Kevin Wilmott Yes she's a real person and you look at a lot of the ones that are out there nowadays struggling to be famous but they don't have her talent and even the ones with the talent don't act like real people
Elle en parle bien Patti ...on sent qu,elle a une admiration ..une tendresse pour cet artiste exceptionnel ..mr Dylan vous transmettez le bonheur. Prenez soin de vous s,il vous plait.
At some point everyone with a brain in their head and a heart at the core discovers Patti Smith. The inevitability of that should give us all hope. She reminds us that we have within us that which makes us live up to our capacities to love and to live meaningfully. I love her.
I love Patti Smith and always have. Paraphrasing: “From Mozart to Rimbaud to the Beat poets to Dylan to punk-there is a through line.” To the person who criticized her pronunciation of Mozart: Patti’s from south Jersey and that’s how people there talk. When you’ve won the National Book Award, had your first album (HORSES) listed in the top 100 rock albums of all time by Rolling Stone magazine and been named to be one of the top 100 most influential persons to EVER live in NYC, then you can comment on how she says Mozart.
Loved Patti since i bought the album "Horses" way back and I saw her in concert in Manchester in the late 70s, she was bloody great! Patti was a very influential artist!
great bobspeak right at the end !.........."you got too much to lose by printing the truth" !!...........good insight from a young man in his mid twenties.................and still 100% true today.. No wonder the Master was given the Nobel 1
yeah , Bob has than energy about him . it was love at first listen .. also the first live performance I seen in my life was Bob . I became obsessed basically ... I feel the way for Bob possibly the whole way Patti does ... and maybe even the way Bob did/does for woody .
I was hooked when a friend handed me “Freewheelin’” weeks after my dad died. I was 14. But true, I always thought Bob to be MY guy...and all the similar rest...probably why I love YOU, Patti!
That was so beautifully said. Also I love Don't Look Back seen it at least 6 times and will be watching again soon because I miss placed it when I was moving but I found it and will probably watch it next weekend ps loved every comment you said about Bob
His words "Twenty years of schooling and the put you on the day shift!" totally changed my life by clarifying own feelings at the age of 21 when he was just 2 years older than me: but I was trapped in the British Army risking my life for all the Monarchy not the people of Great Britain, whose enemy is the establishment and all the Queens businessmen. And they still are... but from that time on I offered them much less tax than the richest spiv or the most corrupt drug pushing criminal on both sides of capitalism's corrupt regime. No wonder he dropped out and pretended to have had a motorcycle accident!
LOL you and about a million other women, patti! How about his dreamy blue eyes? Do they remind you of infinity? and beyond? Have you seen him lately singing Frank Sinatra tunes? His voice never sounded so sweet, his love never sounded so strong. I especially liked it when he sang those syrupy love songs. None one does it better in my ears. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"what's best Dylan line of all time" would generate a lot of nominees ... if I were to look for it I couldn't get it under a dozen & pickin gone would be a lost cause ... and of course the concept of "best" in that context is a hollow gust of "idiot wind". but if I were hunting such... "I'm glad I'm not me" ...would definitely be in the mix
sorry I didn't proofread before posting -- "pickin gone" should be "picking one" I see comments hereabouts that be edited, & places where people have clearly replied to some person's comment that is no longer there by time I discover that conversation. What I don't see is an option anywhwere for deleting or editing my comments. anyone in the mood to educate me on that subject???
you can't edit comments if you're using RU-vid on a phone. If you log in using the desktop version then the 3 little dots off to the side next to your own comment allow you to fix it. You can switch over to "desktop version" by clicking on the options up above in the video screen.
Dylan's songs are sometimes difficult to sing--all those words--all those lines all those verses plus unexpected difficult notes to hit--I but it was a hard,it was a hard song to fall on--she fell like a hard rain on Nobel night--it was too much for the aging Patti...though when she was young she had the power to do it right.
"badass guy" ......Yet it was that unsustainable speedfreak attitude Bob totally rejected by '67 when you bought into it Pat... Tell us what you thought about "John Wesley Harding" or some of the dross that came after that ? We know that just like the rest of us you were just as obsessed by Keith Richards' elegantly wasted drug stance......now _there_ was a "badass' guy.......?
It's impossible TODAY to get it. He was the FIRST to say those things. He was just being himself. Today it's all "gloss" and "spin" he was just saying thngs that came to him. He made it work. Today it all looks WEIRD to "act" like that. Whatever context it was, then, it was real at the time. Being the first isn't always the best place to begin the game.
No, not like Trump in the least. Complete opposites, in fact, in terms of background, values, looks, mannerisms, careers, contributions to art and the public dialogue, sheer command of the English language, and lasting worth as human beings. As different as PT Barnum and Rambeau. That help clarify?
Patti has just gone down in my estimation. How can she condone the cruel malicious propensities Bob Dylan displays? It is easily to mask bad behaviour by a new word which lessens and softens the actual truth. Calling someone "badass" when he is acting like a "F*&%$ng Arse@*#e' diminishes the cruelty and condones it. Is it ok to denigrate women even further now, by using a new hip word? In the film Bob Dylan's treatment of Joan Baez was not "badass" it was malicious and cruel....Use the right descriptive words not ones that gloss over and condone bad behaviour.
From everything I read, even Joan Baez's own words, she seemed to have been obsessed and clingy, still doesn't make his treatment right though. However Patsy Smith and women, don't think she ever liked other women, there was a documentary about how they started, Blondie played in the same club in NYC and Patsy told her there is not enough room for "both"... Countless things about her that just make me think that maybe she isn't a very nice person to be around?
