To think he was gorgeous in his youth??

[Iminlovewitharockstar]

Bob Dylan... My husband was watching rolling thunder revue on Netflix, Omg never knew anything about him before apart from he was an American singer but I think i'm in love!!
If time machines were ever invented i'd go back and kiss him in a heartbeat
I've already listened to about every album I can find, Blonde on blonde is my favorite and I can now say i'm a huge fan!!!
He was gorgeous. Holy shit.
This clip of him... His eyes...
Blushes and runs away into the darkness

@pinkearedcow Omg thats adorable!!

That whiney, nasally voice though.
Every sex session starting with

Iminlovewitharockstar are you ready .... a one, a two, a one two three four,
And the session would only last 3 1/2 minutes

[Ginisatonic]

I love Bob Dylan’s music but I can honestly say I’ve never looked twice at him.
I agree the reason he looks so sleepy in the video is that he’s off his face!

@Iminlovewitharockstar

Lucky Joan, I wonder what he was like in bed

He treated her like a piece of shit.
I can totally see why she fell for him. The whole misunderstood genius thing. But he was a total wanker. Her autobiography makes for painful reading at times because she recognised what an abusive relationship it was, yet it sings through every page that she loved him then, and loves him now.

[thepeopleversuswork]

Nah, not for me.
I love his early albums. But he didn't do it for me really.

[Iminlovewitharockstar]

@Mutunus I'd love it!!!

I always think that nobody dare tell him he can't actually sing.
A poet, a visionary, his lyrics are amazing. But he should have let singers do the singing.

Here’s the deal...

You can have him...

If I can have young Bruce Springsteen...

I think it might be time for that photo of Bruce to make its annual MN appearance. Shall I go and get it from my boudoir?

[goldenharvest]

Better. It listen to "lay lady lay'....lay across my big brass bed!

Very hippy dippy, and into all sorts of naughty drugs I believe.

[GroundAlmonds]

Meh. He looks smelly and the droning would drive me mad.

[JeremyIronsBenFolds]

I almost get what you mean, OP - Bob had a window of about 10 years where he was quite sexy. What does put me off it that he was an absolute wanker to the women in his life (and others as well), and also he was notoriously grubby (Joan calls him 'the unwashed phenomenon' in Diamonds and Rust) - just looking at him you can see he needs a bath! . So on that note, I'm out...

[Judashascomeintosomemoney]

Yeah, I get it. And crooner of the best Christmas song ever. But, then again, I also fancied Leonard Cohen. They could have been two thirds of some kind of grumpy threesome. 😀

[Hailtomyteeth]

Bed? Ask Dana Gillespie. She was going with him when she was sixteen, wasn't she?

Saw him live once. Crap. Absolute crap.

If someone upthread said Adam Ant was handsome, I'd agree. David Bowie was handsome. Clint Eastwood was hot as hell.

Nowadays, have a look at Ian and Daragh Lynch from Lankum. Two fine young men.

Bob Dylan had a few good songs, no voice and average looks.

[Zaphodsotherhead]

I am far too practical for crushes.

I just imagine asking Dylan to do the hoovering and being met with a nasal kind of whinge along the lines of 'maaaaaaaah'. Like an annoyed cat.

[Remona]

Nope. Not feeling it at all. Not my cup of tea in the slightest, but whatever floats your boat I suppose. It's a good job we all have different tastes.

I'm not criticising him as a musician, some might say legend, but physically he doesn't do it for me in the slightest. He's not a pretty boy, he's not a man's man, I just don't see it. He just looks very ordinary, very plain, with a big fuck off hair-do.

[Iminlovewitharockstar]

He doesn't look smelly at all

[WorryBadger]

Love early Bob music, but wouldn't ever want to sleep with him. Which is lucky, as when OP and I go back in our time machine, there won't be any unseemly tussles over who gets to have him .

[MiriamMargo]

oooh no, not for me at all

[JinglingHellsBells]

Goog grief @Iminlovewitharockstar I thought he'd died or something- went straight to the BBC Home page for the news :(

He and Baez had along relationship.

I have a significant other who wrote a book on Dylan and was an expert on him :)

[MasksGlovesSoapScrubs]

Ewww no. Gross.

[Mummyoflittledragon]

Bob Dylan? I’d rate his sex appeal on apar with Cliff Richard.

[TheSeedsOfADream]

Clint Eastwood definitely.
Young Elvis was the most stunningly good looking man.
Of course JB was actually far more famous than BD when they met. He gave some of her clothes to Sara. That's how much of a tosser he was.

[GroundAlmonds]

@Iminlovewitharockstar

He does. I bet he smelt of pot, old socks, patchouli and unwashed hair. Yuck.

[Sertchgi123]

His talent at song writing is legend. His looks don't do it for me.

You know, I nearly did post it but I was feeling in a moralistic place where I didn’t want to objectify him. I did however cave and Google it...just to check I didn’t imagine it. I’m happy to confirm THAT picture is still in circulation. God bless the photographer.
