Default Re: Bob Dylan-"I'm Not Supposed to Care"

Can you imagine what a boring place this world would be if we all liked the same music? There would be no variety at all.

I've found, as I get older, my taste in music has changed. Dad really wanted me to play the fiddle. I wouldn't, because I though it was too old fashioned. And I would never, ever, listen to bluegrass! Now, I enjoy it, and I play both the fiddle and the banjo. When I was a teenager, I wouldn't be caught dead listening to country. It wasn't the 'in' thing. It was rock for me... CCR, BTO, Rolling Stones, and many more. Now I rarely listen to rock, and prefer country and folk.

My point being... I'm glad we all have different tastes in music, different favorite singers. It's a choice we all make, and doesn't make one person's opinions any more valued than that of another person.
Personally, I like Dylan's music and I think he influenced popular American music in a way no one ever did before, or will ever do again. But I'm sticking to my guns... Not Supposed To Care is definitely not one of my Dylan favorites.
