If I remember correctly, he was just doing his job as a producer. And she said, (paraphrasing) "well you wouldn't tell Bob Dylan that." And he said something along the lines of, this isn't an abstract piece like Bob Dylan writes. It's more of a literal type of lyric and I wanted to point it out. I think it's a producer's job to say something. As much as saying, "hey you are flat on this note.. measure 18 beat 3.. "

I think he dropped it pretty quickly.

It amuses me that "Thrown Down" is often referenced for grammatically incorrect lyrics during the SYW sessions when the most obvious blunder would have to be "I should have turned around and ran" from "Smile At You". As much as I love this song, particularly the newly-surfaced version on Mirage Deluxe, employing the wrong tense just to get an easy rhyme seems lazy and stupid.

Maybe it's not FOR YOU AND I to say.
