Who Kicks More Ass? - dedicated to George ;)

Who kicks more ass? Is it...

Bob Dylan?

or

Neil Young?


Oooh, choices, choices. Not to sway your vote or anything... but Bob Dylan has a cooler name, is much more attractive, certainly prettier than Neil Young. Bob is a brilliant poet, and the voice of a generation. His albums are simply beautiful. He can also be called by fun nicknames such as "Bobby" or my favortie, "Bobert".

But don't let all that influence you.

 

Oh, lookie, I posted a poll! How proud I am!

 

NEIL YUYOUNG NEIL NEIL BEIL BEIL,... BUEl

shti

 

settle down

 

One vote for Neil Young !

Lover, there will be another one
Who'll hover over you beneath the sun
Tomorrow see the things that never come
Today

When you see me
Fly away without you
Shadow on the things you know
Feathers fall around you
And show you the way to go
It's over, it's over.

Nestled in your wings my little one
This special morning brings another sun
Tomorrow see the things that never come
Today

When you see me
Fly away without you
Shadow on the things you know
Feathers fall around you
And show you the way to go
It's over, it's over.

Old man lying by the side of the road
With the lorries rolling by,
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load
And the building scrape the sky,

Cold wind ripping down the alley at dawn
And the morning paper flies,
Dead man lying by the side of the road
With the daylight in his eyes.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Blind man running through the light of the night
With an answer in his hand,
Come on down to the river of sight
And you can really understand,

Red lights flashing through the window in the rain,
Can you hear the sirens moan?
White cane lying in a gutter in the lane,If you're walking home alone.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

I want to live,
I want to give
I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.
It’s these expressions I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.

I’ve been to hollywood
I’ve been to redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I’ve been in my mind, it’s such a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.

Keep me searching for a heart of gold
You keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.

---------------------------------------

There’s colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin’ their feet
People sleepin’ in their shoes
But there’s a warnin’ sign on the road ahead
There’s a lot of people sayin’ we’d be better off dead
Don’t feel like satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it, any way I can.

Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world.

I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away, and she’s gone to get a hit
She hates her life, and what she’s done to it
There’s one more kid that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool.

Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world.

We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive.

Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world,
Keep on rockin’ in the free world.

---------------------------------

I wanna live
with a cinnamon girl
I could be happy
the rest of my life
With a cinnamon girl.

A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together,
chasing the moonlight,
My cinnamon girl.

Ten silver saxes,
a bass with a bow
The drummer relaxes
and waits between shows
For his cinnamon girl.

A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together,
chasing the moonlight,
My cinnamon girl.

Pa sent me money now
I'm gonna make it somehow
I need another chance
You see your baby loves to dance
Yeah...yeah...yeah.

--------------------------

How can I bring you
To the Sea of Madness
I love you so much
It's gonna bring me sadness
I've never seen you
Through these eyes before
Now I don't believe it
I think I'll take it
Or leave it.

All I need
Is your sweet sweet loving
Fill my life with happiness
All I want is your heart
Every time I think of you
Mine falls apart.

I went to heaven
And I stood at the crossroads
I'll love you tomorrow
As sure as the wind blows
Silver rain
On the mountain clover
Washes away
Until the music is over.

 

I voted for Neil Young; I haven't heard much Dylan.

 

I put the odds in your favor George... I split up the votes for me. People who love Neil will all choose one, but those who love Dylan will be split between just him, or him and me...


Or there's always voting for just me. People could do that too...

 

BOB!!!


He's amazing!

 

Love Neil...but my roots are with Mr. Dylan.

Had some good times listening to Neil Young driving to school with my brother when we went together...he will always remind me of our little bonding. But then, he did give me Highway 61 Revisited for my birthday, so that can't put Neil over the edge.

Bob Dylan has always been there.... I can't abandon him now.

...even for Katie

 

Lyrically, Bob Dylan definitely. But I like Neil Young's singing a lot more....

 

Bob Dylan... neil young is creepy lookin, like a texas monster under yer bed

 

Neil Young looks cool as fuck, and he's got some kickass hair. Had, anyways

 

Bob kicks Neils ass all over the place.
I saw Neil in 83 and he was great. Saw him again around 2000 and he sucked.
I still like his music, but wouldn't go see him again.

Elvis = 1950's
Bob = 1960's
Neil = 1970's
Jacko = 1980's
Madonna = 1990's

there, that is the opus delecti profundi constabulatorius I amalgamized, but I digress...

 

no!! get madonna and jacko out of there!

well hold on....what the hell is that for? you used some big words that only rocket scientists use....is that who you think ruled those decades? if so, nirvana should be the 90s, and sadly jacko stays there :H

 

did nirvana have more hits and sell more concert tickets, and more cd's than the vogue one in the 90's.

my little decade list was inspired by Rolling Stone's Artist of the Decade thing years ago that had Bob and Neil in it. the rest is just my guess.

 

lol, does it really matter? Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears are selling out concerts nowadays... it was Nirvana who brought back *good* rock music even if just for a little while.

 

I love Nirvana, but I would pick Pearl Jam over them...just barely.

I kinda put Madonna in there cuz the list needed a woman.

 

I don't think Pearl Jam ever had a hit that killed that Michael Jackson/diva crap like "teen spirit" did.....I could be wrong tho

 

I read that Neil spent a lot of time with his children, who have some type of disability I believe.
Stalin doted on his granddaughter.
