It’s really hard to pick one favourite song . It changes week to week .
At the moment it’s , Series of dreams, Most of the time , Seven days , Caribbean wind , Precious angel , Black diamond bay , Things have changed , I’ll leave it at that for now .

I heard Things Have Changed for the first time a few days ago and have it on repeat since. I’ve never listened to him much, his delivery is very interesting, he puts emphasis on odd syllables which gives the tunes an unpredictable feel. Cool lyrics too.

The baxtard changed his opening song from this too Ballad Of A thin man a few days before the Kilkenny 2019 show

Wanted to hear things have changed but sadly not

Ain't me babe is another surprising one that Dylan wrote but you would of guessed it was Johnny Cash who did

Hmm, I never thought that but I can hear what you mean. I could actually imagine Johnny singing Motorpsycho Nitemare too.

Actually I really like A Sweetheart Like You which is on the same album I believe.

Also, Simple Twist of Fate
Senor
Subterranean Homesick Blues
Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands
Tangled up in Blue
Leopard skin Pillbox Hat
Hurricane
Wicked Messenger
.....
in fact, most of them. Too long to list

Hurricane is his best song by an absolute mile

What do you Dylan fans make of Murder Most Foul?

I'm not a massive BD fan myself, more a causal admirer.

But I have listened to this song quite a few times now when I'm on night shift. I think it's a belter.

Btw, not saying it's his best ever at all!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of the guy’s “work” but he really could have done with an editor.

I see the song ‘Hurricane’ getting mentioned a fair bit here. The first time I encountered that one was in the movie ‘Dazed and Confused’, used very well too but then you seek it out and listen and you realise that it’s overly long and only really has a good “hook”.

Reminds me of when ‘Spaceman’ by Babylon Zoo was used on a Levi’s ad. Everyone thought it was some class “dance” tune but after the intro it descends into a torpid , faux-grunge, dirge.

Dylan has a fair few “tracks” that would be better served with editing out a number of verses.

Leg End Reject

Positively 4th Street.

Same as! Great scene, good song.

I'm sure its been mentioned before on the thread and I can't claim to be a Dylan aficionado but I've always loved Tangled Up In Blue.
