Well, to me, it’s a great song that seldom (or never) is on the “best-of” lists of the artist, and it could have/should have been. They are sometimes alternative recordings or “out of print” releases.
I am talking about great songs that are often overlooked. We are talking about personal favorites that you wouldn’t rate among the artists top 20 (maybe), but deserve more praise and recognition than they get. Continue reading Playlist: Bob Dylan overlooked songs by decade – the 1990s
We again challenge you to put together a top 10 list, or at least 10 songs (if you only provide a top 5 list, they will count as well). Songs 1-5 will receive 2 points each & 6-10 will receive 1 point.
Here is my list:

The major issue this time was if “Mississippi” was voteable.. did it count..
I have not set any strict rules for any of these polls, and I’ve counted most songs suggested. So also with “Mississippi”.
As I’ve pointed out in the comments section & in the comments section on Facebook:
Mississippi for me is a 2000s song. Even though it was recorded first in jan 1997 (two versions from these sessions were released on TTS in 2008). The version recorded and released in 2001 is to me the best versions (by far).
If Mississippi would been part of my list, it would have been at the top. It will be on top of the next list.
