奥斯卡金曲：Things Have Changed - Bob Dylan

第73届奥斯卡最佳歌曲，由西洋音乐史上最具代表性的巨擘人物鲍勃?迪伦（Bob Dylan）自1973年后近30年来首度再次为电影《神奇小子》所量身打造。

1996年，诗人北岛从Los Angeles 飞到New York找好友，艺术家艾未未。在艾未未的引荐下，他见到了同为诗人的“垮掉一代”作家Allen Ginsberg（艾伦 金斯堡）。才见面，北岛先生就迫不及待地问了一个我个人认为极不合适的问题-----“金斯堡先生，你认为谁是世上最好的诗人？”艾伦金斯堡想了半天，转过身对他说“鲍勃 迪伦”。然后这个故事就没有然后了。
