It ain't me, babe (lighten up -- it's only underwear)
The Boston Globe ^ | 4/14/2004

BOB DYLAN, the undefinable, has done what many of his fans consider the unthinkable: Appearing in a Victoria's Secret TV commercial. They should lighten up -- it's only underwear.

Fashion model Adriana Lima, wearing angel's wings, appears in this undated photo released by Victoria's Secret in New York, Monday, April 5, 2004. Lima appears in a television advertising campaign alongside images of singer/songwriter Bob Dylan (news) and against a Dylan soundtrack. Dylan's song 'Love Sick,' from his Grammy-winning 1997 album 'Time Out of Mind,' provides the musical backdrop for the ad.

NICE PIC!


Love Sick by Bob Dylan

I'm walking through streets that are dead
Walking, walking with you in my head
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
And the clouds are weeping

Did I hear someone tell a lie?
Did I hear someone's distant cry?
I spoke like a child; you destroyed me with a smile
While I was sleeping

I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
This kind of love I'm so sick of it

I see, I see lovers in the meadow
I see, I see silhouettes in the window
I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on
To a shadow

I'm sick of love; I hear the clock tick
This kind of love; I'm love sick

Sometimes the silence can be like the thunder
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
Could you ever be true?
I think of you
And I wonder

I'm sick of love; I wish I'd never met you
I'm sick of love; I'm trying to forget you

Just don't know what to do
I'd give anything to
Be with you

Many are hoping that future commercials will use the Blonde on Blonde soundtrack ;)

» You Angel You

You angel you
You got me under your wing
The way you walk and the way you talk
I feel I could almost sing.

You angel you
You're as fine as anything's fine
I just want to watch you talk
With your memory on my mind
You know, I can't sleep at night for trying.

Yes, I never did feel this way before
I never did get up and walk the floor
If this is love then give me more
And more and more and more and more.

You angel you
You're as fine as can be
The way you walk and the way you talk
Is the way it ought to be.

You know, I can't sleep at night for trying
Never did feel this way before
Never did get up and walk the floor
If this is love then give me more
And more and more and more and more.

You angel you
You got me under your wing
The way you walk and the way you talk
I swear it makes me sing.

Dennis Miller's take on the Dylan tie-in was that Victoria's Secret wanted to keep 14-year-old boys from masturbating while watching their commercials. :=)

Yes, I can see why Dylan fans are so upset, what with all his work up until now having been done for free...

I have been a relatively good boy on this thread, but if you post another picture of Bob Dylan, all bets are off.

That's what i was saying on a musician msg board. He makes his living SELLING songs and recordings of songs and performances. It's his JOB. Then you get typical leftist crap that he's got "enough" money. Dummies.

Honestly, I'm not quite sure what Victoria's Secret is trying to do with these ads and their fashion shows.
It's Women who buy their products.......they may end up alienating them.

Well they'll choose a man for you to meet tonight
You'll play the fool and learn how to walk through doors
How to enter into the gates of paradise
No, how to carry a burden too heavy to be yours
Yeah, from the stage they'll be tryin' to get water outta rocks
A whore will pass the hat, collect a hundred grand and say thanks
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in
Sing "Amazing Grace" all the way to the Swiss banks

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

They got some beautiful people out there, man
They can be a terror to your mind and show you how to hold your tongue
They got mystery written all over their forehead
They kill babies in the crib and say only the good die young
They don't believe in mercy
Judgment on them is something that you'll never see
They can exalt you up or bring you down main route
Turn you into anything that they want you to be

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back
