I still think the best cover for Yoko would be two tons of sound-proofing material! ?

I have never listened to an entire performance by Yoko in my life... until now!!!

And believe me, had that music not been playing in the background,  I wouldn't have finished listening to that performance either. 

Got to admit that I laughed pretty hard when she did start to make noise. There for a minute it actually went with the music!!

Man I love John Lennon.  But what he saw in her is beyond me...

It's well known that when they let her sing on stage, her mike was always muted! ?

Some people will say that John Lennon was a giant weabo behind all that politcal stuff and beard...

So, Bruno, do you have Yoko's Greatest Hits album too?

Not this one. I have "How to arrange a husband and make him destroy his band."

As entertaining as that was, I couldn't help but be reminded at just how incredible Annie Lennox's voice is!

I also didn't even recognize Sinead with hair! ?

Agreed.

But they really did that song justice and that was a take I never would have thought of.

If those three girls could have got together and sang as a group.... whew!!

@Grem You've made Craig sound like Yoda.

The Turtles cover of this Dylan tune has always been a classic:

 

But I just discovered this one--different, but excellent:

There are so many other covers, too. Proof that Dylan was a great song writer!

He also sings in his inimitable style (though many try to imitate him):

Here's one from far out in left field...

good one, but her version of this is such a great example of a killer arrangement/interpretation.

she also brings it live.
