Joan Baez 是六零年代的民謠歌后,她對民謠音樂的理解加上天生的近乎完美的嗓音使得她成為50年代之後民謠音樂中的一棵奇葩,多首作品成為很多民歌愛好者的至寶。
Joan Baez 瓊拜雅這位美國民謠之后,有好幾首學吉他者必備的傳世之作,如"Donna , Donna"、"The night they drove old Dixies down"及"Diamonds and rust"等。
瓊拜雅的嗓音清亮、純淨,技巧成熟,許多知名作曲家都樂意提供作品給她,因而她比較知名的曲子大都不是自己所寫,“Diamonds and rust.”是她自己譜寫的歌曲中最為人熟知的一首。
這首歌的歌詞冗長,意象繁複,難以了解其中意涵,原因是歌詞中所講的是瓊拜雅個人的一段戀情。
瓊拜雅於50年代末投入美國民歌運動,進入60年代,她遇見了巴布狄倫(Bob Dylan,被尊稱為“民謠搖滾之父”,寫出過多首名曲),兩人惺惺相惜,彼此都十分賞識對方的才華,而展開了一段秘密戀情。
這段感情最後無疾而終,1975年,瓊拜雅寫下這首曲子,紀念當年兩人亦師亦友的感情,後來“鑽石與鐵鏽”也被認為是她最好的一首創作曲。

Well , I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full and you happened to call
And here I sit, hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known a couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes
were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy, you said
"Where were you calling from?"
"A booth in the Midwest"
Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamond and rust
Well, you burst on the scene were already a legend
The unwatched phenomenon
The original vagabond you strayed into my arms
And there you stayed temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes, the girl on the half shell
Could keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling all around
Snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white cloud mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could've died then and there
Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who're so good with words and at keeping thing vague
Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes , I love you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid
