People who complain about it probably read Q.

Sounds alright to me, but then I'm not precious about Dylan.

i like it, not a massive departure from the original though is it? just beefed up the drums, i think, haven't listened to the original for a while.

Sounds pretty silly... sort of like if Eminem started rapping over a Mozart song.

It's pretty shoddy in comparison to Mark Ronson's other re-workings. It sounds like he accepted the commission to remix the song before he had a clear idea of what to do with it, and he's botched it.

I'll stick with the proper version, thanks very much.

(btw, I don't read Q. I could, perhaps care less about Bono and Johnny Borrell and the Top 100 on-stage sneezes of all time, gloriously presented in large, bold type with "hilarious" captions on the all too frequent full-page splash pages, but I doubt it. Mojo's where it's at, I think you'll find...)
