I love the poem and I have from the moment I first heard it but the images change so god damn much you are too busy looking at the pictures which then takes your focus off what is actually being said. I can compare it to trying to listen to an audio book in the car. It's o.k but when you come to a junction your focus is taken off the story while you concentrate on the road by the time you've negotiated the junction you've missed half a paragraph of the story coz you weren't paying attention
I first heard this during my Junior year in highschool for my Ethics class. We had to do a project for it. But anyways, I just wanted to say I love this :)
The poem is absolutely mindblowing. Probably one of the best things ever written in the 20th Century. The pictures on the other hand do a dis-service. No offense to the creator of the video, I know you intend well... but the pictures are really stupid in comparison to the poetry.
@rossg77 I really like the pictures. It would have been so easy to have used some cloying music with terribly earnest video with images fading in and out. This has a really nice mix of some great works of art, with some pop culture references. nothing too serious. Dylan himself was a great iconoclast - Bringing It All Back home and Highway 61 Revisited contained attacks all kinds of characters and institutions. Heaven forbid we take anything too seriously and pomposity overwhelmes us all.
Good, I am an aficionado, watched his entire life of late, no groupy, he is genuinely interesting, seen him 3 or four times in London these last five years, that's not really worth it now though.
The images are brilliant! Well done!

You can choose religion or the beauty of music, but they're one and the same. Inconsequential questions in a secluded sport of unrivaled beauty.
