He apparently had the flu and was feeling rotten. Yet the speech is, imo, an encapsulation of what Bob Dylan is great at: he appears modest, a little awkward & you think he's going for a quip (great comedic timing), but then he follows it with a deep spiritual reflection. 10/10

After Mike Love went on a tear about the Stones and other contemporaries not working as hard as the Beach Boys, Bob Dylan comes out later in the evening and responds with just a few words that are funny, graceful, and profound. That’s why he’s the best
“Peace, love, and harmony is greatly important indeed, but so is forgiveness, and we gotta have that, too.”

Loder: “The abortion question is: Is it taking a life? Is it a woman’s decision?”
BOB DYLAN: “Well if the woman wants to take that upon herself, I figure that’s her business. I mean, who’s gonna take care of the baby that arrives - these people that are calling for no abortion?”

Bob Dylan really is the best singer! I realise the irony, but whoever disagrees is just wrong. He breathes life into any song, his phrasing is both surprising & just so on point. He makes everything sound cool & it never ever sounds contrived. I would listen to him sing anything

Bob Dylan has written a new book! In “The Philosophy of Modern Song”, “[Dylan] analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal,”

Bob Dylan's debut album came out 60 years ago today. Six decades in the biz and he's just released one of his best albums, streamed an art film, is out there playing concerts at 80 years old, AND about to publish a book – his determination and work ethic are such an inspiration!

New Morning is so underrated. It sounds great and is FUN. Aside from gorgeous songs like Sign on the Window and Time Passes Slowly, it's Dylan at his most playful and open to experimenting with different styles and genres. If Dogs Run Free and Three Angels are JAMS!!

BOB DYLAN about the making of Time Out of Mind: "This one phrase was going through my head: ‘Work while the day lasts, because the night of death cometh when no man can work.'"
Released 25 years ago, and my appreciation of the world conjured in these songs just keeps growing.

Out of all the shit he’s said and done in over 60 years, his love for social media might be the biggest curveball Bob Dylan has ever thrown
BOB DYLAN: "I think these [social media] sites bring happiness to a lot of people. Some people even discover love there. I think it's a wonderful thing. These sites can bring pleasure & joy to millions. It's like opening a window that's been shut forever, & letting the light in."

🧵Clinton Heylin’s racism, misogyny, homophobia, etc - a thread. Here he is justifying 14 year old Emmett Till’s murder because “he actually touched the white woman”. This is unfortunately not surprising in the context of his work: 1/
Reading Clinton Heylin's book on each of Dylan's songs and there is a part that I had to read over and over like five times to make sure I'm reading it right but holy shit he appears to be criticizing Bob Dylan for not saying that Emmet Till's murder was justified
