Must be Dylan

Bob does Christmas. Weird but never-the-less fascinating.

This song is from his new CD Christmas in the Heart.

During this holiday season, Bob Dylan’s immediate donations from the Christmas In The Heart proceeds will provide 500,000 meals to school children in the developing world through the World Food Programme, 15,000 meals to homeless people in the United Kingdom through Crisis and more than 4 million meals to 1.4 million families in America through Feeding America.

You really haven’t heard the Christmas classics until you’ve heard them ‘Bob style’. I’m a huge Dylan fan but after listening to some snippets from the album I can’t really see myself playing this album when all the family gathers at our place on Christmas day. It’s an acquired taste.

How’s this for a song list?

Do You Hear What I Hear?

Bob is a Palindrome

I just love this Weird Al song.

It’s simply titled Bob and it comes from Al’s 2003 album, Poodle Hat.

The video is styled in the fashion of Bob Dylan’s Subterranean Homesick Blues yet every line of the song is a palindrome, which essentially means that it’s the same forwards or backwards. it really shows that Weird Al Yankovic is a very clever writer.

Check it out and let me know what you think.
