Now, who dies first?*




* The Masters of War (and I mean all of them - those who are and those to come) or ... hope?

  1. My favourite Dylan track I think, he always was the best at being angry.

  2. An excellent song. I'm not usually keen on Dylan's singing but this one works well.

    Personally I think Dyklan was a great songwriter but his songs generally sounded better when performed by others

  3. Chris,
    if Dylan had been me there had been more anger in his voice. :)

    Jams,
    exactly my opinion: An excellent songwriter, a suboptimal singer..

  4. The most angry person speaks in a low tone. Screaming achieves nothing.

    I used to think he was a poor singer too, until I understood that technicality isn't what folk music is about. It's about feeling, something that Dylan and Cohen have in abundance.

  5. Chris,
    quite!
    With 'more anger in my voice' I did not mean screaming. Difficult to explain (for me), but I think you will know what I mean.
