@@user-vt4hd8hb4vI don't know that's what they're talking about. Bob Dylan is just not very well musically trained. That doesn't mean his singing is bad, the end result is great as it is and also it's kind of his style. People like it. But in this footage he is clearly struggling. Also, I think this doesn't have anything to do with how "big" he is. He's one of the greatest but his real strength lies more in poetry than in making music. It's kind of like putting a talented high school big band member into a top symphony orchestra, they're just not on the same musical level but they would probably still make great music together.
I’m down a We Are the World rabbit hole after watching the Netflix documentary. Very impressed with the work of Quincy Jones and the vocal arranger, Tom Bahler. It was fascinating to hear Bahler spot the beauty of each voice and use the contrasting styles for one purpose. The respect many of the artists had for one another was cool to watch also.
Stevie is harmonizing FOR Bob because he is fokking lost like Hansel and Gretel in the dark, deep forest, or even worse, he feels like in a jungle. Just no idea what to sing. pretty bad of a "legend."
@@kirilllllubnin I thought he was a singer-songwriter. Do you mean his lyrics and poetry works are better than singing? (His voice is tasteful but I know you can't say he is a good singer)
I remember watching the video when I was younger, in 1985, and thinking to myself "why does that guy singblike that?" I was born and raised in the Philippines and never heard of him until i came to live in the US. Watching the netflix documentary clearly made Bob Dylan's part my most favorite. And Stevie, what a phenomenal talent!
The guy at the Radio station I used to listen was also in love with his music, he used to play it all the time, it was nice listening to him introduce Bob as the Man and his music, that was years ago but I still remember
Osama Bin Laden He was the one that got them hooked on Marijuana and also the one that got them writing more literary stuff. Rolling stone has him ranked one on their list of most influential artists
The beauty of this song comes from everyone singing in their own style and not trying to be like everyone else. It wouldn't be as good without Bob Dylan's part.
There’s something so beautiful about this. All super stars In their different genres. No ego, no rushing, no tantrums, just dedicated artists working something out and supporting each other.
Huge respect for Dylan as someone not renowned for his amazing vocals to throw himself into this and stick with it. He was there all night and got the job done.
@rifstr he perfectly knows what he's good at, which is not singing "we are the world". he'd like to play it frankly without bringing aesthetic matters into play, but the fact that everybody is cheering him up is humiliating. so he sometimes has a hard time not telling them to shut the fuck up. like he didn't know that everybody knew it was just a matter of making it not so bad that it had to be cut, with no chance at all of it being "good". but everybody (apart from stevie) was too nervous to behave.
You can see how daunting it was for Bob to be around really great vocalists so it was great to see them being so helpful and encouraging to make him more comfortable.
Yep. And i think he knew it wasn’t his thing but if i remember right, he asked to be a part of it. I love Dylan and watching him and Stevie together is awesome.
Our man was after a coke & alcohol bender…its pretty obv…ofc they were supportive and encouraging because they wanted to wrap it up and get the next artist in to record

@@kingkong4934 he struggled probably because he got the lines only when he walked in. And then it's not his style at all. Then there is the question of comfort pitch. To be honest the condescending attitude in the room was off-putting. But that's prolly just me. In any case we don't know the background. We see a clip and jump to conclusions.

Bob není zpěvák pro sborový zpěv, je solitér a originál. Přesto to s pomocí zejména Stevieho krásně zvládl. Jeho projev je jedinečný a výjimečný. Je klenot. Obdivuji ho.
This is like discovering a forgotten VHS cassette of Bob's graduation elementary school exams where Stevie is moving around in his on world surrounded by angels, Diana is feeling herself, and Quincy as the perfect guiding teacher who will always be there for you and Lionel, the gentle host... The spirit of Michael is there from the start. Thank you for this stardom piece of history of art ✨🙏
You thought Diana was feeling herself? I found her to be very sweet--- asking people if they could autograph her sheet music, and crying that the experience was over at the end of the night.

Props to Bob. He was so out of his comfort zone and he did it anyway. And masterful producing by Q; smooth, encouraging and positive, even when Bob was floundering. And to have Stevie be your accompanist while you’re learning your part. Not bad at all.
The encouragement that he receives from Stevie, Quincy and Lionel is nothing short of amazing. That's why these people are great, they see the best in others.
Well, they needed to get home and get some food. It was obvious this cat wasn´t going to come trough by himself. Out of tune, out of rhythm and out of sense. Quincy was probably thinking about his recording session with Ringo. uffff
Bod Dylan ended up being one of my favorite song writer of time... A great storyteller. Listen to Knocking on heavens door, Shelter from the storm, How does it feel etc. A true Legend!
You can definitely tell this is out of his comfort zone and the fact that he was still willing to try and ask for help and everyone was being so kind to him is beautiful ❤️love this
To all aspiring musicians and artists out there: just make sure you get started and keep going. See? Even the absolute masters still had their moments of flaw and doubt. Learn as much as you can on the way, stay open, but, never let any lack/inability stop you from reaching.
Bob Dylan being Bob Dylan. We're lucky to see it in real time and I'll be honest, I appreciate seeing his insecurities among the world's top singers from that era. He's surrounded by encouraging artists, that's great to see.
If I sounded that bad, I'd be insecure too. Someone early on in life should have pulled him to the side & said "Bobby, maybe you should give up on singing & focus your attention on something more pleasing to the ears." May I suggest doily making. Song writing is a lost art I think you could excell in. But, please, under no circumstance should you ever come within 10 ft of a microphone. For the love of God, don't even look in the direction of a microphone.
@@yaksak2706 Nobel prize in literature, 51 successful albums, 200 sold out concerts a year, sold his song catalog for $350 million dollars. They’re all wrong. You’re right.

Yeah, he shouldn't have to struggle to remember the lyrics, considering how his own lyrics are among the most complicated out there (on a side note, I feel like my brain consists of 15% Dylan lyrics, I can recite plenty of them), but in the official video for this song many of the artists are looking at a sheet of paper, so it looks like they also struggled to remember the lyrics.
Clearly you never recorded a song while listening to it for the first time. Trust me, it's really hard to remember everything and sing at the same time...
bob dylan's voice suits his style, if you come accustomed to it you start to hear a beauty in his timbre. Him going out of his comfort zone for such a cause and absolutely killing it is amazing.
I’m sorry and I know that honest minds differ, but I think your affinity for Bob Dylan, understandable as it is, is biasing your judgment here. There’s just no respectful way to say it: he sounds horrible on this song and his voice is discernibly and noticeably of a lesser quality than literally every single other singer.
@@bredenis5 some people just prefer imperfect voices. I think he sounds awesome with his unique phrasing and adds just as much to the song as the others!
@@alexlackner1945 i’m really trying to appreciate your point of view and I’m not necessarily disagreeing but kind of thinking in my mind would somebody say the same thing about somebody who was playing an instrument poorly? I don’t know that there would be any type of affinity for or appreciation of somebody playing something off key and chalk it up to their nuanced style.
@@bredenis5good point but think of the punk movement or bands like pavement. They made a pretty good living out of playing their instruments rather poorly and even off-key! Or the way Josh Homme alters his scales to give QOTSA songs their unique vibe. Or Tom Waits' junkyard percussion... there are many examples in music where going against the grain can produce something very interesting and unique. Yes it may be an aquired taste and not for everyone - but there's nothing i find more bland and boring than casting shows looking for the "perfect" voice...
This is just beautiful one legend to another great legend Bob Dylan.. Still to this day this tears me.. to all the greatest legends we lost.. RIP.. we are definitely the world...
Amazing to see Quincy, Lionel and Steve coaching Bob to the finish line. Dylans voice is so unique and beatiful. He just needed a little help. What a Team!
at 6:33 he turns to look at Stevie and points, without realising that he turns to speak to a blind guy while there's music playing, hand gesture hilarious...
@@RG-pi4xr nah, I think he chose Stevie, because, he likely was the one he knew best. They started out at the same time, whereas most of the others were a new generation.
@Donna King, yeah it's not his style here that's the issue, his voice is just shot to hell. And I was a teen loving Dylan and now a senior citizen loving the teen Dylan. Not sure quite what went wrong with his voice. Could be some health issue - ?? Love his style too though, man this was quite rough he could have sung it not sure why he was so confused. I found it hard to watch...there are other clips of singers not getting their parts right either though the focus on a legend will get you more clicks!!
@@carolyndiffenderfer6181 He never wrote a song, just one. He is Just a name. And here he is confirming litterally what i have just said. Watch this he will tell you directly whats up with him...

@@hetjamesfield4473 are you a moron? Where in either of those does he mention he wrote none of his own shit? Go learn how to comprehend a little better big man.
In my humble opinion, Bob and Michael did the absolute best jobs on the finished record. And seeing Michael absolutely smash it as usual and that bob needed some help just makes it all the better I love them both
Dylan has his own voice. He's not recognized as a singer par excellence, but right from the first time I heard this song, his solo lifted the whole thing higher than any of the others before him. Dylan and then Ray Charles: magic.
I was born in the 90’s but can instantly recognize bob dylan voice in this song besides MJ, cyndi lauper, & springsteen. Theyre just unique in their own ways
I'm admittedly a huge Bob fan, but even if I wasn't: if you think there's something weird going on in this video you're certainly not a musician. The beginning part is him trying to quietly work out what he's gonna do for his part. And once he's at the mic, he kills it every time. Stevie and the producers all thought so. But as is the case with many artists, he wasn't happy with his first couple takes. I'd never seen this before and someone recommended it as if it's something comical. And some of the comments seem to agree. If you start with the premise "Dylan can't sing" then you're gonna see and hear what you've already told yourselves you're going to. But you've obviously never seen any raw footage of a singer in the studio. This is just a musician doing what they do. It was a new song for him; he listened, worked out a part, and CRUSHED it. If you watch this and say he can't sing you're just revealing your own ignorance. What you don't like is his TONE. But "can't sing" means the person can't stay in key. And there's not a second he's off-key here, even when the friggin key changes! Taste is subjective, but if you say Dylan "can't sing," you're objectively wrong.
Lionel ran everyone out of the studio so he would feel more comfortable learning. That's a true producer. Stevie coached and Quincy coached. I mean, how awesome! Bob Dylan is a legend, and the have sense enough to know it.

Crooked eye? I never saw that at all. Are we watching the same video? Bob was very humble here.
quincy great LOL
Well, they needed to get home and get some food. It was obvious this cat wasn´t going to come trough by himself. Out of tune, out of rhythm and out of sense. Quincy was probably thinking about his recording session with Ringo. uffff
Bob looks out of place. They are trying make him feel at ease.
Stevie Wonder always reminds me of a seal the way he moves his head.
Hahahha me too
@@natureprofonde9945 Did you laugh also?
🤣
Racist
Hahaha so true.
Cada vez mais, apaixonada nessa música,eu amo ver cada detalhe,cada erro,cada acerto gente e tudo incrível
Bob era tímido? Cadê o Prince?
Its very endearing to watch Bob Dylan trying hard to get it right. ❤❤
Bob looks like an atheist who’s forced to sing in a church.
Lol lol 😝
jajajaja
Accept he is not an atheist he believes in the God of this world he said
Best comment ever 😂🤣
@@nathanblades3395 yeah but he said it just as a joke. Cause he does legit look like an atheist at a church choir practice haha
Engineer: "that's beautiful man."
Also engineer: "were going to erase this shit when he leaves today"
😂😂😂😭 Exactly! 😭😭
Quincy Jones, audio engineer
Lmfao
easleyrider hahahaaa
QJ has also produced the whole song. Some studio engineer! 😂
Bod Dylan ended up being one of my favorite song writer of time... A great storyteller. Listen to Knocking on heavens door, Shelter from the storm, How does it feel etc. A true Legend!
Is “How Does It Feel” “Like A Rolling Stone?”
Very cool to see these geniuses put ego aside and make something wonderful for the rest of us. Stevie is the man.
You can definitely tell this is out of his comfort zone and the fact that he was still willing to try and ask for help and everyone was being so kind to him is beautiful ❤️love this
True Artists❤
6:26 Stevie living and celebrating when Bob let himself lose a bit more with his singing is so honest and wholesome
mrpurple11 authentic. Loved it.
Beautiful
Obviuosly, he is fed up!
I love how Bob looks to him and points as for Stevie to react bahaha, so precious
He's so precious 🥺
Questa è vera amicizia fra due geni e talentuosi cantanti, quanta umilta da imitare, che buon❤❤❤❤❤❤ esempio
Olha a humildade do Bob Dylan em pedir ajuda para Steve Wonder.
He sounds like he’s recording the sound track to toy story
Pete11377 haha wtf
True
The OG Randy Newman
Q "That's perfect man."
B "If you say so."
Geezus, he's nervous as heck but still sings it perfect.
To all aspiring musicians and artists out there: just make sure you get started and keep going. See? Even the absolute masters still had their moments of flaw and doubt. Learn as much as you can on the way, stay open, but, never let any lack/inability stop you from reaching.
It made me so happy when he Bob was like "Hey stevie, can you play that for me" 😄
It's great to see Bob singing his heart out on a song that is not his own, in a genre that's clearly outside of his comfort zone. Kudos to him!
i like the struggle in his voice. he always does it right though
That's an awesome point,
You are so on point with that
Every song was out of his comfort zone at that point in his life.
That "genre" being singing.
In this beautiful song I'm just waiting for Bob's turn, there's something special about his input fantastic 👏
Seeing Steve smile is just beautiful
He doesn't really sing, he just talks melodically.
That's because he is a poet, not a singer.
@@fornostios8970 I agree.
No he definitely does not sing.
Dave C you okay ?
@@bobdylan8364 probably not.
Bob Dylan being Bob Dylan. We're lucky to see it in real time and I'll be honest, I appreciate seeing his insecurities among the world's top singers from that era. He's surrounded by encouraging artists, that's great to see.
They understand each other's style and know what it's like to be in that position.
If I sounded that bad, I'd be insecure too. Someone early on in life should have pulled him to the side & said "Bobby, maybe you should give up on singing & focus your attention on something more pleasing to the ears." May I suggest doily making. Song writing is a lost art I think you could excell in. But, please, under no circumstance should you ever come within 10 ft of a microphone. For the love of God, don't even look in the direction of a microphone.
i dont think hes insecure
@@yaksak2706 ............... bruh hes one of the best artists
@@yaksak2706 Nobel prize in literature, 51 successful albums, 200 sold out concerts a year, sold his song catalog for $350 million dollars.
They’re all wrong. You’re right.
Ejemplo de humildad....grandes cantantes juntos que ya no veremos mas
Meu Deus quantas mensagens lindas nesse dia! Somos todos iguais e se dedicando no que amamos conseguimos resultados impressionantes! Obrigada Deus por me proporcionar assistir esse documentário e viver a musica!
What really gets me is he has to read the lyrics every time he sings it. That's how little he was feeling it lmao.
@Jason Voorhees lmfao!
Yeah, he shouldn't have to struggle to remember the lyrics, considering how his own lyrics are among the most complicated out there (on a side note, I feel like my brain consists of 15% Dylan lyrics, I can recite plenty of them), but in the official video for this song many of the artists are looking at a sheet of paper, so it looks like they also struggled to remember the lyrics.
I think it's just a habit after a while. I did the same thing in choir, yet next period I was singing the whole song in my head.
@@Igor.Quintao Exactly
Clearly you never recorded a song while listening to it for the first time. Trust me, it's really hard to remember everything and sing at the same time...
"Do it one more time Stevie!" I love him so much he is so precious
He was the absolutely perfect person to be a part of this masterpiece.
I love stevie’s signature sway while he plays❤😂
bob dylan's voice suits his style, if you come accustomed to it you start to hear a beauty in his timbre. Him going out of his comfort zone for such a cause and absolutely killing it is amazing.
Same with Cindy Lauper but you still see a ton of ppl talking shit on her..
I’m sorry and I know that honest minds differ, but I think your affinity for Bob Dylan, understandable as it is, is biasing your judgment here. There’s just no respectful way to say it: he sounds horrible on this song and his voice is discernibly and noticeably of a lesser quality than literally every single other singer.
@@bredenis5 some people just prefer imperfect voices. I think he sounds awesome with his unique phrasing and adds just as much to the song as the others!
@@alexlackner1945 i’m really trying to appreciate your point of view and I’m not necessarily disagreeing but kind of thinking in my mind would somebody say the same thing about somebody who was playing an instrument poorly? I don’t know that there would be any type of affinity for or appreciation of somebody playing something off key and chalk it up to their nuanced style.
@@bredenis5good point but think of the punk movement or bands like pavement. They made a pretty good living out of playing their instruments rather poorly and even off-key! Or the way Josh Homme alters his scales to give QOTSA songs their unique vibe. Or Tom Waits' junkyard percussion... there are many examples in music where going against the grain can produce something very interesting and unique. Yes it may be an aquired taste and not for everyone - but there's nothing i find more bland and boring than casting shows looking for the "perfect" voice...
8:21
Bob: "You can erase that"
Quincy: "Say no more"
This is just beautiful one legend to another great legend Bob Dylan.. Still to this day this tears me.. to all the greatest legends we lost.. RIP.. we are definitely the world...
Amazing to see Quincy, Lionel and Steve coaching Bob to the finish line. Dylans voice is so unique and beatiful. He just needed a little help. What a Team!
He’s not a pop star never was.
This is weird for him.
He is popstar
Христодиарея Сатанович no he isn’t. He’s more than that clearly. How many other “pop stars” have won the Nobel prize for literature?
For longevity, productivity, potency, poignancy, proliferacy, record sales and still gigging
Bob Dylan has no equal ! He is peerless !
@@AVGN1 folk never was pop, it was popular, not exactly aimed to make everyone sing along
He is high as fuck
2:22 Listen to Stevie wonder just jamming to another song in the back. Iconic. Love him.
The encouragement is just fabulous. What a lovely bunch of people. Better times
Bob Dylan will always be an absolute Legend ❤
at 6:33 he turns to look at Stevie and points, without realising that he turns to speak to a blind guy while there's music playing, hand gesture hilarious...
Lol
Whahahaha
xd
Lol hes so nervous he just turned to the closest person for reassurance
@@RG-pi4xr nah, I think he chose Stevie, because, he likely was the one he knew best. They started out at the same time, whereas most of the others were a new generation.
His style is so different that he found it difficult to interject. Love his style.
@Donna King, yeah it's not his style here that's the issue, his voice is just shot to hell. And I was a teen loving Dylan and now a senior citizen loving the teen Dylan. Not sure quite what went wrong with his voice. Could be some health issue - ?? Love his style too though, man this was quite rough he could have sung it not sure why he was so confused. I found it hard to watch...there are other clips of singers not getting their parts right either though the focus on a legend will get you more clicks!!
@@carolyndiffenderfer6181 He never wrote a song, just one. He is Just a name. And here he is confirming litterally what i have just said. Watch this he will tell you directly whats up with him... He did nothing himself + no talent at all. Sry but those are facts. Dont trust me? Well, you will trust him then for sure . here... th-cam.com/video/m_wAZ02JUtM/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/YBnEllMmbLg/w-d-xo.html You know who owns the music industry, they made him.
@@hetjamesfield4473 are you a moron? Where in either of those does he mention he wrote none of his own shit? Go learn how to comprehend a little better big man.
Yeah
5:36 the best take by far
This looks like Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy doing an SNL skit. 🤣👍
In my humble opinion, Bob and Michael did the absolute best jobs on the finished record. And seeing Michael absolutely smash it as usual and that bob needed some help just makes it all the better
I love them both
Dylan has his own voice. He's not recognized as a singer par excellence, but right from the first time I heard this song, his solo lifted the whole thing higher than any of the others before him. Dylan and then Ray Charles: magic.
My favorite parts too. People dog Dylan but I've come to love the guy.
Stevie & Bruce was my favourite part
I was born in the 90’s but can instantly recognize bob dylan voice in this song besides MJ, cyndi lauper, & springsteen. Theyre just unique in their own ways
He sucked big time, I would never allowed him to participate in this high standard vocal performance work.
@@Capturing-Memorieswell let’s thank the lord you ain’t Quincy jones, bob dylan is a true legend, that is the sound Quincy was after
I love how his unique voice blended nicely with the song. Classic!
Must be damn good stuff you're blazin
I loved this when I first saw it. It made me feel like Bob really cares about how he sounds and works diligently to keep his voice beautiful 💕
I'm admittedly a huge Bob fan, but even if I wasn't: if you think there's something weird going on in this video you're certainly not a musician. The beginning part is him trying to quietly work out what he's gonna do for his part. And once he's at the mic, he kills it every time. Stevie and the producers all thought so. But as is the case with many artists, he wasn't happy with his first couple takes.
I'd never seen this before and someone recommended it as if it's something comical. And some of the comments seem to agree. If you start with the premise "Dylan can't sing" then you're gonna see and hear what you've already told yourselves you're going to. But you've obviously never seen any raw footage of a singer in the studio. This is just a musician doing what they do. It was a new song for him; he listened, worked out a part, and CRUSHED it. If you watch this and say he can't sing you're just revealing your own ignorance. What you don't like is his TONE. But "can't sing" means the person can't stay in key. And there's not a second he's off-key here, even when the friggin key changes! Taste is subjective, but if you say Dylan "can't sing," you're objectively wrong.
Lionel ran everyone out of the studio so he would feel more comfortable learning. That's a true producer. Stevie coached and Quincy coached. I mean, how awesome! Bob Dylan is a legend, and the have sense enough to know it.

Bruhhhhhhhhh!!!
Que coisa linda! Quanta personalidade na voz. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊🙌🏻
Being a teen in the 80s who was into 80s Dylan was the best
