Bob Dylan has the worst song of the year!

I never thought it could happen, but the great Bob Dylan has made not only the worst album in many years but he has one song that may be the worst song of the year, Must Be Santa:



Makes you want to burn the Christmas trees down. Is Bob on crack?
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

I saw Bob Dylan in concert here in Vegas last year. Now, taking into account that we hung out at the Hard Rock and smoked out all day prior to showtime, and that I was actin' da fool due to that it was at the old Joint which sucked, okay. First song sounded good. Second song sounded fair. Third song was poor. The rest of the show sucked ass. How could he be so desperate for money?

Someone needs to tell Dylan to kick back, smoke several doobies, count his royalty checks and just stop recording and touring, and leave it to Prince and Billy and the rest of my big dogs! He's an icon, a phenomenal poet and an incredible influence on us all, but c'mon Bob, pack it in!

My bro Kenny Rankin just passed away, he played guitar on Bob's 'Subterreanean Homesick Blues'! Kenny was even more talented than Bob in my opinion and still sounded great as recently as '05, if Kenny didn't make it, I think Bob should try to enjoy whatever life he's got left.

I love this song also. The video is hilarious. I saw Bob in concert a couple of months ago and he was amazing. His voice has never sounded better. It was the sixth time I saw him live. It is always a gamble going to see Dylan. I think it is even now, 3 great shows and 3 bad shows.

Robert Zimmerman is a Genius.

Isn't Bob Jewish?

Or did he convert to Christianity???

Anyway, it doesn't matter lots of Jewish people have written and sung Christmas Songs.

Agree, it's really awesome. Great to see Bob show such a sense of humor. And the project is for a very good cause, so hopefully it will continue to sell well.

I saw Dylan back in November and it was terrific... his band is incredibly tight and he was really into the show. Great great set list.

That's actually a fun and catchy song. I bet it will be a hit and used in commercials.

I have never been a Bob Dylan fan because of that damned voice, but a friend of mine in Texas who is really into rock told me...it's not his voice....it's his songwriting. Go back and listen to just the words...forget his voice. He said he's a master....I tried, but i couldn't get past his voice, lol.

Dylan's one of the greatest modern lyricists out there, even now that he's been around for decades. They didn't call him the Voice of a Generation for nothing. Who cares what his voice sounds like?

His voice is rough now for sure, but in my estimation over his career he's been an incredible singer. Listen to songs like "Moonshiner" or "Blind Willie McTell", or "Man in the Long Black Coat".

His voice is as limited as Woody Allen's acting. But neither can be duplicated by people with ten times the range.

The video's "not available in my country", but I'll bet it's great. Didn't like his last album at all, but he's still the man!

That Bob Dylan song is far from being the worst song this year..
Wait until you see this...
The band is called BrokeNCYDE.... This excerpt from the NME review of their album says it all:

"Even if I caught Prince Harry and Gary Glitter adorned in Nazi regalia defecating through my grandmother’s letterbox I would still consider making them listen to this album too severe a punishment. And she’s just had new carpets put in."
