Parent
stop the guilt trip broo, we can get through this
Parent
well is the only possible solution for it
Parent
lets be friends
Parent
no, its over
Parent
oh maaaan, dont be mad bro
Parent
u mad! i asked you 2 days before i left or so and u were like, ok lets play this asap -.-'
Parent
but then you went away for like a month and everything changed
Parent
so did my feelings for you
Parent
you chaaaaanged maaan
Parent
no, im true to myself, you aint
Parent
no point in arguing with women.
cant really compare the two, its like comparing a boxer to a football team as to who is better imo

could compare dylan to neil young tho, who beats him ;) NEIL YOUNG BITCHES.
its more like who had a bigger influence
Parent
id say dylan had the bigger influence definately.
Parent
imho dylan just wasn't too innovative, i believe musicians who later did any experimental music, would say that barrett had a bigger influence. piper at the gates of dawn was quite sensational aswell and gilmour took alot from barrett

going from that u could argue floyd were the bigger musical influence as the page credits them with more, but being a huge Nick Cave fan im still backing Dylan ;)
Parent
yeah, tbh barrett did tell later, that dylan was an influence to him.. too bad barrett couldnt make more music
Parent
you are wrong m8 :< Many bands had taken influence from Floyd but when u start checking who is influenced by who, u get legends like Cave & co who has taken it from Dylan...

Basically i'm sure that Floyd has kinda "bigger" influence, but Dylan has influenced most of the legends who are today @ same position (new bands taking influence from them)

sry for my crap english lol

+ barrett admits himself that Floyd took influences from Dylan so imo thats kinda stupid debate u got going on there m8.
Parent
god actually i love all those artists
Parent
and basically Dylan has influenced all of those. Dylan was one of the biggest influences for Pink Floyd too. Personally i like Floyd more but in this case Dylan wins.
Parent
:( i have to tell my gf that she wins.. going to be an awful day
Parent
But Floyd still owns all, only not in this case :)
Parent
floyd > dylan, floyd after syd though, syd was bad
not in this debate lol

waiting for your reply, i love to debate of music with someone who actually understands about it
Parent
what should i reply with
Parent
my comment above ur first
Parent
i don't really listen to dylan, so i don't know : )
Parent
god damn it, was waiting for something uber :< how are u m8? :)
Parent
fine, not as fine as i would be if i didn't have a cold though :/
Parent
:( u still playing?
Parent
raging on public if i'm not playing wow/watching series/outside
Parent
k :) have u played LOTRO? it's gonna bee free2play in a week, need to test it.
Parent
never played, always wanted to try though, so i might download it
Parent
im downloading the free trial atm, i've heard that u can continue f2p after that... let's paly together then!
Parent
ok, just remind me some other time, because i cba downloading now
Parent
I think Bob Dylan is just simply amazing, mainly as a lyricist, his way of storytelling is really compelling. O really? Yes really. Ok.
Bob Dylan is lyrically perfect.
i like the childish syd barrett stuff more actually, quite existentialist stuff
Parent
Bob Dylan's Blues play with your mood like drugs. But that's a personal opinion offc.
Parent
basicly pointless debate , comparing folk rock to psychedelia (although most dylan fanbase today are hipster which i hate)
so: shine on you crazy diamond!
folk rock -.-' omfg, get ur facts right plz :DDDDDDDd
Parent
>-.-'
>omfg
>ur
>plz
>:DDdddddddd

where do i even start. plus he picked up the electric so its folk rock faggot. lol plz !!D;
Parent
i not gonna debate with you, it seems pointless.
Parent
debating is pointless if you dont have an argument, so its good that you decided to give up now.
Parent
check comments above, there's some argument for you.
Parent
well you told me , id better back off before i get humiliated
Parent
1.Pink Floyd
2.Bob Dylan
3.Syd Barret
