S01.25 Why Do Some People Hate Bob Dylan’s ‘Make You Feel My Love’ with Laura Tenschert
02/24/23 • 24 min
Make You Feel My Love is a song that has received a lot of attention - but not entirely out of admiration - a lot of Dylan fans just don't like it. On this episode Laura Tenschert talks about the song and those reactions.
Laura is a writer, podcaster and musician who runs Definitely Dylan where she looks at art and creativity through the lens of Bob Dylan’s work. Definitely Dylan is a podcast and has an active Patreon with exclusive content and monthly online events. She is also a member of the board at the Institute of Bob Dylan Studies in Tulsa, OK.
There is an Extended Version of this episode, and a video available. Details below.
This Podcast replays a talk Laura give to one of our Members-Only Online events, and then includes the Q&A Session from that day plus another discussion about the song we had a few weeks later. All this gives us time to dig into the song, the controversy it inspires among some Dylan fans and critics, and allows Laura to look more deeply into the song itself.
