The Times They Are A-Changin' (Bob Dylan Tribute) - Bruce Springsteen - 1997 Kennedy Center Honors 

There's a nice story about this in Springsteen's autobiography. After the show Dylan thanked him for performing and told Springsteen to let him know if there was ever anything he could do for him. All Springsteen could say was, "It's already been done."

Without Dylan there would be no Springsteen, Without Springsteen there would be no light in my world. Thank you both for the gifts of your poetry & music.

Don't think I've ever seen Dylan look so emotional. This got to him.

Passing the torch. As a huge Springsteen fan, I am so proud that a man so in important to United States history, Bob Dylan, was early Springsteen fan. He saw himself in him, but also recognized that The Boss had his own things to say. That's passing the torch.

Its very touching when Dylan endearingly raises his eyebrows at :40, seems like he felt understood by Bruce

the thing is, he sung this with heart and that's it.

One of the great piece of lyric writing of all time.

Thank the universe for Dylan and Springsteen!

This was the first time I heard Springsteen's rendition-he sings I think he interprets it the way Dylan wanted-really something special

Dylan thanked Bruce after this show and told him if he could do something for him. the Boss answered: Are you kidding? You have already done that

Two greatest songwriters ever as far as I am concerned.

Well, we learned more from a three minute record than we ever learned in school.

One of the best covers in the history of covers.

4 years ago. 5 years ago..30 years ago.God Bless Bruce Springsteen..And of course God Bless Bob

I grew up listening to Bob Dylan as it was my dads best music to listen to along with Bruce Springsteen and Lenard cohen, every time I listen to bobs music it always brings a tear to my eye after loosing my dad, I love you dad thank you for bringing this music into my life,,

Springsteen is my bob dylan… still love em both❤

Bob Dylan through his music and poetry has lived a life of substance. We should all be so fortunate to live by his creed.

The merging of lyrics with classy nobel prize class and singers classy grammy award. What can be said other than amazing?

Boom. Mikedrop. Seacrest out. This is the way Bruce roll. Semper Fi, brother❤️❤️❤️❤️

These are the covers we needed in 2022.

I really enjoyed this. It shows the great ability of music to inspire. I believe Springsteen and Dylan greatly appreciate and respect each other.

Bruce did great!

Today's much needed Psalmist 💛 honoring those that have come before 🙌 Sacred and so heartfelt sound

There is no other word: Only this: Wonderful!!!

Hear listening to Bruce on Howard. Saving to watch later!!

Bruce brings us Bob.

What can i say. i'll say this is the Beauty of Art. and the struggle that still exist in America to this Day!

Amazing performance from Bruce thanks Bob brilliant stuff

This must have been the hardest thing to do for Bruce. Singing a hymn to your ovn idol..

Americans need this today, a boost in morals, acceptance is a hard pill to swallow, to the young please give a listen...

If Dylan wasn't accepting the social and political impact of his songs, he never would have accepted this honor. At the end he gives Bruce some hard applause, not just a pitter-patter golf clap. Dylan started out his career being labeled the "new Woody Guthrie" so he knew what it was like spending your career in comparison to somebody else. I think by the 90s he and Bruce had come to a mutual understanding and Dylan took it as real respect.

Through Bob Dylan's lyrics I get peace in my life, and Bruce' music strengten this feeling

Legend sings for a legend !!! Woooww

Two of the greatest ever. My personal #1 and #1a...

Everybody and their children KNOW exactly what Bob Dylan means in all of his lyrics. It's no wonder, the man stays out of the light. ONLY Mr. Dylan knows what he means about anything at anytime, including Mr. Springsteen.

He’s called the boss cause he’s the boss

I always came back to this performance…two of my fav artists in the same video

Y'all friggin nuts wanting to criticize either Bob or Bruce, or both. Art travels across generations.

Love the harmonica!!

Perfect words .. incrível tribute! Legend Singer for Legend . Great moment 🎤🎼🎸👏👏

bob is bob, bruce is bruce, i am more than thankful i found the music of both oh so many years ago

Simply amazing and awesome 👏 thanks 🙏 wow Bruuuuuuuuve nailed that one ☝️

Awesome tribute

Just wow - just wow

Wow! Thank you, Boss.

⭐⭐ Priceless ⭐⭐

Bob Dylan e espetacular.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

So true even today

So beautiful song

Crazy good.

Just what I was looking for now, preparing a new year's greeting, with good luck for needed changes.

And in 2022, they are drastically changin again, Bruce! 🎶🎸🎶

Maestro de sus silencios,Dueño de sus palabras NUNCA ESCLAVO DE EL MEDIO

Bruce at his best.

So much love it.❤️❣️

These snippets are awesome. You've got enough material now though that you can start offering complete shows on DVD. Would be happy to buy episodes!

This was 1997 and we still haven't got it right yet. I wonder if we will ever get it right? Maybe the younger people will, let's hope so.

Dylan's look in Bruce's introduction is priceless, like "No, dude. Don't try and pose what you think my songs are about on a large audience"

Bobs eyes and facial expression shot out love directly to Bruce . Such a cool moment in history! I'm pretty sure Bruce was singing that song to the Clintons though.🤣💙💚

Bruce, you know, you're always traying to pup in songs singing this way.

Thanks Bob

thanks bob

From Bruce to Bob...... "CLASH OF TITANS"

rock on bruce & bob

for ever Bruce

Respect

Besser kann man diesen Bob Dylan nicht huldigen

I did see Billy Bragg do a mighty powerful version of this great song...

🌹👏🏽🌹👏🏽🌹👏🏽🌹

Fantástico ❤

I'M COMING.....

My America.

I like listening to Bruce's work. He made James Taylor's Millworker into something way more than anybody else did, and never tried to sound like anybody but himself. It must be something to do with Bob Dylan's status, but it seems to me that Bruce, as good as he is, puts way more effort into sounding like Bob Dylan than Bob ever tried to. I don't think I have heard Bob sing the same song the same way as he ever did before.

Nobody sings Dylan like Dylan and Springsteen like Springsteen! Aggreing?

He is another one. FLUSH.

Wow

Nobody Sings Dylan like Dylan,like Dylan and Springsteen.I agre

Come gather 'round people Wherever you roam And admit that the waters Around you have grown And accept it that soon You'll be drenched to the bone. If your time to you Is worth savin' Then you better start swimmin' Or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin'. Come writers and critics Who prophesize with your pen And keep your eyes wide The chance won't come again And don't speak too soon For the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who That it's namin'. For the loser now Will be later to win For the times they are a-changin'. Come senators, congressmen Please heed the call Don't stand in the doorway Don't block up the hall For he that gets hurt Will be he who has stalled There's a battle outside ragin'. It'll soon shake your windows And rattle your walls For the times they are a-changin'. Come mothers and fathers Throughout the land And don't criticize What you can't understand Your sons and your daughters Are beyond your command Your old road is Rapidly agin'. Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand For the times they are a-changin'. The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The order is Rapidly fadin'. And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'.

My personal favorite version might be Simon and Garfunkel's. It is on Wednesday Morning 3AM.

cool cover

It seems to take a lot to move Dylan ! Bruce did that there

Lots of you that hate this are just taking it too seriously. None of you ever sang along to Dylan while trying to sound like him? Sure you did. I think that is why they call it entertainment. It's not as if a musical tribute should be on par with ones relationship with God, and such to be considered sacred. It's just life my friends, and enjoy the moments it allows us. I liked his version here.

Yeeeaaaahhhh

3:56 19 years earlier and you can still tell why she could never be presedent. The difference in personalaties in huge.

🕊🌻🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🌻🕊GOD BLESS ALGERIA 🌻🕊🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🌻🕊

Ha...never knew the Boss played Dylan live for Dylan listening.

0:37 Dylan's eyebrows says it all: "No it isnt."

Aprendi gostar do bob por causa minha mae

amen

Bruce can do no wrong, but God he came close here.

Springsteen is a legend but this performance was brutal... good god

mmmm esta es una buena cancion,,le gusta mucho a mi padre

Springsteen is one of the few Dylan imitators to actually succeed. Neil Young is another.

I really like springsteen version 👍😊

Nobody sings Dylan like....Dylan.

Reading the comments on here remind me of another Dylan line "Everybody's shouting which side are you on?"

I am on to Thunder Road...
