Did not know that. No thoughts, other than wishing him a happy one.

Nope. Thanks for the tip.

I was never a big Bob Dylan fan, but I am happy he’s living a long life.

I didn’t.

Roberto Zimmerman is my favorite lyricist, so thanks for the announcement. ;-)

I saw Shakespeare in the alley, with his pointed shoes and his bells
He didn’t tell me about this birthday, so he doesn’t know Dylan that well.

^^^ Hah!

I wonder how many of his lyrics I am still word perfect on.

@canidmajor

My recollection of his works is quite porous.
In my attempt to post something relevant, I was able to remember about 5 titles and about 3 lines of lyrics. ;-p

His music absolutely sucks and I can’t stand his voice, but happy birthday I guess.

Yessss! Happy Birthday, Bob; thanks for the music. <3

“Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway, don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt, will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside and it’s ragin’
It’ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’”

Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose.
Any minute now I’m expecting all Hell to break loose.

Gotta love Bobby the Z.

I knew, because it is also Queen Victoria’s birthday, and used to be a holiday in Canada when i lived there as a child.

it was also my birthday yesterday.

janbb's avatar

@zenvelo At least you’re younger than Bob and Queen Victoria!
