Apple Releases New iPod Ad (featuring Bob Dylan)

[m-dogg]

I thought he was dissing digital music just last week....

Well, I guess money talks, huh.

Money doesn't talk, it swears

I mean...

Old lady judges watch people in pairs
limited in sex the dare
to push fake morals, insult and stare
while money doesn't talk, it swears
obscenity, who really cares?
propaganda, all is phony...

Dylan is the man...

 

[Subiklim]

The times they are a-changin', eh?

I don't know what I think about this ad. I like Dylan better when he was selling people on civil rights and peace than when he's selling people on his music.

We're all equity, I guess ...

Let's see an example of Dylan selling peace, please.

Dylan Ad Was Featured On Bones Season Premiere & Letterman's 13th Anniversary Tonight

Saw this Dylan Ad in High Definition tonight on both Bones and Letterman. 16 x 9 High Def. Looked and sounded fantastic.

Anyone else notice the very similar lyrics of Dylan's

"Someday baby, you ain't gonna work for me any more" and McKinley Morganfield's

"Someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble, Poor me, anymore."

For a second I actually thought it was a cover of "Trouble No More".

The whole album is like that, every song is his own spin on an old standard. I can't decide if I like it or not.

I don't think Dylan has any issues with mp3 or aac formats, hes commenting more on the fact that modern music is dull, uninteresting and uniform. He's probably got an iPod but its full of Byers and The Band of something.

Although he did recently say he doesn't see why people should'nt get music for free as it 'ain't worth anything anyway'.

Also, I know someone said money talks, its more use as an ad for his album, the guy has toured for so long i can't imagine money has any actual value to him, I wouldn't be surprised if he had more than McCartney(pre-divorce settlement).

We all know Jobs is a Dylanologist anyway.

Let's see an example of Dylan selling peace, please.

The Peace Sunday concert in Pasadena (with Joan Baez), or the more recent Concert for Peace in Spain?

I wouldn't be surprised if he had more than McCartney(pre-divorce settlement).

He doesn't have more than McCartney. Unfortunately.

I think this ad is perfect, nobody wants to see a rainbow of colours coming out of Bob Dylans ass. And it sure beats the Eminem ad, not hard to do given he's an absolute c**k, but still.
