Deep Thought For Today

I'm reading reviews of Bob Dylan videos and old Japanese monster movies, and wonder if we're assigning too much meaning to these things. Reviewers go way out seeing and analyzing symbolic elements, probably farther than the original directors went themselves. There was a time in the 60's and 70's when lots of rock songs were given abstract lyrics, and again, some fans read to much into what were really just silly songs.
