My Back Pages

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"My Back Pages" is a Bob Dylan song from the album Another Side of Bob Dylan (1964). It is stylistically similar to his earlier protest songs, with only a solo acoustic guitar, but its lyrics and in particular the refrain ("Ah, but I was so much older then/I'm younger than that now.") seem intended to mark a clear rejection of much of his earlier idealism.

The song has been covered by numerous artists including The Byrds, who in 1967, had the most popular version of the song, The Ramones, The Nice, Eric Johnson, Carl Verheyen, Keith Jarrett and Steve Earle. A memorable live version was performed by a few members of the supergroup the Traveling Wilburys, along with Eric Clapton, Neil Young and Roger McGuinn, during Bob Dylan's 30th anniversary concert celebration in New York City, October 1992. The recording includes vocals from George Harrison, Tom Petty, Young, Clapton, McGuinn, and Dylan himself.

The Byrds version was the closing song of the "Forever Blue" episode of Cold Case in 2006.
