Is „Anthem“ in any way an answer to Dylan\u2019s song „Everything is Broken“? I had a line in „Democracy“ that referred specifically to that Dylan song „Everything is Broken,“ which was „The singer says it\u2019s broken and the painter says it\u2019s gray…“ But, no, „Anthem“ was written a long time before that Dylan song. I\u2019d say ’82 but it was actually earlier than that that that song began to form.<\/p>\n

… I think Dylan has lines, hundreds of great lines that have the feel of unhewn stone. But they really fit in there. But they\u2019re not smoothed out. It\u2019s inspired but not polished. That is not to say that he doesn\u2019t have lyrics of great polish. That kind of genius can manifest all the forms and all the styles.<\/p>\n

Dylan said, around the time that „Hallelujah“ came out, that your songs were almost like prayers. I didn\u2019t hear that but I know he does take some interest in my songs. We have a mutual interest. Everybody\u2019s interested in Dylan but it\u2019s pleasant to have Dylan interested in me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
