原來今天是Bob Dylan 80歲生辰，難怪我在過去一星期忽然想聽他的歌。朋友說這就是感知能力。
媒體通常都會介紹他寫了很多Protest Songs，但以下這個小插曲證明了不是如此。
台下觀眾喊道：「Sing some protest songs！」
Bob Dylan笑了一笑：「Ok, this is a protest song——
Oh, sister, when I come to lie in your arms
You should not treat me like a stranger
Our Father would not like the way that you act
And you must realize the danger…」
他選擇唱《Oh Sister》，一首與示威無關的歌，偏偏正是他用來向觀眾示威的歌——Sing some protest songs？Noway！
在《I am not there》片尾的那一段獨白，也在述說這種類似的誤解：
「Doesn't really matter, you know, what kind of nasty names people invent for the music. But, uh, folk music is just a word, you know, that I can't use anymore. What I'm talking about is traditional music, right, which is to say it's mathematical music, it's based on hexagons. But all these songs about, you know, roses growing out of people's brains and lovers who are really geese and swans are turning into angels – I mean, you know, they're not going to die. They're not folk music songs. They're political songs. They're already dead. You'd think that these traditional music people would – would gather that mystery, you know, is a traditional fact, you know, seeing as they're all so full of mystery.」
聽歌，就是聽那不死。
