Man this guy is really something else!!!! These new kids don't know about this I am like the coolest in my class Im 12 by the way. Hello TH-cam! YEAH!!!!
I am sure that I think about Blonde on Blonde at least once every day. Have been doing this for couple of decades. Such is the richness and depth of Dylan.
That intricate harmonized acoustic guitar picking...so sublime. The full Cutting Edge box set shows how hard it was for the musicians to get an entire live take.
@@mannacharya4088 I agree in terms of difficulty. As I mentioned, if you listen to the Cutting Edge box set, it's made pretty clear that they are guitars, (I believe Al Kooper has also confirmed this), and it takes these legendary session players quite a few rehearsals and takes to get it right.
When she said, Don't waste your words, they're just lies, I cried she was deaf Is that the most amazing opening lyric of a song ever? Happy Birthday, Mr Dylan.
Word for word, maybe the finest piece of songwriting by Bob Dylan ever. Many of us have had a challenging relationship in our lives, but who else could express it as eloquently. And he, he took us in, he never wasted time.
Don't care much for the lyrics in this song as they seem rather stupid and comical. It seems to have been written as a parody of a much better song called "Norwegian Wood".
@@8176morgan The Beatles were often downright weird with the way they released their singles. For example: Michelle, the only Beatles song to win the song of the year grammy, was only released as a single in some European countries and New Zealand 😊and as an EP in Francd. It was a number one hit in all of these countries. A cover version of Michelle by British band, The Overlanders was number one in the Uk, beating out a rival recording by Brits David & Jonathan. The whole story becomes even more absurd when you learn that the David & Jonathan cover was produced by George Martin. I wonder how many more number one songs The Beatles would have had, if had been more important to them.
Lyrics "I once had a girl Or should I say she once had me She showed me her room Isn't it good Norwegian wood? She asked me to stay And she told me to sit anywhere So I looked around And I noticed there wasn't a chair I sat on a rug biding my time Drinking her wine We talked until two and then she said "It's time for bed" She told me she worked In the morning and started to laugh I told her I didn't And crawled off to sleep in the bath And when I awoke I was alone This bird had flown So I lit a fire Isn't it good Norwegian wood?"
it was the song I loved most when I was very young, I still and well like it by the same passion. I'm happy to have existed, while Bob Dylan was the icon of the art of the century.
Not many artists that can shake you to the core.....Dylan just does it,decades past,but he can still knock you for six.... Lots of good memories come flooding back.....
Not one of Dylan’s most underrated songs, but it is his most unjustly underrated songs. It is, quite simply, one of his best. The mercury flows in rivers.
@Twilight 8368 It's a parody of Norwegian Wood. He wrote it to make fun of Lennon copying his style - which is pretty lame if you ask me, but either way it's a parody, not a copy
I've loved Blonde On Blonde for over 40 years and only just realised Fourth Time Around is a response to Norwegian Wood! Astoundingly obvious now! Both masterpieces.
The last line: "And I, I never took much, I never asked for your crutch Now don't ask for mine" seem like a direct finger wag at John. Or, at least, that was my interpretation of it. I wonder what he must have thought when he heard this song for the first time 😬
@@chrispereira420 I read where it made John pretty paranoid. Plus smoking reefer all the time doesn't help either, I have some experience there. Dylan was such a major influence on everybody, always will be. I'd be freaking out also. Great story though. Probably true.
My favorite thing is that harmonica.I love the way he uses it. Bob is the only one that can give me a great day.I'm a bit tired of all crap out there. Don't listen to the radio just tube Bob's music. I guarantee you will be able to listen to a song a day everyday of the year and still have plenty of music left for the next year. We are lucky to have him.
@@Onlydust way back to a great memory of my life. My older brother comes home alive with Bob's greatest hits that he just purchased along with the Doors and the Rolling stones. I was 13 and my favorite was Bob I played it everyday.
@@wendyeschbach7319 Hi Wendy thanks for sharing that with me much appreciated 😉 my personal favourite album is Modern Times. Ive been addicted to Dylan ever since I heard Walking Down The Line many many years ago.
Totally agree. As a young Dylan fan 45 years ago, i took the album cover to a tailor and asked him to make a replica jacket. It was a beauty, of thick quality suede and no one had anything like it.
I am 45 . I know only four of Dylan's albums. I keep thinking it'll take a lifetime or even two to really know his work. But this song is just p o e t r y. I could listen this tune on repeat for hours.
When I listen to this song, I start to cry. 😢 I think certain songs were already there and someone had to just reach and grab them. And he has grabbed so many 😊
Lush melodies. The first and only time for Dylan. A singularity. A world that didn't exist before this album. A world that never was created again...by anyone.
bezieht sich möglicherweise auf ein nicht ganz glücklich verlaufenes Gespräch zwischen Lennon u Dylan, indem es um die Kunst des songwritings ging, also die "crutch" wären Tricks beim songwritings . oder so ansonsten ist hier eine Verbeugung Dylans vor dem genialen norwwgianwood zu hören ... der Song, in dem er sich "erwiesenermaßen" über Lennon lustig macht, Mr Jones: "you Walk into a room Like a Camel and then you frown...... "
@@terryperring104 you're clearly not well informed. The beatles are my favorites of all times, dylan the second. Do you know that lennon wrote norwegian wood AFTER listening to this? Dylan played this for Lennon in 1965 and lennon then wrote norwegian wood. And they released rubber soul. Then dylan released this song on blonde on blonde in 1966. Actually the beatles ripped dylan.
Captures the complexity, confusion, uncertainty of a relationship breaking up and what's been learned in starting a new love relationship. True Master of cerebral story telling.
From Spain, nobody could explain the feelings that this song brings to me since more than almost 40 years ago...its unexplainable but wonderful. Wish you still a long life for you, Robert Zimmerman!!!
Yeah I love this one.It's a beautiful love song sarcastically magically told as only Dylan could compose leaving you puzzled,amused and grateful for such a jewel.
"The Beatles' relationship with Bob Dylan is still shrouded in mystery. They first met in 1964 and then spent time together in 1965 when Dylan toured the U.K. Dylan formed a close bond with George, playing together in the Traveling Wilburys, but it was John that Dylan may have taken inspiration from in "4th Time Around." Many interpreted the Blonde on Blonde song as a response to "Norwegian Wood," given the two tracks' musical and lyrical similarities. In 1968, John admitted the song made him "paranoid" when Dylan first played it for him in London. “He said, 'What do you think?' I said, 'I don’t like it.' I didn’t like it," John told Rolling Stone years later. “I just didn’t like what I felt I was feeling - I thought it was an out-and-out skit, you know, but it wasn’t. It was great. I mean he wasn’t playing any tricks on me. I was just going through the bit."
John's song was simple and banal. Dylan showed him how to do it better. (And let's not pretend John was anything other than a miserable prat most of the time anyway)
What a presents these days❣️My lovely Blonde on Blonde LP... Heard this in the 70’s last, lyrics engraved.. coming out on hearing this nów..from my then young eager mind👌 Now stereo! GREAT, astranged, POEM song..👌. I stood in the dirt where everyone walks.. You, you took me in..Everybody must give something back for something they get! Natures’ Law!... I never took much..never asked for your crutch now don’t ask for mine..❤️🌹🌞
Often, when we talk about an "artist" who has made his way, we say "... he is clever! He'd known how to hollow his voice, ...". I think we couldn't say the some about Dylan. This artist is certainly different. In addition of being a great artist, this gentleman is certainly clever too, but exceptionally serious. We can only deeply respect him.
This version sounds better than the original CD remastered releases. All this re-remasterd version is missing from the LP is the scratches...it sounds pretty good!
Saw him do this in Portsmouth along with Visions of Johanna!! Absolutely pristine vocals!!!! Saw him many times before this but he blew me away man!!!!! Blew me away totally typical Bob so unpredictable!!!!!!!
Between the beginning of 1964 and the end of 1970, the Beatles had twenty number one songs in the U.S. Dylan didn't have a number one song until 2015. Probably one of the reasons he was cranky about Norwegian Wood.
@@paulsmith7579 Where the hell did you get that from? ‘Norwegian Wood’ is my song completely. It was about an affair I was having with some chick. I was very careful and paranoid because I didn’t want my wife, Cyn, to know that there really was something going on outside of the household. I’d always had some kind of affairs going, so I was trying to be sophisticated in writing about an affair, but in such a smoke-screen way that you couldn’t tell. But I can’t remember any specific woman it had to do with. John Lennon
This song has been explained as an answer to John Lennon's song on Rubber Soul's "Norwegian Wood." It's as if Dylan was telling Lennon, "Nice try John...doing a Dylanesque type song. Here s how it's supposed to be done," (i.e 4th Time Around).
They’re equal for me tbh they both have these addictive melodies, the sitar on Norwegian wood is great and what I’m guessing in the mandolin sounds great on this track aswell
There was no outflanking, just admiration and a cheeky line. The Beatles were changing and Dylan noticed a bit of himself coming through. Of course he had no idea just how much they were changing, way beyond him.
People reading too much into this being an attack on Lennon. Reality is Dylan loved and admired The Beatles from their first songs, but Norwegian Wood was a big departure and Dylan could see he was influencing them, so he returned the favor by copying it back from them and adding that perfect last line. Of course, we know what The Beatles were turning into at that point. It was far beyond Dylan. They were going into uncharted territory. And so you never saw Dylan poke fun again, only be in awe, as they were of him.
Thanks Bob! 😅 You made me laugh as these have to be some of the funniest lyrics ever! We now all know who these lyrics were aimed at, and that you're pointing out and mocking their pretentious but faux-cool attempt at copying you in the first place! Great stuff! 😅👍

Poetry of the universal experience of a relationship, captured in a final line of verse. A master at the art of delivering a sense.

Between the beginning of 1964 and the end of 1970, the Beatles had twenty number one songs in the U.S. Dylan didn't have a number one song until 2015. Probably one of the reasons he was cranky about Norwegian Wood.
It's impossible to not laugh if you understand the meaning and context 🤣
How Dylan and his crew were not rofling is out of my understanding
❤after listening Blonde on Blonde for the 5 thousand time , I can't understand how we get to people listening regaton today???.😢😢😢
The first time I heard this song I knew it was Dylan's surreal answer to "Norwegian Wood." Similar melody with Dylan's humorously psychedelic lyrics.
Starting verses with “she” and “so”, just like Lennon. 6/8 feel, and a weird story about a chick and him hanging out.
😎 Yes ,,, it's Nicely similar ,,, but He can't touch John's Wood 🤓
Norwegian Wood is about a homosexual encounter, so your joke isn't quite as original as you think it is.
What's psychedelic about the lyrics of ths song? Its not exactly " newspaper taxis, or tangerine rees and marmalade skies."
@@paulsmith7579 Where the hell did you get that from?
‘Norwegian Wood’ is my song completely. It was about an affair I was having with some chick. I was very careful and paranoid because I didn’t want my wife, Cyn, to know that there really was something going on outside of the household. I’d always had some kind of affairs going, so I was trying to be sophisticated in writing about an affair, but in such a smoke-screen way that you couldn’t tell. But I can’t remember any specific woman it had to do with.
John Lennon
such a beautiful song and actually pretty funny if you know the history behind it
I can only imagine🎉🎉🎉Yes funny🎉
This song has been explained as an answer to John Lennon's song on Rubber Soul's "Norwegian Wood." It's as if Dylan was telling Lennon, "Nice try John...doing a Dylanesque type song. Here s how it's supposed to be done," (i.e 4th Time Around).
Everybody must give something back for something they get
Decent song but it's no Norwegian wood.
They’re equal for me tbh they both have these addictive melodies, the sitar on Norwegian wood is great and what I’m guessing in the mandolin sounds great on this track aswell
Chef d'oeuvre. ❤
Je l'écouterais bien pendant des heures. Cette chanson me fait rêver mélancoliquement !
He is amazing unique voice and must wrote a million songs wow
Dylan totally outflanked Lennon on this one. "I never asked for your crutch / Now don't ask for mine". Epic closer !
I disagree. The original version is superior.
@@LarzGustafssondon’t get cute
Norwegian Wood's a better song. The Beatles were always far more musical and melodic than Bob. More concise lyrically, too.
There was no outflanking, just admiration and a cheeky line. The Beatles were changing and Dylan noticed a bit of himself coming through. Of course he had no idea just how much they were changing, way beyond him.
People reading too much into this being an attack on Lennon. Reality is Dylan loved and admired The Beatles from their first songs, but Norwegian Wood was a big departure and Dylan could see he was influencing them, so he returned the favor by copying it back from them and adding that perfect last line. Of course, we know what The Beatles were turning into at that point. It was far beyond Dylan. They were going into uncharted territory. And so you never saw Dylan poke fun again, only be in awe, as they were of him.
Thanks Bob! 😅
You made me laugh as these
have to be some of the funniest lyrics ever!
We now all know who these lyrics were aimed at, and that you're pointing out and mocking their pretentious but faux-cool attempt at copying you in the first place!
Great stuff! 😅👍
the harmonica intro is so beautiful
The magnificent Charlie McCoy on cat gut guitar I believe. He's all over Dylan's 1st few electric albums.
One thing I really dislike is people saying oh you can rely on him. I never want him to be my cruch
I heard "your words aren't clear, you better spit out your plum", was floored by the lyric then got dissapointed when I realized he said gum
gum is better:)
@@WillieCry no
It’s gum not plum
