This song and video inspired us with ours.

Dylan himself said he is a poet first, musician second. He has also said he lives like a poet and would die like a poet.

exactly! :D

Many thanks. I think I get it.1: Dylan's music and lyrics don't exist for their own sake, but are very much a product of his times and the issues of the period2: He is not only a musician, but a poet, and his music should be appreciated in this lightCorrect, no?And I very much agree with you, justmusic247. What you find today on MTV is not very creative. This video may have been unusual, but I would prefer it any day to some of thoughtless drivel being produced currently.

"Dylan - Beatles - Stones" this is the Holy trinity of popular music - Thou shall not play them against themselfs

Really folks - how can you dog Jagger with a straight face? Besides, this is all about Dylan - nearly 50 years of making it all possible for every clown, pretender, and truly talented soul who has something to say. Mercy, I thank the Universe for this man....Dylan made EXPRESSION possible for us all in this electronic age. He is no accident.

I didn't say anything about records/albums sales being the most important thing in music! did I?for example: Elvis Presley! yes, he's the most successful musician in the history, but why? he didn't even write his material! mostly he was a copy-cat or at least a cover-machine. sales don't really prove so much, so yes I gotta admit, but for me The Beatles were the greatest so I'm a Beatles-guy and sorry if you still don't agree with that :) I don't care actually, I respect your opinion, though

ok ok, but the thing i don't understand is why do record sales say who's better. Surely it comes down to personal preference? Just because the beatles have sold the most doesn't mean they're better, to me at least.. Cliff Ridchard has sold more than bob along with Barbra Strisand and about 131 others. Who's better, the stones or the beatles? Who gets to decide that? I'm a stones guy so to me they're better...Dylan's a bottomless pit greatness and he will always be at the top of my music tree..
