Being yellow used to mean being cowardly. In the song it’s just an absurd play on words. When we think of the sun, we do see it as yellow. So yellow cowardly … chicken. It’s funny and absurd and doesn’t “mean” anything. It’s also absurdly poetic.

Me too, but hard to pick. My favorite is "The Hour that the Ship Comes in" "Then they'll raise their hands, sayin' we''ll meet all your demands,' but we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered. And like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide, and like Goliath they'll be conquered." May it be true--soon! Very close to this is the conclusion of Masters of War: "and I'll stand on your grave to be sure that you're dead," preceded earlier about the war profiteers, "Not even Jesus could forgive what you do."

​@mikemclean676 we had Bob Dylan in 1964, and now we're getting him again through his movie. We no longer have a shitty war going on, but we have a pretty much equally disturbing 2020s as we've had 60 years ago in the 1960s. Time is not a flat circle, it is a sphere, with a line that can't help but make an imperfect path, but tries to get as close as it can to being on point. 60 years later, nothing has really changed, and I'm glad that for Dylan's part, the relevance of his music hasn't either!

I was just over 15 in early 1966 when I saw Dylan and The Hawks, (minus Levon Helm, he had stayed in the US after all the booing) here in Perth Western Australia. First half acoustic second electric. Listening to music about to take a new direction. Maybe seen him about 7 times since then. Once with Tom Petty. Gave my Dylan LP collection to a Dylan music writer in Queensland a few years ago. Great days. I told my friend who went with me, that Dylan was a poet who set prose to music, much of it the blues.

This is what we meant by psychedelic. The sudden expanding of your mind and thought process. Highway 61 and Bringing It Back Home were like rockets caroming through the minds of an entire generation. Not all hits were direct but when it did go off in your head it was transformational. I was thrown out of a record store listening booth when I got hit with "you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows" . I don't know what I yelled but that was the moment the lights came on. Every cut on both albums made you think, observe, imply, embrace, yada. By verse, by phrase by single word. It made your mind sparkle and your eyes pop. And it wasn't Magic. It was created by another human to his satisfaction and benefited the rest of us who happened to be there and needed exactly what he was sharing.

James Williamson from Iggy and the Stooges got half his playing style from this song. Everyone talks about Clapton, but it's Bloomfield that guitar players first learned to to kick ass to.

The highway 61 cover picture was taken in june of 1965 . He was sitting on the steps in front of his apartment in Manhattan in new your city. The dude behind him holding the camera is bob neiarth dylans friend. I love that picture too. Blond on blond front cover is cool too.

It's a commentary on the red scare of the 1960s, in that political leaders are trying to sound the alarms over the approach of communism ('endorse the reincarnation of Paul Revere's horse" e.g. warn the public) but the populace isn't buying into it ("but the town has no need to be nervous").
