this song is what I think of when I recall those wonderfully happy, new, turbulent, world-changing days of the 60s (my teenage formative years)...I now look back from the perspective of a 60-ish "establishment" professional dude guy, and I miss those days so much...! Byrds and Dylan forever !!!!
To anyone who got to be a teenager or in their early 20's during this time of AMAZING music we call the mid to late 1960's I am jealous! you are so flipping lucky!! :)
The 60s were not all about hippies, flowers, and love..it was a turbulent time..young people felt ignored and outraged by society.Young boys were sent to their deaths by the evil called "the draft"..many people were killed/beaten just for standing in what they believed in (civil rights movement; war resistance)..it was actually a time of a lot of hate. Luckily ceaseless optimists like Bob Dylan knew how to epitomize the movements into such beautiful lyrics that take the listener away. Love them.
@tosomeothertown Maybe this connected,I mean the youth back then have to fight for its beliefs more and in every possible way,through movies,songs...and now what kind of films and music do we have?There is still no absolute freedom and there will never in civilisation.That 's why I wish I was born 60 years earlier – even with all the violence and fear back then.
I prefer Dylans original version but i still like this one:)
