Taking a break from a song giving me fits. I somehow landed on this one.
I was turned onto this song by watching a movie called "The Big Lebowski". It's featured twice in the film. It was, of course, a piano song complete with bass and drums and such. My version is guitar. I think Dylan's first album version of this song appearred in something like '75.
A couple notes before I send you off to listen-and-wanna-pull-the-trigger-land.
#1: I really stink at the "la la la" type of lyrics, at least in that key. My voice kept breaking up.
#2: A first for me. The short chorus features some vocal harmonies. I realized how pathetic mine was on my own, so I deepened the sound a bit by singing along to it. I lowered the volume on the second voice and moved it a bit. Sounds decent enough, I thought. (it's at 1:21 and lasts only four lines)
#3: Nobody can do Bob Dylan except dogbite. :cry:
#4: You might need to bump the volume up a bit. Sorry.

Thanks guys.
RE: Impersonation. I was just trying to sing in the style of him. I finally decided to put the capo on the first fret like my song sheet said. All of a sudden, it became fun instead of failed efforts. :D
