About the changes in his songwriting on Another Side of Bob DylanBob Dylan told the Sheffield University Paper in May 1965:  “The big difference is that the songs I was writing last year . . . they were what I call one-dimensional songs, but my new songs I’m trying to make more three-dimensional, you know, there’s more symbolism, they’re written on more than one level.”  Later that year, speaking of My Back Pages specifically, Dylan told Margaret Steen in an interview for The Toronto Star:  “I was in my New York phase then, or at least, I was just coming out of it.  I was still keeping the things that are really really real out of my songs, for fear they’d be misunderstood.  Now I don’t care if they are.”
