Dylan should have all top 10. The others in that list may qualify for the most overrated of all time

Well, but no “Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road,” by Loudon Wainwright III?

Nirvana is in the top ten? Iron Maiden should be up there, period.

I thought you meant Dylan is the little old lady from Pasadena, that’s what he looks like now.

The greatest song of all time is “Jesus loves me.”
Or “Amazing Grace.”
It’s a toss-up.

Greatest songwriter of all time...Girl from the Red River Shore, Blind Willie McTell, Just Like a Woman, Visions of Johanna, Tangled Up in Blue, Shelter from the Storm, A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall, Forever Young, Not Dark Yet, Workingman’s Blues #2, Standing in the Doorway, Jokerman...just to name a very few possibilities.

Who cares? Our country is being taken over by Fascist Communist dictator, and nobody is going to be a "rolling stone" And this idiot endorsed The Usurper without doing any research! (Dylan was my hero back in the day, but he falls very, very short today) wow does that rhyme?

Actually, if this is about rock songs, seriously I’m thinking maybe “Shine On, You Crazy Diamond.”

“All Along the Watchtower”. Hendrix cover tied.
Mystical apocalyptic stuff we thought had great meaning, only to find later the artists were at least as screwed up as we were.
Ah to be young again...

Dylan is awesome. Good Vibrations is a masterpiece, and the best use of the theremin in music ever.
I love Satisfaction, but Paint it Black or Get off of my Cloud are better Stones songs.

Before the 'Dylan can't sing' crowd comes in to bore us to death with info that is already known or tolerated and at the same time irrelevant.

Very true...you know, I almost put Watchtower in my little list but I thought that the definitive version really was Hendrix’, which brought all the mysticism you mention out in the song (Dylan’s version was just a touch sparse and flat as he was in that sort of mood at the time recorded that song). Had Dylan recorded that song in 1966 or 1974/75 his original would have been much, much different and more powerful.

Old news! The list was in Rolling Stone, not “Rolling Stones,” magazine in 2004.
