May you grow up to be righteous May you grow up to be true May you always know the truth And see the lights surrounding you May you always be courageous Stand upright and be strong May you stay forever young (Forever Young – Bob Dylan) 7 AGRADECIMENTOS Agradeço a Antônio Marcos Vieira Sanseverino, Andrea Kahmann, Carol Abreu, Cyntia Aguiar Ribeiro, David Kirk, Denise Regina Sales, Diego Grando, Gerson Neumann, Guto Leite, Heine Wentz, Homero Vizeu Araújo, Karina Lucena, Katia Suman, Leandro Cezimbra, Lisandra Oliveira e Silva, Liziane Kugland, Luis Augusto Fischer, Luciano Cezimbra de Freitas, Marcelo Kunrath Silva, Marcio Petracco, Maria Eneida Giordani, Melissa Moura Mello, Patrícia Reuillard, Patrizia Cavallo, Regina Zilberman, Ricardo Sabadini, Rodrigo Batista de Freitas e Tiago Pedruzzi. 8 Tudo aquilo que o malandro pronuncia Com voz macia é brasileiro, já passou de português Amor lá no morro é amor pra chuchu As rimas do samba não são I love you E esse negócio de alô, alô boy e alô Johnny Só pode ser conversa de telefone Não Tem Tradução (Noel Rosa) 9 RESUMO O presente trabalho tem como objetivo compreender as abordagens que permitiram a quatro compositores brasileiros verterem com maestria três canções do compositor e cantor Bob Dylan (It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue, Romance In Durango e I Want You) e baseada nas abordagens adotadas pelos mesmos, compor uma versão de uma canção do vasto repertório dylaniano. A partir disso, procurei traçar os rumos que levaram ao primor das três versões Negro Amor, Romance no Deserto e Tanto, focando não apenas na mera tradução, mas na transposição para a língua portuguesa brasileira da lírica dylaniana mantendo para tal o formato da canção. As canções, apresentadas na ordem cronológica do lançamento das versões, são cotejadas com suas respectivas originais e os panos de fundo dos quatro versionistas, procurando analisar o caminho que cada um trilhou para chegar a sua interpretação. Ao final, tendo como enfoque as abordagens colhidas, apresento uma versão de própria lavra de uma canção do cancionista americano. Palavras-chave: Bob Dylan; Canções Vertidas para a Língua Portuguesa; Tradução da Canção; Canção. 10 ABSTRACT The present work aims to trace the approaches which led to the perfection of Negro Amor, Romance no Deserto and Tanto, three versions to songs of singer-songwriter Bob Dylan (It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue, Romance In Durango and I Want You respectively) e, focusing not merely on translation, but in the transposition of Dylan’s lyric into Brazilian Portuguese in which the song format has been maintained intact. The songs, presented in the chronological order of the versions, are collated with their corresponding originals and backgrounds of the four Brazilian composers, looking to analyze the way in which each one of them was able to reinterpret a Dylan song. At the end, taking into account the approaches gathered along this study, I present my own version of a Bob Dylan song. Keywords: Bob Dylan; Songs Translated Into Portuguese; Song Translation; Song. 11 SUMÁRIO INTRODUÇÃO .......................................................................................................................13 1.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Twenty One
    Freewheelin-on-line Take Twenty One Freewheelin’ 219 This month’s cover could be the ultimate statement on the art of minimalism. Or, as Chris Cooper suggests, it could be a picture of Dylan in a snowstorm. Actually it’s neither of these. In fact, this month’s cover is meant to be a visual representation of silence which I suppose is quite natural when you consider that the journal itself concerns the comings and goings of an artist who makes a lot of noise. Before you accuse me of being a pretentious git let me plead for your sympathy and say that it wasn’t meant to be this way. I had planned a festive cover with bangles, baubles, beads and lots of angles. But then one foggy November eve some malicious spam spreader cast his spell my way and sent me an email, purporting to be from Paypal, inviting me to open an attachment. Dutifully, ignorantly and very stupidly I opened the attachment whereupon some worm leapfrogged my internet security system and crashed my pc. I tried to boot, boot boot the machine into life which only made matters worse. So I was left with no hardware, no software, no email facility and, worst of all, no access to Expecting Rain. Total silence on all fronts. I am now waiting for Santa Baby to hurry down the chimney with a brand new pc packed tight with some massive gigs and other things. Yet all I really wanna do is plug in a machine that works. So that I can hear that Windows jingle.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Twenty Two
    Freewheelin-on-line Take Twenty Two Freewheelin’ 220 There can be no question: it is a cinematic masterpiece; a milestone in the history of moving images. I am talking about Peter Jackson’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy , and, despite the multiple endings to the final part of the trilogy - ‘The Return of the King’ - nothing is lost when you consider the totality of the project. I couldn’t thus resist from having that half-man, half-beast and totally schizophrenic creature Gollum in the fore ground of this month’s cover. It seems that another king is going to return in 2004. It will be 50 years ago next year, in 1954, that Elvis sauntered into the studio and recorded ‘That’s All Right’ which many consider to be the big bang of rock and roll. So expect the usual anniversary celebrations and reports of sightings of the King by shepherds on hillsides and wise men from the north. My sighting of Elvis is taken from the famous 1963 screen print of the legend by Andy Warhol. For every king there must be a queen and who else but Marilyn could equal the iconic status of Elvis? This collage is taken from a study by the artist Mimmo Rotella, completed in 1962, a year of Marilyn’s death. Whilst Elvis is trying to gun Gollum down and Dylan looks inquisitively at the unheavenly creature, Marilyn just wants to take him home and cover him in kisses. Diamonds may be easily had and they may be a girl’s best friend but, for a Steptoe Senior loookalike who prefers thongs to Y-fronts, there’s nothing quite like a search of middle-earth for a golden ring to complete your set.

  • And Dylan's Romanticism
    “Isis” and Dylan’s Romanticism --John Hinchey I want to talk mainly about “Isis,” a song Dylan co-wrote with Off Broadway director Jacques Levy.1 “Isis” was the first of several songs that Dylan wrote with Levy during the summer of 1975, and this fruitful col- laboration yielded seven of the nine songs released at the end of that year on Desire. I’ve chosen “Isis” mainly because it’s an interesting and entertaining song in its own right, but also because it offers a useful vantage point for considering Dylan’s Romanticism, an abiding element in his artistic tem- perament that doesn’t get nearly as much attention as you’d think it would. Adventure, mystery, discovery, renewal, the vista of inexhaustible pos- sibility--these are the hallmarks of Romance. Its essence is an aspiration for a world without bounds, a vision of a life of unlimited possibility. “Forever Young” is a quintessentially Romantic idea, as is the popular conception of Heaven. Romanticism, you could say, is the impulse to find Heaven on Earth. It can sound ridiculous when you state it flat out this way, but al- 1 This is a slightly revised version of a paper presented at “A Series of Interpretations of Bob Dylan's Lyrical Works,” a conference hosted by the Dartmouth College English Department, August 11-13, 2006. Quotations of Dylan's lyrics are from the original official recordings, unless otherwise noted. When quoting lines extensively, I revert to the principle I used in Like a Complete Unknown (Ann Arbor: Stealing Home Press, 2002): “I’ve had to determine the ‘spaces between words’ for myself.
