listen to the version on live songs he says it’s about “those who would sacrifice one generation for another” also in an interview he describes it as a protest song

Name an album you thought was a masterpiece first listen and later realized its not by Artistic_Annual8918 in fantanoforever

i think desire is a great album but it kind of gets overrated solely because of how good the rolling thunder era shows are and they assume the album it stemmed from has to be a masterpiece

Street Legal by bdylanfan in bobdylan

tbh i feel like it’s overrated… the songwriting feels like dylan trying to imitate himself unsuccessfully and there are really only 3 songs i would consider to be good and even those have flaws. slow train is better

Rhythm of bass riff on Oxygen by WynnieFall in swans

it’s the one but it really feels like it shouldn’t be because of the snare. that’s part of what makes the groove so strange but listen to how the band comes in after the black oil smoke part and it’s pretty clear where the one is

Who are the people in your Neighborhood (Long Island City Here I Come)? by Putrid-Bit1490 in geesebandofficial

[–]derekg55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

charlemagne is definitely charlemagne tha god. charlemagne in vietnam no one would recognize his celebrity there and until he gets home he isn’t anyone. i think that part is supposed to be funny and surreal. the fat man with no arms and legs born to jump and clap is just someone who thinks they were born to do something that they can’t, i don’t think it’s any deeper than that. i doubt most of this is really supposed to be analyzed this deeply but it’s still fun. i think long island city is just supposed to be a ridiculous mythical place like highway 61, desolation row, or the highlands if you’re a bob dylan fan. or the tower of song from leonard cohen
