Subject: RE: BS: Have the times a'changed that much?
Not a lot to disagree with really and Eliza's teenager comment set me thinking again. The point I was making about Trump and May, and any other world leaders if it comes to that but maybe Dylan was better known in the US and UK? Anyhow, today's world leaders were either teenagers or younger in 1964 and those older may still have been the angry young men and women of the 1960s. Surely Dylan, and any other popular singer if it comes to that, was a defining influence on their adulthood. Whether consciously or not, influences from your youth do affect the way you think and act today. So Maybe Dylan did affect world politics in more mysterious ways than we think :-)
