"How he lives is sad?" Not one damn thing to show that Dylan leads a sad life. Talk about click bait!!!

No basis to define his life as sad .. complicated complex , ups and downs..but overall very interesting and I expect spiritual experience ..he's a true artist

'The ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming', 'go away from my window, leave at your own chosen speed', 'You used to be so amused, at Napoleon in rags and the language that he used'...to name a few Dylan...absolute genius artist and songwriter!! Grew up with his artistry!

Saw Bob (the 1st time) in Portland OR in March, 1966. I was 12 years old. The experience blew my mind & changed my life. Now at 70, my fondest memories are of the numerous live concerts I've attended whenever he toured the Pacific Northwest. Dylan & The Dead in Eugene, Dylan & The Band in Seattle, to name just a few. All unforgettable.

He's lived a life most men can only wish they have lived. God bless hie still going strong at 82 years old, I think it's because he embraces change. There's no one like him in music .

I wish there were more sad artists like this giving us all they had for so many years & leaving us with a legacy that will never be forgotten. To this day the man is still touring the country & I’m personally going to see him perform on 11/07/23 at the legendary Capital Theater in Portchester, NY home to Joey’s Sports Bar & Grill where I personally perform music regularly. Please go out & support live music wherever you live it’s good for your soul. Bob is 82, but he’s a trooper & keeps on keeping’ on to keep the music in our soul’s alive & well. Praise & prayers for you Bob Dylan may you live & play forever🙏🏻🎸🎹🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🎸🎹🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🎸🎹🎸🎹🎸

I have grown up with Bob Dylan’s music since when I was 16years old, now 77. I play harmonica with friend on guitar, I have an electric piano to fill the in. We play his songs and other old rhythm and blues. Bob has given us great deep felt lyrics and unique tunes, his music will live on stimulating unlimited generations to come. My family generations ate so much like Bob’s but I was adopted in the Uk and used to listen to the music or from radio Caroline etc from a transistor radio even had it on in my old car! With love and respect to all we meet whenever they are. We share this earth for a very short time and we cannot take it with us when we leave at the end of our slotted time. Peter M V

this video is missing the whole point about Dylan. how about his words? words are the heart & soul of Dylan.

A soul seeker who is restless may look to outsiders as “sad” but it goes deeply beyond that

This is truly hilarious. I was unwillingly riveted as if watching a car crash. For all the work that went into collecting story nuggets & photographs, it seemed the entire staggering load was just dropped on the floor and the subsequent mess picked up as is and thrown onto video. Leaving aside the verbal mispronunciations, blatant errors (two non-existent double albums are reported), and ridiculous title and intro words that are never supported or revisited, any connection to audio & video tracks seems purely accidental. The lack of any coherent story or timeline in the narrative amplifies this unintentionally schizophrenic presentation. Editorial judgement appears to have been made with era 2004 AI software. Fleeting glimpses of rando musicians the computer must have thought were Dylan give the viewer that truly unexpected tough. If the voice narration was human, we can be sure he never saw or had any familiarity with the subject. This extraordinary achievement is unlikely to ever be surpassed. Five Stars!!!

How much do I love you Bob Dylan…….let me count the ways ❤ Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. To me, you’ll always be a LEGEND and a worldwide treasure. You personify the words “Forever Young”. May your days be long and filled with joy. You are amazing and will be remembered with love for eternity. ❤

Come on. Bob's doing just fine. Go and find a real story!

Bob Dylan gave his life to music, writing, poetry, and fully deserves having received the Nobel Price for his contribution to,humanity and Peace.

Bob Dylan. The greatest poet of our times. His music and lyrics will live on for ever!

Dylan is the Greatest Living Artist, and how fortunate we are to be alive to appreciate him.

A true prophet of our time true human being Great to be alive during this turbulent times of human evolvement Thank you Bob for the great music and your prophetic words of a life time. May you live long

I had purchased one of those (Bob Dylan) 5,000 original records back when first released. I still play the CD often. Great stuff. John Wesley Harding kept me sane my first year in college (67'). You want sad? Try Sad Eyed Lady of the Low Lands. Blonde on Blonde. This guy is the best.

i`m certain Mr Dylan will have been so happy to have reached his 80`s and will be so thrilled to just wake up every day to live more of his own life, with that unique perception he posesses, bless his heart, the way he lives is so cool !😎

At a tender age I had just a few of Dylan's albums and they are ingrained in me. How he channeled so much for so long is a marvel. From the get go Dylan understood we need a better understanding of compassion. He refined that message and himself over time. A perennial artist. May we witness more souls like his. Thank you Bob.

He's lived a massively successful life. I don't find anything sad about his life. I wish my life was as sad as his. He will always be a big part of musical history.

After looking at this I don't see a life lacking or under served. He has plenty of time for introspection, art, wisdom and religion. I am envious. We would do well to study him.

Not a sad life. He is a very private person. The closest you get is his music and what it reveals.

touring as we speak -and more vibrant than most 20 year olds---these things are such bollocks!

yes he was the most influential musician of the 60"s &70"including everyone/ wrote so many great songs/has no equal

The only sadness results from the abysmal production values of this video. Dylan soars.

Nothing sad about this! Incredible musical journey!

Because something is happening here But you don't know what it is Do you, Mister Jones?

No mention of receiving the Nobel Prize in literature?

the team showed up for bob d. we got your back, and heart...filled with love respect and thanks for being our friend and understanding along the high road thru the 70's ect. May you be forever young !!

Bob Dylan is the greatest artist, poet, musician and writer in my life. Thank you, God bless you, Bob Dylan and bless you and heart, Elizabeth ❤️

I would say his life is truly fulfilled through his music. He has been successful through many genres and has a wide audience appeal in many countries. I like his early folk music for its exquisite poetry, and his later rockabilly music, especially when backed by The Band. That collaboration set the stage for many artists to come to prominence in rock, country western and blues.

there's nothing sad about Bob Dylan!

If only we could live a life this fulfilled and inspiring.

Sounds like he just can't stop doesn't it? I guess if you keep looking for it you'll find sadness in all people's lives. The trick is to get past that and live again. From all you're telling here, the whole summation of the life of a giant in twenty minutes you can only say one thing: he just won't quit, will he? God bless him.

i know he had a ruff start but i have all ways liked his music in fact when i was in my 20ts i use to ride my Motor cycle past his house ..i love music i still play my guitar and love his music God bless you Bobby

I am privileged to have attended a couple of concerts with my folk hero ! The first was in the 80’s and it was kinda strange as he hid behind a large fidora hat and didn’t show his face ! The highlight was actually when his opener joined him , Tom Petty , and they rocked the stage ! The second time was in Japan , a much smaller concert hall , and just him and a small band . He came out in a Spanish Bolero of black and silver with no hat ! I rushed the stage and watched his amazing performance 3 meters from the stage ! I was just amazed by his talent and legacy of his work! I play many of his songs with friends and everyone knows the tunes ! Thankful My life has been filled with Bob Dylan music !!!!!!

So many musicians past away early in their lives, its amazing to still have Bob .....

So far I’ve imagined seeing Axl Rose & Roger Daltrey amongst the illustrious musicians Bob appeared with which indicates I’ve missed my meds again. Being old is no joke .

What? No mention of his much deserved Nobel prize? The man is a national treasure.. Or was I just hallucinating

Dylan was my high school music star had all the albums and sang all his songs. I was a long haired hippie guy until I was drafted in October 67. Joan Baez was protesting at the draft board to give us all a send off .A bus full 19 year olds singing Dylan all the way to the airport and beyond. Those was the days my friend, we thought they'd never end!!

Bob Dylan, his Positively 4th Street, for me, my favorite. And for me, relates to my ex wife from 1975 to my daughter, now in 2020. Yea, all the lines, perfect shoe fits for them.

Absolutely, fabulous performance music, Master Bob Dylan.

I'd like to try a little of that multi-million-dollar sadness for about a year.

Yeah, that Nobel Prize for Literature must have been a particular low point.

I think you missed Blood on the Tracks, one of his best!

I listened to your album "The Times, They are a Changin' since 1963, or whatever year you released it. That was on a mono, very cheap record player, and think I wore the vinyl out. I listened a lot, and stopped sometime after your set of aging guy songs, twenty years ago. So, you're a businessman now? You've always been one, but that's that's the real reason we have so much of your art to dissect. Thank You, Sir, for living such an interesting life.

Dylan is beautiful, a true artist!

How he is lives is not sad by the looks of it. Nothing different to any other human being. He had it good for most of his life. Nothing revealed in this video presentation to indicate otherwise

An astounding artist.

click bait gets no subscribers:(

So where's the sad bit? Seems like a pretty fulfilled life to me! He creates music, poetry, art and metalwork and lives the life he wants to live, and we can all be grateful for that! My guess is that sad was only put there to get us to listen; well that worked.......

Hardly sad!

Sad? are you kidding ? More like glad he sounded out it is.

One of the biggest loads of tosh regarding Dylan I've ever come across in 50 years.

don't we all have heartache and pain in our lives? i love Dylan but this just seems like nonsense. The only difference between us and Dylan is he was able to use his pain to write unforgettable songs, but that doesn't make his suffering unique

All I know is this: I love Bob!💖💖

The only sad thng about the tape is you , Appriciate that you were alive to be on the same planet as BD what a gift!

Maybe hes sad , beause the world is in such a state. And like us all, we can only hope for better times to come.

Times have changed Wow All of us fans congratulations 🎊 on this All of us fans still capture us I am listening Times have changed.... Way to go meticulous Muscian...singer & performer 🎉love a fan...Elizabeth 🎉🎼🎸🎤🎹🎆🎉

Born in '54 and a self taught folk guitarist with a fairly good soprano voice, Bobby Dylan was my favorite male musician and female musician, Joan Baes, was a great influence on me. This documentary on Dylan is spectacular! Why in the world, though, would UTube title it the Sad state of Dylan at age 80??? Anything BUT sad. Thanks for this presentation.

The bigger pity is that an artist like Dylan would never get a foot in the door now. The 60's were uunique in that substance over appearance was the driving media force.

Hey Bob, we'll be with you when the deal goes down ... 😎🤟

I like the many pictures of Bob Dylan and I thank you for that, but... Why did you put this kind of title ("How he lives is sad") for the video? You didn't talk about sadness. One more thing: why did you skip most of the things he did from 1969 to 2020? I know that his life is very long and full of things to tell, but you shouldn't leave behind half of his career.

This is one weird video - surely it is AI generated. The narration is on the cold and creepy side and the title has NOTHING to do with the content - meaning it doesn't support the claim. There is just something missing from this video - its fact competent and that's about where it ends. There is something empty, hollow and dumb sounding about the presentation. Its too bad people don't seem to notice and just comment as if it were a normal video. I strongly dislike the presentation in this video and hope never to see anything like it again. If I do check out more videos by this channel it will only be to observe whether it has similar failings. But, I won't be a subscriber, sorry.

The narrative sounds very AI-ish. The story told is one that is quite common among artists. The intimate details are different but the story, the story of what happens in life to artists is transparent as an artist develops their story through their art. My hope for those listening to this narrative is to take the time to listen to the vast discography produced by this talented musician and poet. My opinion of course.

There is a reason he got the Nobel Prize for literature. one of the greatest song writer and poet of our time.

"He initially considered the surname Dylan, but ultimately chose Dylan ..." makes no sense.

the only thing bob is sad about is what the world has evolved to and what people have become .... and that's a fact ☆

There's no sadness in this entire video. It was titled that to get clicks. "Dylan's early years" would make a suitable title for this video, that covers the 1950s and 1960s exclusively. At the very end, it leaps ahead to 2020 and throws in his last few appearances, but it has nothing to do with him being 80 or any small hint of sadness. I did like the photos.

This man is and has always been Vitality. Thank you for the audio biography. I saw him open for Nirvana in 93 and for Neil Simon in 99. He's the reason I went to both. Biographer, you forgot to mention how much he supports and loves other artists. How generously he's shared and written for/with others. Like Old Crow Medicine Show. Tom Petty is also a great, great, self-evolving artist favorite of mine, but Bob Dylan has been my all- time favorite song- writer since I was 14. I'm 46 now and also love Maynard Keenan, as he loved Kurt Cobain...yes?

One of my fave Dylan songs is Black Diamond Bay from the Hurricane album. Nothing mentioned about this album. Also this video to me does not reflect such a sad existence now. Stay healthy Mr Dylan

I suggest to turn the sound off when looking this

Slow Train Coming - The absolute best of the Best!

He came from an era of much more accomplished musicians than today's Superstars

Bob Dylan begleitete meine Jugendzeit. Ich liebe seine Songs bis heute. Bob ist der größte Songwriter Poet!

Perspective is infinitely malleable and colored by the viewer, you could portray it any way you want. You're the one who is sad, presenting a great man in a way to get views and hits for your channel. That smallness can't hold a candle to Bob Dylan.

I love & admire Bob Dylan I summerize By Believing Bob AKA Robert Zimmerman.. Was Born an Unmatchable Icon Known as he reflected his comments that he kept Pointing out to deaf ears (( Only I can Label Me )) There will never be another ro match Bob Dylans Likeness

Nobody is sad to have been so fortunate to have lived with him as contemporaries. He is the best

There is nothing sad about Bob Dylan, it can happen to all, ups and down and broken romance. No matter what he is my number one Icon and inspiration in music, poetry, and the unique ways of singing. I wish him good health and a happy life. A great fan and admirer from the country of the world's highest mountains, Nepal.

'How he lives is sad' is CLICKBAIT!!!

Sadness my butt

I love Bob Dylan. He is one of my idols...once I was mixed up and mistook him for my Jesus.

❤❤ I think He lives a wonderful life with all the children and grandchildren. Still traveling, enjoying His gifted arts.

Where's the sad part?

What a journey his life has been. Must be hard for him cos people think he has some insight or some big answers for them. He writes cos nobody says he can't.

I also followed Dylan since I was 15. Im 68 now.and seen him in Kingston Ontario about 7 yrs ago.I was in heaven❤

No. . the "SAD" headline thing concerns how this video maker got us and 143,000 other people to watch it. It is also sad that the producer doesn't know the difference between Joe Cocker and Dylan. There is obviously nothing sad about Dylan's life other than the usual "life's joys and sadnesses" of which he has had plenty and knew how to express them in a way we all identified with. A brilliantly talented man who has lived life well. "Hail Zimmy!"

What's sad is the click bait.

Click Bait! Nonsense! Dylan would turn you off the same as he does with the rest of the press! SMH!

Dylan 'sad'? Well, with Retrospectrum, Skira this year published over 100 artworks he's created over the past six decades. Suze Rotolo got him started in his Freewheelin' years. For him New Orleans is 'a very long poem'. Dylan - the ultimate searcher.

So many of his songs in my memory

Great comprehensive narrative on such a genuine Genius of our time. Such enormous musical study. Long live the Great Bob Dylan.

Why is there a clip of Axyl Rose stuck in there at 21:38? It just pops up with no explanation

My favourite for over 50 years. Sad? Hardly. Genius YES.

We call him Uncle Bob my family and I call ourselves the Bob Mob. Oceans of loving endeavour from Uncle Bob. Thank You ❤️💜💙💚💛🧡🍀

wah wah wah, poor Bob!

He doesn't seem sad!!!

Bob Dylan would take great offense to that assumption. Because that is all it is . Life as he knows it is a risk and he's taken one after another. He's the epitome, the poster persona of life is one risk at a time. 🎉I celebrate his flaws, endeavors, accomplishments and sadness. His humanism, and his complex and quiet rumblings. Imo Dylan creates out of his complex depths of where life has taken him, in love, arts, philanthropy, religion, philosophy and politics and more. Every realm of human joy and suffering, every milestone and setback he creates lemonade of lemons, he is 80+ and still delivering his hearts desire. 💕🎉🎉🎉🎉Kudos to you Bob Dylan, kudos to the forces of life you manage to fortify from not forfeit from. You sir are a remarkable man. Dylan, Elston Gunn, Bob Zimmerman, surely your family all of them, your wife, x wives, children grandchildren 🎉🎉CELEBRATE YOU. LIFE LESSON FOLLOW THE DYLAN RULE BE YOU

Bob Dylan is a giant...a Shakespeare of our time. He is over 80 and the way he lives is glorious! He is still entertaining and educating us. We love him. Rough and Rowdy ways is a masterpiece. Change the misleading title of this video.

Good Lord! What a SAD video this is. I'll never understand why people that don't have the mental ability to understand Dylan put him down. Oh MY GOD, If I hear "His voice sucks" 1 more time! His voice is pure Gold. So, why do you (Top Exploration) make videos like this? Why? Does it make you feel better? I only know that I will avoid YOUR videos at all cost.
