[baezdylan]

no one:

joan baez: *singing* yonder stands your orphan with his gun... crying like a fire banana in the sun 🤪🎶

[fishandshesmygills]

if my ex wrote a song calling me "the unwashed phenomenon" i would have to just kill myself

[pinkdanko]

cant stop thinking about when in 1965 reporters asked bob dylan if his relationship with joan baez was romantic or just friendly and he was like “yeah, we’re just friends” and then later went on to say “you can’t be wise and in love at the same time” when explaining why he didn’t return the favor of inviting her on stage to perform with him and treating her like she was generally nonexistent during that time

My favourite lyrics on The Nylon Curtain

inspired by @thebreakfastgenie

Allentown Met our mothers at the USO Asked them to dance, danced with them slow

Laura

If she had to She would put herself in my chair (self in my chair, ah) Even though I faced electrocution

Pressure

I'm sure you'll have Some cosmic rationale

Goodnight Saigon

We met as soul mates on Parris Island We left as inmates from an asylum

She's Right On Time

Left to my own device I can always make believe

A Room of Our Own

You've got pills And I've got razor blades

Surprises

The sins of the fathers Are the sins of the sons

Scandinavian Skies

On the plane We were mainly sound and lights

Where's the Orchestra

How the hell could I have missed the overture?

[thestarofcottonland]

ok sorry for dropping my personal lore unprompted but its way too funny to me that spotify classifies my favourite genre as 'adult standards' ? i listen to a lot of love songs ranging from 1920s-1970s and this sounds like i listen to porn music jdsbfjdh

also what is this. singer-songwriter. absolutely not a genre. making me look like an alien. that listens to porn music

[menlove]

it ain't me babe has GOT to be one of the songs of all time in any iteration

[myrockandrollking]

Bob Dylan and Joan Baez are both so damn hot and talented, I fucking can't with both of them

21st century contemporary folk music is such a mystery. i could list like 50 different 21st century folk artists who ive listened to or heard of and the only ones with any real like mission are the folk punk people. the 20th century revival was extremely heavy on ideology (contemporary bits) or actual traditional folk stuff. what even is folk music these days. pop music but with added mysticism? where are we & what is going on. and along that train of thought why isnt there a uniform. if a majority of contemporary folk could become political we would totally get a uniform
