[@scootermom1791]

I totally had to laugh at what you wrote at the end: "Sorry for my language. I'm French." The reason this made me laugh is because in the USA, we used to say, "Please excuse my French," after accidentally (or even intentionally) saying a bad word. People don't really use that idiom much anymore. Your language is wonderful, though. I liked hearing about your story. You're lucky most of your dreams came true.

A lovely thought. I was in my second year of high school in 1964 and I can tell you that hearing about Bob Dylan was a slow process. An album or two that nobody played on radio and concerts here and there. News travelled slowly and filtered up through the underground. Remember that this was the same time that the Beatles were becoming known outside of England. It was magical because there wasn’t a lot going on media wise. Like A Rolling Stone in 1965 was the big explosion. Thank you for sharing your thought. It kind of woke up a lot of nostalgia on an old man.

Wow, thank you. I was a senior in high school in 64...funny thing, all of the these rock and roll singers are still very popular. I sing their songs, hear their songs in the stores, malls, etc. I say...what a great addiction. I was born at the right period of time! Mjensen

Hello, Oh my goodness gracious. I am so happy for your life and how its turned out. Good for you. I do have to disagree with you about those being simpler times. Think back a little. During those times I will remind you of a few stressful things that we went through. John F Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcom X and the Black Panthers were assassinated. Along with Love ins, Woodstock, The Gong Show, Laugh-In and absolutely wonderful things like that, there were the Stones concert at Altamont, Charles Manson, Kent State and the Watt's Riots, where more than a few people died. Remember Nixon's Impeachment or Nixon's and Agnew's resignations? Watergate? Men could not enter Disneyland with hair that touched the ear, until taken to court. Where the United States Supreme Court told Disney that a person's appearance is protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution. This decision banned dress codes in the U.S. and changed the way that we dress forever. I did like that one, being a Hippie and all. Anyway, I really do not think that life was so simple back in those times. To me, being a teenager back in the 60's, as I remember it with my 77 year old addled brain, was a lot more complicated. I mean, I was a boy and there were girls out there. And Vietnam! It's simpler for me now. I'm to old for war and I've been married to a wonderful lady who still lets me through the door after 30 years. I just try to go with the flow. That's how I make my life simpler. That and not using Social Media. Peace

"And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind Down the foggy ruins of time Far past the frozen leaves The haunted, frightened trees Out to the windy beach Far from the twisted reach Of crazy sorrow Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free Silhouetted by the sea Circled by the circus sands With all memory and fate Driven deep beneath the waves Let me forget about today Until tomorrow" One of the greatest verses ever written.

+Aaron Smith If you listen to the song you can tell it's about Bob Dylan's experience with drugs, the Tambourine Man is his drug dealer, Bob wants him to play a song for him (hit him with drugs) because he's not sleepy (not high on drugs) and his evenings empire returning into sand is his high wearing off. There is no proof of what this song is actually about, but anyone who has listened to this song deeply will know what what i said is true. You basically said that you are your baby boy's drug dealer, thus why i called your comment stupid.

bob I don't totally disagree with you that it might be about drugs. Who knows ? In fact, I wouldn't be surprised. The 60s was the golden age of cannabis and psychedelic use. They are mind altering drugs. However, wether it's about drugs or not, the imagery and poetry with deep unconscious and conscious spiritual undertones is mesmerizing. It goes deep. The song is really open to interpretation and that's the beauty and magic of it. I'd gladly take a "hit" and listen to this song. I'm sure I'd fly very high within my own mind ;)

I was 18 when I first started listening to his music, and my high school yearbook quote that year was a re-wording of a part of Bob's classic "The Times They Are A-Changin'", to match the turbulent times that I grew up going to high school during. I can safely say that Bob's marvelous mind and timeless lyricism have been a great inspiration to me, and I'm glad he's been with us on the earth for this long, and hopefully for many more years to come.

--- LYRICS --- Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. I'm not sleepy, and there is no place I'm going to. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you. Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand, vanished from my hand, left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleeping. My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet, and the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. I'm not sleepy, and there is no place I'm going to. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship. My senses have been stripped. My hands can't feel to grip. My toes too numb to step. Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering. I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade into my own parade. Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you. *[Harmonica solo]* And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind, down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, the haunted frightened trees, out to the windy beach, far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate, driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. I'm not sleepy, and there is no place I'm going to. Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you.

The video may be in black and white but the lyrics are in full technicolor!! An incredible song, lyrics which in my opinion will never be surpassed.

My Favorite Verse ,.Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves Let me forget about today until tomorrow.

[@libraryquiet]

+Rolling Stony That verse has my favorite line, " Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free. " It conjures up an image in my mind. And for some reason, it brings a tear to my eyes..., I don't know why.

[@TheRollingStony]

libraryquiet I remember singing it in the middle of the night hitch hiking across Florida by myself and the sky was so full of stars.

[@kevinchang415]

+Rolling Stony That's beautiful. At that moment you're really dancing freely beneath the diamond sky.

Starting at age 14, the year of this performance, my best friend and I would play Bob Dylan's albums over and over until we memorized every single song, and learn to play them on our guitars. And that includes later on his Blonde on Blonde double album. He's one of two or three people in my entire life that left such an indelible mark on my consciousness.

This live version is better than the original album version of the song - proves what an incredible talent Bob Dylan is.

I always imagined Dylan to be old and wise, i guess because this song was around 2 decades before i was born, but he was just a kid singing this. Truly remarkable how we all experience life differently.

“Let me forget about today until tomorrow.” No one else writes lyrics (poetry) like Dylan.

Dylan's writing skills are unsurpassed. But cannot say that for presenting and arranging a song.. Everyone who covered his songs made much bigger hits

My father played this for me when he drove me back from karate practice, directing my attention to subtle drug references throughout. I think I was about 14 or 15. It was the early 90's, and there was a 60's revival. Until then, my father hadn't felt comfortable sharing his generation's music with me. But he always expressed admiration for Mr. Dylan, one of his personal heroes. So to me, this song always symbolized bonding with my father. I wish everyone could have that kind of relationship with their parents, if only for a little while...

Dylan is surely among the greatest lyricists in modern times.

[@DualityofManLimited]

He's above Jim Morrison but below Nikki Sixx.

[@Legacysong2012]

Okay, the only reason you can say he was a better lyricist than Morrison is because Morrison's songs were actually poems, and only after the Doors was founded did they start making music for his poems, since they were so amazing. However, if you want to look at the songs themselves, Dylan and Morrison would be equal, but if one was better than the other, Morrison would win. Not to mention, no one was better than these two, and the next closest person was Robert Hunt.

[@PrincessPineywoods]

I was a sophomore in a Wisconsin high school when this song hit the air waves. I loved it instantly. Love everything about it! I loved his strumming, his raspy voice, his lyrics. I actually saw him in concert the first time when I was living in Florida, 8 years later at the Hollywood Sportatorium. I was 22. I'll always love his music. I'm a 72-year-old grandmother now but get nostalgic for those long-ago days.

[@BeatlesCentricUniverse]

Nostalgia? Dylan's music is the long hard fight against nostalgia (Rob Sheffield the writer said this).

[@smithaustin624]

His voice isn't raspy, it's nasilly.
