Nice one! How do you like your haggis?

My problem with Bob Dylan is that I can't find any meaning in his lyrics (wtf is Deselation Row about ) and he really couldn't play or sing lol.

That's the beauty and influence of Dylan though. So many found their own meanings to his music, he created a kind of poetry loving sub-culture that were looking for a pseudo prophet like him to fill in the words to their lives experiences. He was amazed at some of the interpretations people had for his lyrics. His autobiography is amazing, you should try to pick it up!

C'mon guys, dust it off and post your answers, I'd love to hear about everyone's choices.
