I can appreciate that a whole corporate big deal is going with Bob Dylan and introducing him to the 21st century. Yeah, DVDs, CDs, new compilations, and who knows what, plus the Bob Dylan machine that enabled you to write your own messages on the Subterranean Homesick Blues, pre-video video. And the weird use of All Along The Watchtower on Battlestar Galactica. Old Bob’s always been there, alternately – and probably fiendishly – inspiring and disappointed. I mean, the Victoria’s Secret video was a bit of a shock, but did he really have to do a fucking commercial for a gas guzzling behemoth like the Cadillac Escalade – Tony Soprano's vehicle of choice, that gets 14 mpg in the city and 19 mpg on the highway, and was named the worst SUV in terms of fuel economy? It makes it hard to retain the memory of this guy.
On the other hand, this is the finest cat animation I’ve seen in many a month. (If you understand feline wiles.) You need the sound.

More money for Bob. That's the rule.
As people age, most of them begin to realize that "selling out" is a concept invented by, and for, kids. It's all about making a living, not making a statement.
Uh...like Dylan has to worry about making a fucking living?
Are you saying that ideals are merely a youthful aberation and greed is the only real criterion?
Bogus ideals are a youthful abberation, illusionary ideals are worthless. There's not a goddamn thing wrong with Mr. Dylan paying some attention to the bottom line.
You've written some work for profit, haven't you Mr. Farren? Some things taht weren't sociological manifestos? Was "Car Wars" meant to support some lofty ideal? Is it OK for you to "sell out", but not Mr. Dylan? Or do you have kids (or a cat) to feed? Everyone has to make some green.
please do not feed the trolls.
Listen anonymous. No one is happy writing a pot boiler to pay the rent, but there's one hell of difference between that and banking your umpteenth million by promoting a well know environment hazzard. No matter how broke, I would never write ad copy for Smith & Wesson or the Republican Party.
Had never seen the 'Victoria's Secret' vid before. To hell with each and every one of you. Fellow hoodlum Mike and me loved it. Cheers, Mick.
Blessed are the hoodlums for they shall make me smile.
