Next to Billy Joe Shaver, I consider Bob Dylan to be the greatest songwriter ever. Norm tweeted out in January 2015 (and promptly deleted moments later): I had to go from Bob Dylan to Mario Canton. I lit his cigarette, and said "here you go buddy" pretending I didn't know who he was like an idiot, I thought it would be cool, I didn't say anything of interest to him, and then I had to go back to this ridiculous Joan Rivers audition. But I went to LA, I was living in Toronto, to do an audition for the Joan Rivers show way back when, and I was walking down the street all nervous in front of the world famous Comedy Store, I kept walking and walking because I showed up three hours early, and so anyways, a car came by and then stopped, and Bob Dylan asked me for a light (because I was smoking a cigarette). It was pretty amazing, because I did not expect this. But I MET Bob Dylan, that's the interesting part. And then I remember Courtney Cox singing something about a dead dog in a ditch, and then Courtney Love jumped onstage and started dancing. And I don't know Springsteen songs at all, something about a dead dog lying in a ditch, I remember that. My favorite song is Don't Think Twice, It's Alright. But my favorite Dylan song is, oh god.Don't think Twice, it's Alright. Q: What's your favourite Bob Dylan song and why? If you met the man, what would you say to him? What's your favourite Springsteen song? Ever met THAT dude? If you'll indulge me, I'll list the instances I'm aware of, in case any of them have heretofore eluded your attention. And it's those differences that make their work endlessly rewarding.Īnyway, Norm has mentioned Dylan more than you might think. Because they never completely repeat themselves. I can listen to Bob play the same song a thousand times I can listen to Norm tell the same joke a thousand times.
They both reward those who pay close attention. I think what they share, most of all, are the little things-the nuances that keep you coming back for more.
