I think winning the Nobel Prize for Literature is all you need to say, except that he kicked the door in for the rebellious songs of the 60's and his poetry is taught in many universities.

You have got to listen, blowing in the wind and hurricane. Great Dylan dongs

So much to say about this living legend, but I'll keep it short! Dylan is known as one of the greatest songwriters/poets of all time -- a gifted wordsmith and storyteller, with a political conscience. He started out as an American folk singer of the 60s, then turned more to the rock side, inspiring such bands as the Beatles and bringing folk-rock more into the mainstream. A few of his early well-known songs are: "Blowin' In The Wind", "The Times They Are A-changin'", "Like A Rolling Stone", "Hey Mr. Tambourine Man", and so many more. Thanks for another great reaction, guys! ✌💙✌

Dylan wrote "All Along the Watchtower", made famous by Jimi Hendrix.

That one and the Death of Hattie Carroll or Turn, Turn, Turn. 3 great songs about horrible injustices. All by Bob Dylan.

There's Bob Dylan, then there's all the rest. He's unique, a one off, irreplaceable, the likes of whom we will never see again. His canon of work is unsurmountable, no one equals his output, content, genre of work, live performances, once you're hooked, there's no going back...

Greatest songwriter ever

Dylan is my favorite artist. You see the comments from others extolling his virtues and achievements and it’s all true. His songs, The Times They Are A-changing, It’s Alright Ma, Like A Rolling Stone, Subterranean Homesick Blues, Tangled Up In Blue and Masters of War are worthy. Really, you can’t go wrong with any Dylan song. Deep rabbit hole. Most importantly, listen to the lyrics.

My favorite Bob Dylan song is "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" but you should also check out "Mr Tambourine Man", "Blowin' In The Wind", "The Times They Are A-Changin'", "Tangled Up In Blue" and "Like A Rolling Stone".

And Blind Willie McTell, Hurricane

This song always gives me goosebumps. 💗

Bob Dylan was raised within less than an hour from me in Minnesota. I attended one of his open air concerts in the harbor city of Duluth right on the shore of big Lake Superior. What a concert underneath the stars on a warm summer's night! Bob's awards are many, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature; several Grammy awards and so much more! *One of Dylan's finest work is his recording of "Hurricane", a true biographical account of a black professional boxer named Reuben Carter, who was falsely accused and tried for murder.

@@aaronhaupert3015 Just sayin Hey! I've grown to love that city. Winter time with all the hills prove scary. My mom was down there over one winter, I was driving a rear wheel drive older car, coming down Mesabi was scary slippin and sliding. Just a street above from my friends nurse had a front wheel car cheap. That $500 car got me all over for a couple yrs or more. I'm a musician so I appreciate music. I didn't mention Paul Simon from Simon and Garfunkel was along with Bob that nite. Take Care bro! THANKS!

You need to check out more Bob Dylan. Hurricane, Like a Rolling Stone, Blowing In The Wind, It’s Alright Ma ( I’m Only Bleeding), just to name a few.

“Lay lady lay” is a great song too.

I think Tangled Up in Blue would make a great reaction; the classic Bob Dylan sound and a story that keeps your attention perfectly written about an intricate love story

Guys!! Im telling you, check out Bob Dylan's It's Alright Ma (Im Only Bleeding) from 1966!! Its rap before the birth of hip hop, bars for dayyyys, youll love the flow and lyricism!🤘

Subterranean Homesick Blues by Dylan. You will be surprised.

Subterranean Homesick Blues is a must.

Dylan is amazing, a pure genius

If you want to see early “ rap” by Bob in the mid-sixties watch the “ Subterranean Homesick Blues” video. Also- get out the lyrics for “ Like A Rolling Stone”. He is our singer songwriter poet laureate who’s been also covered hundreds of times. Another great live video is “ Hurricane” which is about the prize fighter, Ruben “ Hurricane” Carter , who was falsely imprisoned for murder. Bob’s song helped to get him out of jail. He sang at MLK’s March on Washington at age 21- by invitation. ❤❤❤❤ And don’t forget Jimi Hendrix’s biggest record - “ All Along the Watchtower” - written by Bob!

The times they are a changin by Bob Dylan you guys will love

Bob Dylan has written over 600 songs ~ I wouldn't even know where to start to suggest what to listen to next. Maybe ~ Lay Lady Lay, Blowin' in the Wind,

Thank you for this, we love Bob 🎇. 😍

The Clip from the Movie is the way to listen . Poor Old Slim Pickings. Classic

Joni Mitchell is right up there with Dylan for song writing.

You need to see the film scene this was written for - just heartbreaking.

The scene in Pat Garret and Billy the kid with Slim Pickens as the dying old sheriff was the best I'd seen ❤

Those would be the 2 I would recommend as well. Blowing in the Wind after those 2.

My fav by Dylan-Jokerman

Bob Dylan wrote the music for the soundtrack of the western film Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid, directed by the great film director Sam Pekinpah (who also directed the fantastic western The Wild Bunch). Knocking on Heaven's Door is a song from that soundtrack where one of the men (Slim Pickens) hunting Billy is shot in the stomach, and while not already dead, knows that there is no hope of him surviving the wound.

I taught myself to play the guitar, Ive been playing for about 15 months and I get better every day well Ive mastered this song, it is the beginners chords but Im still proud of myself

Sometimes people forget a good portion of GnR's catalog was covers- *"Knockin' On Heaven's Door"* (Bob Dylan), *"Live and Let Die"* (Paul McCartney and Wings), *"Sympathy For The Devil"* (Rolling Stones) from the Interview With The Vampire soundtrack, and *"Since I Don't Have You"* (The Skyliners) from their album The Spaghetti Incident..which was an entire album of covers.

As other’s here are saying: “Hurricane” “Gotta Serve Somebody” and I’d add “Not Dark Yet”.

Mr. Dylon's "Subterranean Home siçk Blues" is a must.

Bob was in the movie. Oh boy big Dylan rabbit hole. Every album is different.

More recently than a lot of songs mentioned is, "Gotta Serve Somebody ". So, so good❤😊

His "Blowin' In the Wind" & "The Times They Are A-Changin'" were very important & beloved during the Civil Rights Movement in the 60's. If you aren't familiar with them you should check them out. Another very popular song is "Subterranean Homesick Blues". It's known for interesting wordplay (you have to see the Official video with Bob holding signs) & it also references the Civil Rights Movement. Bob was very much a social activist. I'd love to see you react to any or, better yet, all of these.🩵☮️

I like this channel. This is a no BS channel.

definitely want to hear you guys react to Hurricane...easily my favorite Dylan song

Blowing in the wind

This one & "Hurricane" are my 2 favorites of his

ha...if you listen to the studio versions of "its alright, ma (im only bleeding)", "tombstone blues", & "subterrainian homesick blues" i guarantee you will never forget it...ive seen so many hip hop reactors react to those songs, which wre basically proto-hip hop pieces of art & just be 110% jaw dropped....its hard to describe, he kind of lit the fire under everyone's asses in the 60's...if it was a great decade, dylan is why, the source.

Wicked good song. Nice reaction. ✌

Legend

Bob Dylan great poet had some great stuff and some bad stuff definitely an icon.

ANY RAPPER WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THROWN THOSE BARS DOWN

that movie stars Kris Kristofferson as Billy the Kid and James Coburn as Pat Garret. Even Dylan has a small part. This song plays throughout the movie. Great song and great movie. Dylan was a great voice and song writer for his generation

This might be Dylan's best one ever.

Bob never wrote a bad song. This, though, is really among his more minor hits. Check out The Times They are a Changing, only a Pawn in Their Game, All Along the Watch Tower, Just Like a Woman, Every Grain of Sand, Mr. Tambourine Man, Blowing in the Wind, Hurricane, Desolation Row, Like a Rolling Stone, It’s Alright Ma I’m Only Bleeding and The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll to get a glimpse of why he’s widely considered the greatest songwriter/poet of the past 60 years. His list of masterpieces goes on and on.

Love Bob. This was from a movie he had a small part in, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Kris Kristofferson starred as Billy

The song is playing in the moving part of the movie where Slim Picken's character is dying.

So many beautiful songs by this poet. “Don’t think twice it’s alright” I’d love it if you check that out..

A very soulful version of this song is by Warren Zevon recorded when he was dying of cancer

So emotional 💖

I've long said that if Bob Dylan had only written "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" he would have deserved the Nobel Peace Prize in Literature just for that. There is a live, black & white video of him performing this song (on DailyMotion / Bob Dylan May 1 1965 , it's alright ma i'm only bleeding , Liverpool - England) - also same performance uploaded on YT with lyrics. An absolute must. Maybe the YT one with lyrics because he is speaking fast and the lyrics are incredible.

Lay lady lay is my favorite by him

Highly recommend a reaction to "Hurricane"...

7:39… “Like A Rolling Stone” is my personal favorite Dylon song; side note The Rolling Stones cover has such a low key trippy video for their cover of the song. “It Ain’t Me, Babe” is about the best breakup song out there.

Iron Maiden - Hallowed be thy name.

Thanks for doing this one. Been covered a lot, nothing better than the original version. For a different side of Dylan, try "Everything is Broken". Pretty sure you'll like it.

I'd forgotten how short this song is. Not typical Dylan but still a great song! I hope you all will check out his contribution of music and lyrics for the protests of the1960's.

Love this song. ❤

He wrote the song Jimmi Hendrix is most famous for, imho, *All along the Watch Tower*.

Check out Positively 4th Street or Like A Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan. He could throw the shade as good as anyone in the day.

You all gotta hear Randy Crawfords cover of this song it’s awesome

You guys should check out his song "Hurricane" about boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter.

Eric Clapton also did this song❤Bob Dylan wrote so many songs you should also listen to the traveling wheelberrys,,,❤

This song is from the soundtrack to the film "Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid". If you don't see the film you don't get the context.

My great grandfather knew Billy the Kid and Pat Garrett, After being aTexas Ranger in the 1870s he retired to New Mexico. When he was 8 yrs old, a rogue group of confederates killed his grandfather, father and teenage brother in Texas because they refused to join the confederate cause. And even after witnessing this horror, he remained a good man for the rest of his long life so I always think of him when I hear this song about a lawman of the west saying goodbye

I can recommend a few deep tracks, if you want to hear some of the lesser known songs that are great. Check out "Blind Willie McTell", "George Jackson", "Series of Dreams", "Up to Me", "Caribbean Wind", "Things have Changed". And then of course you want to hear the hits that made Dylan so popular, "Blowin in the Wind", "Like a Rolling Stone", "The Times they are A Changing", Mr. Tambourine Man", "All Along thr Watchtower ".

you guys are great!

I prefer this version than to the original in 1973. Like most people in the comments you should listen to Hurricane. He's an amazing songwriter and poet. A true legend

If you don’t know Dylan or only know him from his hits, I’d suggest going way back to his debut album in 1962, the self titled, Bob Dylan. Give a listen to In My Time of Dyin’, Man of Constant Sorrow, House of the Risin’ Sun, and/or Freight Train Blues. It’ll give you the proper perspective for examining his later songs.

You should try "Like a Rolling Stone", "Mr. Tambourine Man", "All Along the Watchtower", "It's Alright Ma, (I'm Only Bleeding)"

I would love to have you guys react to Hurricane,the true story of Rubin “Hurricane “ Carter who was wrongfully convicted of murder. Dylan tells an incredible story and pulls no punches,no pun intended.

The two old heads new right off the bat what was going down

You should check out "Chimes of Freedom", one of Dylan's early songs with timeless lyrics. Would love to see your reaction.

Another Bob Dylan fact most don’t know … he performed the song “Pawn in their Game” at the March on Washington (same event where MLK gave his famous I Have a Dream speech. Dylan’s audio quality on the KZread videos I’ve seen isn’t the best. But I urge you 3 to watch that performance (you don’t have to react to it - but it was such a pivotal event in American history it’s 100% worth a watch to really get what Dylan meant to the 60s.)

Randy Crawford does my favorite version of this song. She's a helluva singer. She has Eric Clapton accompany her on guitar.

Mister Tambourine Man by Dylan m. It’s a must.

When Bob finally passes on this song will be poayed on his tribute video

There are so many Dylan songs that would resonate with you three. 3 I would recommend would be “Ballad of a Thin Man” (the Black Panthers admired the song); “It’s alright Ma (I’m only bleeding)”; or “Maggie’s Farm”.

tons of his songs have been covered and if you don't know him, chances are you'll know his songs.

only two people have won the nobel peace prize and an oscar. Bob Dylan and George Bernard Shaw.

If this song doesn't touch your soul, there is a good chance you don't have one.

see the live long version with Tom Petty and Dylan ...and Warren Zevon sings it before he died ''open up, open up '' he sings ....

Love this song. Ya'll really need to listen to Teddy Swims lose control live

Song is OK but even though I was around back then I never thought much of the hype around him,so many better Artists out around the same time that are just head and shoulders above Dylan.

Hey guys love ur reactions!! Please react to the Allman Bros. No way out, Whipping Post & Statesboro Blues!!
