The Nobel Prize for Literature to Bob Dylan has generated a hundred criticisms and compliments. The singer of american origin, had not been pronounced since the 13th October the news broke out in media and social networks. The Swedish Academy said that the silence of Bob Dylan to the Nobel prize is “rude and arrogant” and, for the first time, and through The Telegraph, the recent award-winning spoke: “I will Go to the ceremony of the Nobel Prize… if I can.”

Edna Gundersen, a journalist for The Telegraph had the opportunity to interview the singer of 75 years. The envoy said that Dylan sounds very happy and satisfied to have received the award and that the musician said: “it Is hard to believe,” and adds: “It’s amazing, incredible. Who dreams of something?”.

Dylan has never been one of the people who explained the meaning of his songs and makes sure to Gundersen: “I’ll Let other people decide what it is that you are.” “Academics need to know. I am not qualified and I don’t have an opinion,” added the award-winning.

On the question about if some lyrics can be considered poetry, Dylan has changed his opinion over time. The music is able to say yes in an interview and in the next he says to a journalist that is not so.

As a painter, writer, film producer, actor and disc-jockey, Dylan does not see limitations to artistic expressions but if it recognizes its own limitations.

“There are a lot of things that I would like to do,” says the singer. “I would like to be able to drive race cars on the track in Indianapolis. I would like to kick a goal in the Football League. I would like to be able to hit a baseball one hundred miles per hour. But one has to know his place. There are some things that may be beyond your own talents”, determined Dylan The Telegraph.

“Everything worthwhile takes time. You have to write one hundred bad songs before you write a good one. And you have to sacrifice many things that perhaps you are not prepared to sacrifice. Whether you like it or not, you’re alone in this world and you have to follow your own star”, closed down, Dylan.
