Better than the Dylan version

Mind you; most of what he wrote sounded better sung by others.
Great writer, whiny singer.
This is the best cover. I love it, a different class to Adele. Ferry does a lot of Dylan's stuff much better than Dylan.
There are some of Dylan's songs that only he can do though.

Now I love The Clash, the only band that mattered back in the day (sorry Jules). But I have to say this is very good.

I will admit not one of my favourite Clash songs mind.
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

We saw him sing this at the Sage back in 2007 ๐Ÿ˜ฑ when he released the Dylanesque album.

He always does a fab show, whether he's solo or with the band.

Loved the first two Roxy albums but not keen on any after that, except for the album cover artwork obviously๐Ÿคฃ

A wanker AND a pansy apparently.
Oh, and a wimp, and 'not a real man'.

Having seen him last year, the voice isn't what it was unfortunately - still fine for the early, shouty ones but not so hot for the crooner, lounge-lizard later Roxy-Ferry stuff.

That said, it's still Bryan fucking Ferry with (I think) Chris "Motorbiking" Spedding on guitar
