    Going through a breakup at 64 years old, and this song, written by a 21-year-old, 60 years ago, is at the top of my list.

      Messieurs, si la mélodie de ce morceau est effectivement de très bonne facture, le texte en revanche ne brille certainement pas par sa poésie, et est plutôt d'un faible niveau littéraire.
      Gentlemen, if the melody of this piece is indeed very good, the text on the other hand certainly does not shine with its poetry, and is rather of a low literary level.

      it should be easy at 64, to break with someone - just know that all important things you already have done, carier, kids, maybe grandkids, house, education - now it is all just fun and support. Don;t think about it, focus on your family

    As a kid, I used to think the "you just kinda wasted my precious time" line was kind of a throwaway line. As and adult, I understand it might be the soul of the whole song.

      "I wish there was something you would do or say / To try and make me change my mind and stay" Just one quick line, tripping prettily with iambs, throwaway almost, but there's a universe of swirling conflicted meaning and longing in it. He could fire these off like breakfast cooks make toast.

    I always cry when I listen to this song. My dad was a huge Bob Dylan fan, owned all his records, all the bootlegs, all the biographies. In my early childhood i just remember his annoying nasal voice and that god awful harmonica and telling my dad how bad the music was. I never understood how he could listen to that garbage. When I was 17 he was diagnosed with liver cancer, and in less than a year he passed away.
    I always associated Bob Dylan with my dad, and so wanting to remember his, i dug up the old CD's and started ripping them onto my itunes library. Now i was 18 and could actually understand the quality of dylans songwriting and I started exploring his entire discography. I now consider him one of my favourite top 10 artists of all time.
    Now most of his music as melancholic as this song, but the sadness combined with remembering my dad always listening to dylan telling me i would understand what a genius this man was when i grew up. I grew up, I understood what a musical genius Bob Dylan is, and all i wanna do is be able to talk to my dad and discuss his works whenever i listen to it, but my dad passed away before I had the chance to do that.
    Sorry if the formatting of this comment is shitty, i just really miss my dad right now and im just writing without thinking of the structure.

      Seems public opinion lifted the guy into the stratusphere. Maybe theres some logic from a great poet and even better flow or something. Great sound. Idk, maybe the band should get some reparations. Or maybe he was a one man Armyin creating these songs. Doubtful. It's a conscious poetry that got eaten up. The man don't make the times. I might not know enough about it but he later say I don't know how I did it in recent interviews. Interesting stuff. I forget who said it but it's a saying about the mindvbeing stretched by an idea and how it can never gain footing or some of this. Stretch the idea with your mind. The base of personal consciousness and the rest was coined long ago in writing. Socrates spoke of the ideological realm and that not in itself spawned levels of great thinkers. Talk about divided people now well this kinda stuff birthed layers of textures where mostly boosted readers few lucky deserving coleages didn't really expand on. How could you.

    I left home at 12 and couldn't make it, I walked out into the woods at 14 with my the cloths on and never looked back. Got a job washing dishes in a bar for $6.00 an hour, a pack of cigarettes lunch and all the drinks I could drink. I was homeless 14 years of my life and 3 times I had enough money to buy Miami, other times I ate a toothpaste sandwich and tore photo's of food out of pages and ate them. I became the drunk of my town and I lost everything I acquired and even myself. God never lost faith in me even when I didn't believe in myself. Been clean & sober almost 30 years. today I own a $300.00 home and the most important thing to me is I found myself again. If you try to lose yourself it's easy to do, that's why Bob Dylan could recreate himself all these years. because he lived it. God Bless you Bob 😇✡✝💝

    It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
    If'n you don't know by now
    And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
    It'll never do somehow
    When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
    Look out your window and I'll be gone
    You're the reason I'm a-traveling on
    But don't think twice, it's all right
    … And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
    That light I never knowed
    And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
    I'm on the dark side of the road
    But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
    To try and make me change my mind and stay
    But we never did too much talking anyway
    But don't think twice, it's all right
    … So it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
    Like you never done before
    And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
    I can't hear you anymore
    I'm a-thinking and a-wonderin' walking down the road
    I once loved a woman, a child, I'm told
    I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
    But don't think twice, it's all right
    … So long honey, babe
    Where I'm bound, I can't tell
    Goodbye's too good a word, babe
    So I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
    I ain't a-saying you treated me unkind
    You could've done better but I don't mind
    You just kinda wasted my precious time
    But don't think twice, it's all right

    This song means so much to me.
    I lost my father to cancer 2 years ago. We weren’t really close until the end, but eventually, I could understand everything he was trying to say even though he couldn’t talk anymore. We ended up bonding over music (talking heads, the strokes, Bob Dylan, etc) which was his true passion. When he still had his voice box and could sing people would compare his voice to Bob Dylan’s a fair amount. He loved to play the guitar too, but he eventually got arthritis and couldn’t play anymore. Eventually, we thought the cancer was gone (according to doctors) but it wasn't true. He decided to hide it from us. I think he thought he was protecting us, even though it caused more damage than good. I don't have any recordings of his voice so all I really have of him is Dylan since they sounded similar. This song represents breakups for most people, but for me it represents passing. A lot of the lyrics in this feel like he's talking directly to me, so I find myself coming back to this song a lot even though it breaks my heart a bit.

      Damnn. So true.
      I still remember having a joint on the terrace of a building near my uni campus in Sitaphalmandi, and then suddenly this song came on from the Senior's penthouse room (which was so clean, in a sepia tone and with incandescent lights. Akhilesh if you ever read this, your room had amazing vibes. I remember this specifically because before you moved in, it was Sishir's room and it had absolutely zero vibes) and there was a strong wind too that day. I was in love with my college sweetheart at that time and didn't quite grasp this was a breakup song. Just made me feel ominous or something.
      But whenever this song comes up now, I've mixed feelings of that day, the wind, the terrace, sepia-toned clean room of my Senior in college. Could a room give vibes? I think this song that windy evening made that room alive.

    This is best listening too whilst reading the comments on this thread. Some beautiful tributes to dads and family members that have passed in this thread whilst acknowledging one of the greatest songwriters and singers of his generation. If ya dont love this ya have a steel heart.

    I’ve listened to this incredible song many thousands of times. Every time I listen to this song is different - a new revelation, a new awareness, a new nuance, a new appreciation of the beauty of this incandescent creation. Such is the timeless power of art. It brings us closer together in our shared humanity. It brings out the best in us.

    When a 21 year old man writes a song like this and goes on becomes the most prolific writer of an entire generation, perhaps a whole century it kinda makes you wonder what forces were guiding our young people back in the 60s70s80s. Why does our generation stand rock firm and swear we were it. Aint never gonna be another time like we had. I can never forget Niel singing, " there we stood on the edge of a feather, expecting to fly".

    I personally discovered this song of Dylan’s when I was around 40 and literally when I needed it the most. I was on the failing and giving up on a woman I had grown to love deeply over the course of 20 years of on and off flings in between her two husbands with the first being a good friend at one time… she was bipolar and suffered severe anxiety coupled with extreme depression… but on her upswing of this she could make you feel like the only man on earth so it was easy to fall in love… being perfect, and beautiful, and a great mother was icing. She had this light switch though and when she turned it off she became so distant… different. It hurt so bad and this song was the only thing to make me move on past the heartbreak when I lost her as my potential partner for a third time followed by her passing from hitting the bottom of a very long downhill spiral of drugs, and pretty much the most life destroying choices she could make until the idea of regular life became a thing of fantasy. And I was there the last time trying to save her in my mind but really pretty much putting my life on the line as I started using the poison that killed her after she was gone … for obvious reasons… so yeah
    Thanks Bob Dylan. For experiencing this and having the love and skill to transpose it for all of us suckers for love! I was on the dark side of the road indeed.

    One of the most relatable songs that could ever exist, if you are passing through rough break-up times. Specially if you just advanced the stage of totally hate to the other, and move up to a period of a combination of nostalgia about what could have been ("But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
    , to try and make me change my mind and stay"), and an apathic-little negative feeling about that person ("You could have done better but I don't mind
    , you just kinda wasted my precious time").
    Love this song; love this artist.

    Im 46 years now, and still cant understand how this gentleman than in his twenties managed to write such beautiful breakup song while showing no hate for the woman it is written for. If you break up with someone, be like this poet. I dont know any better way but what this song tells you.

  • @TheOlliebeak

    When I first heard this back in the early 60's, I didn't know about Dylan, and I didn't know if he was 17 or 70. The voice was like no other. All I remember is the song knocked me off my feet. I was around 14 or 15 years old. The message is as powerful now as it ever was.

      Johnny Cash did great, only think that I dislike about his cover is how he says "I wish there was something I could do or say, to try and make you change your mind and stay" Instead of being the other way around but besides that it's pretty great

    I was 9 years old when Mr. Dylan released this song in 1963. I enjoyed the guitar picking in it and the rawness of the voice but I had no clue how valuable the words would become for me until at 18 I met the girl who would be the reason I found salvation in the lyric. Thank you for that, Bob.
