Do not, repeat not, attempt an analogy with an icon from times past, ie ‘She is my/this/our generation’s Bob Dylan’. This way only madness and mulled wine-fuelled vitriol lie. Plus, if a song-for-song, head-to-head challenge is initiated you’re definitely going to lose: if only because you’ll be lucky to get through the first two-and-a-half minutes of ‘All Too Well’ before it gets swapped out for the whole of ‘Blonde On Blonde’. Instead, rather than showing them the TIME profile, just steal and fire off a bunch of the zingers from the TIME profile – “She’s the last monoculture left in our stratified world” is my current fave – and move on to the next convo topic, because… well, how would you respond to that?
