If I Wasn't Bob Dylan, I'd Probably

I Like Spiritual Songs. They Struck Me As Truthful And Serious. They Brought Me Down To Earth And They Lifted Me Up All In The Same Moment.

I Was So Much Older Then; I'm Younger Than That Now. From The Back Pages

The Confessional Singer-songwriter Movement Of The 1970s Was In Full Swing, And Bob Dylan's Emotional Album [ Blood On The Tracks] Resonated With The Times. There Would Be Other Hits, But Never The Same Alchemy Of Emotion And Time.

You Get Older. You Start Having Hopes For Other People Rather Than Yourself.

I Like The Fans, But I Don't Feel An Obligation That I Have To Be An Example To Them, Like Say Maybe A Baseball Player Would, Or A Football Player Or Maybe Some Other Type Of Musicians. I Don't Feel I Have To Really Set An Example That Somebody Else Has To Live Up To.
