Bob Dylan and the fluid dynamics of relational hierarchies and the complex nature of their evolution as proteges become peers.

VISIONS OF JOHANNES.

Daddy, what is this music? I don't like it.

- WHAT! It's Neil Young. What do you not like about it?

I want to listen to Bob Dylan.

- Okay okay, I'll put on a Bob song.

I SNEAK ON DAVID BOWIE'S 'Changes.'

- Do you like this Bob Dylan song?

Uhh! Is this Bob Dylan? Is this not Bob Dylan?

- Okay, fine. I was trying to trick you. Here's some Bob.

I PUT ON SIMON & GARFUNKEL'S 'The Boxer.'

- What do you think of this Bob Dylan song, son?

Is this Bob Dylan?
(huge grin)
Or John Lennon?

- Good guess! But no, it's not John Lennon. It's Simon & Garfunkel.

Oh. Can we listen to Bob Dylan now?

- Okay. What do you like about Bob Dylan?

His Bob Dylan voice.

- You like his voice?

Yeah. I like his Bob Dylan voice.

I STICK ON 'BLOWIN' IN THE WIND.' WE LISTEN INTENTLY, DRIVING.

Is he saying 'blowing in the wind?'

- Yep. That's what he's singing about. Do you like this song?

Yeah. I like the blowing in the wind song.

THE SUN LOWERS ITSELF. SONG ENDS.

Can we listen to another Bob Dylan song?

- Yeah. Which one?

Umm...another Bob Dylan song.

- Okay. Here goes.

WE GO WITH 'DON'T THINK TWICE, IT'S ALRIGHT.'

The sun and moon prepare to trade places for a while, and I squeeze my hand back for a squeeze and remember what a wonderful world it is once in a while everyday.

Especially when Bob is soundtracking things.
