The Byrds played covers of many Dylan protest songs. Dylan told Roger McGuinn, he loved what The Byrds did with this. Who is Mr. Tamborine Man? 'T'is a metaphor? Unfortunately the ugly head of AI is already causing significant damage. We are in for a very rough time ahead because of AI.

She drops many words to "sound cool." Poor execution is never "cool." She doesn't need an operatic voice either. The words should flow easily, like in a conversation. They need to be clear, with pauses to give people time to think about them. Great protest music is also timeless. The music of Dylan applies to us today as mcuh as it did when it was written.
The Vietnam War era gave us lots of great examples.
Dylan was a wanting poor singer and player. But his message was clear and easy for anyone to sing.
You can look away from a painting, but you can't listen away from a symphony
