@Kevin Boyle I dont blame him for not wanting to get shot. It was just getting to hot back then.just like now.

I think his rant about Time Magazine is spot on. He is trying to say that things are complex, and when you want to easily catagorize, label, attach a genre, it;s too limiting, and his work defies all those things, and also, he's right about people not knowing each other, and trying to do so through a little interview, first of all, the power dynamic is unbalanced, so how could you possibly know anything worthwhile Dylan's going to tell you in that scenario? The reporter got upset because he thought he was important Time Mag guy, and Dylan doesn't really put out those kinds of airs, but he did call him out by saying, you never even heard me sing,....then the reporter asks all these questions, virtually knowing nothing about what Dylan does, and that seems to be what he only cares about...Dylan caring about what he does for a living. Not his personal life. His craft, his artistry.
If you don’t answer questions the press will print lies. I guess Dylan wasn’t that bright because if his purpose was as you state then he defeated himself.
Well, somewhere among the infinite series of inharmonic overtones, is the right note. But since each overtone gets lower and lower in volume, by the time the right note is produced, it will be too low for anyone to hear. However possibly your dog can hear it.
Yeah, he did a lot of things before a lot of people. I just saw him live a couple of hours ago. Great show. Catch this Rough and Rowdy Ways tour if you can.
The first time I saw this clip, I thought it was so jarring. But after watching the whole film this clip is from Don't Look Back it is so much more powerful within the context of the film. The press was so brutal of him, everyone was so critical and held him in such contempt. As if he was the problem with the world, they weren't accustomed to a public figure being so real; the mainstream has to reject counter-culture. . Gonna rewatch the film again soon it was so good.
I adore his work, but nothing sounds better at Times Magazine than an artist bashing Times Magazine. I don't think he had perceived this yet at that point but surely he realized it a few years later, as he changed his attitude towards the media (almost vanishing).
You have mo faith to loose and you know it Bob Dylan the greatest songwriter and piety of all time and I don't like some of his stuff get Oh Mercy brilliant then you will see listen don't hear then you will be a believer
I like the 1966 Bootleg Series. I found a copy of the original bootleg from the late 60's, and personally I don't like the Highway 61 Revisited version as much. The bootleg version is much more raw and powerful.
''Something is happening here, but you don't know what it is. Do you, Mr Jones?'' Dylan being just as judgmental a prick as the generation he's ''rebelling'' against. Sure, when I was 20 I was applauding Dylan's perspective. Now, not so. much. Man, we were brats!
Really, I thought we all had this amount of gutsy confidence in our 20s. It is like that beats most people down. Most young people are full of confidence and think they can change the world. I remember when Millenials were talking about it online thinking they were the first generation that believed they could make a better world. Now they are all in their 40s worrying about their mortgages and the price of gas. I don't see them creating a utopia and I've seen Gen Z attacking Millenials in the same way they attacked previous generations. Life takes away the confidence of youth for most people. In fact "the confidence of youth" is literally a cliche.
@@Nick-lz5lx he talks about young people change nothing, but the whole life-style and fashion of the new america from freedom till so called peace that is going on till this day built after those young people of San Francisco and other parts of America in the 1960s, from people like Bob Dylan. just look at the 1950s life-style and how the Young generation of the 60s changed that.
This is in the 60s. Dylan was in his 20s , absolutely incredible. This is around the time some reporter asked him how he described his own style, and he replied “I think of myself as a song and dance man“
So sharp. (Good sharp). 45 years ago I bicycled for five hours to listen over the fence (I had no ticket or money) to his Blackbushe Airport concert. When he came on he had the gates thrown open so everyone could come in for free. I was standing way back, but his live performance re-energised all those songs we'd gotten used to on the radio and on records. It was a beautiful experience.
So, did you go in once the gates came down? And if so, what did you do with your bicycle? Either way, standing with the crowd or with your bicycle, what Dylan did must have been extremely rewarding, it would have been for me.
@@NattyBeGood Yes I went in. I must have locked the bike up somewhere. Although the stage was far away, the sound and the emotions of his performance felt close. Then a kind person next to me loaned me his binoculars for a closer view. I seem to remember Dylan wearing a sparkly purple suit, but it may have just been the lighting. I hope that everyone gets their own special memory of a music legend so they can pass on the experience to those who couldn’t be there.
@@vintagethings9187I got to see Frankie valli with my best friend about two years ago, what a great experience. Here’s a guy who’s in his 80s singing with horrible autotune, but it didn’t even matter because he’s a legend. I’ve always loved his music and it was such a privilege to get to see him in person, just a hundred feet or so from me
I think Bob was simply saying he didn't like being critiqued because the press and his fans often read him wrong. So, he critiqued the magazine to make his point. But, I think maybe Bob's message came out cryptic and obtuse because he spoke in song-language. lol
I saw this man play yesterday, it was my first time seeing him play live. I went with my little brother. It was one of the most mesmerizing things I have ever witnessed in my life. My brother was next to me freaking/spazzing out the entire time. Just the idea of being in the same room with this legend is maddening. Sitting down with this man and holding a conversation to me would be like talking to a man "WHO IS" The French Revelation. What he has done transcends who he is. He's a brilliant artist and a legend.
+gears5336 Yeah, I love Varg's creative output, but that man has committed career suicide/alienated so many fans of his music (understatement of the year)... I also have doubts concerning if he truly acted in "self defense" in regards to Euronymous' death. Interesting to watch some of the uploads on his channel about current events, history, etc. but things can get pretty heated on there, à la Rush Limbaugh. Some of what he says I find myself nodding in agreement, but then a minute later he's going on some crazy racist tirade... and he tolerates zero dissent. There is literally no room for healthy debate on his channel, and he attracts some very troubled teens/young adults who obviously have issues... Oh well, gotta separate the man from the art, right?
Barry BEE Benson probably he was equal to them the guy ask what he meant in his songs and Dylan asked if he has heard the songs and the guy said no lol
The fact that he objected to someone throwing glass in the street and tried to give whomever did it a hard time, is awesome for several possible reasons.
@Bennett Clark yeah a guy who being a young prick. Stop it, you state that like Dylan is some bad ass. He’s an overrated guy who’s biggest success was convincing people that he had a talent on loan from God.
"...but I don't take it seriously. If I wanna find out anything, I'm not gonna read Time Magazine... I mean cuz they've just got too much to lose by printing the truth, you know that." What a fucking legend
He gets into explaining why he dislikes the media from his own perspective and the journalist fires back with "do you care about what you sing?" Dylan then realizes his perception is absolutely correct and that he is getting nowhere with this person. He then finishes by being funny and self deprecating yet still correct all at the same time. Wise beyond his years at the time and still the same conversation could exist and be relevant today.
He asked, "Do you care about what you sing" because Dillon said he doesnt write songs for any reason and his songs don't have any message, and he has nothing to say about them .0:20
For years I thought he said "do you care about what you're saying". At least that would have been pertaining to what Dylan was saying at the time. what he DID ask had nothing to do with the conversation and was pretty rude.
@@hikesystem7721I think he said that just to fuck with them. Theessages in his song has always been clear, but when the media asks him what the songs mean they try to shift the meaning to fit their narrative.
he didn't hate them. he just engaged with them with genuine truth and passion . that,s why 40 years later we still talk about and listen to his interviews let aone his songs. oh and I agree with the rest of what you said.and don,t forget he was happy with life and having fun.
It seems to me that Dylan was always thinking on a level that far exceeds the importance of day to day life, the inconsequential realities of fame, and press conferences. His eyes are looking out farther on the horizon towards something greater. Just in these few words, he is penetrating the very fabric of society. This is the stuff that inspires my songwriting.
'All your ideas in your own head; somehow, wherever they are' was perhaps one of the smoothest insults ever delivered. And I'll be honest, I still don't know if he meant to deliberately hand him his head or not, but the face on that Time scirocco was very priceless, all the same
Yeah, everyone's too scared, and the things they are standing up for tend to be really harmful. If someone was snapping back like Bob did in this, after every sentence would be a "no offense" or "but your opinion matters too. We're all equal. " Some of us aren't equal, and that's just something we need to accept. Do we want to be equal to criminals? No way.
I don't think he said anything deliberately insulting to Bobby. Apparently he had a horrible morning and was tired of being verbally poked by people who could care less about anything that he was trying to do. This Time Magazine guy represented everything that Dylan despised in media. When he says "the truth is a plain picture, a tramp vomiting in the gutter while Rockafeller watches from the Ritz" or something along those lines, I get chills. He is the truth.
This interview is garbage. It goes in circles for ages, with Dylan mindlessly spewing whiny bullshit that lacks substance or purpose. I love his music/poetry, but this interview is a fucking joke.
The summary of this interview: Everything you know about me you don't really know. I'd try to explain it to you but you wouldn't understand anyway. **speed induced Teeth grinding** Do you even know the difference between Know and know??.....Man the 60s was really a time of revolution.
I think by this point Dylan had just about had it with the media applying these false labels and manipulating what he said in his interviews. If you watch the entire Don't Look Back documentary you see the media constantly asking him ridiculous and essentially meaningless questions of no substance and I think his frustration boiled over and unfortunately for this poor journalist he was at the recieving end of it
Valalizee 17 I live in his home town and northern Minnesotans have a very distinct accent that sounds partly Canadian. Some people have thicker accent than others.
Bob Dylan is one of if not close to the one of the most intelligent writers of all of our times.. If we even have times of our 'own' possession.. He doesn't need anyone to ask him what he's talking about in any fashion of exploitation. Pop music? This man is a fierce writer whom no one can come close to touching in terms of SOUL.
@@socrates1818Desolation Row, A Hard Rain's A- Gonna Fall, It's Alright, Ma, I'm Only Bleeding, The Times They are A- Changin', Mr. Tambourine Man (just to name a few)
Bob inhereted a high trust, polite and God fearing audience. By the time he was done they only feared their own lack of purpose in life and death itself. They knew they weren't already good enough and he loved to remind them they could be better.
I'm not sure what I was high on a year ago but, I'm sure it can be interpreted in many ways. For instance, the truth, twisted by people for their own gain, is often plain to see.
sleepcity Being up your own ass doesn’t necessarily contradict being profound. He’s saying that there are a lot of perspectives on truth that can all be equally true. The way I look at a plain picture can be awfully different from the way you look at it, but we can still carry parts of the truth in our words. That’s why the voice of the people should be heard more often; it’s the closest we can come to complete truth and democracy. Media doesn’t make money on reporting as objectively as they can, they make money on trying to bring up the most scandalous and problematic perspectives and acting as if they’re privileged to define it that way for everyone else. Dylan was unnecessarily harsh to certain individuals that weren’t likely to be bad people, but he was fed up by the media constantly defining his existence. All he ever heard was somebody telling him what he was, why he was what he was and whether or not he was what he was supposed to be. The most choice he ever had was choosing between the labels the media had already put on him. Media hates uncertainty, they hate not being able to figure someone out and outsmart them. He was simply never entitled to define himself, and he hated it. As would anyone. The press knew that Dylan had a class perspective and thus didn’t care to kiss the feet of elitists who got fat pockets out of slandering people and simplifying whatever was going on.
Unfortunately we are in an era when artists are expected to reveal EVERYTHING about their process, meanings, what they had for breakfast. I’d like to refer everyone that wants an explanation to this video. Thanks Bob.
Actually "Do you care about what you say?" was a pretty good response for this interviewer to come out with after being on the receiving end of Bob Dylan on a roll. Nice and direct. Got a rise out Bob too.
It was actually a reasonable question because toward the beginning of the clip didn't Dylan comment on his lyrics not meaning anything and he just writes them and they don't have any particular message. On one hand it is perfectly reasonable and Dylan reply is somewhat contradictory, sort of, but on the other hand the question is a smart-ass thing to ask and Dylan reply is understandable. Even though his lyrics have no particular message or meaning to him doesn't mean that he doesnt care about it or that there isn't something deeper to connect with than cooking a song or a line of lyrics down to a simple direct message or meaning
Dylan is saying that there is no message BEYOND THE SONG ITSELF! OF COURSE HE CARES ABOUT THE SONG, HIS INTENT IS THAT THE SONG SPEAKS FOR ITSELF, LIKE ANY TRUE ART...ART SHOULD NEVER DEMAND OR REQUIRE EXPLANATION!!
@@u.sonomabeach6528I never once for a second believed his music doesn't have a meaning. I think he just hates when people asked him what the message was specifically
There's a low stone wall between genius and insanity. At times, dear Bob would stand upon it and gaze off in both directions at once. Other times he would step off into the blurry side, but he usually wandered back with a story to lovelyly sing.
I wouldn't say he has an ego. Many times he has been very humble. I think when you are in the spotlight such as he was, you sort of have to protect yourself. I could be wrong but i think he would just lie to all the media because he didn't want them to know anything about him. He would just tell the media so many different stories about himself to where the public had no idea what his real story was for a long time.
While other people are commenting about Dylan thinking on another level of genius, I actually found his behavior to be typical of a young person with little of life's experiences to say something more thoughtful. I find him to be very much an adolescent here, making assumptions of what the interviewer thinks or will write in the magazine, while Dylan is criticizing the media for doing the same thing to him because it could be wrong. Well, those assumptions can go both ways, or not. Young guy here.
young and willfully raped by the industry. playing for "the master". I've always been a fan of his music but he always contradicts himself and doesn't sound to bright in these older interviews
You know I’ve said this before but I think as an artist contradiction is ok I mean I’ve heard people try to sound intelligent ect But there is something nice about just babbling in a way but the truth of what he is saying comes out
@@dudemandudebro938 He was stoned, drunk and on drugs that's why. Artist's work speaks of itself and he was definitely clear minded and sharp as a razor when writing his masterpieces.
the best Bob Dylan fans hear what he's saying & not look too much into it. I love him. this is good.....years, DECADE'S later. a whole generation later, I can't wait to see him live at Artpart in NY. 😘❤
Historical context is critical to understanding this interview. We have to remember that weekly magazines like Time and Newsweek consistently oversimplified, distorted, and even sensationalized emerging trends in literature and music in the 1950s and early 1960s. Time was particularly notorious in ridiculing the Beats and dumbing down their critique of American culture. Not surprisingly, Dylan was concerned about being misrepresented in a magazine with a large readership.
Anyone who complains about this interview fails to realize Bob Dylan's views on life. This is during the "counterculture" rising. Not many really stuck to their views on counterculture, Bob Dylan was a conformist. But he was not a conformist on the outside, he was a conformist to his own intuition making him a true individual in the sense of the word. He doesn't do things for anything other than his intuition. His intuition told him the media and politics would play him like a pawn, so he killed it while he could to prevent him from losing himself as an individual. People call him a sell out leaving folk, no he prevented himself from selling out his own intuition and himself as an individual. Just like this never ending tour, he does it because his intuition tells him touring and performing was his calling, its not him selling out concerts, its him buying into his individual self.
awesome comment. Doing my senior dissertation on Dylan and how he was not a leader of the counterculture because he wanted to, it was because it was what other people made him to be, but he just wanted to do what he wanted, which is my thesis, he was actually a rugged individualist, which is why he was so revered by the counterculture, who, by 1965-68, were actually disappearing, and selling out, and of course, would eventually become the coporate leaders they all despised. Some, obviously, not all.
Theo2016 yeah definitely, counterculture was filled with hypocrisy,people wearing clothes that didn't fit conformity, yet they bought into consumerism when they started mass producing clothes which appealed to the counterculture movement. That's a sweet senior dissertation man! I'm going to see Bob live in twos weeks with a date of mine, I think key with seeing him live. or so I hear is going in with no expectations, those who hate the concerts are hoping its a greatest hits concert to please the fans. Though part of me hopes he continues playing "All along the watchtower" something tells me I won't hear it which is disappointing to me me, and that's the only expectation I kinda had. Other than that, I expect to hear a blues style mix of songs.
Was actually gonna see him this weekend but, I am indeed a senior in college, and he is Bob Dylan. But from the stuff I have seen, his setlists etc., from his nnever ending tour, it seems like he occasionally opens with his older stuff, "tangled up in blue," "Like a rollin' stone," etc., and then mixes in modern times, things have changed, songs from those albums etc., and then ends with his "protest songs," or songs from the early Dylan. And yes, heard similar about seeing him live, but the man is still a legend.
He will play an old song, that seems to be nearly a guarantee though nothing in life is, this seems like it's likely, though he just switched his playlist up he use to play three old hits, but now only plays 1 and took out his ending set-list he has been playing all year (all of which contained all along the watchtower and blowing in the wind, my all time favorite Dylan songs along with Hurrican), I hope it was short term, because those 3 songs alone would be worth paying for a concert just for those songs alone.
Bob's way of saying "your linear society does not work, and can not grasp me.", staying aloof of the entrainment and the boxes the interviewer want's to cast upon him.
@@latrellsprewell653 Im originally from the mid west and lived in minneapolis for a short time and I dont recall hearing anyone talk like that but perhaps the further north could be different. I was actually going by what I read in Joanie Mitchell's memoir. IDK. Never seen Dylan live and cant tell by his music
Sammy Scotch yea its subtle but it’s more a rural accent. Minneapolis I never noticed either it’s a big city so all kinds of people are mixed together.
I feel bad for the reporter. Too bad Dylan was so busy telling him out of touch he was that he didn't see that he was making this guy feel uncomfortable and giving him a hard time just for doing his job.
Poor little fella who had his routine shaken for 10 minutes. It might even have gotten him thinking that night before bed, what a terrible day he must have had. Probably the worst thing that happened to him in his whole existence... Come on man, don't you feel like you're missing the point here?
Seriously, how could you feel bad for the reporter. He's square as hell man, just look at him and you can basically grasp Dylan's excitability over the questions. This guy is more or less a means for running a tape recorder. There to press record and to ask questions. There's nothing he could grasp here other than the meaning of the words coming out of Bobs mouth which analyzed sentence by sentence are indigestible to the reporter. He'll just vomit them back up word for word with no context of the real message. The complete disconnect that the media has from the lack of the experience
@@christopherbent2359 Being square doesn't mean he should be treated like garbage. Dylan was too arrogant here, behaving like a primadonna, but probably was under pressure at the time and acted out. Also since he doesn't think much of Time magazine and it's readers why is he so obsessed with their take on him and his concert? Of course there always be people who won't see things his way - they have their own reality. Every artist is misunderstood by a degree and there has been much worse cases than his and he knows that perfectly well. And what does he expect - he's in the entertainment business, he said it himself. The article in Time is also in the entertainment section so they can write whatever the hell they want if it's entertaining for their readers. Mr Jones definitely won that one with his question which hit the spot. Dylan is playing a character here - a pretentious and obnoxious one at that. I love the man, he's the greatest poet of our times but idolizing his persona is wrong, he is a genius but he's not infallible.
Stephen Dedalus So the entertainment section can be interchangeable with op-ed ? written by people without much idea of what they’re listening to or the involvement of what they listened to trying to create labels for those who do desperately need to label everything they see and all that breeds there of it. The fight here and the fight stems from the divide between a youth who cares to little to say they care about nothing. And another older generation that is still stuck in the discussion of why prose and novels suffer when written in the second or first person.
What? He's not trolling, if anything he's 'George Carlin-ing"... Dylan means & believes every word he's saying; he has no respect for large news corporations & takes issue with the ultimate motive behind the questions they're asking.
He "owned" him only because he (Dylan) talked rubbish irrational arrogant bullshit, and evaded the guys reasonable few interjections he was allowed to make. Dylan does not do himself any favours in this interview
@@priyac7054 who are you talking to lol we didn’t cast timothee.. they both look like dylan.. so does finn wolfhard and they’re all great but the director chose timothee
You see, many people are misunderstanding what Bob is saying here. He's just saying that not everything is worth writing a story. So the magazines manufacture something so they can print their magazine. After that, he knows he can just say whatever he wants, the more absurd the better, because anything can be twisted to the point it doesn't matter what you say. It's just funny to him how backwards the system works, yet people like it this way.
knowledge is useless without the ability to communicate what you know. I feel like he does do a great job at showing how he thinks. This guy in the interview is just trying to get his story.
Enigmatic. I think what is really happening here is that Dylan is confronted with someone who represents the ideals and establishment he has to feel willing to take on in song. He can't back down too much, or he'll lose that territory, so this person gets it. Fascinating viewing every time. I find Bob Dylan fearless.
How much you wanna bet this dudes editor knew damn well what a pistol Dylan was to interview and sent this poor SOB out with the full intention of having Dylan shred him 😂

I hope that everyone gets their own special memory of a music legend so they can pass on the experience to those who couldn’t be there.
@@vintagethings9187I got to see Frankie valli with my best friend about two years ago, what a great experience. Here’s a guy who’s in his 80s singing with horrible autotune, but it didn’t even matter because he’s a legend. I’ve always loved his music and it was such a privilege to get to see him in person, just a hundred feet or so from me
This was a lovely story, I wish I was around back then. Thank you for sharing 🤘
@@izzy9441 Happy to share.
I think Bob was simply saying he didn't like being critiqued because the press and his fans often read him wrong. So, he critiqued the magazine to make his point. But, I think maybe Bob's message came out cryptic and obtuse because he spoke in song-language. lol
Poetry is the word your looking for. He spoke in poetry. :)

FAKE NEWS BOB - FAKE NEWS
"Tramp vomiting into a sewer. Mr Rockeafella on a subway going to work" sounds like lyrics
Write the song and I will listen
Lunacorn.my.unicorn listen at 1:58
+Alex Madsen yeah, I was saying that if the first guy who commented here writes a song with those lyrics I will listen
It's natural for him lol just comes out on the spot
Someone give this man the Nobel Prize for Literature!
All the reporter wanted was a good story and I admire Bob for seeing through it and standing up for himself.
Bob Dylan one of the first real punk rockers.
The first
don't put him a box, he does not need it
After Dewey Cox, who invented it.
Absolutely right! He’s the first that I’m aware of to capture that punk “attitude”
With Jim Morrison
I saw this man play yesterday, it was my first time seeing him play live. I went with my little brother. It was one of the most mesmerizing things I have ever witnessed in my life. My brother was next to me freaking/spazzing out the entire time. Just the idea of being in the same room with this legend is maddening. Sitting down with this man and holding a conversation to me would be like talking to a man "WHO IS" The French Revelation. What he has done transcends who he is. He's a brilliant artist and a legend.
Why is Varg your profile pic

+gears5336 Yeah, I love Varg's creative output, but that man has committed career suicide/alienated so many fans of his music (understatement of the year)... I also have doubts concerning if he truly acted in "self defense" in regards to Euronymous' death. Interesting to watch some of the uploads on his channel about current events, history, etc. but things can get pretty heated on there, à la Rush Limbaugh. Some of what he says I find myself nodding in agreement, but then a minute later he's going on some crazy racist tirade... and he tolerates zero dissent. There is literally no room for healthy debate on his channel, and he attracts some very troubled teens/young adults who obviously have issues... Oh well, gotta separate the man from the art, right?
4:46 "you've got a lot of nerve asking me a question like that! Did you ask the _Beatles_ that?!" Lol
Maren Denison what did he ask 😶
Was he comparing himself to the Beatles?
Barry BEE Benson probably he was equal to them the guy ask what he meant in his songs and Dylan asked if he has heard the songs and the guy said no lol
Gaby H he asked what his songs meant and Dylan said do you listen to the songs and the guy said no and he flipped out
He asked "Do you care about what you sing?".
The fact that he objected to someone throwing glass in the street and tried to give whomever did it a hard time, is awesome for several possible reasons.
Hey, give Dylan a break. He's a young man here, in his early 20's, and already a superstar. It's probably not easy living as incredibly smart as him !
He’s calling it the way he sees it, so why can’t I?
Dylan was being a young little prick here.
@@chrisconley8583 he is but all he’s saying is true and we need that today. poor interviewer tho
I love the way he talked back then he was slick 😎
@Bennett Clark yeah a guy who being a young prick. Stop it, you state that like Dylan is some bad ass. He’s an overrated guy who’s biggest success was convincing people that he had a talent on loan from God.
More like, as incredibly assuming
"...but I don't take it seriously. If I wanna find out anything, I'm not gonna read Time Magazine... I mean cuz they've just got too much to lose by printing the truth, you know that." What a fucking legend
Love the line 'I'm not questioning you because I don't expect any answers from you.' Amazing shutdown!
He gets into explaining why he dislikes the media from his own perspective and the journalist fires back with "do you care about what you sing?" Dylan then realizes his perception is absolutely correct and that he is getting nowhere with this person. He then finishes by being funny and self deprecating yet still correct all at the same time. Wise beyond his years at the time and still the same conversation could exist and be relevant today.
Really? He sounds like he's spouting gobblediegook. And trying to make it sound profound.
He asked, "Do you care about what you sing" because Dillon said he doesnt write songs for any reason and his songs don't have any message, and he has nothing to say about them .0:20
For years I thought he said "do you care about what you're saying". At least that would have been pertaining to what Dylan was saying at the time. what he DID ask had nothing to do with the conversation and was pretty rude.
@@hikesystem7721I think he said that just to fuck with them. Theessages in his song has always been clear, but when the media asks him what the songs mean they try to shift the meaning to fit their narrative.
“Got too much to lose to print the truth..” legend!
they've got too much to loose by printing the truth.
man what a guy.
The fact that you can't distinguish between "loose" and "lose" says it all.
Don't be so cheeky, man.

Best interview ever. Not as many people have ever held the press as responsible for their action as much as Dylan did.
Axl Rose: Get In the Ring. lol
he didn't hate them. he just engaged with them with genuine truth and passion . that,s why 40 years later we still talk about and listen to his interviews let aone his songs. oh and I agree with the rest of what you said.and don,t forget he was happy with life and having fun.
bobs a philosopher that makes music
Not a good one.
@@tsenor probably better than you
I think his point is that he is not a philosopher. He just writes songs. They have no real meaning.
@@matt9293 Nah his songs have meaning he just had a unnormal high level of maturity so when he was badgered for answers he gave bs answers
@@elstonngunn4193 Facts. You've gotta respect how uncompromising he is
It seems to me that Dylan was always thinking on a level that far exceeds the importance of day to day life, the inconsequential realities of fame, and press conferences. His eyes are looking out farther on the horizon towards something greater. Just in these few words, he is penetrating the very fabric of society. This is the stuff that inspires my songwriting.
'All your ideas in your own head; somehow, wherever they are' was perhaps one of the smoothest insults ever delivered. And I'll be honest, I still don't know if he meant to deliberately hand him his head or not, but the face on that Time scirocco was very priceless, all the same
"Don't ask me nothin' about nothin' I just might tell you the truth."
Bob dylan doesnt like time magazine, I understand. Why should he be nice? hes just being real,
wish there were more young people like this in the world today
Yeah, everyone's too scared, and the things they are standing up for tend to be really harmful. If someone was snapping back like Bob did in this, after every sentence would be a "no offense" or "but your opinion matters too. We're all equal. " Some of us aren't equal, and that's just something we need to accept. Do we want to be equal to criminals? No way.
@@dreamyjae9320Have faith in the youth, media likes to make you think there aren’t some of us like this.

I encourage you to discover books.

@@7colliemac “Do you care about what you’re saying?”
this is when the beatles were a boy band
At least one of the Beatles might have actually answered the questions
If you've ever heard his version of Freight Train Blues, you'd know that Bob Dylan really can hold his breath three times as long if he wants to.
haahhahahah "wo hoo hoooo"
I don't think he said anything deliberately insulting to Bobby. Apparently he had a horrible morning and was tired of being verbally poked by people who could care less about anything that he was trying to do. This Time Magazine guy represented everything that Dylan despised in media. When he says "the truth is a plain picture, a tramp vomiting in the gutter while Rockafeller watches from the Ritz" or something along those lines, I get chills. He is the truth.
❤️❤️🙌🙌 preach Dylan!! He is one of my favorite people in the world!!!
He was really young too and I’m sure he was overwhelmed with the BS from the media. Gotta love him for being his own man.❤️
i dont know... he seemed pretty on top of the situation
This is one of the greatest interviews of all time I think
This interview is garbage. It goes in circles for ages, with Dylan mindlessly spewing whiny bullshit that lacks substance or purpose. I love his music/poetry, but this interview is a fucking joke.
that was the point i believe. but the "whipped" question was genius
Well it's not really an interview because the only one who is talking here is Dylan
There are no words to explain how much I love Bob Dylan.
The summary of this interview: Everything you know about me you don't really know. I'd try to explain it to you but you wouldn't understand anyway. **speed induced Teeth grinding** Do you even know the difference between Know and know??.....Man the 60s was really a time of revolution.
I could not help but smile throughout this video. Forever rock on Bobby D.
That is one of the many reasons why Bob Dylan will always be a legend. His voice doesn't describe his lyrical brillance.
I think by this point Dylan had just about had it with the media applying these false labels and manipulating what he said in his interviews. If you watch the entire Don't Look Back documentary you see the media constantly asking him ridiculous and essentially meaningless questions of no substance and I think his frustration boiled over and unfortunately for this poor journalist he was at the recieving end of it
His accent is so sexy.
Yes yes yes
An American accent
Valalizee 17 partly Canadian accent.
Valalizee 17 I live in his home town and northern Minnesotans have a very distinct accent that sounds partly Canadian. Some people have thicker accent than others.
he has an accent? huh?
Bob Dylan is one of if not close to the one of the most intelligent writers of all of our times.. If we even have times of our 'own' possession.. He doesn't need anyone to ask him what he's talking about in any fashion of exploitation. Pop music? This man is a fierce writer whom no one can come close to touching in terms of SOUL.
Name a couple of those songs please
@@socrates1818Desolation Row, A Hard Rain's A- Gonna Fall, It's Alright, Ma, I'm Only Bleeding, The Times They are A- Changin', Mr. Tambourine Man (just to name a few)
Bob inhereted a high trust, polite and God fearing audience. By the time he was done they only feared their own lack of purpose in life and death itself. They knew they weren't already good enough and he loved to remind them they could be better.
Fantastic voice in my opinion....strange? yes thats why its so fantastic, goes right into your soul.....its a voice that moves you
Man he just strikes you as a legend
i love the fact its 2012 and im watching a clip of bob dylan from the 60's

@@isthisfake. Agree!!
"The truth is just a plain picture."
Google "pseudoprofound bullshit"
What does that mean, practically, in terms of improving journalistic standards? I love Dylan's music but this is typical student wankery.
I'm not sure what I was high on a year ago but, I'm sure it can be interpreted in many ways. For instance, the truth, twisted by people for their own gain, is often plain to see.
sleepcity Being up your own ass doesn’t necessarily contradict being profound. He’s saying that there are a lot of perspectives on truth that can all be equally true. The way I look at a plain picture can be awfully different from the way you look at it, but we can still carry parts of the truth in our words. That’s why the voice of the people should be heard more often; it’s the closest we can come to complete truth and democracy. Media doesn’t make money on reporting as objectively as they can, they make money on trying to bring up the most scandalous and problematic perspectives and acting as if they’re privileged to define it that way for everyone else.
Dylan was unnecessarily harsh to certain individuals that weren’t likely to be bad people, but he was fed up by the media constantly defining his existence. All he ever heard was somebody telling him what he was, why he was what he was and whether or not he was what he was supposed to be. The most choice he ever had was choosing between the labels the media had already put on him. Media hates uncertainty, they hate not being able to figure someone out and outsmart them. He was simply never entitled to define himself, and he hated it. As would anyone. The press knew that Dylan had a class perspective and thus didn’t care to kiss the feet of elitists who got fat pockets out of slandering people and simplifying whatever was going on.
Man of my dreams.
Unfortunately we are in an era when artists are expected to reveal EVERYTHING about their process, meanings, what they had for breakfast. I’d like to refer everyone that wants an explanation to this video. Thanks Bob.
And when we don't...wait for it...
All Hell breaks loose 😂
Mr. Jones from 'Ballad of a thin Man' IMO
Actually "Do you care about what you say?" was a pretty good response for this interviewer to come out with after being on the receiving end of Bob Dylan on a roll. Nice and direct. Got a rise out Bob too.
No. It was “do you care about what you SING” ... but either way , I agree with you . Good question by interview and your point stands.
It was actually a reasonable question because toward the beginning of the clip didn't Dylan comment on his lyrics not meaning anything and he just writes them and they don't have any particular message. On one hand it is perfectly reasonable and Dylan reply is somewhat contradictory, sort of, but on the other hand the question is a smart-ass thing to ask and Dylan reply is understandable. Even though his lyrics have no particular message or meaning to him doesn't mean that he doesnt care about it or that there isn't something deeper to connect with than cooking a song or a line of lyrics down to a simple direct message or meaning
Dylan is saying that there is no message BEYOND THE SONG ITSELF! OF COURSE HE CARES ABOUT THE SONG, HIS INTENT IS THAT THE SONG SPEAKS FOR ITSELF, LIKE ANY TRUE ART...ART SHOULD NEVER DEMAND OR REQUIRE EXPLANATION!!
@@tenisalot Exactly, they're trying to box and politicize him and his work which should stand/speak for itself. Very shady.
@@u.sonomabeach6528I never once for a second believed his music doesn't have a meaning. I think he just hates when people asked him what the message was specifically
I kinda feel bad for the interviewer....Even though he is clueless.
Let's just be honest about the media...Dylan knew it all, still knows it all.
There's a low stone wall between genius and insanity. At times, dear Bob would stand upon it and gaze off in both directions at once. Other times he would step off into the blurry side, but he usually wandered back with a story to lovelyly sing.
Some of us grew up listening to Bob Dylan the cool ones still do 😎
I wouldn't say he has an ego. Many times he has been very humble. I think when you are in the spotlight such as he was, you sort of have to protect yourself. I could be wrong but i think he would just lie to all the media because he didn't want them to know anything about him. He would just tell the media so many different stories about himself to where the public had no idea what his real story was for a long time.
He’s defending something precious
While other people are commenting about Dylan thinking on another level of genius, I actually found his behavior to be typical of a young person with little of life's experiences to say something more thoughtful. I find him to be very much an adolescent here, making assumptions of what the interviewer thinks or will write in the magazine, while Dylan is criticizing the media for doing the same thing to him because it could be wrong. Well, those assumptions can go both ways, or not. Young guy here.
🙏🏾Namaste Bob, wonderful how you just kept on giving it to him / it ❤️
bob said he cant be offended by the interviewer then he promptly gets offended 15 seconds later.
young and willfully raped by the industry. playing for "the master". I've always been a fan of his music but he always contradicts himself and doesn't sound to bright in these older interviews
I know! I loved that part. Bob doesn't care.
You know I’ve said this before but I think as an artist contradiction is ok
I mean I’ve heard people try to sound intelligent ect
But there is something nice about just babbling in a way but the truth of what he is saying comes out
@@dudemandudebro938 He was stoned, drunk and on drugs that's why. Artist's work speaks of itself and he was definitely clear minded and sharp as a razor when writing his masterpieces.
Stephen Dedalus sharp clear minded? As in sober? Because bob Dylan has been on an off heroin since the early 60s, mostly on.
the best Bob Dylan fans hear what he's saying & not look too much into it. I love him. this is good.....years, DECADE'S later. a whole generation later, I can't wait to see him live at Artpart in NY. 😘❤
This is my favorite Bob Dylan interview!!! He is so right!
I love the sass young dylan had
I'am in love with his mind and personality.
Beautiful mind...❤️❤️❤️
"I'm not questioning you because I don't expect any answer from you". Brilliant, Dylan makes a dick of this reporter
Historical context is critical to understanding this interview. We have to remember that weekly magazines like Time and Newsweek consistently oversimplified, distorted, and even sensationalized emerging trends in literature and music in the 1950s and early 1960s. Time was particularly notorious in ridiculing the Beats and dumbing down their critique of American culture. Not surprisingly, Dylan was concerned about being misrepresented in a magazine with a large readership.
What a relief to hear a real man's voice after watching a TV news.
he treats them the way they deserved to be treated and that is real kindness
read his book if you wanna understand this man. he explains himself better in writing than he ever has in interviews, and for good reason
Anyone who complains about this interview fails to realize Bob Dylan's views on life. This is during the "counterculture" rising. Not many really stuck to their views on counterculture, Bob Dylan was a conformist. But he was not a conformist on the outside, he was a conformist to his own intuition making him a true individual in the sense of the word. He doesn't do things for anything other than his intuition. His intuition told him the media and politics would play him like a pawn, so he killed it while he could to prevent him from losing himself as an individual. People call him a sell out leaving folk, no he prevented himself from selling out his own intuition and himself as an individual. Just like this never ending tour, he does it because his intuition tells him touring and performing was his calling, its not him selling out concerts, its him buying into his individual self.
awesome comment. Doing my senior dissertation on Dylan and how he was not a leader of the counterculture because he wanted to, it was because it was what other people made him to be, but he just wanted to do what he wanted, which is my thesis, he was actually a rugged individualist, which is why he was so revered by the counterculture, who, by 1965-68, were actually disappearing, and selling out, and of course, would eventually become the coporate leaders they all despised. Some, obviously, not all.
Theo2016 yeah definitely, counterculture was filled with hypocrisy,people wearing clothes that didn't fit conformity, yet they bought into consumerism when they started mass producing clothes which appealed to the counterculture movement. That's a sweet senior dissertation man! I'm going to see Bob live in twos weeks with a date of mine, I think key with seeing him live. or so I hear is going in with no expectations, those who hate the concerts are hoping its a greatest hits concert to please the fans. Though part of me hopes he continues playing "All along the watchtower" something tells me I won't hear it which is disappointing to me me, and that's the only expectation I kinda had. Other than that, I expect to hear a blues style mix of songs.
Was actually gonna see him this weekend but, I am indeed a senior in college, and he is Bob Dylan. But from the stuff I have seen, his setlists etc., from his nnever ending tour, it seems like he occasionally opens with his older stuff, "tangled up in blue," "Like a rollin' stone," etc., and then mixes in modern times, things have changed, songs from those albums etc., and then ends with his "protest songs," or songs from the early Dylan. And yes, heard similar about seeing him live, but the man is still a legend.
He will play an old song, that seems to be nearly a guarantee though nothing in life is, this seems like it's likely, though he just switched his playlist up he use to play three old hits, but now only plays 1 and took out his ending set-list he has been playing all year (all of which contained all along the watchtower and blowing in the wind, my all time favorite Dylan songs along with Hurrican), I hope it was short term, because those 3 songs alone would be worth paying for a concert just for those songs alone.
*****
1st rate Idiot :(
Bob's way of saying "your linear society does not work, and can not grasp me.", staying aloof of the entrainment and the boxes the interviewer want's to cast upon him.
He was so ahead of his time in the way he viewed the media.
Love the Minnesota accent seeping through.
Ive read several of his fellow musicians say it was a phony "accent"
Sammy Scotch definitely not phony. He’s from Minnesota and grew up there. I’ve been near Hibbing in surrounding towns the people sound much like him
@@latrellsprewell653 Im originally from the mid west and lived in minneapolis for a short time and I dont recall hearing anyone talk like that but perhaps the further north could be different. I was actually going by what I read in Joanie Mitchell's memoir. IDK. Never seen Dylan live and cant tell by his music
Sammy Scotch yea its subtle but it’s more a rural accent. Minneapolis I never noticed either it’s a big city so all kinds of people are mixed together.
I found it to be affected and part of his image it became more black and rural in time. A urban drawl if you will.
I feel bad for the reporter. Too bad Dylan was so busy telling him out of touch he was that he didn't see that he was making this guy feel uncomfortable and giving him a hard time just for doing his job.
Poor little fella who had his routine shaken for 10 minutes. It might even have gotten him thinking that night before bed, what a terrible day he must have had. Probably the worst thing that happened to him in his whole existence... Come on man, don't you feel like you're missing the point here?
Seriously, how could you feel bad for the reporter. He's square as hell man, just look at him and you can basically grasp Dylan's excitability over the questions. This guy is more or less a means for running a tape recorder. There to press record and to ask questions. There's nothing he could grasp here other than the meaning of the words coming out of Bobs mouth which analyzed sentence by sentence are indigestible to the reporter. He'll just vomit them back up word for word with no context of the real message. The complete disconnect that the media has from the lack of the experience
@@christopherbent2359 Being square doesn't mean he should be treated like garbage. Dylan was too arrogant here, behaving like a primadonna, but probably was under pressure at the time and acted out.
Also since he doesn't think much of Time magazine and it's readers why is he so obsessed with their take on him and his concert? Of course there always be people who won't see things his way - they have their own reality. Every artist is misunderstood by a degree and there has been much worse cases than his and he knows that perfectly well. And what does he expect - he's in the entertainment business, he said it himself. The article in Time is also in the entertainment section so they can write whatever the hell they want if it's entertaining for their readers.
Mr Jones definitely won that one with his question which hit the spot. Dylan is playing a character here - a pretentious and obnoxious one at that. I love the man, he's the greatest poet of our times but idolizing his persona is wrong, he is a genius but he's not infallible.
Stephen Dedalus So the entertainment section can be interchangeable with op-ed ? written by people without much idea of what they’re listening to or the involvement of what they listened to trying to create labels for those who do desperately need to label everything they see and all that breeds there of it.
The fight here and the fight stems from the divide between a youth who cares to little to say they care about nothing. And another older generation that is still stuck in the discussion of why prose and novels suffer when written in the second or first person.
nachotaco1 You don’t have to feel sorry for squares......
"I'm not questioning you because I don't expect an answer from you."
"And if you do wanna get whipped, aren't you really being entertained?" Best line in this *#%!!
"I'm not questioning you because I don't except any answer from you" thats such a hard line, Bob is so good with words
He definitely watched 12 Angry Men before this interview
Dylan's just trolling. Not unlike a trolling stone.
That's very good. Bob would like it.
What? He's not trolling, if anything he's 'George Carlin-ing"...
Dylan means & believes every word he's saying; he has no respect for large news corporations & takes issue with the ultimate motive behind the questions they're asking.
Join The haha 😂😂😂 excellent! Cheers! 🎵🎵🎵
Trolling is so cool and authentic. Thank god it's not superficial and vacuous and nihilistic.
Say what you want but Dylan just owned the time magazine in this interview.

You see, many people are misunderstanding what Bob is saying here. He's just saying that not everything is worth writing a story. So the magazines manufacture something so they can print their magazine. After that, he knows he can just say whatever he wants, the more absurd the better, because anything can be twisted to the point it doesn't matter what you say. It's just funny to him how backwards the system works, yet people like it this way.
Okay the end part was actually hilarious and very self-aware
The constantly cutting back to the reporter in complete panic mode killed me 😂😂
The interviewer was playing checkers, Dylan was playing chess 🤣
😂😂 ole dude goes from bewildered to amused to questioning his professional choice.
I feel like Dylan is one of those guys who has an incredible IQ and people just don't understand how he is thinking
No. You're just a coward pushover.
Really? Funny, sounds to me like someone who's high and rambling.
you'd have to see the documentary this was pulled from to understand the context.
knowledge is useless without the ability to communicate what you know. I feel like he does do a great job at showing how he thinks. This guy in the interview is just trying to get his story.
I feel like he's an idiot and you are a pseud.
What he says at around 3:50 is so true, if only people had the same idea. The world really does revolve around the individual.
all that and not an y cussing. wow what a concept
Enigmatic. I think what is really happening here is that Dylan is confronted with someone who represents the ideals and establishment he has to feel willing to take on in song. He can't back down too much, or he'll lose that territory, so this person gets it.
Fascinating viewing every time. I find Bob Dylan fearless.
