list Your favoite Bob dylan songs!

[Tedddy]

I like "Mr. Tambourine Man" the best as far as lyrics go.

I also love "Like a Rolling Stone."

I like Bob Dylan because he wrote both really long epic style songs with tons of words crammed in, but he also wrote really sparse, short, simple songs as well.

I also like him because he isn't of any one genre, he is is own genre.

[jazzmaster]

I like "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright". There are some great lines in there, and it's one of the strongest melodies he ever wrote.

[tramampoline]

I'm a big fan of "Buckets of Rain" and "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright". He proved to the world that you don't have to sing in key all the time to be cool. Man, that guy is so rad!

[thelonius74]

"blind willie mctell"
"my back pages"
"the one that goes ooowee ride me high tomorrow's the day, my bride is gonna come"

"positively 4th street"
and last but definitely not least.."Hollis Brown"

[bassesofalessergod]

Oh.. Mama.. Can this really be the end?
To be stuck inside of Mobile.... with the Memphis Blues again.

Precious Angel from "Slow Train Coming". Mark Knopfler on guitar. A real gem that album is.

[ralphster007]

Has anyone heard 'Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie'? It's a spoken-word piece on Bootleg Series Vol. 1-3.

[Terje]

As I went out one morning
To breathe the air around Tom Paine's
I spied the fairest damsel
That ever did walk in chains
I offered her my hand
She took me by the arm
I knew that very instant
She meant to do me harm

"Depart from me this moment"
I told her with my voice
Said she "But I don't wish to"
Said I "But you have no coice"
"I beg you sir she pleaded"
From the corners of her mouth
I will secretly accept you
And together we'll fly south

Just then Tom Paine himself
Came running from across the field
Shouting at this lovely girl
And commanding her to yeild
And as she was letting go her grip
Up Tom Paine did run
"I'm sorry sir" he said to me
"I'm sorry for what she's done"

[Brian Marshall]

favorite dillon songs, are any song that has been remade that someone else is singing on. I dont know why i can listen to lou reed, but not dylan.

Brian

[Kestral]

Terje - the theme of that song is a lot like John Keats' "La Belle Dame Sans Merci", which is one of my favorite poems of all time.

BrianMarshall - I hear you on that one - I can't listen to Leonard Cohen either, which is why I'm so glad Jeff Buckley covered Hallelujah :)

[6String Diablo]

Positively 4th Street
All Along The Watchtower (Jimi Hendrix version)

[NervePoet]

Really tough question. But "Chimes of Freedom", "Bells of Rhymney", "My Back Pages", and "Positively 4th Street" pop into my head first.

Subterranean Homesick Blues
Tangled Up In Blue
Hurricane

Positively 4th St
Like A Rolling Stone

[BabaORiley]
