Love this version the best, but the Miley Cyrus version of this song is good.

No reason to boo that.  Girl has some soul in her voice, just hides it behind pop crap.  I've come to really appreciate her version of this song.

Dylan as a songwriter/poet: brilliant. Dylan covers: great. Dylan singing: mute. At least, with his 60s voice - his latest blues albums where his adenoids have gone and voice dropped by an octave are pretty damn good.

Just about everyone does at some point(s), especially later in their careers.  At the time of this recording (37 years ago), I'm not sure he did.  I guess it depends on who you ask.  He probably relishes being a parody of himself.

A lot of Bob Dylan lately... I know he's great and important, but sometimes listening to his voice makes my ears hurt.

Sing it Bob. Sing it.

Best damn song writer  of the last 50 years. Sorry Paul Mc.

Nope. Can't do it. I have tried and tried to listen to Dylan. Don't get it.

Has Bob bought RP, or did he just barricade himself in the studio? 
 
{#Drunk} Aside from the Neko Case cover, there hasn't been another Dylan song in over 6 hours.

Terrific song from a terrific album.  Not my favorite but he definitely got his vision back after his Christian detour.

I'll accept at face value Steve Erlewine's AMG essay that Blood on the Tracks is about Dylan's divorce, especially this track. However, I'd always considered—and can't for the life of me remember where I heard/read this—that "Tangled up in Blue" was about his on-again/off-again involvement with Joan Baez, and the unsentimental, mayhaps acidic, "Diamonds and Rust" was her response. Both were issued in 1975.
 
Did the latter contain lines like "you're not nearly as deep as you think you are"?

I could think of plenty of uses for this rather amusing graphic. Plenty of songs for that matter - but this isn't one of them. To each his/her own I guess.

Wow!  Madeleine Peyroux does this so differently, I forgot that this was Dylan's originally.  I love both versions!
 

Shawn Colvin also does a very nice cover of this song.  I just checked and it is in the RP library but the last play date Oct 07, 2000.  I could stand to hear it again.
