Interesting. I think I hate this one,


Both are fantastic. I wouldn't put either as being their best. Dusty's was Son of a Preacher Man, Bob's best 60s song I really need time on.

 

[City Hobgoblin]

Both "Brill" !?

Great songs, tougher than tough choice. love the promo vid for the Dylan one.

Dusty's son of a preacher man is an all time great would beat most things, this is bit ambling for my tastes. Dylan song is a classic for a reason and wins easily for me.

Went for Dusty as I must admit I dont really get the fuss over Dylan as a performer. Dylan to me was a great lyricist would have been better staying as a writer and having someone else perform his songs (see Bernie Taupin/Elton John for point of reference). I dont mind the "folk" style to his music but his singing really grates on me.

Dusty. Dylan is too recitative for a song competition.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I think this round is going to serve up many more similar contests.
Dylan was an easy vote for me as he's a firm favourite and I've sang this tune at karaoke a few times - but Dusty's song is a timeless classic too.
