Greetings to my fans and followers with gratitude for all your support and loyalty across the years. This is an unreleased song we recorded a while back that you might find interesting. Stay safe, stay observant and may God be with you. - Bob Dylan
My husband was murdered in 1972. Shot with a high powered rifle while sitting in a restaurant. Slain by a total stranger. 28 years old. My daughter and I have lived 51 years with the mental torture of that nightmare. I think of him every time I listen to this masterful song. It inspired me to dig down deep in that dark hole and write. My ramblings go on and on. notebooks filled with words of pain and anger, lost time, dead dreams. If only I had Bob's gift to create a masterpiece to so magnificently honor his time on earth.
I’m so deeply sorry about your precious husband. I pray Jesus holds your heart mind and soul and y’all’s daughter also, In Jesus Christ Mighty Name Amen 🙏🏼🍃🌸✝️🌿🕊️
The Kennedy grandchildren singing "Timber" yesterday must have heard this. This 70 year old woman is in tears. Thank you. My dad would have loved this and everything that is coming to light.
Genius? No offense, but please... let's not get too carried away here. This is some of the worst prose Bob has ever written. It's really a form of psycho-babble. If he were a "nobody" this pablum would go "nowhere". Just sayin'...
@@grahamtugwell5266 Exactly, Dylan is keeping the disinfo alive with this song. But he could be giving us clues to such, as well, that the whole thing was just a diversion.
DYLAN'S WORDS ARE NOT MERE LYRICS...! LISTEN AND LEARN...ONE HINT: THE WOLF-MAN AKA TIMBERWOLF AKA GEORGE H. BUSH....NOT JUST A SAD SONG, BUT A STORY, A TRUE STORY!
You're the 2nd person I've seen butcher this quote...so far. It goes... "In times of UNIVERSAL deceit, the SIMPLE ACT of telling the truth BECOMES a revolutionary act.". DON'T DUCKSPEAK ORWELL WHEN QUOTING 1984.
Fiona Apple was blessed when Bob Dylan asked her to play on piano for these 17 minutes. She was afraid of it, but Dylan calmed her “You’re not here to be perfect, you’re here to be you.”
My wish is to meet Mr bob Dylan and this is why. .. In a world of melodies and rhymes, Bob Dylan’s music transcends time. His lyrics deep, his voice unique, A legend in the music mystique. To meet this icon, oh what a dream, To hear his stories, to see him gleam. His influence vast, his impact profound, In his presence, inspiration is found. So let us sit, let us converse, With the man who made history traverse. To learn from him, to share a thought, In the presence of greatness, we’ll be caught.
I met Bob. He isn’t friendly. He doesn’t chat. When the concert started he nary said a word. He just sang. See what I did there? He “just” sang. That’s “all” he did. And he doesn’t chat with us. Why? Because he has given all his words to us through the years IN HIS SONGS. what else is there for him to say? He has told us everything: he loves us; he cares about the world we live in. He wants us to always strive to do and BE better! He has poured out his heart through the decades. And we want him to CHAT with us? The man doesn’t chat! He sings volumes!!!
EXACTLY!!!!! And I totally get it. I hate small talk. Most people have nothing to say - just entertainment, fluff, or ego. No useful reason to open their mouths, other than to draw attention to themselves or gossip. Gee, I sound like a curmudgeon! I'm not, though. I love humans! I just have little use for blather.@@robinholbrook6576
I remember too much about those days. How does a bullet go through 2 people and a car seat-back and look pristine... while it's twin hits JFK in the head and explodes into a vapor? The Secret Service follow car had a rifle manned by a rookie. The bullets from that firearm explode into a cloud of shrapnel. That's why the x-rays were doctored.
I just figured it out. The ship's "Mercey" & "Comfort" are for all the trafficked children they are saving. God bless President Donald J. Trump and our beloved Patriots.
There are miracles in this world. Bob Dylan the enigma springing a "new" old song out of the blue is amazing. A lot of us needed this song in this tough time. Captivating, strange, sad, beautiful, and moving.
Only one man can write 17minutes of couplets accompanied by a rambling tune and have me absolutely transfixed. Despite its tragic theme it’s totally hypnotic. Bobs voice just touches your heart and breaks it in two.
Same for me too, this is a masterpiece I play it over and over, the truths are heartbreaking, I was only a small child when this happened Yet it affected me greatly, still does. Wow what a beautiful track.
*I remember watching my father cry his heart out that day. I can still see it like it was happening that day. I was 7. I will never forget. Now, I am doing my best to shine the Light on this Darkness. The Great Awakening. God Bless you, Bob Dylan!*
Oh I'm so sad for the seven year old you seeing your Dad sobbing his eyes out.I have the same memory when I was four and my dad was sobbing his eyes out at kitchen table.My baby sister had died.Dianna Selena.She was only five and half months old.🎉🎉🎉🎉 Bless all Dads everywhere .Mums and Dads.
Saw Dylan in 74' w/ the Band at the Spectrum. First concert since his motorcycle accident. I was so overwhelmed I wept. And almost 50 years later, I still weep. As only he could write this poetry and to be touched so deeply by his words. I remember the day, Sister Harold knocked on our 2nd grade door and told us "the President has been shot go home." It was solemn, even then, we were all Irish Catholic kids named after Kennedys. The joy had left our life.and we did lose our soul as a nation, never to be found. Thank you Mr Dylan. Your music changed my life. Thank you for writing this for your fans. Not a word or reference was lost on us. I listen to it often, always makes me cry. No other man on earth could have captured it how you did. God bless.
"Play it's for the dog that got no master" got to me. First because it's beautiful sad and touching and second because Bob still uses that old school language which could be taken as Politically Incorrect today. Hell, I even heard people say you shouldn't use the term 'owner' of your 'pet'. They are your 'animal companion'.😩
This is, quite simply, one of the greatest songs ever written. It's an honor to share the earth with Bob Dylan. May he live to be a thousand years old.
his songs will be immortal on earth, his legacy keeping his presence felt . Not just the ones we've already heard. i dig what you're saying. the longer it goes on, the more i know it's a privilege to get all these songs as they come, in real time. And i'm grateful i lived long enough to hear this song when it came. I've needed it all my life, finally someone brought the words for what has happened, the story of what it's like. The story of what i didn't have words for and needed to have them.
For the uninitiated, remember that Bob Dylan is, among many other things, a poet. I have to agree with Creative Tradition, we are fortunate to be alive while Bob is still writing. Thanks for penning words that many of us still think.
Paul W , I had my daughter research both Dylan’s poetry. Needless to say she’s a fan and cried when she heard this. She’s 13 and said she’s honored that he released a Masterpiece in her generation.
I was 16 when i bought my first Bob Dylan album,The Times they Are a-chaingin'. I played it all day long, my mother (RIP) wanted me to close the door and said, all day long, "this is not music". I am 76 now, Dylan's music has been part of all my life.Bob Dylan, and Thelonious Monk
I listened to this song countless times this year, it really carried me on through my troubles, through my sunshine and my darkest hours. I listened to this tune with a true smile on my face and I listened to it with rolling tears. After one year I came to the conclusion that to me this is unrepeatable, I feel this is one of the highest points a man will ever reach in art. I’m glad to be a 21st century bloke with the possibility to live this. And to all the people who will read this, just remember sometimes to “put your head out the window and let the good times roll”.
Don’t worry, Mr. President. Help’s on the way Your brothers are coming; there’ll be hell to pay Brothers? What brothers? What’s this about hell? Tell them, “We’re waiting. Keep coming.” We’ll get them as well ruclips.net/video/2I10P5tMLlI/видео.html WWG1WGA
"There is a plot to enslave every man, woman, and child on this planet. Before I leave this high and noble office, I intend to expose it." John F. Kennedy ------- "You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming." Pablo Neruda ------- "We are all that kid standing by the side of the road. We have all grown up in the shadow of these events! The globalistas have been relentlessly working to drive us down the cattle chute of history toward their new world order... We cannot allow those who have come of age and moved to the front of the fight, to then be hammered down - whether Democrat, Republican, Independent, or whatever. This is not just about one person or family; we have never wanted, and don't need, an American version of royalty to rule over us. From an American viewpoint, we are all royalty; every person a sovereign in his or her own home. In this way, our enemies cannot defeat us by taking out any one individual..." Juan O.

I was 13 on 11/22/63, it was 20 days after my birthday. My mother died 12 hours before the president, and every time I hear this it takes me back to that surreal day and weekend. So I can't listen to this song too often myself. Pity, because it's a wonderful song.
I remember this day perfectly. He was going to take the Deep State down and go after the Central Banks. Sound familar? Our country came out of an innocence period & for me our government started showing its very ugly face. They are out to destroy our constitution. They want to be God's but it won't work.Our Gov't wants socialism..I say DENIED! God rules the treason teams of all nations have to face treason charges. Amen.
A country singer once said the following " this world is full of singers but only a few are chosen to tear our hearts out when they sing" Bob Dylan is undoubtedly among those few chosen to make us dream, to make us weep. This song is an extraordinary rendition of what happened in Dallas on November 23 of 1963. I know that when Mr. dies, it will be a very sad day.
@BlueRedAndYellow What other option is there? The fact the mainstream media Has written numerous articles full of false information to discredit Q. why for 2 and 1/2 years haven't they simply asked the President. “ mr. president are you associated with this Q “conspiracy””? so simple but they don't do it - it's self-evident who's lying and who's telling the truth
Man you are the greatest lyricist of all time. I have followed you since i was 17 and i am now 75. Love all your work. happy birthday and stay safe. May your God hold you in the palm of His hand
"May your God hold you in the palm of His hand". His God, Your God, My God is the Same One and Only God, the creator of the whole universe. God connect us in different manifestations and names-Jehovah, Allah, Yahweh, Buddha, KRSNA are sacred names of GOD. Just call upon any of these names in your prayers to connect our souls with the Supreme Creator. Religious conflicts and wars occured between men and countries because this fact is not being understood. May we always walk the godly noble paths life after life.
I was in elementary school when this horror occurred. Decades later and after studying dozens of well researched books on the assassination, I still ponder this world changing event. Bob Dylan has been my friend through his music since the 60s. He still has the magic. This song is an instant classic and brings the “Murder Most Foul” back as if it was once again Nov. 22, 1963. Thank you Mr. Bob Dylan.
I was eleven Jim and I saw him as the only way the Cold War would end the threat of a global nuclear war, then they blew him away. The moment my faith in 'the system' ended. I'm 68 now and this song kinda explains my exact feelings, I still bring it up to this day. Hats off to Bob once again, a true masterpiece
I was 5 and my father took me and my brother to see him in San Antonio the day before. The president winked at me and nudged Jackie and pointed at us. My little brother was John John's age and I was Caroline's age, we looked like his own kids, the next day he was shot. I have never forgot that day and never will.
I am 65 years old and remembering this atrocity still hurts. Thank you for keeping the truth alive. Thank you for sharing your heart and mind with us. The multitude joy and peace of mind that your work has brought and continues to bring to so many cannot be put into words that do it justice. I don't have the ability to do that. But you are loved and appreciated. You stay safe too.Take care of yourself. Peace.
@@samwgdavis im 20 and canadian but his death has always saddened me, i did countless projects and essays on it and it always was so hard going over the aftermath. I cant imagine what it was like seeing it happen live, from all my research ive truly come to believe John F Kennedy was a great man
My mom was 21 years old. I was in her wound, to be born 3 months later. She still cries. Whether people realize it or not, our democracy almost died that day; correction, maybe it did die. What do you think? It’s very troubling.
I needed this right now, this window into time. Stuck at home, not knowing where this virus is going, your winged words reach into my soul. Thank you Bob Dylan.
Rickey Lee Bauman what is of interest is Dylan sending this in an email stating: ´Greetings to my fans and followers with gratitude for all your support and loyalty across the years. This is an unreleased song we recorded a while back that you might find interesting. Stay safe, stay observant and may God be with you. Bob Dylan’
I remember that day as if it was yesterday: we were living in a 2nd story flat in Germany and I was on my way to school. I was just a flight of stairs down when my mom opened the door and said: I can’t believe...they just shot the president! I was stunned...stopped on my way down...paused...and tears ran down my face...and I somehow new as a little boy: whow...that’s gonna be a challenging life I’m about to live!
It was a Friday back in 1963. I was all of 10 back then. They cancelled school the following Monday. On this Friday of 2023 60 years older contemplating this song now , the tragic state of our country and the world today. Eating leftovers from Thanksgiving yesterday. Making resolutions to improve my life.
I think the point of the song is that a president of the US was murdered by people he should have been able to trust..if eating pie is more interesting than that...God help you..
Blood on the Tracks was always my favorite Dylan album. The most beautiful melodies and lyrics. Blonde on Blonde was a close second, with his incredibly unique and entrancing lyrics. Love and Theft next. But Rough and Rowdy Ways has shaken everything up. It left me gobsmacked. This is his greatest masterpiece, among many masterpieces. So grateful to have such a tremendous artist during my lifetime.
I'm 7 years younger than Bob, grew up with him, lived my life with him and now I grow old with him. This epic work puts me in a trance-like state every time - an utterly extraordinary contemplation of the events and cultural landscape of the 60s. It's a perfect demonstration of why Dylan is a Nobel laureate. It's like a painting, a work of literature and a song all rolled into one - a monumental work of art by an artist whose genius seems to have no limit.
I'm 22 and absolutely love Dylan, literally my absolute hero. It's ashame I never experienced the 60s. It's always been the period I've found the most interest in. The Dylan merchandise I have is unreal lol.
Mr Dylan, Aloha to a boy from Duluth Minnesota. A masterpiece, nice work, nice storytelling, you cover everything plus more. I am honored to listen to this piece. A piano, a violin, ( maybe some cello]. soft background drums. So different without your guitar and harmonica. I will listen to this forever. It’s a giant history lesson set to music. You honor so many musicians and others that were so relevant in our country, and actors, and the Birdman of Alcatraz. You are an impossible act to follow, moonlight sonata in F sharp, I love every bloody line and chord and harmony. I look at the Big Island coastline, hear this song in the crashing waves. My blood and blonde hair go off to you. Mahalo my genius for making my life worthwhile as we struggle through these changing times. Can’t express how important it is and I will teach it and have the students shut their eyes and teach what you are saying. Then they can draw abstract art to the piece. LynetteLisez age 70 but I’m younger than that now. You are my eagle no window, no broken wing. Mahalo and thanks in every language in the world. Aloha ❤️
I am not ashamed or embarrassed to say I cried through this entire song. These were the days of our youth. We cannot ever forget, and Dylan, as always, speaks for all of us.
I'm right there with you, and I just can't believe how far our Democratic party has fallen, now steamrolling the American worker, fighting for the illegal immigrant low wage labor force and putting them above Americans, and in terms of the racial identity landscape they've harvested, putting illegals above black Americans smh. Trump 2020.
It's about much more than that though...funny he picked now to release it. It's about a nation traumatized. The fear. The sadness. The conspiracy. The people behind it. The day the World stood still. Oh the relevance...
So truely..john kennedy was so radiant..for America..and a new way for the world.... we hope that we will see the light at the end of this dark tunnel ..
Started seriously listening to Dylan while in the army in 67. His words stayed in my head and gave me hope all during my time in Vietnam and to this day. His is the voice of our generation. May he stay forever young.
@@tkdcoach He's laying bare the architecture if the Luciferian Deep State. Hopefully the Patriots really are "in control" as Q has said many times now. The Silent War continues.
I think that he is telling us that we have accepted fads, and fashions and frippery to replace honesty, truth and justice. We should wake up now, before it’s too late.
@@fcawley2042 Trump Is of 2Q2Q There are people that follow Kennedy Kennedy Is been killed by illuminati like Lincoln and Jackson The enemy Is massonery
Agreed! Wake up but also DO something. As Mr. Dylan says, be observant. Challenge the establishment power on all sides of the political fence. They are entrenched and still conducting ops like JFK.
Canada is dying too.. we're in worse fix than the Americans. We're fascist if you understand the definition, not the dumb accusation phrase. We have a merger of corporations and government. Our news is state media almost all funded employees of the government.@@jamiehalifax4954
Bob was 22 when JFK was assassinated, it obviously affected him greatly, as it did anyone in my generation. Thank you, Bob, for being the voice of my generation.
After all these years the loss is still felt deeply, personally. Hearts that still ache for that better time will relate to your prose. Thank you most kindly.
We will never forget. they blew out the brains of our favorite president in front of all our faces and then mocked and ridiculed US about it for the past 50+ years. Then they took out his closest brother and even his junior in '99. Trump knows. Q knows. Anons know. Pretty much everyone knows. We cannot be healed until we bring this to light. THANK YOU BOB!!!
@@johnnix4094 Why has lots of answers, but the most impressive is they wanted to invade Vietnam so they could transfer wealth from the Treasury to themselves and their rich buddies.
There was a movie that came out shortly after Kennedy was killed, 1964. Wonder if Bob tucked that away somewhere for use at a later date. He does that a lot. www.imdb.com/title/tt0058383/
This beast system you speak of is Life On Earth. The concept of living in peace exists nowhere on this planet or in the known universe except within the human mind and consciousness.
@@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232 My family and family life was as close to perfect, loving, and supportive as one could ever hope to have. Because of that fact I am actually a very caring and empathetic human being. That being the case, what I stated is absolute fact. Nature and the Universe does not give a shit about human feelings, emotions, or thoughts. There is no "system" that enables or guarantees peace for all. Those admirable human notions and aspirations, if and when they are achieved come from the bottom up, not from the top down. The ideal is to have a system that allows most people to rise above their natural state. To give them a stake in the system. The mistake is in believing that unless there are no tragedies or travesties the system is beastly. Of course, something like Covid can come out of nowhere and wreck the publics faith in the very system they need to believe in. That is nature kicking in the door of our house of delusion that we are above it all. We are not, very trying and worrisome times ahead.
Unquestionably the most important and beautiful song/poem/piece of literature for those who were alive when the murder took place. One can hear the sorrow and fatigue in Dylan’s voice.🙏
@@AllisonRedd -You probably are stupid enough to swallow The Oswald Acted Alone garbage too!Nothing says brain dead,no curiosity like that! JFK was a great man I wonder how many people Allison will inspire in her life as compared with John Fitzgerald Kennedy!
I'm sorry that it happened to you America🎉🎉I'm Australian but remember learning about this president as a kid and a poster in our class that said"" some people look at life and ask Why? I look at what might have been and ask "" Why not ?" I feel for you all.Every day🎉🎉Please come over and live in Aus.🎉🎉🎉 Rose🎉
I was in front of our tiny Zenith television, home with a cold, eleven years old. It will always feel like yesterday. When we pause for the truth of what actually transpired that day, most of us will be dead, too. Thank you for this, Bob Dylan. It is far beyond time.
I’ve been listening to you for about 55 years now. You never cease to amaze me. You are one of a kind, may you always stay forever young. Thank you mr. Dylan.
This Your Gr8est Achievement Bob. An Absolutely Stunning Masterpiece is 'Murder Most Foul'. Thank-You Bob For Your Brilliance...THE GREATEST SONGWRITER OFF ALL-TIME!!
@@marconcrsr Fabrizio De Andre Died at age 58, but was good at Interpreting Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen. Don't know if he had any Original Classics in English, but in Italian he wrote a vast amount of Songs, Panther..... Bob by comparison, was in a Different Universe than Most Writers and Acknowledged as The Best.
Only Bob Dylan can capture the overwhelming tragedy of that day in a way that rings true to my own experiences and feelings as 12 year old girl on hearing of what happened in Dallas that day.
Not exactly the brightest man for evidence is Dylan. Overwhelming evidence shows Oswald did it. Indulge in fantasy all you want. Bugliosi and Posner proved beyond doubt Oswald did it.
@@nickharris9761 Surely you jest or work for the Deep State. Smh No logical person thinks one man planned and executed this assassination. Trump had promised to release the 'Secret Documents' concerning the JFK assassination but balked. Do you really think he balked because all it said was that Oswald did it alone. Wake Up
Bob Dylan sold his soul to the DEVIL, he said so in an interview, he said he signed his named in BLOOD to a lifelong contract. Guilt can provide truthful writing such as this.Bob Dylan should have exposed the entertainment industry long ago. He choose to stay silent, and many people have lost there lives in the time that has past.
Glad he's still alive making music like this because we don't have a current day replacement. Too many people are silent about present-day wrongdoings.
I don't know what to say about it other than I'm deeply moved by it. As of writing I'm 38 years old, 39 this year but I don't feel a day over 18 or so. I started listening to Bob around 2010 or so, ridiculously late but I was born much too late and at wrong lattitude, or maybe not, who's to say anyway...In the fall/winter of 2020 and spring 2021 I drove city buses in the town of Zgierz in central Poland and I was listening to the music pretty much all the time while driving. I remember I often listened to this song late at night making my last round..the mood suited the late hour and the empty streets...and I know all the stuff about Johnson and the blink on the plane, grassy knoll and all that. When I was younger more often that not when I listened to Bob's early stuff I had tears in my eyes. It touched something in my soul that I cannot put my finger on...forgive my unwordiness.. :)

@@Michael69 The systematic invasion to many innocent countries orchestrate mainly by oil companies and Trump as president in a pandemic that needs to save lives over economic growth (but he is trying to do the opossite). That is just the tip of the iceberg of a system that was taken by greed over moral values. That's what America lost when they killed JFK without any punishment.
I'd say Bob is a Trump supporter,only 5% of Americans have a World Biblical view,and only 20% of Christians have a World Biblical view,no wonder we live in a world of murder most foul.Find Jesus while we all still have a chance

@Yorx Co lol thats a bit strong... but i used to think he walked on water... but thru the years ive come to think he is a poor excuse of s human being. he never once spoke up and held an proper conversation in public... not even for the hell of it. i think the money led him astray. he used to be handsome,,, but became grotesque thru the yrs of money. he has insight into the truth, but his love of money keeps him so distracted its wasted on him....
Yorx Co I personally find your comment asinine. You write that he’s a twat without providing any reasons why ? And it was the Nobel prize, not the prize for a novel 🤣🤣🤣. Have you actually listened to www.nobelprize.org/prizes/literature/2016/dylan/lecture/ ?
Listen to Dylan and you understand why he is loved by his fans. Painting pictures with words; paper his canvas to bring the masterpieces alive. Don't get hung up on the voice, the power of Dylan is the lyrics pure and simple. The poetry is breathtaking. The world needs the music of Bob Dylan now more than ever.
And a nice crackly voice he has to deliver the lyrics in the only right way. And some soothing instrumentation too. It all builds up to the brilliancy of this piece of art. Everything fits perfectly together, imho...
Poetry? This is nothing like his poetry, it's simplistic doggerel anyone could have scribbled, shows conclusively that even Dylan can turn out crap. His talent tailed off some time ago and this would have been better unwritten.
What a song! I was born on 22.11.1954 and can still remember that day in 1963, it was my ninth birthday. It was afternoon here in Germany when the terrible news arrived. All the adults invited to our home were deeply shocked and went home immediately. Of course, as a child I didn't yet understand what this day meant in world history, but it stayed with me. Many people my age sometimes wish me a happy birthday even today because they remember the anniversary of Kenney's death. Bob Dylan has accompanied me my whole life with all his great lyrics and I have often attended his concerts. As Bruce Springsteen so aptly puts it in "No Surrender": "We learnd from three minutes record more than we ever learnd in School.“
if he released this back in the days of GWB then it would have been a different ... GHWB and GWB were both long gone from public office . beautiful piece nonetheless from Mr Dylan
You know, I’m sitting here in Ireland during the covid-19 shutdown thinking: thank god for folk songs. By coincidence, Bob Dylan’s name is trending on twitter. I think the worst. But then, a miracle. A new song! But, it’s actually more of an opus. At first I think, 17 minutes on JFK - a bit much. But this is perfect. I’m lucky to have heard this on the day it was released. Went I’m sad, I think how lucky I have been to been alive while Bob Dylan was writing songs. Thanks for this, thanks for not giving up on us. On the truth.
I don't listen to Dylan all the time. When I do it's such a treat I can't stop. I wanna hear it all. I've been listening to him all day long for two days straight from the beginning. Trying to choose one favorite song is impossible. There are just too many that are just to good. After this one I'm gonna finish up with Forever Young. Love this mysterious man and his music so much.
I have listened to this few times and each time I cry.. I have no words.. I am 69 years old and every time I listen to this the 8th grade version of myself shows itself..Thanks Bob you have created another masterpiece..
This is a great sequel to Tempest, and another in a long, unprecedented series of stunning masterpieces. It is a brilliant art work, showing a truthful essence of that murder. As always, I like the voice as much, or possibly even more than the poetic comosition. Really great to have this song now!
The ineffable feeling of sadness and satisfaction this song evokes in me is simply magnificent and also I can't count how many times I've given it a listen. Thank you Bob, this album got me through 2020. Greatest songwriter of all time.
I can't find a place to comment. 9:41 The line of the soul of our nation being torn away is too true. I understand, of course, why this would probably not get played on the radio but I enjoy it quite a bit.
This stopped me in my tracks and transported me to my home so many years ago. I remember seeing my mom cry at the kitchen sink as she heard the news. I still have the copy of the Omaha World-Herald from the next day. Even so young I knew things would never be the same and history had forked. I would say that the timing of this song coming out now is perfect. I was never much of a Dylan fan. but I am grateful to him for this. He said beautifully what most of us who experienced this felt and have carried for many years. Thanks Bob, I'm glad you did this. Breathtaking.
.....the holiday program came to an abrupt halt....it was a rainy day.....all of us second graders were given a candy cane and sent home knowing something bad happened..Ms. Russ was had tears in her eyes....got home and my mom was sitting on the stairs to our upstairs crying. Remember the day like it was - today - some 57 years ago. A Nation mourns even still today, 57 years ago......
I can't stand Dylan... but THIS JFK tune is fantastic (even the music, which Bob clearly did not create nor compose). Sounds like Leonard Cohen meets The Velvet Underground's "Heroin"! FUN FACT! the corrupt MSM hyped Beatlemania as GOVT PROPAGANDA to try and get the USA to "move on" from the CIA's murder, I mean that commie's murder of JFK! There's nothing in this world that's honest, really.
Did you know that GHW Bush -- who clearly played a part in this murder, and was there in Dallas smiling afterwards -- said he "couldn't remember where he was when JFK died?"
Pity most folks won’t hear this songs. We live in the times of lies. Thank you bob only you could tell this tragedy so beautifully, thank you mr Dylan.
Eric O'Brien I get that sense too, Eric. I was nine years old on that fateful day in Dallas that changed us. Dylan drops many names here that add to the melancholy if not frustration and a great sense of loss. He remains the greatest American poet as far as I’m concerned.
Have you heard the other single Mr. Dylan release? It's on pandora and worth a listen. The illustration for album cover is...well go see for yourself. It's also a very good song.
"They killed him once they killed him twice, they killed him like a human sacrifice; the day that they killed him someone said to me son, the age of the Anti-Christ has only just begun." ...damn, that hits hard.
His death was a King sacrifice. The Canaanite elite has a fetish for human sacrifices. They got rid of a man that threatened their plans and quenched their gods' thirst for blood at the same time.
You cried. Then you understood it, well enough...It's not about WWI and a specific time in history so much as it is just about war as a symptom of inherent human sickness and the dehumanizing effect war has on all involved...I know I cried at least twice.
Add into the list "O Brother, Where Art Thou? i 2000 crime comedy-drama film written, produced, and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, and starring George Clooney, John Turturro, and Tim Blake Nelson, with John Goodman, Holly Hunter, and Charles Durning in supporting roles. I watch it every few months because It's just good!

Bobby,Bobby,ol' Uncle Bob. Finest,most original work you've ever created. I've been in love with your poetry since 1967,when I was 8 years old and "Lay Lady Lay" came on the radio as I watched the sunrise from an old farm house outside of Cleveland,Ohio. Being 8,I didn't get all that sexy stuff,I just loved the song. Now at age 64, I'm more in love with your work than ever. I used to think you were the greatest poet since Shakespeare. Now, it's a toss up. Love you dearly, Maestro Dylan.
"There's twelve million souls that are listenin' in." That was then. Millions of souls have tuned in to listen to this mysteriously timed new work from Dylan ~ during a global pandemic and the political nightmare we're all (including Bob Dylan) suffering from. I think it's his way of handing out a little sane comfort to us all while the political insanity blares on around us. After all, he's been doing it almost all of his life, and thank god we've had him to listen to! Thank you for everything, Bob. The answer is still blowing in the wind, but it's certainly good to hear from you again at a time like this!
@sillybillybadboy Trump has been critical of the Fed for not destroying the value of the dollar fast enough, i.e., depreciating the currency by making more of the artificial (paper) "money." So, what makes you believe the bankers game is over, when the Fed still exists in the 1913 law? But there was never any authority for the government in the Supreme Law of the Land document to create any central bank, much less one controlled by a private cartel of tiny oligarchs.
@@horsecockphepner Yeah, there's probably like 10 other versions. That's the lesson with Dylan. Every song has an infinite number of other versions we won't know about for years.
I was born and grew up in Liverpool in the 60's when Beatlemania was everywhere. Of course they were fantastic , but Bob Dylan and in particular this song , perhaps even amongst his own superb back catalogue , is quite simply in a class of its own. It is beautiful yet haunting in equal measure , an absolute masterpiece. Shakespeare himself would have been proud to have written it. Bravo , Bob !

Greetings to my fans and followers with gratitude for all your support and loyalty across the years. This is an unreleased song we recorded a while back that you might find interesting. Stay safe, stay observant and may God be with you. - Bob Dylan
Thank You. God be with you.
Thank you sir. This is a beautiful track
Thank you very much for your music and your poetry Bob, Congratulations from Mexico!!!
Delivered when it was needed most.
Thank you and also with you and yours ❤
My husband was murdered in 1972. Shot with a high powered rifle while sitting in a restaurant. Slain by a total stranger. 28 years old. My daughter and I have lived 51 years with the mental torture of that nightmare. I think of him every time I listen to this masterful song. It inspired me to dig down deep in that dark hole and write. My ramblings go on and on. notebooks filled with words of pain and anger, lost time, dead dreams.
If only I had Bob's gift to create a masterpiece to so magnificently honor his time on earth.
I’m so deeply sorry about your precious husband. I pray Jesus holds your heart mind and soul and y’all’s daughter also, In Jesus Christ Mighty Name Amen 🙏🏼🍃🌸✝️🌿🕊️
My heart goes with you in all
you do i too have suffered. Find peace in your heart.regatds Sandra

Deepest condolences to you. And for your courage, all these years. I’m listening on the Eve of 60 years. I weep for all we have lost. I was 13.

@@grahamtugwell5266 Exactly, Dylan is keeping the disinfo alive with this song. But he could be giving us clues to such, as well, that the whole thing was just a diversion.

Fiona Apple was blessed when Bob Dylan asked her to play on piano for these 17 minutes. She was afraid of it, but Dylan calmed her “You’re not here to be perfect, you’re here to be you.”
Thank you for adding this beautiful context.

Bob was a perfect man! A beautiful person!
Although bob may have said this is was always transparent . He in at least one interview said he didn t know where his songs and music( came from).
Happy 80th. Brother... Many more... Luv.. u.
My wish is to meet Mr bob Dylan and this is why. .. In a world of melodies and rhymes, Bob Dylan’s music transcends time. His lyrics deep, his voice unique, A legend in the music mystique.
To meet this icon, oh what a dream, To hear his stories, to see him gleam. His influence vast, his impact profound, In his presence, inspiration is found.
So let us sit, let us converse, With the man who made history traverse. To learn from him, to share a thought, In the presence of greatness, we’ll be caught.
I met Bob. He isn’t friendly. He doesn’t chat. When the concert started he nary said a word. He just sang. See what I did there? He “just” sang. That’s “all” he did. And he doesn’t chat with us. Why? Because he has given all his words to us through the years IN HIS SONGS. what else is there for him to say? He has told us everything: he loves us; he cares about the world we live in. He wants us to always strive to do and BE better! He has poured out his heart through the decades. And we want him to CHAT with us? The man doesn’t chat! He sings volumes!!!
EXACTLY!!!!! And I totally get it. I hate small talk. Most people have nothing to say - just entertainment, fluff, or ego. No useful reason to open their mouths, other than to draw attention to themselves or gossip. Gee, I sound like a curmudgeon! I'm not, though. I love humans! I just have little use for blather.@@robinholbrook6576

The day America was changed forever. Haunting song.
Only one artist could paint this picture in a song.
Thank you, Mr. Dylan.
I remember too much about those days. How does a bullet go through 2 people and a car seat-back and look pristine... while it's twin hits JFK in the head and explodes into a vapor?
The Secret Service follow car had a rifle manned by a rookie. The bullets from that firearm explode into a cloud of shrapnel. That's why the x-rays were doctored.
how was it changed forever?
I just figured it out. The ship's "Mercey" & "Comfort" are for all the trafficked children they are saving. God bless President Donald J. Trump and our beloved Patriots.
Leonard Cohen could have painted it quite well too.
@@severeestimate9361 We listen to the scientists. Not Trump's Christian Witch Doctor Whisperers.
There are miracles in this world. Bob Dylan the enigma springing a "new" old song out of the blue is amazing. A lot of us needed this song in this tough time. Captivating, strange, sad, beautiful, and moving.
hear hear!
Jeff Bigby is this even a song lmao
it's about today as well as the JFK assassination.
It's one of his best epic songs
I agree
Only one man can write 17minutes of couplets accompanied by a rambling tune and have me absolutely transfixed. Despite its tragic theme it’s totally hypnotic. Bobs voice just touches your heart and breaks it in two.
Precisely. Thank you.
Exactly
America's beloved poet. Thank you for so much, over the years~ God Bless You Always ~ 😘💋🥰🤗
President Kennedy had a Heavenly seat, a God eye view, as America made it to the moon~ 😌
Same for me too, this is a masterpiece I play it over and over, the truths are heartbreaking, I was only a small child when this happened Yet it affected me greatly, still does. Wow what a beautiful track.
*I remember watching my father cry his heart out that day. I can still see it like it was happening that day. I was 7. I will never forget. Now, I am doing my best to shine the Light on this Darkness. The Great Awakening. God Bless you, Bob Dylan!*
Simply brilliant. What a privilege it has been to have your songs in our lives for all these years. They are a precious gift. Thank you.
Oh I'm so sad for the seven year old you seeing your Dad sobbing his eyes out.I have the same memory when I was four and my dad was sobbing his eyes out at kitchen table.My baby sister had died.Dianna Selena.She was only five and half months old.🎉🎉🎉🎉

He did in the 1980s look up his Christain albums. We still have a few at my mom's house. I think I'll go listen tomorrow.
Saw Dylan in 74' w/ the Band at the Spectrum. First concert since his motorcycle accident. I was so overwhelmed I wept. And almost 50 years later, I still weep. As only he could write this poetry and to be touched so deeply by his words.
I remember the day, Sister Harold knocked on our 2nd grade door and told us "the President has been shot go home." It was solemn, even then, we were all Irish Catholic kids named after Kennedys. The joy had left our life.and we did lose our soul as a nation, never to be found.
Thank you Mr Dylan. Your music changed my life. Thank you for writing this for your fans. Not a word or reference was lost on us.
I listen to it often, always makes me cry. No other man on earth could have captured it how you did. God bless.
Only Bob Dylan could write a 17-minute song and make you wish it were longer.
Q .
>pink floyd has entered the chat.
"Play it's for the dog that got no master" got to me. First because it's beautiful sad and touching and second because Bob still uses that old school language which could be taken as Politically Incorrect today. Hell, I even heard people say you shouldn't use the term 'owner' of your 'pet'. They are your 'animal companion'.😩

@@unquenchablefire70 "he/she is the king for me not elvis" might be the most popular quote about elvis since the day. I agree with you btw, he is it.
This is, quite simply, one of the greatest songs ever written. It's an honor to share the earth with Bob Dylan. May he live to be a thousand years old.
Allison Redd well done, clever observation.......you’re so smart!
I wish he could live forever writing songs. No one has ever done it better
his songs will be immortal on earth, his legacy keeping his presence felt . Not just the ones we've already heard. i dig what you're saying. the longer it goes on, the more i know it's a privilege to get all these songs as they come, in real time. And i'm grateful i lived long enough to hear this song when it came. I've needed it all my life, finally someone brought the words for what has happened, the story of what it's like. The story of what i didn't have words for and needed to have them.
For the uninitiated, remember that Bob Dylan is, among many other things, a poet. I have to agree with Creative Tradition, we are fortunate to be alive while Bob is still writing. Thanks for penning words that many of us still think.
Neighborhood Bully is good poetry and represents great quality of opinion too.
For the uninitiated, let us remember that Bob Dylan is initiated
This is code
Paul W , I had my daughter research both Dylan’s poetry. Needless to say she’s a fan and cried when she heard this. She’s 13 and said she’s honored that he released a Masterpiece in her generation.
He WAS a poet.
I was 16 when i bought my first Bob Dylan album,The Times they Are a-chaingin'. I played it all day long, my mother (RIP) wanted me to close the door and said, all day long, "this is not music". I am 76 now, Dylan's music has been part of all my life.Bob Dylan, and Thelonious Monk
Hey whoever you are thank you for those memories.
I feel the same way
I listened to this song countless times this year, it really carried me on through my troubles, through my sunshine and my darkest hours. I listened to this tune with a true smile on my face and I listened to it with rolling tears. After one year I came to the conclusion that to me this is unrepeatable, I feel this is one of the highest points a man will ever reach in art. I’m glad to be a 21st century bloke with the possibility to live this. And to all the people who will read this, just remember sometimes to “put your head out the window and let the good times roll”.
Oh I agree. This is high art. Most people just don't know it yet.
Much the same way blues can be healing even through depressing lyrics, Dylan has been able to do the same with his ageless music.
Well said Man
And also good sometimes to put your head out the window and say, "I'm mad as hell and I can't [?won't?] take it any more!"
So we’ll said! I feel it
‘Only dead men are free’
I feel blessed to have been alive when Dylan wrote and released a masterpiece
Don’t worry, Mr. President. Help’s on the way

We cannot allow those who have come of age and moved to the front of the fight, to then be hammered down - whether Democrat, Republican, Independent, or whatever. This is not just about one person or family; we have never wanted, and don't need, an American version of royalty to rule over us.

Henry David Thoreau,

I do the same thing.
I was 13 on 11/22/63, it was 20 days after my birthday. My mother died 12 hours before the president, and every time I hear this it takes me back to that surreal day and weekend. So I can't listen to this song too often myself. Pity, because it's a wonderful song.
I remember this day perfectly. He was going to take the Deep State down and go after the Central Banks. Sound familar? Our country came out of an innocence period & for me our government started showing its very ugly face. They are out to destroy our constitution. They want to be God's but it won't work.Our Gov't wants socialism..I say DENIED! God rules the treason teams of all nations have to face treason charges. Amen.
A country singer once said the following " this world is full of singers but only a few are chosen to tear our hearts out when they sing" Bob Dylan is undoubtedly among those few chosen to make us dream, to make us weep. This song is an extraordinary rendition of what happened in Dallas on November 23 of 1963. I know that when Mr. dies, it will be a very sad day.
Wholeheartedly agree
I remember that day. Loved Kennedy!
and it was right in time when the NEW NORMAL was introduced into the world....and the album named Shadow Kingdom

And he said on 60 minutes before this, he can't write great songs anymore!
I was in elementary school when this horror occurred. Decades later and after studying dozens of well researched books on the assassination, I still ponder this world changing event. Bob Dylan has been my friend through his music since the 60s. He still has the magic. This song is an instant classic and brings the “Murder Most Foul” back as if it was once again Nov. 22, 1963. Thank you Mr. Bob Dylan.
A masterpiece. Thank you ♥️
I was eleven Jim and I saw him as the only way the Cold War would end the threat of a global nuclear war, then they blew him away. The moment my faith in 'the system' ended. I'm 68 now and this song kinda explains my exact feelings, I still bring it up to this day. Hats off to Bob once again, a true masterpiece
I was 5 and my father took me and my brother to see him in San Antonio the day before. The president winked at me and nudged Jackie and pointed at us. My little brother was John John's age and I was Caroline's age, we looked like his own kids, the next day he was shot. I have never forgot that day and never will.
I am 65 years old and remembering this atrocity still hurts. Thank you for keeping the truth alive. Thank you for sharing your heart and mind with us.

I know, it's amazing, like he is a prophet. Just a man I know, but the lyrics over the years...wow isn't enough. Hallelujah!
"was a matter of timing, and the timing was right."
I remember that day as if it was yesterday: we were living in a 2nd story flat in Germany and I was on my way to school. I was just a flight of stairs down when my mom opened the door and said: I can’t believe...they just shot the president! I was stunned...stopped on my way down...paused...and tears ran down my face...and I somehow new as a little boy: whow...that’s gonna be a challenging life I’m about to live!
It was a Friday back in 1963. I was all of 10 back then. They cancelled school the following Monday. On this Friday of 2023 60 years older contemplating this song now , the tragic state of our country and the world today. Eating leftovers from Thanksgiving yesterday. Making resolutions to improve my life.
Hopefully some of the resolutions were successful.
I think the point of the song is that a president of the US was murdered by people he should have been able to trust..if eating pie is more interesting than that...God help you..
nothing more to say. The president shot and killed.
Blood on the Tracks was always my favorite Dylan album. The most beautiful melodies and lyrics. Blonde on Blonde was a close second, with his incredibly unique and entrancing lyrics. Love and Theft next. But Rough and Rowdy Ways has shaken everything up. It left me gobsmacked. This is his greatest masterpiece, among many masterpieces. So grateful to have such a tremendous artist during my lifetime.
I couldn’t agree more!
It seems you are easily gobsmacked, this is substandard stuff sung with a voice from beyond the grave. Agree with Blood on the tracks, though.
I almost feel like this is a different medium. Nobody wouyld have played this on AM radio in the mid 70's.
@@johansterk354 to everyone their own opinion of course but imho this is definitely not sub standard
New Morning is often overlooked when discussing great Dylan albums.
I'm 7 years younger than Bob, grew up with him, lived my life with him and now I grow old with him. This epic work puts me in a trance-like state every time - an utterly extraordinary contemplation of the events and cultural landscape of the 60s. It's a perfect demonstration of why Dylan is a Nobel laureate. It's like a painting, a work of literature and a song all rolled into one - a monumental work of art by an artist whose genius seems to have no limit.
I'm 22 and absolutely love Dylan, literally my absolute hero. It's ashame I never experienced the 60s. It's always been the period I've found the most interest in. The Dylan merchandise I have is unreal lol.
Yes hypnotic on so many levels.
I'm thirty-two and he has been a constant in the soundtrack of my life for my entire conscious memory of it, Bob is incredible!
Will be 69 next month....I grew up with him....never has there been a folk singer like this man nor ever will be :)
Mr Dylan, Aloha to a boy from Duluth Minnesota. A masterpiece, nice work, nice storytelling, you cover everything plus more. I am honored to listen to this piece. A piano, a violin, ( maybe some cello]. soft background drums. So different without your guitar and harmonica. I will listen to this forever.
It’s a giant history lesson set to music.
You honor so many musicians and others that were so relevant in our country, and actors, and the Birdman of Alcatraz. You are an impossible act to follow, moonlight sonata in F sharp, I love every bloody line and chord and harmony.
I look at the Big Island coastline, hear this song in the crashing waves.
My blood and blonde hair go off to you. Mahalo my genius for making my life worthwhile as we struggle through these changing times. Can’t express how important it is and I will teach it and have the students shut their eyes and teach what you are saying. Then they can draw abstract art to the piece. LynetteLisez age 70 but I’m younger than that now. You are my eagle no window, no broken wing. Mahalo and thanks in every language in the world. Aloha ❤️
I am not ashamed or embarrassed to say I cried through this entire song. These were the days of our youth. We cannot ever forget,
and Dylan, as always, speaks for all of us.
I'm right there with you, and I just can't believe how far our Democratic party has fallen, now steamrolling the American worker, fighting for the illegal immigrant low wage labor force and putting them above Americans, and in terms of the racial identity landscape they've harvested, putting illegals above black Americans smh. Trump 2020.
It's about much more than that though...funny he picked now to release it. It's about a nation traumatized. The fear. The sadness. The conspiracy. The people behind it. The day the World stood still. Oh the relevance...
Me too actually but me on my knees ... humble 😢
Who else is shacked up and tearing up to this?
So truely..john kennedy was so radiant..for America..and a new way for the world.... we hope that we will see the light at the end of this dark tunnel ..
You are a blessing for all humanity. Thank you for all the gifts you have given us

The whole world sits and sings about being alone. Bob releases a song about the Kennedy assassination. I think I love it.
They killed jfk
Is it really just about the Kennedy assassination, though? I say nope.
@@tkdcoach He's laying bare the architecture if the Luciferian Deep State. Hopefully the Patriots really are "in control" as Q has said many times now. The Silent War continues.
SuppersReady8880 what is the silent war?
If you’re suggesting that Dylan is part of deep state conspiracy bullshit then you’re even more deluded than the usual trumpster.
and tomorrow this great man will get 80 years old. Hope you will live forever Bob, love and best wishes!
Forever young!
He could die three times and still live forever=serve somebody
This song is nothing short of an American Masterpiece. God Bless you Bob Dylan, you are my favorite singer and poet.
That voice...!
@@SafeSetsFilm I played this for a friend. He said,"That voice!" . Then he said, "That's good poetry "!
God bless that man who openly claims he made deal with the Devil himself?
Yes it's american, like starwars, Vietnam, Irak, Syria and the next world war. You have no culture you are no nation you are NOTHING.
Masterpiece is a huge understatement..
I think that he is telling us that we have accepted fads, and fashions and frippery to replace honesty, truth and justice. We should wake up now, before it’s too late.

Bob was 22 when JFK was assassinated, it obviously affected him greatly, as it did anyone in my generation. Thank you, Bob, for being the voice of my generation.
37 would be more correct If i am not mistaken.
Patrick Eurolingua - Bob was born May 1941, JFK was assassinated November 1963.
Didn't lead many to actually do any research though.
@@patrickeurolingua6896 you were mistaken
He was born in Nov. 1925. That would make him 38 in 1963. If he was 22 in 1963 he would be running for the presidency at 27. I doubt that.
After all these years the loss is still felt deeply, personally. Hearts that still ache for that better time will relate to your prose. Thank you most kindly.
We will never forget. they blew out the brains of our favorite president in front of all our faces and then mocked and ridiculed US about it for the past 50+ years. Then they took out his closest brother and even his junior in '99. Trump knows. Q knows. Anons know. Pretty much everyone knows. We cannot be healed until we bring this to light. THANK YOU BOB!!!
Fake terror and corona are a result of that coup, which involved George Bush I.

For all those who have been murdered most foul by this beast system. May we all live in peace.
There was a movie that came out shortly after Kennedy was killed, 1964. Wonder if Bob tucked that away somewhere for use at a later date. He does that a lot. www.imdb.com/title/tt0058383/

@@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232 My family and family life was as close to perfect, loving, and supportive as one could ever hope to have. Because of that fact I am actually a very caring and empathetic human being. That being the case, what I stated is absolute fact. Nature and the Universe does not give a shit about human feelings, emotions, or thoughts. There is no "system" that enables or guarantees peace for all. Those admirable human notions and aspirations, if and when they are achieved come from the bottom up, not from the top down. The ideal is to have a system that allows most people to rise above their natural state. To give them a stake in the system. The mistake is in believing that unless there are no tragedies or travesties the system is beastly. Of course, something like Covid can come out of nowhere and wreck the publics faith in the very system they need to believe in. That is nature kicking in the door of our house of delusion that we are above it all. We are not, very trying and worrisome times ahead.

Unquestionably the most important and beautiful song/poem/piece of literature for those who were alive when the murder took place. One can hear the sorrow and fatigue in Dylan’s voice.🙏

Totally agree!
Bob Dylan sold his soul to the DEVIL, he said so in an interview, he said he signed his named in BLOOD to a lifelong contract. Guilt can provide truthful writing such as this.Bob Dylan should have exposed the entertainment industry long ago. He choose to stay silent, and many people have lost there lives in the time that has past.
@@gnd144 how do i get ahold of this contract? Why hasn't every upcoming artist get a deal like this? Where is the proof that it exists haha

I don't know what to say about it other than I'm deeply moved by it. As of writing I'm 38 years old, 39 this year but I don't feel a day over 18 or so. I started listening to Bob around 2010 or so, ridiculously late but I was born much too late and at wrong lattitude, or maybe not, who's to say anyway...In the fall/winter of 2020 and spring 2021 I drove city buses in the town of Zgierz in central Poland and I was listening to the music pretty much all the time while driving. I remember I often listened to this song late at night making my last round..the mood suited the late hour and the empty streets...and I know all the stuff about Johnson and the blink on the plane, grassy knoll and all that. When I was younger more often that not when I listened to Bob's early stuff I had tears in my eyes. It touched something in my soul that I cannot put my finger on...forgive my unwordiness.. :)
Well said. I know exactly what you mean. Along with everyone else who listens to Dylan. Resonates with the soul...

Why do you say we're hitting rock bottom now?
@@Michael69 The systematic invasion to many innocent countries orchestrate mainly by oil companies and Trump as president in a pandemic that needs to save lives over economic growth (but he is trying to do the opossite).
That is just the tip of the iceberg of a system that was taken by greed over moral values. That's what America lost when they killed JFK without any punishment.
You're not talkin' about Bob, are you ?!
Unfortunately, After JFK was assassinated they took God and Prayer 🙏 out of our schools 🏫. So very sad for our Children.

Over 50 years at the top of his game, modest and quite but carrying the human spirit within his frame.
@Yorx Co Your example is very poor
@Yorx Co lol thats a bit strong... but i used to think he walked on water... but thru the years ive come to think he is a poor excuse of s human being. he never once spoke up and held an proper conversation in public... not even for the hell of it. i think the money led him astray.
he used to be handsome,,, but became grotesque thru the yrs of money. he has insight into the truth, but his love of money keeps him so distracted its wasted on him....
What about you ? What about me ? Who do you know better to take a judgement ?
Yorx Co
I personally find your comment asinine.
You write that he’s a twat without providing any reasons why ?
And it was the Nobel prize, not the prize for a novel 🤣🤣🤣. Have you actually listened to www.nobelprize.org/prizes/literature/2016/dylan/lecture/ ?
@Yorx Co Firstly Russian bot, learn better English; it's the Nobel Prize as in Alfred Nobel.

That’s exactly what I was thinking as I was listening.
A M. He admits to selling his soul on many occasions you dolt
Listen to Dylan and you understand why he is loved by his fans. Painting pictures with words; paper his canvas to bring the masterpieces alive. Don't get hung up on the voice, the power of Dylan is the lyrics pure and simple. The poetry is breathtaking. The world needs the music of Bob Dylan now more than ever.
And a nice crackly voice he has to deliver the lyrics in the only right way. And some soothing instrumentation too. It all builds up to the brilliancy of this piece of art. Everything fits perfectly together, imho...
@@tomlaros6500 Exactly. It's like complaining that the voice of say Robert de Niro is not nice.
Hear hear.
Poetry? This is nothing like his poetry, it's simplistic doggerel anyone could have scribbled, shows conclusively that even Dylan can turn out crap. His talent tailed off some time ago and this would have been better unwritten.
Listening to my favorites of his tonight and thinking the same thing. Love you Bob!!!
What a song!
I was born on 22.11.1954 and can still remember that day in 1963, it was my ninth birthday. It was afternoon here in Germany when the terrible news arrived. All the adults invited to our home were deeply shocked and went home immediately. Of course, as a child I didn't yet understand what this day meant in world history, but it stayed with me. Many people my age sometimes wish me a happy birthday even today because they remember the anniversary of Kenney's death. Bob Dylan has accompanied me my whole life with all his great lyrics and I have often attended his concerts. As Bruce Springsteen so aptly puts it in "No Surrender": "We learnd from three minutes record more than we ever learnd in School.“
Dylan with his most ambitious piece of work and it‘s 2020! Also the clearest voice he‘s sang with it in a long time

You know, I’m sitting here in Ireland during the covid-19 shutdown thinking: thank god for folk songs. By coincidence, Bob Dylan’s name is trending on twitter. I think the worst. But then, a miracle. A new song! But, it’s actually more of an opus. At first I think, 17 minutes on JFK - a bit much. But this is perfect. I’m lucky to have heard this on the day it was released. Went I’m sad, I think how lucky I have been to been alive while Bob Dylan was writing songs. Thanks for this, thanks for not giving up on us. On the truth.

I don't listen to Dylan all the time. When I do it's such a treat I can't stop. I wanna hear it all. I've been listening to him all day long for two days straight from the beginning. Trying to choose one favorite song is impossible. There are just too many that are just to good. After this one I'm gonna finish up with Forever Young. Love this mysterious man and his music so much.
I get it.
Now, we finally know that Bob, way deep down, is as sincere as he is hilarious. Truly number one. He had nothing to live up to but then he did anyhow.
Yes, a lot of sincerity. The whole thing feels deeply personal to me and I wonder, did Bob Dylan ever meet JFK?
I have listened to this few times and each time I cry.. I have no words.. I am 69 years old and every time I listen to this the 8th grade version of myself shows itself..Thanks Bob you have created another masterpiece..
This is a great sequel to Tempest, and another in a long, unprecedented series of stunning masterpieces. It is a brilliant art work, showing a truthful essence of that murder. As always, I like the voice as much, or possibly even more than the poetic comosition. Really great to have this song now!
I do not look at Dylan's works as individual pieces, but as a body or work!
For 60 odd years he has been blowing minds for a living ...one of a kind
davysaltcoats interesting choice of words
The ineffable feeling of sadness and satisfaction this song evokes in me is simply magnificent and also I can't count how many times I've given it a listen. Thank you Bob, this album got me through 2020. Greatest songwriter of all time.

9:41 The line of the soul of our nation being torn away is too true.
I understand, of course, why this would probably not get played on the radio but I enjoy it quite a bit.
The song was apparently recorded a few years back
It's exactly like that. Beautiful sentiment.
Sounds like a line that could be in this song.
This stopped me in my tracks and transported me to my home so many years ago. I remember seeing my mom cry at the kitchen sink as she heard the news. I still have the copy of the Omaha World-Herald from the next day. Even so young I knew things would never be the same and history had forked. I would say that the timing of this song coming out now is perfect. I was never much of a Dylan fan. but I am grateful to him for this. He said beautifully what most of us who experienced this felt and have carried for many years. Thanks Bob, I'm glad you did this. Breathtaking.
i, like you, had an adult crying that day. i was in art class as a 4th grader. our teacher cried and school was closed. the road forked for sure.
.....the holiday program came to an abrupt halt....it was a rainy day.....all of us second graders were given a candy cane and sent home knowing something bad happened..Ms. Russ was had tears in her eyes....got home and my mom was sitting on the stairs to our upstairs crying. Remember the day like it was - today - some 57 years ago. A Nation mourns even still today, 57 years ago......
I can't stand Dylan... but THIS JFK tune is fantastic (even the music, which Bob clearly did not create nor compose).
Sounds like Leonard Cohen meets The Velvet Underground's "Heroin"!
FUN FACT!

to "move on" from the CIA's murder, I mean that commie's murder of JFK!
There's nothing in this world that's honest, really.
@@bongisland2762 The mafia did it
Did you know that GHW Bush -- who clearly played a part in this murder, and was there in Dallas smiling afterwards -- said he "couldn't remember where he was when JFK died?"
Pity most folks won’t hear this songs. We live in the times of lies. Thank you bob only you could tell this tragedy so beautifully, thank you mr Dylan.
Man this is the most detailed, descriptive and revealing piece of music/poetry/writing I've ever heard.
😢😢😢
Its incredible
damn right....its just a shame is it not? humans
Love bob. But,,,,,,,,,,
Ahh fuck it. Not worth sayin.
Nicely put just like the song explains it all
I tried listening to this without shedding a tear..........I tried. Bravo Mr. Dylan
Eric O'Brien I get that sense too, Eric. I was nine years old on that fateful day in Dallas that changed us. Dylan drops many names here that add to the melancholy if not frustration and a great sense of loss. He remains the greatest American poet as far as I’m concerned.
....word......
Are you seriously that gay?
Me too
Have you heard the other single Mr. Dylan release? It's on pandora and worth a listen. The illustration for album cover is...well go see for yourself. It's also a very good song.
"They killed him once they killed him twice, they killed him like a human sacrifice;
the day that they killed him someone said to me son, the age of the Anti-Christ has only just begun."

Bobby,Bobby,ol' Uncle Bob. Finest,most original work you've ever created. I've been in love with your poetry since 1967,when I was 8 years old and "Lay Lady Lay" came on the radio as I watched the sunrise from an old farm house outside of Cleveland,Ohio. Being 8,I didn't get all that sexy stuff,I just loved the song. Now at age 64, I'm more in love with your work than ever. I used to think you were the greatest poet since Shakespeare. Now, it's a toss up. Love you dearly, Maestro Dylan.

"There's twelve million souls that are listenin' in." That was then. Millions of souls have tuned in to listen to this mysteriously timed new work from Dylan ~ during a global pandemic and the political nightmare we're all (including Bob Dylan) suffering from. I think it's his way of handing out a little sane comfort to us all while the political insanity blares on around us. After all, he's been doing it almost all of his life, and thank god we've had him to listen to! Thank you for everything, Bob. The answer is still blowing in the wind, but it's certainly good to hear from you again at a time like this!
You might like Jackson Browne’s new release~ A little soon to say...yes, they know.
Or maybe President Trump is here to make them pay for what they did to JFK. It's time to open our eyes
@sillybillybadboy Trump has been critical of the Fed for not destroying the value of the dollar fast enough, i.e., depreciating the currency by making more of the artificial (paper) "money." So, what makes you believe the bankers game is over, when the Fed still exists in the 1913 law? But there was never any authority for the government in the Supreme Law of the Land document to create any central bank, much less one controlled by a private cartel of tiny oligarchs.
Knowing Bob, this would be the short version.
probably 3 other versions in different keys too
@@horsecockphepner Yeah, there's probably like 10 other versions. That's the lesson with Dylan. Every song has an infinite number of other versions we won't know about for years.

Of course they were fantastic , but Bob Dylan and in particular this song , perhaps even amongst his own superb back catalogue , is quite simply in a class of its own. It is beautiful yet haunting in equal measure , an absolute masterpiece. Shakespeare himself would have been proud to have written it. Bravo , Bob !
“Riding in the back seat next to my wife..headed right on into the afterlife.” Dylan gives me chills man...
Cinematic verses, brought me to tears
Surely am crying.
