10. My father loved Dylan when I was a child, had all his albums.

They were both from the Midwest, physically looked very similar. Later on he stopped listening to Dylan's music and when I asked why was told he was a sell-out, had bought a mansion in California and used electric guitars, things like that. I was confused. First of all, Bob Dylan is a stage name, and I'm sure he set out to be famous and did anything he could to do it. Dylan's an entertainer, not some sort of Gandhi.

I don't really know the lyrics to Dylan's songs because I hate his voice so much that I run from the room screaming when I hear any of his music. His voice is fun to mimic, though.
