If anyone can find a recording of Tracy Chapman covering Dylan’s You Gotta Serve Somebody, you will make me very happy.

I saw it live in 2001, thought it was stunning.

All Along the Watchtower (Jimi Hendrix vs Bob Dylan), Mr Tambourine Man (Byrds vs Bob Dylan), Don't Think Twice It's Alright (Odetta vs Bob Dylan), I Shall Be Released (Nina Simone vs Bob Dylan), My Back Pages (Byrds vs Bob Dylan)...
Basically, Bob Dylan was made for covers.

Name a cover song that is better than the original.
(No Johnny Cash)

The statement is part of a lighthearted conversation about cover songs and their merits compared to original versions. It does not engage with public issues or contribute to civic dialogue, thus it does not constitute public discourse.
