I was on a five day run and it seemed like every few minutes "Nothin compares to you.." S. O'Connor came on. It felt like the song was following me. I'd go from a convenience store (buying cigarettes) where it was playing to a car with it on the radio, to a motel room with a prostitute humming it and then turning on the TV and there was her bald head singing it. I thought perhaps that the police or God or God in conjunction with the police had arranged for it to play everywhere I was even once playing out of the toaster in a convenience flat I rented for three hours that longest week.
But then perhaps I've shared too much.
I love it...JEBUS!!
I will also add that the first time I really HEARD Dylan, it blew me away for a few years to come.
