    Shame on me, I don't know enough of his songs to have a favorite.
    But there hasn't been a song if his, sung by him, that I haven't liked.

    This may be the hardest question on AM. My current favorite is "Hurricane". 

    Why the "u" in favorite? Are you British, Canadian, South African, Kiwi or Australian?

    Once a week I am Canadian in honor of my maternal grandmother, who was from Halifax. Plus I like to mix it up to confuse people.

    Blowin' in the Wind -Bob Dylan


    Verse 1..How many roads must a man walk down
    Before you call him a man?
    Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail
    Before she sleeps in the sand?
    Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly
    Before they're forever banned?
    The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
    The answer is blowing in the wind...

    All this is hard, to many to choose from...

    Visions of Johanna

    Prefer the 1966 live version, as Dylan never sang a song the same way.

    A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall

    Desolation Row

    Just Like A Woman

    Shelter From the Storm (and this particular version)

    They don't write songs like these anymore, just repetitive mumbo jumbo that has not meaning, I like Dylan not because he is particularly a good singer, but because he tells a story, and I love stories.

    The five answers posted after I posted on 05/04/18 inspire me to listen more to Dylan.

    I have actually woken up with this in my head for no reason.  It is one of those songs.  Thank goodness I do like it.

    Like a Rolling Stone, is the story of my life; well, one of those stories.  I have to go with that but Tangled up in Blue is a close second.
