I think you are a brilliant reactor. I think you will love Dylan a you are a writer. Try Hurricane, Tangled Up in Blue, A Hard Rain is a Gonna Fall or Don’t Think Twice.
Thank you so much! Appreciate that.
Looking forward to discovering his music and learning a lot in the process 😃
I am so glad you are starting to dive into Bob Dylan's music. Don't ever be too concerned about whether you are covering the right songs. He's 83 now and still touring and releasing new albums. His catalog is immense and you really can't go wrong.
Looking forward to discover his music! Got a few more Bob Dylan reactions coming this week.
It's alright ma will blow your mind 😊
Thanks for the recommendation
2016 Bob Dylan was awarded The Nobel Prize for Literature. His canon of work would take you a life time to complete, amazing songs, albums, outtakes, bootlegs, live performances .. a mine field of work. He is unique a one off the likes of whom we will never see again
Bob Dylan is a legendary songwriter poet starting in the 60's. So many great songs such as "Blowin' In The Wind", "Don't Think Twice It's Alright", "The Times They Are A-Changin'", "Like A Rolling Stone", "Shelter From The Storm", "Lay Lady Lay" etc. In 1988 Bob Dylan joined the supergroup the "Travelling Wilburys" which included George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison & Tom Petty.
Thanks for sharing these. Definitely will explore these and hope to get to the super group as well. Never knew that.
UHHHHH OHHH, HERE WE GO!!! 👍😊
This is another level! A masterclass in writing. Going to have to attend this class a lot 😄
Perfect comment! Saeed's in for a fantastic ride!
While this is one of my Dylan faves, the mind boggles at how many (scores of them) that are arguably on this level or even greater. Glad you’ve begun your leap down the Dylan rabbit hole. You will more than likely find Bob’s catalogue the most astounding and satisfying of any you will encounter. And I must commend your consistently brilliant and entertaining reactions.
Looking forward to discover more of them! It is really exctiting. Like going on a quest 😄
Thanks so much for watching and the kind words.
At 75 I have never tired of him. You have so much to explore with Dylan and his stream of consciousness writing. I first stubbled over Dylan in 1963, I have been fortunate to have seen him perform twice.
For Dylan songs to get lost in along with Mr. Tambourine Man, I would try "Visions of Johanna", "Sad Eyed Lady of The Lowlands", "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)", "Masters of War", "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright", "Tangled Up In Blue", "Dignity", and for your cinematic ear, "Brownsville Girl". That is just for starters, I have been immersed in his music all my life, it seems a lifetime is what it demands.
Stream of consciousess writing, thats a great description. "Visions of Johanna" reaction coming later today.
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.
I love that list. Definitely my top picks too. For a bit of fun, I'd also add "Isis" and " Ballad of a Thin Man". But more importantly, "Desolation Row", the cherry on top of the Highway 61 album for me.
In the spring of 1963 Dylan was about to release his second album "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan". He was not well known and he was about to get a big break performing on "The Ed Sullivan Show". The biggest show of the day. He was going to perform " Talkin' John Birch Society Blues", bur CBS would not allow such a controversial song to be performed. So Dylan walked out and the record company removed the song and three others from the album. Only the first pressings had those songs on it and it is worth about $20,000 if can find one.
From his early days, "Blowin in the Wind" would have been another great place to start. He started out performing with just an acoustic guitar and harmonica. Before The Band became a group, they were his backup musicians during his transition phase. "Like a Rolling Stone" is a good representation of that period. For epic storytelling you should check out "Hurricane" which is based on a true story and helped publicize the plight of boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter and expose the injustice of the racist legal system in the southern US.
Thanks for sharing these!
I did see the film Hurricane with Denzel Washington a long time ago.
@@SaeedReacts. The song came out 24 years earlier and brought national awareness to the story. There may not have been a movie without the song. And Carter might have spent more time in prison as well.
I have been playing and singing this song for close to 60 years. I still sing it now and then for LTC patients at the hospital. The lyrics are super deep.
Thank you for singing to those whose only comfort is often music.🤗
The 2017 nobel prize winner in literature saguo ishiguro said dylan was a huge influence on him.
Mr. Tambourine Man could be Dylan’s muse. He is asking him for inspiration. Nice reaction. Dylan is tough to get on one listen. Best to have the lyrics in front of you. Even his “obscure” songs are impressive.
@@peterginger That's my take on the song too
As a writer, I think you'll find a lot to appreciate in Bob's body of work. A few personal favorites include Tangled up in Blue, Like a Rolling Stone, Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again, Hurricane, Subterranean Homesick Blues, Isis, Blind Willie McTell, Desolation Row, Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues, and that's just a start. He covers the waterfront, from outrage to wit.
Looking forward to explore more. Thanks for watching and the recommendations!
My friend, you are the GOAT of YT reactors. I fail to understand why your subscribers aren’t growing more quickly. I’m SURE that’ll happen eventually. I DO KNOW THIS: With the very first watch that you get from a new “potential “ subscriber, they will be hooked as the rest of us are, who already are. Dylan is indeed a very deep rabbit hole and I wish you the best of times enjoying this master singer/songwriter. Everyone who knows of Bob Dylan, knows he is the GOAT
I wholeheartedly agree with you on everything you said😊
Thank you, Tommy. That is very kind of you and it motivates me to keep going! Grateful for your support, my friend!
A true master.
P.S. Consider reacting to Arlo Guthrie’s song about the famous train, “The City Of New Orleans.” It’s a beautiful slice of American history.
Thanks for the recommendation! Will add it to my list.
He writes in the abstract but also in the concrete. Genius
Thrilled to see you reacting to one of my favorite musicians and such a legend of our time😍
❤❤❤
You gotta check out these Dylan songs: Tangled Up In Blue, Visions Of Johanna, Things Have Changed & Shelter From The Storm
Thanks for the recommendations!
Reflection upon this song is rewarding but your thoughts in twenty years might be very different from your thoughts today but it's all wonderful. Dylan is one of those writers who routinely accomplish miracles. This song will leave it's mark and continue to unfold your whole life long.
There is an avalanche of incredible writing and music spanning 60 years from Mr Dylan. His style, music, writing and voice have evolved from album to album. Listening to Dylan is like listening to a 100 different artists. Don’t ever give up as he will always surprise.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I got one more Bob Dylan reaction coming later today.
As good as it gets. You started with the best work of poetry by the master of the art. Great reaction!
Great song! Thanks for watching!
Quick do another one, LIKE A ROLLING STONE it was his first big hit. (which is an easy song to figure out what he is saying )
Thanks for the recommendation! I have a few others that are already recorded coming soon 😃
Dylan is a lifelong journey. I envy your ability to hear it all for the first time. Enjoy!
Looking forward to explore and learn! Thanks for watching.
People have already listed some of the obvious (must listen) songs. Here are some more obscure ones off the top of my head. It’s endless. Some abstract, poetic, straight forward, or just killer tunes. Jokerman, Every Grain of Sand, Dark Eyes, Angelina, Changing of the Guards, Gates of Eden, Idiot Wind (live ’76), Shelter From the Storm (live 76), It’s Alright, Ma, (I’m Only Bleeding), Abondoned Love (live ‘75 Bitter End), Foot of Pride, In the Garden (live 86), Ring Them Bells, When He Returns (Toronto ’80), I Believe In You (Toronto ’80), Isis (live ’75), Visions of Johanna.
Bob will.knock your socks off
And the diversity in his humongous catalog will astound you. Bob is the BOSS.
Hi Saeed! You're going to love this deep dive. The oeuvre is indeed deep. I know you'll get a ton of requests now, for Dylan songs. I hope one of them will be "Shelter From the Storm". The Byrds popularized "Mr. Tambourine Man" in 1965. That's another band that should be essential listening. 🙂It's impossible to overstate Dylan's impact on pop culture. I'm really happy that you're doing this. Have fun, my friend!
Hi! Looking forward to more!
Definitely want to check out The Byrds too!
@@SaeedReacts. "My Back Pages". (for the writer in you, and one of 13 Dylan covers)
"Chimes of Freedom"
"Right Miles High" (when LSD entered the picture)
"Wasn't Born To Follow"
"Turn! Turn! Turn!" Arguably their most popular song. It was written by Pete Seeger.
Ahh, Dylan.
This song always has taken me back to when I was 5 years old and road the Illinois Central/City Of New Orleans train with my family from Memphis to Centralia Illinois to visit our paternal grandparents and cousins. That grandfather, my father’s father, was the train’s conductor, and it was the only time I would meet him. The song was playing at the time, seemingly everywhere. Dylan didn’t just write and record songs- he painted landscapes that illustrated, in my case, my childhood, for a whole generation of us whose lives were steeped in music that is now considered to be that of a renaissance. Great reaction, love your channel. Thanks for taking me back again, over 60 years ago now.
Thats an amazing story! Thanks for sharing it. Memories to cherish!
The Goat!
I think of Mr. Tambourine Man as being a muse (which is normally considered to be female but given the title not here). Perhaps someone from his childhood associated with an event that helped send Bob on his way as a musical poet. Could have been an uncle or teacher. An homage.
My Back Pages!
OMG...that is a PERFECT song.
Stay curious ..
You should check out Handle With Care by the Travelling Wilburys. The members were Bob Dylan , George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison‼️
Wow! That's a supergroup! Hope i can get to that one as well at some point. Thanks for telling me!
He's describing a journey of sorts
James here the donation guy. The reason I suggested you do Dylan now is I’ve seen that there’s a biopic film coming in December with Timothee Chalamet as Dylan. Well they are both thin and with curly hair but Timothee is we easier on the eyes But there will be lots of discussion about Dylan so you listening to him now you’ll be able to weigh in. The hit version by The Byrds was the first folk rock number 1 in the USA in 1965. Picking Dylan’s version gives you all the verses where the Byrds only has a few. Great choice. Great analysis of how he balances the poetry and song lyrics to make it accessible. He was first musician to receive the Nobel and committee reminded the Greek poets words were sung - we just lost the music. The journey with Dylan is great especially when he became a Christian and recorded. Peace out
I saw Timothy Chalamet was playing, didnt know it was for this year. I will have to go see that film. I will be learning a lot about a great musician. Now is as good a time as any 😃. Thank you for that.
I got another Bob Dylan reaction coming a bit later. 😃.
Phil ochs is another great similar song writer
Or Rainy Day Women 😊
I'm so glad you're covering this song I was lucky enough to know who the real tambourine man is ...who happens to be playing on this album... And he's a very whimsical had a tambourine that was the size of a wagon wheel and played with Bob for many years his name was Bruce langhorne....
I've been a Dylan fan since 1963 when "Blowing in the Wind" and "Don't Think Twice (It's Alright)" were hits by other performers. The first Dylan LP I bought was "The Times They Are A'Changin". When "Bringing it All Back Home" was released, with "Mister Tambourine Man" it rocked my world. I listened to it obsessively, searing the songs into my still-forming brain. They have stayed with me all these years, along with many other songs by this legend.
His following album, "Highway 61 Revisited" was equally mind-altering. My favorite surrealistic imagery song from this masterpiece is "Desolation Row". Give it a shot. I guarantee that you won't be bored.
This song has been covered by many groups over the years. One thing is true, Dylan will never admit what he was thinking of when he wrote any song. During one period of time, he stopped smoking and his voice was so much better. Personally, I think his voice is his...and I don't mind it.
If you like writing you should check out Nick Cave. In a 2022 interview Dylan actually named him as a "like minded" artist to him, and Leonrd Cohen as well (both Dylan and Cohen being big influences on Nick Cave).
I know him by name, but not familiar with his music. Hope to explore some of it too!
@@SaeedReacts. definitely check it out. He's have a long and fruitful career since the 80s till now (he released a fantastic album last month), with different "epocques", as most of these longevous (and good) artists do. If you do it chronologically you will notice that difference, but also the permanence or the continuum. Being too long of a catalogue, if you want I recommend start with The Ship Song from '92, the official video is beautiful. Kind of religious - which is something very present on his work, on the same album he makes a version of Foi Na Cruz, a protestant hymn from Brazil, where he lived at that time - after the 'Berlin period'; he left Berlin when the commotion was happening with the fall of the Berlin wall (this things seem to tell us a lot about his biography and his 'vital journey'. Anyways, sorry for the long comment. Hope you enjoy it!
Great songwriter! Terrible singer! Listen to The Byrds rendition of this song. It’s so much better and was a huge 60’s hit!
Dylan was a great songwriter, but I never was impressed with his singing ability. A lot of groups did great covers of his work though. Mr Tambourine Man - The Byrds, Blowing in the Wind - Peter, Paul and Mary
@@karehelene if you think Bob can’t sing, listen to Girl from the North country, his duet with Johnny cash. Then, if you still say so, I will fight you! 😂✌️
*grin* you are assuming I think Johnny Cash can sing (sorry not a fan). You can be a great artist and a great songwriter and not be a great singer. Leonard Cohen for example. Taylor Swift (I love her music btw) is not the best singer, though vastly improved over time. Many songwriters make the transition from writing songs for others to actually singing their own works. They can end up doing very well, but it's because people liked their music to begin with, not because they have the best voices. But all that (this) is subjective.
The thing with Dylan is he’s like a good writer. You can listen to his work out of context but really to appreciate it you need to listen to it in the context of where he was in his career what was happening in the world when he wrote it. He isn’t an artist that is surface level. His early political protest stuff is as magical as his mid 60’s slide into literary inspired electric rock music. This song is during his transition to electric and of course heavily associated with his drug use but is according to Dylan just about a musician he worked with. If you want to listen to something that I think you will appreciate try one of two Dylan songs. His very early ‘a hard rains a gonna fall’ or the later but equally stunning ‘desolation row’. Both pieces of literary art.
Bob Dylan is Iconic from the early 60's and is still relevant Today, He also was a Member of the Travelling Wilburys, with 5 others, of which 4 have passed
Dylan has said that drugs have nothing to do with this song
Thanks for letting me know. There were only a few lines that may indicate that, but overall i didnt feel it was about that.
Again, Dylan is by far the least reliable source for Dylan trivia. It may have a grander theme, but considering the layers of Dylan's songwriting (not to mention the voluminous interpretations) it'd be naive to think that mind altering substances play *_NO_* part in the story.
A true statement - but Judy Collins will tell a different story about this one.
Or maybe a mind that won't ever quit.... tambourine man ciuld be asking for a lullaby from thinking to sleep. I LOVE THAT YOU THIAT YOU FEEL LIKE ME ABOUT LYRICS AND MEANINGS AND interpretations. Love your videos. That you and to the one who requested. Bob Dylan Rhymes and reasons can be so intricate
Yes! A mind that will never quit and keeps you up at night.
Thanks for sharing that!
It's about artistic inspiration. The speaker in the song is left with something of a vision, caught imperfectly in a dream or dreamlike state. Upon full consciousness, he has something of the vision, but isn't able to put it together into a form. He calls upon the tambourine man, an agent of the vision, to help guide him through so he can create something in time and with form.
Many years after this Dylan gave an interview where he stated that his early songs were filled with such a power of imagery, that he had no explanation of where his words capturing this imagery came from. He said they were just there. This phenomenon is what Dylan is trying to communicate in this song, at the time those image experiences were most powerful.
Thanks for sharing this interpretation!
Saeed the tactician
Im the Napoleon of reactions. Not because i am a great tactician, but because i am short 😅
It’s the greatest song ever written. Subscribed 🙏
Brilliant song! Thanks for subscribing!
They discuss this song in the movie "The Freedom Writers" with Hilary Swank.
That's a great movie! I need to rewatch it! Thanks for reminding me!
You really must try the Byrds Mr Tamborine Man and the Byrds Turn Turn Turn. Also for anti war Arlo Guthrie Alice’s Restaurant.
Thanks for the recommendations!
Twee Belgische artiesten weten zich sterk geïnspireerd door Dylan. Beiden van een andere generatie maar beiden bewonderenswaardig : de zanger van Portland en Daan. GrC❤
Daan ken ik, maar Portland ben ik niet bekend mee.
Really enjoyed this reaction, although a Dylan fan it took me years to truly appreciate this song. Liked and subscribed.
Thanks so much for watchign and subscribing. Definitely a song i will be revisiting often.
My favorite version by Bob - which was live : "Mr. Tambourine Man (Live at the Newport Folk Festival. 1964)"
Thanks for the recommendation! Definitely want to see and hear that live version.
I've always thought of it as a poem of the zone between weariness & the domain of dreams, admixed w/ mortality & its limits.
That is a great take! Thanks for sharing!
A different level is correct. And a great reaction.
Amazing song and the writing is incredible! Thank you so much for watching!
Firstly I don't get notified of all your reactions. Don't know why. But I browse everytime so I do find it😂
Then. Saeed you being you are enough. You never need a tactic.
( subscription are growing friend)
Enjoyed this tremendously. Know the song. Greetings from South
Notifications dont always seem to work. Grateful that you look for them! Thanks so much!
Greetings from Belgium.
The “ragged clown behind”, to me, is definitely him, following along. I fell for Dylan’s lyrics aged ten with “One more cup of coffee”, he painted such evocative pictures with his words that he just fired my imagination like crazy. I highly recommend that one, by the way.
Thanks for sharing your interpreation of that one. And for the recommendation!
This is Bob Dylan's original song. He wrote and composed it. A group called " The Byrds" covered it and made a hit on a.m. radio in the 60's. I grew up hearing that version. But I love Dylan and all of his songs. He is a fantastic singer/songwriter and poet. You can't gowrong with anything he does, although he does have 1 called "rainy day women #12 & 35" which is a little out there, and takes some getting used to, lol. I like it, but that's the "hippie" side of me coming out😅. Thank you for listening and reacting to the great Bob Dylan. Much love to you and your family ❤️🫂☺️
Great song! Definitely will listen to it a few more times on my own to really grasp it. Today i got another Bob Dylan reaction coming 😃. Thanks so much for watching! Much love to you and your family! ❤️
My god I loved Bob Dylan, his songs about the futility of war (such as Masters of War) hit hard, and we need them just as much today as we did back in the day. But there are many more great songs. He put out an album of songs he wrote when he looked into christianiy, I still have that, (Slow Train Coming, Gotta Serve Somebody). but It Ain't Me Babe. Don't Think Twice, The Times They Are A changing. Blowin In the Wind. so many great songs.
Looking forward to more of his music. Thank you for the recommendations!
Wow! to your reaction and analysis. I always enjoyed this song for its overall sound--the voice and the instruments (especially that harmonica); but I never could grasp the meaning. I agree that it is beautiful poetry. The lyrics are thought provoking and moving, but what is he really saying? Your insights really help explain the possibilities. I was an English major in college, and for me, the lyrics are the most important part of a song. It's frustrating to not have a clear understanding of this, but we've loved Don Mclean's American Pie all these years and the mystery of that continues to this day. Bob Dylan, along with Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp, will be in concert near us in a couple weeks. My husband will be going. Maybe he will gain some insights right from the source! Gail L.
Its a great song, with very intricate writing.
I always want to unpack lyrics as well. And i love songs and stories where one can pick up new things each time you listen to them or read them.
Wow! That will be a concert of legends! A night to remember 😄
One interpretation is that the Tambourine Man is Dylan's muse. He is waiting for him to come at night, possibly in his dreams, to deliver a song to him that he will write in the morning. I think Dylan is the ragged clown following his muse and waiting. I like your "close to magic" conclusion. Great writing. great singing, and great delivery as you say.
That is a great interpretation! Like that one a lot! Thanks for sharing!
Keep on doing what you are doing. You are learning and understanding. You are lucky to have the precious element of time and 60+ years of Dylan songs to listen to and guide you. I have a little bit more time showing on me, so I have had to watch and wait for more from Bob and others. That was awkwardly put. I was old enough to understand many of his early songs when they were new yet there wasn't a catalog of tunes, styles, and/or literary material to study. He was producing quality music that some of us took a bit longer to study and learn. I think (hope) he knows how many of us are grateful for his life's work. Like I said, keep on doing what you are doing, and Dylan is just the beginning of the tunes of the folk movement. Check out Gordon Lightfoot and Dan Fogelberg, Peter, Paul, and Mary, Pete Seeger, Buffalo Springfield, Dave Von Ronk,, Ian & Sylvia, John Denver, the Kingston Trio, and more. Many of us had to wait for a new release to help understand where we were and where we were going. You have the advantage that a lot of observation and analysis is already archived.
Thanks so much for the kind and encouraging words! Looking forward to explore more. I have also started my Gordon Lightfoot journey and also want to check out more of his music.
I think the movie you're talking may be 1995 "Dangerous Minds", in which the ex-Marine teacher played by Michelle Pfeiffer tries to engage a class of problem students to learn metaphor in poetry by telling them to read the lyrics of this song, and says Mr Tambourine Man is the codename of drugdealer. The drug interpretation is popular, but I think it makes more sense to see it as the creative muse of a songwriter, so there's a ragged clown behind with skipping reels of rhyme chasing his shadow.
Thanks for taking the time to share this! Classic film!
I really like that interpretation!
Yeah, rather than being about drugs as was a popular interpretation due to the times, it sounds like it's music ("Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me") that took Dylan to a higher level of consciousness beyond the mundane and despairing ways of the world.
That is what i felt too! You described it much more eloquently 😃. Thank you!
This is a great journey for you to take especially considering that you are a writer. You really can’t go wrong here. Some of my favorites are “forever young” (play that for my son regularly) “like a rolling stone” “positively 4th st” and “girl from north country” with Johnny Cash.i could go on but I see some other good suggestions in the comments.
Thanks for sharing your favorites. Definitely want to explore many more.
Today i have a reaction to It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) coming.
Great rabbit hole 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Interesting to dive into his history. In his early years he was doing folk songs like this one. But he went electric and the hate that he got was unbelievable. Everyone was calling him a traitor for picking up an electric guitar
Oh really? Interesting! Thanks for sharing that!
My personal interpretation of the song is that Mr Tambourine Man is Dylan's Muse, in the classical Greek sense of being a personification of a disembodied spirit that whispers in the ear of artists and poets and other creators, being the source of their original, creative imagination.
He gets home weary but isn't ready for bed yet and nothing very inspiring is going on elsewhere (the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming), so he calls upon his Muse to bring to his half-weary, half-wakeful mind some new ideas, images, patterns and themes he can use for song-writing.
If you listen to the whole thing with that idea in mind, it does fit quite well. He's taken to all sorts of places, some exquisitely beautiful, some dark and scary, plumbing the depths of his subconscious/ dreaming mind, with its buried fears, long forgotten memories of moments of pure freedom, snatches of melody and 'skipping reels of rhyme', all reeling out cinematically as he forgets about today until tomorrow, choosing to leave the everyday world behind for now as he willingly surrenders to and journeys in the footsteps of that archetypal inner magician/ shaman character - his Muse, the Pied-Piper-like figure of the Tambourine Man.
(For someone with a genuine gift of creative imagination, whether or not any 'exogenous substances' - love your phrase! - were involved in this journey is not of primary importance in this scenario. The inner journey is the same!)
That is a great interpretation! Thanks for taking the time to share this! I will listen to it again with this in mind. Makes so much sense!
We took this song in English literature class at 14 years of age. We had to be told it was about drugs, lol.
Dense material 😄
Good stuff! Gracias. 👍
Thanks for watching!
You'll be listening to Bob the rest of your life.
I imagine i will be
I'm thrilled that you started with this amazing songwriter and such a beautiful song.
This is going to be an incredible journey! (hope that you'll find time 😊 time is your enemy...)
Great reaction! Thank you for this one! (He is one of Asaf' inspirations...)
Looking forward to enjoy new music and learn a lot in the process!
Thanks so much for watching, Orly!
Volume wise, Bob Dylan was the Steven King of folk music, but quality wise he was far more important.
You are going to make it big mate. You are insightful, wise and have a great voice for this type of content. Thank you so much and keep it up!
Thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words!
@@SaeedReacts. Hey brotha! Think seriously about doing a reaction to "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts". A prime example of bardic storytelling alongside an amazing song. Just a suggestion :)
In my teens I found Bob Dylan's songs in my 20s I added Billy Joel and Don McLean These were artists of my life they had a part in my growth in life -of who I became. I'm close in age to these artists (about 5 to 10 younger). Blowing in the Wind is a great early one.
I get so tired of reactors saying "exogenous", y'know what I mean? Nevertheless, I guess I'll go drop something now.
I dont watch many so i dont have that same feeling 😄
Dylan's lyricism is so evocative and beautiful. I've heard a lot of suggestions as to this song's meaning from Bob imploring his muse for music to drugs. Another one that is interesting is that it represents a longing for youthfulness. When he sings, "I know that evenin’s empire has returned into sand, vanished from my hand..." this symbolizes his loss of youth. Anyway, in the end, the meaning is what you perceive it to be. To read more Google: mr-tambourine-man-poignantly-beautiful
Thanks for sharing this! It definitely felt more like that than it was about drugs.
