from the good times (John Wesley Harding) to the pretty bad (most of his more recent career) Bob Dylan's wrote some REALLY great stuff, so, whats your favorite?

Subterranean Homesick Blues.

You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.

Hi! Well, Honestly the thing I like about his music is it sort of compels you to dance, or swing with the beat but really think, or just listen with more ears than you have, he's got lots to say I'd agree.. Desolation Row is Spectacular, all the classics..tambourine man, like a rolling stone! Isis, Idiot Wind,Or It's alright ma (Im only bleedin)..Just like a woman, I'll be your baby tonight, It's all over now baby blue, in the garden, I want you, even though the lyrics aren't his best, his voice when you hear it has real emotion about it, it's very pretty.. To romona, A hard rains a-gonna fall, and please, this has to be added!! - Blowin' in the wind. God, the poet in everyone has to appreciate that slice of heaven. his stuff is really powerful, it's really tough They're selling postcards of the hanging They're painting the passports brown The beauty parlor is filled with sailors The circus is in town Here comes the blind commissioner They've got him in a trance One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker The other is in his pants And the riot squad they're restless They need somewhere to go As Lady and I look out tonight From Desolation Row Cinderella, she seems so easy "It takes one to know one," she smiles And puts her hands in her back pockets Bette Davis style And in comes Romeo, he's moaning "You Belong to Me I Believe" And someone says," You're in the wrong place, my friend You better leave" And the only sound that's left After the ambulances go Is Cinderella sweeping up On Desolation Row Now the moon is almost hidden The stars are beginning to hide The fortunetelling lady Has even taken all her things inside All except for Cain and Abel And the hunchback of Notre Dame Everybody is making love Or else expecting rain And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing He's getting ready for the show He's going to the carnival tonight On Desolation Row Now Ophelia, she's 'neath the window For her I feel so afraid On her twenty-second birthday She already is an old maid To her, death is quite romantic She wears an iron vest Her profession's her religion Her sin is her lifelessness And though her eyes are fixed upon Noah's great rainbow She spends her time peeking Into Desolation Row Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood With his memories in a trunk Passed this way an hour ago With his friend, a jealous monk He looked so immaculately frightful As he bummed a cigarette Then he went off sniffing drainpipes And reciting the alphabet Now you would not think to look at him But he was famous long ago For playing the electric violin On Desolation Row

Positively 4th Street..... which contains one of the most biting lines ever in a song..... "I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes, you'd know what a drag it is to see you"

Shelter from the storm. I absolutely love that song. I have it on an old vinyl and it makes my day everytime I hear it.
