Need something soothing as 2016 finally (finally!) draws to a close?

Let Patti Smith's rendition of Bob Dylan's "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" make you cry and then build you back up. Smith performed the rendition at the Nobel Prize ceremony in Stockholm, where an absent Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Like us all, Smith needed a little moment to make it through the song. But she, like you, will make it to the end.
