Talking about something that happened in your mid 30's and saying "I wasn't even born yet" is a pretty inspiring mindset
he means before he accepted jesus the lord as his saviour, born again
@@silverlight2004dbor, he means he was so much older than, he’s younger than that now
@@nolanwolfe maybe it means that to someone who thinks his 'reborn christian period' was a 'passing phase'. But to someone who sees that he underwent a real enlightenment in his soul, what happened is that his life since as a poet and musician, as a creative artist, has been used to serve his soul enlightenment. Just because he stopped making records in the musical style of his so called 'christian trilogy' of the late seventies with the preachy lyrics, doesn't mean that he abandoned his rebirth. The only way to understand his art since then is in the light of that rebirth and where it has led his creativity. Something which the music journalists, biographers and many of the fans fail to see...
@@silverlight2004db damn. I’m just Dylan fan, but you seem to be so much more. Very impressive. It’s cool to have people in the world who really take the time to think in depth on things like that.
@@nolanwolfe well its the way i see it anyways, its what makes sense to me, thanks a lot for taking the time to read and reply thoughtfully, i hope it gives you some food for thought also...
"It happened so long ago I wasn't even born." He's younger than that now.
Good one!
Back pages.....nice
YESSSSSSSSS
@Twilight 8368 ..... ears rolling high and mighty traps!
Nice!
you can see that young 22 year old ambitious man in those eyes - still full of youth. So beautiful!
Hahahahahahaha!! what is wrong with you? He looks like an old jewish man with a wrinkled up face!! Am I right?
@@shanehunter4274 Im talking about his eyes. You can see the youth in his eyes. I didn't say anything about his face. Obviously he is old looking. Are you slow witted?
@@alexandertraill3443
Are you stupid? His eyes are full of pain and saddness. Why else do you think he steals such painful music and lyrics from other artists? Nothing in his eyes says ambitious. You're fucking stupid...Am I right?
It's okay! The rest of us get it...
Don't waste your time.
@@steveb9325
Thank you Steve B. I kind of thought somebody like you would understand. I'll stop wasting my time. Thank you for backing me.
Who else is smiling at this?
🌞🌊🐠🌻🐬
it's hilarious, laughing my head off.
Me! It's like he just realised that he could answer the same way (a non answer) but do so with humour! Hahaha ohh myy
@@smoothbeak yes. It is like that. 🌼
Me, Bob Dylan always makes me laugh, wether it's one of his songs or a video clip
It’s funny that even when he’s frustrated he still says these incredibly poetic things.
Poetic???? Huh?
@Ryanjakehenry He isnt frustrated, he is yanking your chain. The entire doc. was a go at people taking things so seriously. Bob is having a laugh here.
He doesn’t take himself quite so seriously…
I find that Dylan often talks about becoming a new person, being born again in the sense of reinventing one's self:
"I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now",
"he not busy being born is busy dying"
"It happened so long ago I wasn't even born."
I used to care but things have changed.
We died and were reborn and then mysteriously saved
Well Neil Young talked about Bob and his muse and Bob has various Muses so the mood and music changes depending on that too. The muse gets underrated but is very important to a poet or songwriter they are like a higher being that influences the artist. Some attract muses more than others it's a talent in itself.
Edited -2 years ago (edited)
First time I've ever seen him come out of character in his entire career.
Edited -2 years ago (edited)
as he said he is only Bob Dylan when he has to be
Thing is he was in character even during this doc
I wish we have more of that
I bet that as he gets older, he will be more Robert Zimmerman and less Dylan...
I think he ‘broke character’ during the Rome press conference in 2001 - a highly entertaining interview.
Bob doesn’t take this stuff half as seriously as his hardcore fans.😆
That's presumptive.
Daffodil Yellow Jello
No, it’s true, lol. Bob has literally said that people who obsess over him should get a life. Look it up.
@@prodevus ok.
That's one reason why we can still take it seriously.
Taking it seriously would ruin the whole deal
The most human I've ever seen him be. Thanks Pig.
@Fredrick Noble let me assure you that my heart is in the right place. Hopefully you know that I'm saying is that I haven't seen him like this open, real or freewheeling in a interview, mind the terrible pun. My first born daughter is named Dylan and I'm outside right now playing lay down your weary tune on the old martin righ now.
Without a wig.
Absolutely agreed!! maybe also because when you get close to the end, you get more real and leave your defenses..
Some call it age - Transparency -
Being slowly convinced and having the trust that God already knows so why pretend invade every pore of beiing and thought process
You basically can't find another clip of him acting this much of a human being lol
I love this! Bob often seems annoyed in interviews, here he's open and comical
It's the predictable banality of the kind of questions journalists ask that he finds annoying. (I think ). They are always asking him questions like "What is this or that song about? ".
I believe that most of latter video-recorded interviews (including the one for No Direction Home) were conducted by his own manager Jeff Rosen and he seems pleased with it, that's why these interviews are relaxed, funny, insightful, informative and just plain interesting for fans
He's goofing on the reporter as usual
@@larryrubin5150 It’s not a reporter
yes me too. He is less serious and smiles more which is wonderful to see.
This shows his humour as well. The man is everyman at the same time as being like no other. I have tired of the many friends who don't GET Dylan. However, I am so thankful for those who do.
This is the most real the "documentary" ever got. Such a wonderfully unique movie.
Are we sure. I assumed this was all for the narrative and cameras as well
@Chango Chilemba it's from the Rolling Thunder Revue Documentary that's on Netflix
I think Scorsese left this in deliberately. By Dylan claiming not remember a thing about the tour, they were free to make up a bunch of shit.
It's crazy to go from watching clips of him in the 60's to this. Still looking good after all this time.
Very astonishing footage! Very rare to see Dylan so relaxed and cool! Thanks for this gift!
I like they way he had a go at saying something meaningful before he realised he can't remember anything because it was so long ago.
in the movie he says " If you remember the Rolling Thunder Review you weren`t there " funniest thing I`ve ever heard him say
Dear God ~ thank you for Bob Dylan
Yes
I'm thanking his mum and dad and John Hammond. Not a myth
@@nickkasman8946 Oh, for FS give it a rest.
Would have loved to see this in person! Happy Birthday Bob Dylan
Thanks SP
He must have had the Mona Lisa Blues, you can tell by the way he smiles.
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all...

//You think I'm over the hill
You think I'm past my prime
Let me see what you got
We can have a whopping good time.//
“It happened so long ago, I wasn’t even born.”
God, I love Dylan so much. 😂
"Take me disappearing through the smoke-rings of my mind...down the foggy ruins of time..."
Brilliant.
Life Stages : 1) Get born 2) Discover Bob - the rest is just detail.
... the most important detail being Get born again , as Bob did!
It’s so cool to see he is same authentic human, personality so unique, smart and witty, oh and the talent, nice to share the planet w/u
Amazing his music transcends time! A great poet song writer legend.
"Take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind, down the foggy ruins of time"
right on cap’n
Together Through Life...
Happy 79 Birthday, my dear sweet friend
You are the Heart of the World ❤🎵🎙🎹🎸😎❤❤
Oh Bob, WE ALL know what it was back then, WE remember everything about it; it was a welcome amazing affirmation of music we grew up with and put into sharp focus ever expanding with heroes and heroines we loved and still love. Nothing before or since has ever happened like that. WE thank you and everyone connected for doing it. It was so cool!
The music comes to a rolling stop.. As he says "bullshit" haha!
Happy Birthday, Mr. Dylan!
My deepest appreciation and thanks for your nice comment on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via hangouts using my personal email that will be indicated below. Also endeavor to add your name to the text so I can know you are the one texting.

An inspiration as a composer, promoting civil rights when it was dangerous, and read from many sources with wisdom between the lines. Never pretended to be anything accept a song and dance man.
How wonderfully self-deprecating and eloquent - always ahead of the times, pioneering .. he always overtakes the time and therefore always remains young. we should continue to support him and donate .. for the future of all of us thank you pic
Al Kooper had the best stories about being with Dylan. When he toured with him during his “Born Again” phase, he was walking around backstage wearing a rainbow Afro wig, Bob thought it was funny but as it got closer and closer to showtime he still had it on and Bob was more and more worried Al would go onstage with it. Just as they walked up the stairs to the stage, Al tossed it off, much to Bob’s relief
that’s exactly how i feel!
can‘t remember a thing
about my youth
wasn’t even born then😎
it’s all imagined 🎥
Ah! but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now...
we live in a simulated universe and all our memories could easily be simulated, too. for all we know we and this whole universe could have started with Dylan's Roaring Thunder tour..
I was so young when I was born. My eyes could not yet see.
He's a musical and lyrical magician,a true genial,everyman's poet.Who's creative art will forever go down in history.Yes happy BirTHDay Bobby,we Love you.
I Love his dry sense of humor, he makes me laugh. Because he just is. Take him or leave him. Its his mid-western charm.
LOL Starring right in his Blue Eyes too! Love it Swingin' and I like your suggestions of celebration ideas in your description too! LOL
"It's a show about nothing." Sound familiar?
Thought about that the moment I heard it... lol
Larry and Jerry would know
Kramer on tambourine.
@lionstanding 😂😂😂 my thoughts exactly
This, this is why I love Bob Dylan. He's always been himself, there was no act, he would/will do things for a good cause (like we are the world) but he's not gonna fake being happy and all buddy-buddy with people he doesn't view as an actual friend(s).
I hope I get to see him before he passes. Don't even have to talk to him, I'd just like to see him. That would be a dream come true.
Do what you can to catch one of the shows this year in the States. Still tickets left. I just saw him in Tucson on March 4, 2022. Amazing performance. First, and I imagine only, time I’ll get to see him. Bucket List item. Do it now, or it’ll be too late. He’s about to turn 81.
DREAMS DO COME TRUE ... DYLAN on tour after the birthday party .. hope its a good one for the ole man ... SEATTLE < PORTLAND< SPOKANE< KENNEWICK< LA
his entire life is an act.
I am afraid that you miss one important aspect of the Bob's performance for the public...it is ALL an act. Even his taciturn behaviour is an act...it's his shtick.
He’s so natural. Thank you for this wonderful conversation with Bob🌟🧡
What an iconoclast. Dylan. Changed popular music. Keeps on and on. My heart already breaks for the day he moves on from us.
@@kathymayo7786 Why think about it? Work on yourself.
Ya, he probably changed popular music more than anyone. Extended songs from 2-3 minutes format. First to address politics. Ignored the traditional
'love song'. First to abandon rhyming lyrics etc; BUT you also have to give credit to Columbia Records and John Hammond for having faith in him and giving him the freedom to do what he wanted. That took a lot of nerve in the cut-throat record business as well
Bob Dylan is great. . I was lucky to see Bob Dylan and other famous musician guys on his 30th Anniversary Concert at Madison Square Garden in New York. Wow , !!!it was great concert. Cheers !.
Sounds like bob: honest and blunt! He will go down as the songwriter of his generation.😉🇨🇦💜
I saw the Rolling Thunder Review. Wow what a great show.
I’m actually glad that the person who wrote all of those great songs that are at a greater level than any other songwriter will ever reach is bizarrely weird. It just wouldn’t make sense for someone like that to be normal.
🍃😜🍃Love ya Bobby!!
I’m calling my tiny house.
“The Little Rolling Thunder.”
I love it when you come out to see us all in Australia. It’s been 3 times for me and you just get better and better. Thanks for all the wonderful memories..
🍃☮️🍃
Dedicated fans end up knowing more about an artist than the artist himself!
Glad we remember it all, these are the best moments of our lives.
Bob thanks for all of it. Played a part in my life.
Bob Dylan you're a national treasure! always treasure you in my heart!
I was just watching the Rolling Thunder Revue right as you posted this! Fabulous clip! Happy Birthday, Dylan 😊
it was 1964, newport joe sia and I went up to photograph the show and all. Bob, joan her sister and her husband were staying at the Viking hotel, we met and talked to them for 2 or 3 days.. Bob was fun..
seen him for years.. ...but ..this honestly is a little sad...we all come to this time in our lives...
I thank the Gods.. that he has been around for so long.. a gift to a generation...he gave me to typed out songs
to to me years ago.....treasures..as well as he is...God keep him with us longer... happy birthday Bob!
So great. In the end, Bob might just be a “shot and a beer” guy. With genius.
Thank you Swingin', I love this ... Bob at his best! 😎
Nice to see Bobby laughing, lovely.
I believe Bob when he said he doesn’t remember a thing. That was a strange era!!
As Joni Mitchell said, the tour that was fueled by cocaine! Perhaps that pancake makeup on his face wasn't makeup after all!
You were born Bob, and you were on fire! When I get the time machine, Ill go directly there.
He;l knows wht it;s "bout" it;s All bout BOB but he;s too humble to say It was ALL ABOUT ME lol
‘I wasn’t even born you know ..’ Dylan says..
Yet Dylan already had written all his Beauty’s so 40 yrs ago and sang them until now!
But.. He sure then wás Busy being Born at least...💥He lets the interviewer do the questions ..He knows how to👌❤️🌹🌞
I've never seen him like this. He's really dropped the act.
What the fuck?
@@SuperDirtyPickle seriously
@@SuperDirtyPickle its the meth
@Fredrick Noble dude you should think about seeing someone
Fredrick Noble Its cool, bro. Peace. Stay safe.
I saw it, on my birthday in Corpus Christi, opening act was the Byrds Man what a show!!!
I love how he says "I don't remember a thing about Rolling Thunder" he is so humble. His fans expect to see some piece of thrill or excitement within himself that they see. He doesn't see it, it comes so natural to him it rolls out of him. He has written a complete song in 25 minutes and he will say it's magic he has no idea how he does it it-he just does.
Cool, the Bob no one ever sees. Just a good old guy who smiles and isn't the poet laureate of a generation. This is unique.
Loved seeing Bob smiling and joking. See, her does have a sense of humor!!
Thanks much! I'll watch the whole doc this week... happy birthday Bob!
I totally LOVE this! Thank you so much for posting this video! I've been having a rough moment for a while now, and seeing this has made me feel very, very happy! Dang, he is looking VERY good!!!!
The line about it being "something that happened forty years ago" is so important. We spend so much time mythologising the careers of artists, and the iconic albums and projects they put out, that quite often forget they're people, and in Bob's case, 80-year-old people. My grandad isn't 80 yet (73) and he can't properly remember things from when he was 60, let alone when he was 40. Add in that Bob's travelled the world at least a dozen times, played thousands of shows, recorded more than 2 dozen albums, and also raised (at least) 5 children, and it becomes increasingly silly to ask him about something he did when his oldest (now in his 50s) was an infant 🤷😂😂
Oh Bob, never take your self away.
And never ever change.
God bless you big man
I've never seen Bob be so real and unguarded.
Uncle Bob still looking and sounding good
I absolutely love this , there’s so many people that put this mystery around something that’s already been he makes it real and puts it into perspective that it’s all just a little bit confusing and finished.
Filling an emotional space doesn’t mean you need to understand it .
That’s the beauty of music it grabs you and let’s you fill in the blanks.
Everyone’s words have different meanings to different people why should he have to justify everything he writes just enjoy it .

Happy birthday to you. Wish you All the best .
Great song and dance man.. Much love from Scotland 🏴🏴🏴#loveabdy
I love this vídeo... and I am ever here to see Bob in two times....
I love it..Love that Honesty.hey, we all get old..I know I am...I;m honest...But Love is eternal and full of youth
Mulţumesc Bob pentru cîntecele tale, pe care le ascult si azi cu plädiere. La mulți Ani! RomING da Germania
Damn i sure know how feels. I don't remember what i did yesterday!
In the Netherlands where I live, comedians call this, loosely translated: 'having a memory like a prince' ;-)
Great sense of humour! How privilidged we've been to have Bob in our life time
I love you Bob always my favorite person happy birthday!!!
I saw the RTR way back when in Toronto. Gordon Lightfoot played flawlessly. Joni Mitchell was too high to play. Bob was just as you saw him. They were all just so admirable. There is an obvious reason why he doesn't remember. The same reason that I can't fill in more details.
Martin Donald I saw RTR in Niagara Falls, which I assume was the night before you did!
I remember everything from then and before; who, when, how and why because it was so amazing. Smoking a joint didn't blur my memory at all. This was the ultimate antidote to disco and transcended all BS.
I thought Joni didn’t really do drugs?
@@ciaranppp She was pretty fried. I had a journalist friend backstage.
"It happened so long ago, I wasn't even born"
_he can't remember when he was born, and he forgot when he died_
Bob's beyond meaningless questions from the past he's on a journey deeper than an interview can reveal it is clear as we've always known he's not a big fan of interviews and it's clear that he probably shouldn't do them as he sings in one of his new songs' I contain multitudes' "iam first among equals and second-to-none"
I took a bus down from Toronto to catch the Revue in Niagara Falls New York. It was spectacular. He played some otherworldly harmonica solos that I'd never heard before and have never heard since. It was my first visit to the US, and I was amazed to see an armed guard in a liquor store. Suffice to say I was happy to jump on the bus after and get my skinny Canadian ass back home. The difference between the sister cities was staggering.
You're a good man, Pig. We do appreciate all this.
I have seen this clip nearly hundred times now I guess.Think it's so great, feeling like if it's a bit of the real man there. And what abt this Rolling Thunder Revue, sure he rememberes, perhaps that's a bit too private though. Someone thought it was a stupid idea,this Thunder Revue, think that depends on how one looks at the past. I, for my self,only remember good times,how to be young,full of hopes,and trying to embrace life -as it is. Hope that Dylan remember his past with pride and joy, not many has managed to make others to feel so much Love as he with his music and lyrics.❤️
What a legend this man is i have so much respect for him and i love his songs
What a wonderful thing to see. So old, so happy. I aspire....
Happy 79th Birthday Bob Dylan. You rock!
So nice to see Bob relaxed and funny.
I want to like this video thousand times over
How nice to see the great man actually smile - unprotected for just a moment - a rarity ..
A wonderful lyricist......and could play guitar and harmonica, at the same time, just incredible.
Man, that was a good show. The best. Dylan more alive than ever and than anyone else. Sometimes you see someone great or someone beautiful; or someone horrible in the greatest, most beautiful or most horrible moment in their lives. This was Dylan at his peak. My face, in awe, was front row center the night that Allen Ginsburg observed, "The audience has a face."
hey Bob....you got a tighter connection to our hearts.
I was there. On my birthday in Corpus Christi....it opened with the Byrds and Eight Miles High...an incredible night. I am now 70.
How Good is Mr Bob Dylan talking like this Aways in for a laugh or Joke
So Nice 🌸🌸🧡🧡🧡🧡🌸🌸
classic - the rest of the global population of followers remembers the tour...except the one who created it. Happy Birthday Bob!
Who knew ?! Bob Dylan can smile 😀.
One of my fav parts love this film i learnt so much ta awesome upload ☕✨🌻🌻🌻 😂😂
The Ever Amazing Bob Dylan! Thanks Bob!
Always good to hear from Bob and celebrate his birthday and his whole life!
