there you go ! Deep and Profound....yeh......i dunno !!! Man listen to his songs what else he has to say !!! I think he was totally within himself, hating and fidgeting to give interviews which he probably thought was an intrusion into his mind and he rather be somewhere else thinking and writing or singing another gem.
That was one of the stupidest questions I've ever seen in an interview. Incredible how many of those journalists were underprepared and new nothing about who they were going to interview.
Reminds me of Scottish footballer and Celtic manager at the time, Gordon Strachan, passing through an airport and a reporter says, 'Can I have a quick word Gordon?' Strachan replied, 'velocity'.
The question about what is really the truth in what ever context it was asked was not stupid, his response about tramps and throw up was stupid and sad.
I’m a Brit living here in the UK ( Hampshire near Portsmouth 🇬🇧🕊💐 ) do you know the BBC is absolutely bloody awful for mind numbingly idiotic questions & political bias.
@sm "Where did you get the idea for 'Sign on The Window"? It has such nice chord changes...harkens back to a rural , small town time, that seems to be disappearing, except in our collective imagination". I would talk to him as one songwriter to another....chord changes, lyrical ideas, how did he construct certain songs, what gave him the idea at the time, etc....i think he would like to talk more about his craft. He seems to brighten up when asked about that. He came out in the last few years and said that Mr Tambourine Man was inspired by his friend playing a big old tambourine at a jam session, for instance. I would have added, "That was a real nice idea...to start on the four chord in that song rather than the one...makes the song hang between the key of G and the key of D" I would also compliment him on his melodies...something he doesn't get enough credit for.....I would ask him about the songs "I don't Believe you" and "Who Killed Davey Moore"....two gems that aren't spoken about much......
I love how in the second clip, the interviewer almost feels like he’s from another world with the way he’s speaking, the way in which he’s asking it etc whereas Bob literally feels like one of us. It’s really interesting how that one clip shows the divide between generations
I love bob dylan cause he has a sense of humor but he also can serious and hes creative and thinks differently with his music and he doesn't see his music career as a career
He's an amazing man. I love his humbleness and his talent. My absolute favorite songwriter, period. Other songwriters praise him and you can't deny that he is very good at what he does and he stands up for the truth as he sees it. Thx for the video!
That was the first I saw of bdylan 4 years ago and I kept that sentence in my back pocket ... Cuz I had a feeling it was true . And , sure enough, it is !! @Jane #themusicalityofbobdylan
Happy birthday Bob you just turned 80 you're still kicking you're still singing long may you run. If you like it or not you are an icon an American icon God bless you
I'll never forget that young lady and the movie magazine ! I remember all these so far,,, not the laughing thing, Organic farming,... Thanks for sending these... Bye... Janey
Bob throwing shade for almost 60 years. Interviewers are all lazy asking the same four questions and Bob says come one come all I have shade for all. 😂😆🤣
I admire both Bob and the lady interviewing at 0:23, not to mention the whole room bursting into laughter as they suddenly realise the daftness of the whole thing.
She was lucky; Bob was in good spirits that day. That was in San Francisco in December 1965. You can find the entire press conference on TH-cam. The whole thing's a hoot.
@@avanti6058 I'm comparing this press conference with the ones depicted in "Dont Look Back," where Dylan was undeniably cruel to several journalists. Here he's having fun.
Dylan said people are always telling me my songs have these meanings and 100 years from now people will be talking about what my songs are about and I don’t even know what there about or where they came from. 😂
Too cool. 😎 i could watch dylan toy with reporters all day. Especially the mondane , vanila , dry pointless questions they asked him in the 60 s and 70 s.....not that they re much better today but i find the older ones to be the most amusing.
@@omrixeren it was the 60s, just because it was 60 years ago doesn’t mean they were idiots. People ask just as many dumb questions now as they did back then
Bobby… You ain't right teasing that little girl like that. Bobby has consistently scoffed at people with pens and paper that have tried to pigeon hole him. Great clips.
The patience to endure some of those inane questions. If this doesn’t help you understand why Dylan is so mercurial and enigmatic I don’t know what will
Dylan: They come to my house to talk about politics, philosophies and organic farming. Interviewer: What do you know about organic farming? Dylan: Nothing. Lmao
I didn’t know journalists were border line intellects . I actually thought they went to university ; imagine my surprise to , “ how many protest singers are there today “ ? Bob answers “about 136 “. “ Well is it exactly 136 “? Bob “ maybe 142 “. Journalist ...“ Are you at the apex of your career “ ? They sound like 3-4 year olds asking Batman questions . Dylan gives the three year olds their answers . “Do you consider yourself a legend “? If you have to ask ...
Sir Dylan,your answers save me. You are alright. And funny also. Love your responses overflowing with honesty and humor. Hope to see you in October Winstar venue. Stay safe and be good. A Top Fan of yours , thee toppesed!
These are the responses of Dylan to those who doesn't really wanna talk... they're just interviewing for the sake of it...for earning their salaries. With a person like Dylan, you really need to have an authentic and organic conversation. Dry small talks and typical press platitudinous questions just won't do.
Saw him in Kalamazoo and he walked on the stage, sang, and walked off. Never said a word. It seemed all very mechanical and like he didn't care. This was 20 years ago. I wonder what was up.
Bob Dylan used to come into my friend's dad's store every week when he was in town. That was Papa Bach's Paperbacks in Santa Monica (which I believe no longer exists). When he did, they closed the store for everyone but him, so he could buy the Wall Street Journal. Quite the people's musician, was Bob. And a real nitty-gritty streetwise musician. You could tell by the way he insisted the store be closed for him alone so he could read about his stocks in the Wall Street Journal. Somehow, my golden idol was tarnished after that.
So in he goes, don’t buy anything, they just close the store, so he can check his stocks in the paper... Something about this does not really seem to hang right you know? If he wants to avoid people, maybe it’s easier to have the paper delivered? But he maybe did not think of that...
Dylan was spot on. Despite his notoriety as history and time progressed Billy the Kid was labeled a "legend" and/or a "folk hero". But such labels were given to him by others and not the kid himself. The same applies to Dylan in his line of work. he doesn't place labels on himself . Some of these things are so obvious one has to wonder why anyone would ask such questions to begin with.
Did he have to be so 🥰 cute?? So talented and have an amazing voice?? I remember been 15 and seen other girls back in my country absolutely going nuts over him… Oh now I get it!!!
Anybody else think Michael Jackson should've asked Bob Dylan alongside him on interviews to keep the press in line? I'd love to see Martin Bashir or Oprah try to pull that crap on Dylan!
That brief period in the early 80's. It might have been around "Infidels" or the one after. He gave a really wonderful interview with Martha Quinn from MTV it's on TH-cam with the eyeliner and a zebra print blouse. Bob!!
I'm reminded of something I heard on "Ted & Lex", on Double Jay (Anyone remember the great Ted & Lex show? - Ted Robinson & Lex Marinos, I guess late 70s or very early 80's) - never seen or heard the interview, but according to T&L, someone asked him something like "What would you be if you weren't a 'folk singer' ?" & he answered "A ditch-digger named Joe... or a butcher..." They responded "Can you expand on that?" & Bob answered "Yeah, big chunks of meat..."
ha - forgot about that one. in the late 70's, a series of "_____ in their own words" pop culture books were published in the uk, and the one on bob dylan - largely compiled by barry miles - captured the ditch-digger reference, & many other funny allusions ("vegetables & death"") as well. worth seeking out.
BOB DIDN"T CARE ABOUT ALL THE BULLSHIT and HE STILL DOESN"T TODAY! HE IS STILL THE KING OF AMERICAN MUSIC, YOU HAVE TO LOVE HIM< OR NOT> HE DOESNT SING FOR TO PLEASE YOU< HE SINGS WITH A MESSAGE< FROM HIS HEART............I LISTENED TO HIM IN THE 60's and the 70's and right up to today and he is still the KING OF THE AMERICAN POET ! WE LOVE YOU BOB, JUST KEEP BEING BOB!
New Video 'Bob Dylan Top 10 Moments from Interviews - Part 2' th-cam.com/video/4VY6URG1aDY/w-d-xo.html

Dylan: " yeh.. i duunno."

is capatain jack sparrow inspired by dylan
@@alihaider5190 I think Forrest Gump was inspired by Dylan
@@tzuccolo2001 lol
Bob Dylan is basically a living celebration of what it means to be an individual
Better words cannot be said
Reminds me of Zappa
True words
@Bob Dylan joined 1 day ago….
Perfect said
The first girl interviewer was the best.
"Its supposed to"...is it?
She was funny !
adorable moment
Sweet
Yeah that was absolutely adorable
Every interaction with Bob Dylan just seems like it came out of a movie
He comes right out of tarentino
And now they’re making one
Instead of a video?
When Dylan doesn't want to answer a question... He won't
He's a legend in everyones mind except his own
He´s not. Speak for yourself.
Wayne Schlegel Indeed, speak for yourself!
@@VV-lq4di I do, you dork. I am one of those "everyones", and Dylan´s no legend in my mind.
Wayne Schlegel Name calling now?
What question?Was there one question that made any sense?He managed to stay cool and not laugh at their stupidity out loud.
The guy at 0:38 tried so hard and gave so much effort to his question as to avoid sarcasm, and Dylan hit him with 136 😂
Or 142
He deserved it for using needlessly complex language to appear smart. Bob took him down a peg lol
When he was younger his hair kinda looked punk rock to me lol
That was one of the stupidest questions I've ever seen in an interview.
Incredible how many of those journalists were underprepared and new nothing about who they were going to interview.
@@leahflower9924 well, he IS a punk rocker.
There's much better stuff
Bob interupted walking to a limo
"Can we have a word Bob?"
"A word?" "Astronaut"
Got a link? I would love to see that
He didnt say that, dont invent stuff idiot
Diego
Hilarious !!
Reminds me of Scottish footballer and Celtic manager at the time, Gordon Strachan, passing through an airport and a reporter says, 'Can I have a quick word Gordon?' Strachan replied, 'velocity'.
@@diegocerratoo It's in the Scosese DVD NO DIRECTION HOME
The first interviewer was adorable. I wanna hug her
The best question of all, and she got a laugh out of him. She was in HS too
No wonder he hated/hates the press, their questions were mind numbingly idiotic.
A. Vasquez I usually don’t like to offend people ; I think Bob’s sarcasm is an understated way to avoid the direct idiot noun .🤨🤨
still are.
The question about what is really the truth in what ever context it was asked was not stupid, his response about tramps and throw up was stupid and sad.
Why did he do interviews i wonder? It was his decision.
I’m a Brit living here in the UK ( Hampshire near Portsmouth 🇬🇧🕊💐 ) do you know the BBC is absolutely bloody awful for mind numbingly idiotic questions & political bias.
Exactly one hundred thirty six and one hundred forty two.
That was the best answer anyone could ever think!
Ask a stupid question.....
Or
Well, the question was “how many...”. So the answer was perfect.
around
what makes u laugh? Bob: something funny
Well, u got me there
Well done everyone. You've just wasted a chance to talk to Bob Dylan.
That was exactly my thought.
@sm "Where did you get the idea for 'Sign on The Window"? It has such nice chord changes...harkens back to a rural , small town time, that seems to be disappearing, except in our collective imagination".

@@joemarshall4226 Or you would have choked and just been as phony or nervous as anyone who was in the video. Get over yourself.
no way, he has a weird response to any question. They did talk to him
I think this is a case of no harm no foul. They would have gotten better information from a crazy homeless person.
Bob Dylan is beautiful
Always has been
Especially in eyeliner 😛
Interviewer: What makes you laugh?
Bob: Somethin' funny
I takes a lot to laugh. But it takes a train to cry.
I love how in the second clip, the interviewer almost feels like he’s from another world with the way he’s speaking, the way in which he’s asking it etc whereas Bob literally feels like one of us. It’s really interesting how that one clip shows the divide between generations
I love bob dylan cause he has a sense of humor but he also can serious and hes creative and thinks differently with his music and he doesn't see his music career as a career
moonlight queen if there was a laughing emoji just imagine it here. Instead of those words.
He's an amazing man. I love his humbleness and his talent. My absolute favorite songwriter, period. Other songwriters praise him and you can't deny that he is very good at what he does and he stands up for the truth as he sees it. Thx for the video!
Humble? Uuuh, that would be his public persona.
"Have you lost your enthusiasm?" "For what, doing interviews?"
"Im a song and dance man." Always made me laugh. I guess they couldn't find tape on that one.
Andy Kaufman said that about himself.
Roberto Sanchez goes k further than those guys .
Its out there, I saw it last night lol
That was the first I saw of bdylan 4 years ago and I kept that sentence in my back pocket ... Cuz I had a feeling it was true . And , sure enough, it is !! @Jane #themusicalityofbobdylan
He got that from me even though I wasn’t born yet.
Brb falling in love with this man
Happy birthday Bob you just turned 80 you're still kicking you're still singing long may you run. If you like it or not you are an icon an American icon God bless you
I'm sure he would be more comfortable with Universal Icon!
i still prefer Donovan though,
@James Fisher, Donovan?! Pffft, get oughta here!
I'll never forget that young lady and the movie magazine ! I remember all these so far,,, not the laughing thing, Organic farming,... Thanks for sending these... Bye... Janey
Your awesome Bob, and thank you for sharing your life time of music creativity
Bob throwing shade for almost 60 years. Interviewers are all lazy asking the same four questions and Bob says come one come all I have shade for all. 😂😆🤣

More of Bob he is a genius!
-he"s not.
reijo salminen he is.
reijo salminen, he is.
reijo salminen he is

Going to see the great legend live at the end of this month
i saw him tonight in Adelaide Australia! was amazing!
Bris Vegas very upset I missed him, but it was an over18 show wasn’t it?
How was it?lmao
Gotta love him! What a genuine human being he is. So refreshing and funny. 136 or 142; that’s classic Dylan! ❤😅😂

Brilliant BOB very cleaver answers
Dylan said people are always telling me my songs have these meanings and 100 years from now people will be talking about what my songs are about and I don’t even know what there about or where they came from. 😂
People tend to over analyse.
People will just be saying it sounds better on vinyl 🙄
Love Bob's impenetrable modesty. I know where he gets it. It's available to us all.. if I may be so bold.
aw his speaking voice is so cute...
I adore this man
They deserve it all long live Bob you mad bastard , how many singers are like you 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I feel like Adam Sandler could play a middle aged Dylan in a movie.
No.
Yup
@@lewstone5430 Bob Dylan is no where near as ugly as Sandler. Sandler is hideous.
@@legbakukulan4845 LMFAO WHAT
Now I wanna see a happy madison satire
Let’s ask Bob Dylan a ridiculous question that everyone else apart from the interviewer, knows he’s not going to answer 😂
Dylan in hindsight was all wrong. There were 133 protest singers.
Exactly 133??
@@MrYomomoto exactly 133 or 289
This just made my day! Thank you very much!

Love that last little clip...good job editor 🥰
I love the ending! Can’t help but laugh at how blunt he is, he really doesn’t give a f- about the media.
This guy sounds like he knows something and hides it with sarcasm
I swear if I was famous I would not not know a damn thing these people are asking

Interviewer: What do you know about organic farming?
Dylan: Nothing.
Lmao
Die Annahme einer subtilen "message" war wirklich gut!
Dylan is a living legend bless him always 🏴 👍😄
Simply the best!
He has probably realized something about questions/interviews. After so many, surely he can read the room.
Title should be “The most inane questions ever asked of Bob Dylan”.

When the interviewee is smarter than the interviewer.

Wheres that second interview from ? Always loved that

4:08 Kanye West considers himself a Legend?! Though to me its Bob Dylan he is so phenomenally unique and talented..
Bob is great!
2:51 Wait is that Bob Dylan with eyeliner?!??!!!
That brief period in the early 80's. It might have been around "Infidels" or the one after. He gave a really wonderful interview with Martha Quinn from MTV it's on TH-cam with the eyeliner and a zebra print blouse. Bob!!
dark times they were...
Sure is😎
She refers to "Eve of Destruction"...lol...that was Barry McGuire
I'm reminded of something I heard on "Ted & Lex", on Double Jay (Anyone remember the great Ted & Lex show? - Ted Robinson & Lex Marinos, I guess late 70s or very early 80's) - never seen or heard the interview, but according to T&L, someone asked him something like "What would you be if you weren't a 'folk singer' ?" & he answered "A ditch-digger named Joe... or a butcher..." They responded "Can you expand on that?" & Bob answered "Yeah, big chunks of meat..."
ha - forgot about that one. in the late 70's, a series of "_____ in their own words" pop culture books were published in the uk, and the one on bob dylan - largely compiled by barry miles - captured the ditch-digger reference, & many other funny allusions ("vegetables & death"") as well. worth seeking out.

Always loved his Sarcasm
He’s doesn’t try to embarrass people, he just questions their questions and if they come off dumb, so be it
He really did get asked some inane questions, can see why he really couldn’t be bothered with playing along with it
0:03 "desa what?" Hahaha
A ‘what’ hero ?
The Australian accent is funny sometimes
Dylan is the G.O.A.T
Yeah Eve of Destruction is none too subtle.
Robert Zimmerman, qoute, " today is tommorow, too."
I am so happy that his birthday is the same as mine!

Exactly. Thats why he didn't respect them.
Yes Bob, the fewer words the better in Bobs world. Funny ol place innit man?
