No brainer for me.  Though, I was 12 1/2 when the song was released and my mom did not want me to sing the "inappropriate lyrics" around the house.

The 70's would not have been the same without Olivia.

I offered the best last night; this is the WORST song I've ever heard.

The first time I heard this song I was driving home from my first full-time job after college. It blew me away--I rolled down the windows and turned up the volume. Love the drums, especially at 1:48.

I think it is amazing that he just stands there and sings like this.

Olivia's cover of Dylan's "If Not For You" came out early in her career, and it's just beyond sweet.

 

 

Why didn't the video show up the first time? Because the link needs a space below it, as well as above it.

Most of this stuff are easy fixes...

Olivia's cover of Dylan's

Any cover of a Dylan will get a +. from me, that it's ONJ gets this one an A+

Apparently, Olivia was very nervous about this.

Thanks Charles for bailing me out... again.

Okay... a most excellent point. And my wife, after many decades, and after seeing the wonderful movie "A Complete Unknown," finally came around to the light and is now, officially, a Dylan fan. 

 

I can't tell you how proud I am 😉

I read that too a long time ago.

 

And as I just watched the video again, I cannot imagine how many takes it must have taken to nail that scene. If you look at it closely, it is incredibly complex, and they just crushed it beyond belief. Way too much talent between those two!

It will never be on my playlist, but arguably more people have danced to this tune at sporting events, conventions, and almost any other place music has been played…lol

Since you have some Grease tracks…here is a heavy metal spin on Grease. I saw these guys in Portland about 20+ years ago at an album release party.
