Bob Dylan – Highway 61 Revisited

To want to agree worldwide on the "best song of all time" is certainly doomed to failure. But the fact is that Bob Dylan wrote one of the most influential pop songs with "Like A Rolling Stone". Artists like Jimi Hendrix, Green Day, Cher, Michael Bolton, David Bowie and of course the Rolling Stones covered it, a music journalist dedicated a whole book to the title. The six-minute hymn about a young woman from a good home with resentment towards homeless people, who ends up on the street herself, not only questioned all the rules for radio-compatible songs by its length, but also by its concern and malice.
