Bob Dylan is possibly the most overrated songwriter of all time.
Has anyone else listened to his lyrics? They are rambling nonsense!
He's always singing about how his momma has no shoes or how his daddy has the blues.
What's worse is that most of the time his lyrics have no connection to each other IN THE SAME SONG. It's like he's saying something random with each line.
And yes, I've heard enough of his stuff to come to this conclusion. My mom is a Bob Dylan fanatic and I've heard WAY too much for my own good.

i'm solid with all the list interior the solutions so a procedures, yet there's a wide pair that has not been stated yet. all and sundry undergo in concepts Jimmy web page and Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin? note: it really is going to be talked about that John Paul Jones and John Bonham(RIP) wrote and contributed also.
