and the signs said, the words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
and tenement halls
and whispered in the sounds of silence

theme time radio hour with bob dylan
season 1 episode 17
"friends and neighbours"

this is what he said about country music

“now I love country music, but I say ‘what happened to it?’

"you hear a song like this and it’s obvious it’s about real people, and real emotions, and real problems, that’s all, that’s the country music we learned to love. now days they want to sweep all the problems under the rug and pretend they don’t exist.

"well guess what folks – they do exist! and if you try and sweep 'em under the rug, they’re just gonna pop up somewhere else. so we might as well all just face it and listen to the old style country music, the real country music. you know, about drinking and sleeping around. that’s my kinda country music, and I hope yours!"

unessa mulla oli tollaiset
aurinkolasit

halusin vaan kertoa teille että
kyllä kuulostaa simon & garfunkel ihan järjettömän hyvältä
pienen tauon jälkeen

ah, my friends from the prison, they ask unto me
"how good, how good does it feel to be free?"
and I answer them most mysteriously
"are birds free from the chains of the skyway?"

dylan on niinku yksilö vastaan muu luomakunta

and your pleasure know no limits
your voice is like a meadow larks
but your heart is like an ocean
mysterious and dark

she lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"i thought you'd never say hello," she said
"you look like the silent type."
then she opened up a book of poems
and handed it to me
written by an Italian poet
from the thirteenth century
and every one of them words rang true
and glowed like burnin' coal
pourin' off of every page
like it was written in my soul from me to you

tää kaipuuni menneeseen aikaan
mua piiskaa ja kasvoille lyö

oh, hear this Robert Zimmerman
I wrote a song for you
about a strange young man called Dylan
with a voice like sand and glue

t. Bowie
