Well, I have been listening to a lot of Bob Dylan music, and I was wondering what others think of him.

Quite a good songwriter, but I can't abide his voice.

Donovan Leitch is far less irritating. (Bloke responsible for Mellow Yellow for ye uneducated types)

Hard Light Productions:
"...this conversation is pointlessly confrontational."

 
"Everybody must get stoned" is the correct title, I believe....

Petrarch: Yeah, his singing isn't worth much, but the lyrics make up for that big time. To me, it's a refreshing change from "I love you" in endless different versions.

I hear his name a lot, but I'm too young and too cool to listen to his stuff.

I've heard OF him, never heard him though...

And before anyone makes a crack at that too..I'm listening to vivaldi right now (the fact that I've got Slayer lined up next on the playlist means nothing...:D)

Great songwriter. His voice is only so-so...

On the other hand, in English class last year we studied his lyrics for our poetry unit because my teacher likes his stuff so much. Best unit ever. :D
Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

My dad loves him, so I've been raised on him. I value him most for his songwriting, he really had some awesome expression in that collection. As to the music, I can appreciate it, but I don't like it. :p
- Eddie Kent Woo, Setekh, Steak (of Steaks), AWACS. Seriously, just pick one.
HARD LIGHT PRODUCTIONS, now V3.0. Bringing Modders Together since January 2001.
THE HARD LIGHT ARRAY. Always makes you say wow.

 
Well, anything recent from him is pretty awfull. After he had that bike crash he found God. Now, no offence to religious people, but gospel, I don't like it........

He can't sing, and I'm seen him do a run up the piano, reach the end and keep going beyond the piano till he fell off the piano stall once ;)

That said, he was the (somewhat off-key) voice of a generation, and a great songwriter, though I've not heard much of his recent work.
