@WithBACON Here's to you shutting the fuck up. Whatever you may have thought about his views on the Iraq war, he was one of the greatest essayists and rhetoricians of the 20th century, and spitting upon his grave just makes you look like a prick. Admit it, you're a fucktard christian who was a little butthurt by his arguments.
@Sauron012 Hitchens was a cock who loved to here himself talk. He had some deep seeded issues that reflected in his work. He wasn't really an atheist either, he was madly pro Zionist and pro Israeli because he felt he owed that position to his jewish mother. If thats not cultist religionism for you - I don't know what is. As for you, calling people fucktard christians yet write about Hitchens as if his jesus and you worship him like a god - see the IRONY. THINK!. Your the one sounding butthurt.
@wabfunk Sorry to butt in here, but until people kill and start wars over his words, he is not being worshiped like a god. The people you speak of ADMIRE him, but they do not go to shrines once a week and attempt to commune with him.
@wabfunk FlaminDuck has already made my point. Just because you may have disagreed with him, it doesn't mean you have the right to insult him from beyond the grave. And I do not in any way worship him, I simply admire the man and the legacy he left. Worship is when you kneel to the idols that represent the person or deity, worship is when you threaten people with death for insulting him, worship is when you cover immoral beliefs with the name of 'religion', which is above all challenging.
@Sauron012 Sorry, but he was still a massive cock who loved to hear the sound of his own voice and whether you choose to except it or not, even those close to him admit that he wasn't a true atheist at heart. Lets face it, a lot of people worshipped him because of his exuberant rhetoric and thick aristocratic english accent. In fact, if you listen clearly to what he says you'll find that he wasn't really clear on anything at all, except of course, his love for Israel and hate for muslims.
I agree with you entirely, and I still think war is reprehensible. It is for the reason that you speak that I think all war must end. I believe Mr. Dylan is speaking of all creators of war from all nations regardless of their intentions, war will only beget war, never love.
I gotta say most of this song is just from his point of view I mean really to be honest they're just doing what needed to be done to fulfill the future to unfold what will unfold. If you're so blind to not understand that then that is how it is meant to be. What happens, happens, I have to say those that don't think other than what they are told to think don't listen. I don't laugh at you but I definitely won't degrade you and pity you. I believe that all is planned and most you all say you do.
@Sege93 Damn, it's almost as if the advent of world peace and the release of this album weren't inextricably linked. Apologies for this dickish comment though.
... And all the money that you made , wont ever buy back you soul ....... I wish some politicians now a days would listen , and act with the wisdom that todays enormous challenges put infront f us . This song mentions that , not only in relation to wars , and things related to that ....... Emmanuel Kant - 18th century philosopher mentioned , ' Man must learn to control his mind . And not let his mind control him ...
none of you get it do we can only answere for our actions wars will not be stopped with putting guns down because we would just move on to knives we have to change our thought process and stop hating the person yes hate the act but send love to the person we have to change the world from a negitive energy to a love energy and then only then shall we save our species LOVE NOT HATE.
I totally sang this on the way to work this morning...and it was AWESOME! Loved it as a teen (in the late 90's) and I love it now. Protesting what is WRONG never gets old.
@kitoskitoni Obviously you care if you took the time to express your thoughts via telling me not to express mine. Would you like another attempt dumb ass?
@Ariel62073 if there were no armies hitler would have no power, because he wouldnt have had an army either.
what is a general without an army? nothing but a lone man, tyrannous generals wouldnt exactly be generals without armies, they wouldnt even be a threat.
@TheEnviroFriend Who, if not generals with armies, will kill the Hitlers and their armies? Good and bad certainly exist in the world. If killing the evil can't happen because killing is wrong, is it right to let the evil enslave and kill the good? What societal checks and balances prevent the Eisenhowers from becoming the tyrants they fought/fight to topple?
@Ariel62073 Did it ever cross your mind that someone somewhere profits also for every ounce of iron and every single bullet the "evil" guys use? The people who you see as "evil" see themselves as "good" and justify their doings just like you do. Or did you really think Hitler was waging a war and thinking "F*** yea I'm evil" as if he was Skeletor? There are no such things as absolute good or evil.
@Ariel62073 This song was one of many that enlivened those that actually did stop a war.
Musicians often have a love-hate relationship with the way that they derive income. First you have to bear your soul, then you have to place a money value on what is priceless to you. weird.
Those who believe in absolutes are not paying attention, have little empathy, and are capable of heinous acts. They cheer the end of the world and call it human nature. Willing to let us all die to prove a point.
@Joecredit3 It's also interesting that Bob Dylan wasn't singing in German, yet there was a Volkswagen bus in the background of his album cover picture.
If the bus wasn't meant to be symbolic, then that is an amazing chance of history. Hitler shot himself; the peoples' car turned into a hippie bus.
@Nordis To be honest as learned as I am in certain areas of thought I have no doubt he thought he was evil from the point of view of the majority. However he knew what he was doing and did it for the better of the human race however I doubt he ever truly planned to succeed and most likely planned everything...him being a pagan and all...I just understand what pagans think and how they think. They're extremely intelligent, the true pagans at least.
@Nordis Your logic is flawed. Just because Hitler didn't consider himself evil, that doesn't make what he did not evil. Intentions do not justify actions, I'm sorry to say. Hitler, and many other oppressive dictators who brought death upon countless innocents, are absolutely evil to their cores.
@nachokingp Most German's at the time supported Hitler and thought he had brought Germany back to the glory days of the past. They didn't think that he was evil. The Nazi's did horrible things, but so have others throughout history. Good people can be evil if they lose and evil people seen as good if they win. History is blurred. Hitler, for example, saw himself as a savior of his people, and his people saw him as a saviour.
@missdaisywindfarm That doesn't mean he wasn't evil. Hatred is evil. Murder is evil. Just because his people saw him as good, that doesn't change his actions. I'm not following your logic.
@nachokingp America has brought death upon countess innocents....so has Britain and most of what we know today as the good guys. The logic isn't flawed, you just don't like it.
@RampantMinotaur I'm sorry, when did I say that what I said only applied when it wasn't America doing it? I said that hatred and murder are evil, no matter who is doing it. I'm pretty sure when Dylan wrote this song, he was referring to America at the time as well. The logic I was referring to was and still is flawed.
Not quite what Bobby was writing about, but this song always makes me think of the Japanese fishing companies that kill Whales, Sharks, and Dolphins, and defend it by saying it's for research while simultaneously selling their catch.
I just want you to know I can see through your mask. And I hope that you die.
@LaymanScholar you're not the only person. you're among a vast majority of retarded people on this planet who can't see great art when it's staring them in the fucking face. this song is passionate and political as well as being personal enough to connect on that level - the mark of a great protest song i think. the lyrics are so filled with anger and pain it feels like he's screaming them...sends shivers down my spine.
@gbrioche Oh please lol, the lyrics are crap, infantile and embarrassing just like Dylan was. The guy rode on the lack of real talent because of the low standards of the era when it came to music. You are just another wannabe hippie that only likes this shit because you think it gives you street cred like most of Dylan fans. The guy was a flake, his music was weak, his fans were sad people with no sense of shit. "sends shivers down my spine." lmmfao that was pathetic even to read.
@LaymanScholar 'sad people with no sense of shit'? all the greatests songwriters, neil young, tom waits etc all cite dylan as a colossal influence. It is you who are the sad bastard who has shit taste in music, the guy who thinks he knows but actually has it so terribly wrong. I'm also not a fucking hippie. And if music has never sent shivers down your spine, I pity you and your intellectually and emotionally challenged brain. Something's going on but you don't know what it is, do you, knobhead?
@gbrioche You're way too embarrassing to converse with any further. You really are just a wannabe hippie sad because you were born in the "Take That" era lol, you just keep believing that you "get" the music and how you are such a deep person, and I'll just keep laughing at you. Dylan's lyrics are for morons who get confused with words over two syllables. Now go and bother your daddy for another 45 from his sad little wannabe hippie collection, there's a good chap.
@LaymanScholar I pity you son, I really do. You could be trolling, but your mongheadedness (four syllables for you there) seems too genuine to be put-on so I'm guessing you're actually just an idiot. I don't have vinyl and as I said, I'm not a hippie - seems to me you don't really even understand what a hippie is, you just use it as a random insult for people who like music more than 10 years old. I have no idea what kind of music you're into, and to be honest don't want to know. I'm done.
@gbrioche I didn't call you a hippie, I called you a wannabe hippie. And yes you have no idea what kind of music I am "into" as I didn't spread my inert little feelings of how cosmically wonderful Dylan's lyrics are. The guy was severely overrated, lyrical genius my arse.
@LaymanScholar Oh anonymous pseudo-intellectual music snob, you're missing the point, and ain't never gonna find it because you're looking in the wrong places. Your antagonistic, misplaced insults are wasted on me like my time's been wasted on you. You also have the most ridiculously pretentious user name I have ever come across. Good day sir.
@gbrioche "antagonistic, misplaced insults " Oh quit your whining, you're a fake, your first comment to me was "you're among a vast majority of retarded people on this planet who can't see great art when it's staring them in the fucking face" So be a hypocritical little twat on your own time. Pretentious user name? Do you even read what you write? The two words "layman" and "scholar" are contradictory, dumb ass!
@LaymanScholar Yeah, the sixties were known for the total lack of any notable musicians. That's not just an imaginary thing that you made up. Absolutely no musical innovations occurred in the sixties.
This song is timeless. It belongs in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. Try to imagine the microwave hallway scene in MGS4 with this song playing. It would make a great game even better
how can one comment, of course it is beautiful, the language of my lovely youth. When we were young, he was the guy at the cheap bars that most did not understand, but now it is fashional to say you knew him oh so long ago.---- hey bob, still love ya
One of the best things that Resistance 3 has done is introduce me to this truly magnificent song. As a 16 year old I hate being sterotyped as a person who only likes offensive, misogynistic rap or Kesha and such "popular" shite.
nd btw thx 4 posting this man...jst lik evryone else lookin 4 this song...it took 4ever 2 find haha. this is probably my all time favorite song by my favorite artist. i mean john lennon, floyd etc r up there 2 but dylan jst kicks evryones fuckin ass 8D
this is the rebel spirit that is dead in america sadly we are so ditached from reality that songs like this will only haunt our final days.but i still hope we learn at the last minute and vear away from oblivion and enter utopia.
@ricciutioriginal hey buddy im 19 nd keepin dylan alive...nd i still hav a mind of my own ;}...theres still a few of us out there that havent fallen for the rot that society has become ;}...jst so u no haha. btw were past the point of no return...2 much destruction nd hatred hav been brewing 4 much 2 long...dnt get me wrong i wish it wasnt lik that but its the sad, undeniable truth...better 2 know than pretend its not happening. well now that my rant is over...fuck i love this song hehe
if D. camron & N. clegg would stop sucking eachother's dicks for long enougth to listen to this, then they MIGHT be able to find the sense to stop this pointless war that we cannot win.
@bewildebeest There will always be criminals in high places. Metallica said the same thing Dylan said with their "Disposable Heroes" and nothing changed. Criminal kids listen to their governments, get their blood boiling thinking of shooting "the enemy." These kids exist in all cultures the world wide. They volunteer, and the survivors procreate, passing on the poisoned mind.
There are good people to. Aim at the ignorant; try to teach them awareness.
Google “Are Evangelical Christians Warmongers” by Pastor Chuck Baldwin about Israel and America’s undeclared wars and how the government uses fear to manipulate Americans.
@warprod I dont usually answer but how can you refrain when such a bright wit is presented for destruction...I really dont do YouTube much but i feel I need to support this person (and the humour)
I can t say anything about this masterpiece.It s only 40 years ahead of it s time,I had a cassette of this for years that a friend of mine made me,wore it out.THIS is simply one of the GREATEST songs EVER written.PERIOD!
@eatthelies138 I feel like it had a lot with what was going on at the time this was a number of years after vietnam it applies to what's going on right now and I think it has to do with the Military Industrial Complex.

Your antagonistic, misplaced insults are wasted on me like my time's been wasted on you. You also have the most ridiculously pretentious user name I have ever come across. Good day sir.

@gbrioche "antagonistic, misplaced insults " Oh quit your whining, you're a fake, your first comment to me was "you're among a vast majority of retarded people on this planet who can't see great art when it's staring them in the fucking face" So be a hypocritical little twat on your own time. Pretentious user name? Do you even read what you write? The two words "layman" and "scholar" are contradictory, dumb ass!

@LaymanScholar Yeah, the sixties were known for the total lack of any notable musicians. That's not just an imaginary thing that you made up. Absolutely no musical innovations occurred in the sixties.

@bewildebeest There will always be criminals in high places. Metallica said the same thing Dylan said with their "Disposable Heroes" and nothing changed. Criminal kids listen to their governments, get their blood boiling thinking of shooting "the enemy." These kids exist in all cultures the world wide. They volunteer, and the survivors procreate, passing on the poisoned mind.
There are good people to. Aim at the ignorant; try to teach them awareness.

I had a very strange vision whilst I listened to this timeless, sad, and
prophetic song. The photo looks like two young people walking along
a dusty street. It looks like the people walking on the streets just after
the attacks on the WTC. And they were an INSIDE JOB!!
When will anyone wake up to the fact that our youngest, our best, our finest,
have been, and are still being used and sent as innocent victims to the masters
of war, who do not have any sleepless nights about our losses.
