It's so good to find great Dylan fans that know what they are talking about thank you so much.
My favourite lyrics of every grain of sand is.
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motions of see sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me
I'm hanging in the balance of the reality of man
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand. I could have picked any verse from this song. Oh and it's my funeral song, little bit morbid sorry

Thank you Matthew and Sam for this great video! Dylan is one of my favorites. I am not familiar with all of his albums and songs (there are so many!) but he has really great stuff. As a non-native speaker I give not the attention to the lyrics as I possibly should. But some of the lyrics stick in mind. My favorite line is from You are a big girl now: "Time is a jet plane, it moves so fast..". I will listen to all the songs you mentioned and I am looking forward to explore the lyrics. Thanks for the great inspiration guys!

Hey Matthew and Sam great show. It must have taken awhile to narrow Dylan's catalog to ten but you both had great picks. Looking forward to giving both a listen. Thanks for putting this show together it was very enjoyable. Take care!

Lads I could speak to you all day, as soon as I mention Bob Dylan to friends and family they walk away usually with me still talking to nobody.

My favorites are, "My weariness amazes me" from "Mr. Tambourine Man". And, "But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now" from "My Back Pages".

One off the album Saved off the song Saved.
I was born by the devil,
Born already ruined. Stone cold dead as I stepped out of the womb. Wow how he can pull such a lyrics out of Nowhere
Album after album song the song he keeps doing it.

[elston]

I don't know about you guys nobody can deliver and phrase a song like Bob Dylan can, and his imagery is like a film coming out of are speakers.

This was a great time Matthew, we need to do this again!

Got to agree infidels is a better album than oh mercy, much better sound imo. And I love the song man of peace and what about this for lyrics. He's a great humanitarian, he's a great philanthropist he knows just where to touch you honey, and how you like to be kissed
He'll put both his arms you
You can feel the tender touch of the beast
You know that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
