Bob Dylan Says Old People Should Act Their Age


. (Classic Rock) Bob Dylan believes older people should act their age in order to avoid doing themselves injury. The 73-year-old has taken part in his first interview for several years to promote his 36th album Shadows In The Night, which sees him performing a set of classic songs written from the 1920s to the 1960s.

Dylan tells AARP: "Look, you get older. Passion is a young man's game. Young people can be passionate. Older people have got to be more wise. You're around a while, you leave certain things to the young. Don't try to act like you're young - you could really hurt yourself."

Shadows In The Night is an album he's been thinking about for decades, although he believes the time to make it hadn't arrived until recently. He says: "I love these songs, and I'm not going to bring any disrespect to them. We've all heard those songs being trashed; in some ways you want to right the wrong." Read more here.
