Dylan, Bob - The Night We Called It A Day Lyrics

Is this the villian from License to kill?

Holy crap!

I like Bob Dylan, but he simply doesn't have the right voice for this type of crooner jazz music.

Not true!

Someone tell me why the fuck you need to be moving furniture around at 2 fucking AM for? For two fucking hours? What fucking insanity? What madness! Kill me please. Just make the fucking nightmare fucking end.

And after watching at least five mariachi bands in Plaza Girabaldi standing around for a half hour and spectators sitting on every bench and planter without moving I decided to leave, but then I was followed by some cross-eyed young man for a block and a half who I believe wanted to sell me drugs. Then I went to another nearby park and sat next to some homeless guy who apparently was tripping so hard he thought he was God and moving the people in the park with his hand movements. Just glad I didn't try to buy weed from the cross eyed kid. Apparently there's a reason there are all these insane homeless people in this particular neighborhood. I think that is also why the Greyhound station is like it is in Seattle, the blacks in the neighborhood sell them fucked up drugs and people lose their minds and that is just where a number of them end up permanently after that. And apparently I'm not missing much by not going out on Saturday night typically, but maybe the drag queens in the nearby bars start looking better after a couple beers? Or taking whatever the cross-eyed kid was selling?

Luckily three months in Peru properly prepared me for the neverending party that my new neighborhood in Mexico City is- at least when feministas aren't taking to the streets and closing businesses early. It's not like I sleep through it really, but I'm less pissed off about it and seem to be OK with less than eight hours of sleep. I've been training for this moment every night for months. There's always some reason these places are the price they are and still for rent I suppose. There's a party going on the left side of the room right outside the window it sounds like (at least I have a window right?), and the right side has a loud water pump that I believe to be for the entire 5 story building that only turns on in the night, I don't even want to talk about the shower, and I still haven't met one of my roommates because they party until 2 or 3 every night and I leave in the morning before they wake up. Last night they apparently forgot the keys at the bar or someone's house and I woke up to them fooling with keys at the front door for 15 minutes at about 3 AM. The young lady (who may actually be a man who has decided to be a she) who rented the place to me has a bedroom right next to mine, but apparently never woke up. I wasn't sure I should open the door that late since I wasn't sure who was actually there or why- so I just let it go on, and the noise with keys that didn't fit finally stopped. About 20 minutes later my roommate was back though- with the right set of keys- and got into the apartment without a problem.

Then today I had a closer look at the sheets on my bed and discovered they probably never washed them since someone else stayed here. There is long hairs in the bed and a bunch of dirty lint in the middle I'm pretty sure didn't come from my clothes, but luckily it was a girl who slept here I think- otherwise it would smell. But I'm definitely not thrilled with the situation, but what can you do if you already slept three nights in a dirty bed? Airbnb won't give me a full refund or even half the money, so O fucking well. Hopefully I can wash them tomorrow if I can get the (man-)lady to get the only extension cord out to plug in the washer for me (that's luxury right there when they actually have a machine) and there's room on the roof to dry it and they don't get stolen with my clothes. I've been trying to rent entire apartments but it's tough in my price range because this is centro Mexico City which is in high demand. I always feel like I should have just gotten a hotel room and when I get a hotel room I think I should have rented an Airbnb. It's always something else. Really something else.

I would sleep better if it were mariachi music playing, but no- it's mostly talking and laughing of a crowd with a background of modern pop, heavy with bass which carries it's sound further. Luckily I can't see the stupid multicolored LED lights that are bound to go with such an affair nor smell the cigarette smoke. And traditional musicians dressed up so fine in Plaza Garibaldi just three blocks away play not a note nor are seen while night languishes like a loud drunk at my doorstep.

How is this not a movie

The song WITH the video just kills! Jesus Murphy, Bob –

So he rode the elevator all the way back up only to escape via the fire escape.

Horrible voice and ugly visage.....sinking in a chthonic abyss of self delusion.

I hate this video it should be removed

Bravo! Forever blowing us away!

Such an eye pleasing video

Beautiful💗

Die you perfect bitch in white!! Die forever!!! FOREVER and never be reborn again and again!! FOR YOU WILL NEVER WALK THIS EARTH AGAIN PERFECT WHITE WHORE!!!!!

I hope your dream girl in white bleeds to fucking death like the pristine gold digging murderous bitch deserves. ALL HAIL SATAN!!! BLACK POWERS RULE THE EARTH FOREVER AND SELFISHNESS!!!!!!! BOB GOT AWAY WITH IT THOUGH DIDN'T HE? He killed that fucking perfect bitch!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH Die fucking fake bitches die in your own lies and murderous intent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Certainly wasn't no fucking Mary HAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

If I should take it too seriously, then do you think it is a joke?

What you've really done here is sow the seeds of mistrust, but I suppose that is about right since its about cheating isn't it?

A long time ago when God first started talking to me I thought I heard Bob say, "Why don't we kill her before she is famous?" But obviously Bob Weir isn't paying a damn bit of attention and never has. I'm concerned about you Bob because of your born-again Christian phase, and that you really might think it was in the best interest of the church itself and Jesus to have me dead instead of alive and words coming out of my mouth. There is really nothing more dangerous than a religious zealot with preconceived ideas they love more than life itself.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoMVfvS8rSo

But go ahead and cover up God's pedophilia just like you covered up its priests same behavior. In God's image you are created!!! GOD CREATES ALL!!! EVEN RAPE AND PEDOPHILES!!!!!! IT IS ONE ITSELF!!!! LIKE FATHER LIKE SON!!! GOD INVENTED IT!!!!!

Actually I think I've already been shot but I'm just in a state of denial about the situation. You'll have to read Bob Weir's side of the story about the whole bottom dropping out though once again because my life is really too short to reiterate that whole situation. But then it also looks like you might have hit an ovary which also isn't good! I am on birth control and have been since my 20's because my periods became progressively worse and worse- from no pain at all to vomiting because I was in so pain, having to leave work every time- once I even had to be evacuated from a top ski lift shack at night- and having to take some inordinate amount of Ibuprofen and try to sleep if anything. I could not function at all for at least a day every four weeks and like the worst pain you can think of besides maybe childbirth itself. It was just so fucked up. I would never have kids anyway, for obvious reasons. Bang, I'm dead. I like kids and really understand why people have them as I grow older. But I will always have nothing and not even the opportunity to adopt and now I'm really too old. Good thing it ain't me babe!! Cause if I were Mary you'd all be in serious trouble!!! God can rape women and move their muscles by its own will- not theirs, but as far as I know it can't just make male children from just an egg. If it could have impregnated me, it would have already done so!! God can fuck the holy shit out of women (and men) for decades though without ever being caught, especially if there is no pregnancy that shows from such behavior. No proof. No evidence. No one will ever believe me. But you all believe babies are born without fathers? With just God itself right? But there was no sex involved there either? Uhhh, ok? You just believe whatever your pretty little heads want to I guess! Rape doesn't happen with God fucking you!! You fuck you right??? Isn't just all my fault? Shouldn't I be drugged and locked up for even saying GOD FUCKING RAPED ME FOR YEARS?????

Anyway, watch for the appearance of a fire poker in The Gospel of Bob when its published Bob. There already is one in Bob Weir's section.

This song really freaks me out Bob and I just spent all day thinking how I was going to be killed by you. But, like I said, I don't like the rings- Bob Weir never gave me shit anyway- and I would never wear white like that either. Ever. I'm a dirty girl and closer to mud than pristine. I'd be wearing a rainbow even in a dress. Me and Eleanor Roosevelt actually have very similar fashion sensibilities if you want to know the truth. Even in my wildest dreams I'd still being going out like a confused peacock. I always like to make sure there is a fire escape and use the stairs which is good exercise too- even if there is an elevator- which is quite infrequent, especially in this town.


The Social Security office and hospitals are the only ones with elevators in Wenatchee besides hotels and The Morris Building. The Morris Building is an old building downtown where I once had a hairdresser as a child who developed an eyebrow twitch so badly that he had to have the muscle surgically cut off that was twitching, as well as the childhood psychologist who didn't help me at all but gave me facial twitches from the medications when I first started hearing God. I had to stop taking the anti-psychotic meds they prescribed because they weren't making God go away, then they upped the dosage so much my face started to twitch. It was pretty scary. Then years later there were class action lawsuits against the same supposedly new and improved drug I was taking (Risperdal after trying Lithium) for making men grow boobies. Seriously. I'm not making this up. And they also downplayed the other side effects just to sell more drugs. But you tourists get the nice hotel elevators I guess that don't go straight to hell?

As a Jewish man I don't expect for you to cover your head with a kippa, want to live in Israel, marry only other Jews, and read holy scriptures daily, but I do expect for you to keep tight hold of your money and know what a 1940's diamond ring style looks like. I mean, it isn't like you are just 20 years old either Bob, and being from the 1940's yourself this shouldn't be that tough.

Though the rocks themselves may be large, size isn't the only thing that matters.

I come from a family of antique dealers and not only do I know how to use a dissecting scope to identify plants using a dichotomous key but I know good diamonds when I see them. Those are not it. I mean not only did I get killed in this but you both had shit rings. What matters to me is the shine, the diamond cutter and polisher is almost more important than the stone itself, and I'm not too fond of perfectly clear ones without color- though the industry tells us that is all what we need- I question it all. Also for the historical time period those settings and cuts also are not it. Today's modern jewelry holds not a candle comparatively to the more ornate settings and engravings of the past, and you can definitely see how much handiwork and creativity went into the rings in this video. None. Because they are modern. Mass produced. Without thought nor care. Just to make money. Though the rocks themselves may be large, size isn't the only thing that matters.

For the light you called darkness, and the darkness you called light. Refusing to behold God itself who creates evil, you let the Devil win.

So why did you kill her in the elevator Bob? Seemed easy enough to just take her with you. Like the cops would think the guy who was bludgeoned to death with the fire poker (which had her prints all over it) killed her after he was dead? You got to at least put the gun in his hand Bob. Before God started talking to me I kept having repetitive nightmares about being in a elevator and then crashing to the bottom. The bottom fell out every time. And I died nightly in my dreams. Those nightmares finally stopped only when God aka the Devil itself arrived. Only to hell itself do we fall- and horrifyingly. Again and again and again...

You ever see Reservoir Dogs Bob? There is also a scene with my parallel track- my mirror reflection- getting shot in the stomach there too.

Gut shot. I hate that when that happens.

Bob should have broke out in a Smooth Criminal style dance routine

I love This album song and video!! 💜💜💜🌙🌑

You have to truly be a BIG Dylan fan to think he can sing these songs.

i don't get it

What do you not get?

Man that song sucks!!! Dylan's acting doesn't suck which is surprising.

How so?

Good cover, good video, & he LIVED! YAAAAAAAY!

He is still among the living

@RenzoM Music videos are like mini movies. Think about it. I wasn't speaking in a LITERAL sense.

supreme no matter what he does - thank you -

Horrifically-bad music.

How so?

Musically. Sonically.

He sold his soul for this???🤣😂🤣🤣

He did not sell his soul at all

🎹🥅

Sheer brilliance.He just keeps getting better and better. The best artist of my lifetime.

"You're Tearing Me Apart!!" --James Dean, Rebel w/o a Cause

background for a B movie?... maybe, but don't count on it

Love this ❤️. Oh shit this is soooooo familiar

How awesome is this guy! Great album!

sexual romance is so overrated...when it collides with Bob and his built in reality checker,... it falls flat.

Shite
But what do i know!

Nice cover of a song written in 1941 and recorded by such artists as Frank Sinatra and The Crewcuts.

OMFG, THIS IS AWESOME!

Thank's Love! You truly are amazing and so full of life! Muahhhh!

Essa loira do clipe é a melhor rs

he is good no matter what he writes or covers

I love this! The Night We Called it a Day. The video is perfect! I didn't blink for fear of missing something! A 40's Bogart-type
Movie! Bob can make anything happen! My dad would have loved this. So I'm loving it for all of us who love film noir and the
Great American Song Book! Thank you Mr. Dylan! I love you and all your music and art!

2.28 is amazing lol

Bobby Bogart <3

Well done. Very well done.

I think I might call it a day when Bob passes.

don't fuck up my day! Love me enough to allow me my dreams and I'll allow you to follow yours

Wow. Great video for this song, Bob. Can;t believe it;s already 2 yrs old.

love Bob Dylan but pleeeeease this whole album sounds like an old wino on a park bench .Why would anyone listen to this when he has a back catalog with blood on the tracks ,blonde on blonde etc?

as usual bob´s songs & albuns just grow on you, you learn to love them, and this one is another of those, and if you had the chance to watch this songs live you probably admire them more

Found one not to be my taste. Cool.

Well done!

Is it just me, or does the deadly love triangle conjure up "Tin Angel"?

Or Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts

Unbelievable - but the worse comes with Full Moon And Empty Arms

what's the title of the album? CONNING PEOPLE? or I MAKE A JOKE AT PEOPLE or LET YOURSELF BE TAKEN FOR A RIDE?

bob is cute when he acts

Agreed.

Humphrey would be proud of you I got to go to sleep now hopefully get some shut eye,,,,,,,,,,,x

Awesome,',,,,,,,,.............x

bobby noir

Like the song and Bob's rendition. But I can leave the video.

I didn't know you were a film maker!

well what the hell its all good

Very sophisticated humour.

this video makes me love it

Hooked from the get go. Brilliant. Inspiring.

Nicely made video, but mediocre singing. Sorry, Bob. I guess Bob is now doing what Rod Steward did: using their fame and acquired fandom from their pop days to sell some 'Great American Songbook' albums.

It's very welcoming to me. And vocally it's fitting.You have to appreciate the fact that he has a lot of charactor and warmth which tells the story of these songs quite well.

Rob, you're certainly entitled to your opinion. And, to paraphrase a common saying, musical beauty is in the ears of the beholder. But listen to, say, the renditions of this song by Diana Krall or Frank Sinatra or Doris Day. Though they all interpret the song and lyrics differently they each, in their way, tell the story of the song well and exude real warmth and feeling and melody. As compared to, in my opinion, Bob Dylan who is reciting it in his (limited, really) style which he has been using for the last 50 years. His style has sold him a lot of records and won him a lot of fans, many of whom would be happy today to pay hundreds of dollars today to hear him in concert. But does it automatically mean he does sing this song in the way it deserves to be sung? No - not in my opinion anyway.

Bob . . . lacking sexual potency . . .has taken the usual route of replacing it with violence., sex and violence being-to a large extent-interchangeable in fucked America. The sad thing is that kids-that's anyone under forty-love violence-as long as its second-hand and/or observed-but never when it's actually experienced. We are a nation of substitutions.

absolutely beautiful stuff

This wouldn't play well in Canada

Beautiful, definitely one of the most cinematic videos ever made. The contents within are both beautifully developed and wonderfully disturbing. We can thank Dylan for being unmatched in his brilliance for videos like this to continue being made.

1st time love bobs move he walks like wayne grooves of a king

ディランの歌声にウットリしてしまう。ここのところのシナトラのカバー作品は、これまでのディランの歌い方が苦手だった方にこそ聴いて欲しい作品ですね。それにしても彼が渋く演技しているこのPVは必見です☆

Nice video! Bit disturbing that the cops start shooting at the first car they see moving, without verifying who's actually in it. Glad American cops aren't so gung ho these days. Oh, wait...

For some reason this brought tears to my eyes..

+Deb Bresser I think it's Dylan's rawness, honesty and vulnerability. Very moving.

+Dave Cochrane I cant agree more, there is something about Dylan where he can portray something with such honesty and authenticity that you cannot help but to admire him greatly...Fallen Angels, only a few days away now.

@Steven Leviere Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that! Thanks for the reminder 😃

00:40 hey its the late toronto mayor rob ford!

I love Bob Dylan's music and painting but I don't think this flatters him at all. It makes him look wooden and ill at ease. I find the 3 commercials he has done kinda the same. He hesitates and seems awkward.

Damn I really loved this video. Except for that fact that my favorite artist is a killer .... bob come on now man PEACE :)

Yea and I would have wanted him to save the damsel in distress instead of killing her.

Wonderful

I like this song—but It seems to me Bobby D. should've hit the lyrics with the narrative of the video. 'Course they're mutually exclusive, and who knows how much of his hand is in the shoot—but, just thinkin' how this man wrote in his rambling, it would make a fine folk song, whether or not to this tune.

Bob Dylan recorded an album, "Shadows In The Night" ,of Sinatra cover songs in 2015, which received good reviews. This is, "The Night We Called It A Day." https://youtu.be/iOxy_hy22CA

I feel like Tom Waits would have jumped at the chance to sing this song and be in the video

and he would've won it

I dig this! Bravo, Bob and director.

if only the man could sing

blast'um Bob,, show dat boy gun control!

Took me a long, long time to 'get' Dylan. Never too late, the saying goes...
