#1 I've never heard "Like A Rolling Stone". I've heard most of the other songs. Seems to me that if a song is that flippin' great everybody would have heard it, whether they're a fan or not.

#3 This is more evidence that humankind is stupid. Dylan blows.

#4 True gb506, Dylan does suck. I'm a huge Zep fan, and even though "Stairway" is the most played rock song of all time and many people are clearly tired of it - I find it odd that it did not crack the Top 5. Urethra Franklin?? Gimme a break, that buffet jockey only had that one song and it wasn't even that great.

Rolling Stone did a 100 greatest guitar players of all time in which they placed Edward Van Halen at #55 or so - just goes to show how stupid Rolling Stone is - the M-TV of magazines, all style no substance.

#5 let me guess - Lenny Kravitz was higher?

#6 Bob Dylan is one of the finest song writers alive today, and while there are many people that sing his songs better than him, no one, performs them as well as he does.

His songs have been performed by many well known entertainers, and quite a few have topped the charts. True, his singing is an acquired taste just like many things in this world. But, he in fact, does not blow!

So, gb506, how many music awards do you have?
