Lyrics

[edit]

Moisejp, congratulations on turning this little song into a GA. Reading your comments to Allreet were a revelation to me. I was puzzled by the printed Lyrics, which are so different from 1967 recording. Your mentioning that Bjorner has printed a version what Dylan actually sings was a revelation. I then noticed Heylin, in RITA, gives for this song: "Published lyrics: Lyrics 2004; Words Fill My Head". So he's alerting us to Bjorner's version. I realise you are apprehensive there may be criticism of Bjorner as not RS. In Sean Wilentz's Bob Dylan In America, there is a footnote referencing Bjorner's website; this is a reference to the comments which Dylan has made on stage. So if Bjorner is good enough for Prof Wilentz of Princeton University, then I would argue he's good enough for Wikipedia. Well done on the article. If you're unhappy with my additions, please revert.

Thanks, Mick! I kept your changes (tweaked them just a little) and added an idea or two from Allreet. I think our collective ideas have improved the article so I am quite happy with them. Moisejp (talk) 08:24, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
