See, this isn't *just* country music, and it certainly isn't country pop.

This is a Bob Dylan song - a song I really liked - but when Emmylou Harris (a truly angelic voice regardless of genre) covered this song it went from being one of my preferred Dylan songs to being intensely personal and my favorite Dylan cover of all time (which is saying A LOT).

I see Starbuck in this - from the theme of searching for inspiration in the ruins of the past, striving for some nebulous goal - to the lilt in Emmylou's voice and the mischevious spin she puts in her voicing the lyrics. She is having fun here and she isn't trying to act as if she isn't.

That and I am a sucker for a good steel guitar.
