, RIP Rick (and Richard and Levon, of course).

Can you hear that singing? Sounds like gold.

Rick took the loss of Richard very hard.... his rendition of this song brings me to tears....

Despite his spiraling condition he is able to evoke beauty in the melancholy....a lonesome serenade ....a heartwrenching yet poetic splendor.

Rest in peace Rick thank you for the music

2018!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

My tears don't rescue me but this music helps,

Favorite (among Band's songs, well, one of the..)...*!

You will always be awesome in my book Rick Danko...R.I.P. and thank you for all the years you gave us with some of the best music bar none.

this keeps me alive
