Bob Dylan reflects on ageing and loss of control

Bob Dylan has shared his perspectives on ageing, describing it as a release from the "lie that anything was ever under control." He likens the experience to being "an old king from some vanished country." Dylan suggests that the process of ageing allows one to stop pursuing external validation or trends, metaphorically referred to as no longer chasing "the parade." Originally reported by MusicRadar.
