Wesley Stace (born 22 October 1965) is a folk/pop singer-songwriter and author who has used the stage name John Wesley Harding. Under his real name, he has written three novels. He is also a novelist, university teacher and the curator of Wesley Stace’s Cabinet of Wonders.
The stage name is most likely taken from the Dylan album with the same name (almost…). He has now gone back to using his real name when making music.
Todays very funny and sweet video is from 2012, and the topic is: Is it possible to make love to a Bob Dylan record?

John Wesley Harding – Making Love To Bob Dylan:
Lyrics:
Making Love To Bob Dylan I can make love to The Beach Boys Love You Do it again to Heroes and Villains I can have sex To Joe Tex and Who's Next But I can't make love to Bob Dylan I can be me if it's AC/DC You got Little Feat? Baby, I'm willin' I'll thrive in the sack To your Massive Attack But I can't make love to Bob Dylan I can’t make love to Bob Dylan It's partly his voice It gives me no choice But to focus on what he is saying And it's partly the drone As he goes on and on With his lay lady lay lady layin' I can Bang a Gong to Ride A White Swan I find T Rex sex the most thrillin’ I can bop till I drop To the 4 Tops and Cornershop Still I can't make love to Bob Dylan I’ll lie on my back for Roberta Flack Being killed by a song is fulfilling But I can't get it on With Blonde upon Blonde Cos I can't make love to Bob Dylan I can’t make love to Bob Dylan It's partly his voice Cos it gives me no choice But to focus on what he is saying And it's partly the drone As he goes on and on With the tambourine song that he's playin' If it's from Brazil, maybe Gilberto Gil That's cool, and I'll chill to some Gillan But turn off the iPod When shuffle hits my God I’m put off my stroke By the sound of his Folk No, I can't make love to Bob Dylan
