Limerlight Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Bob Dylan is one of the best lyricists and artists of our time and this is a great song both the original and the cover.

Michael* Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 ^Ah, I figured as much. This song was actually from a really interesting album released a few years ago called No Man's Woman, which features a bunch of Australian male artists covering songs originally perfomed by females. There's some pretty cool stuff on there.. you might like it If it's on Spotify I'll be sure to give it a go.

Not available in Australia yet though Oh, I didn't know that. Is it going to be? I hope so.. seems they're trying to expand it. Right now it's only available in Finland, France, Norway, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom. To us, music is everything. Our dream is to have all the music in the world available instantly to everyone, wherever they are.But for the time being, we’re not able to launch in every country. We’re really sorry about this, but it takes time to arrange licensing agreements with record labels and local publishing rights societies. Rest assured we’re doing everything we can to resolve this, and hope to offer Spotify in many more countries as soon as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
