Someone's Got a Hold of My Heart
An Infidels outtake, released in 1991 on The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3.
The words
An early version of the song he later reworked for Empire Burlesque.
The speaker is caught in a love he cannot shake, haunted by a woman who seems to have power over him and feeling watched and unsettled wherever he goes. The verses move through restless nights and vague threats, with the title returning as a confession of helplessness. The tone is brooding and tense. This Infidels outtake is the earlier version of the song that he later reworked for Empire Burlesque.
