oh what an unfair question..because i love this man's whole body of work...damn...it always depends on the situation...
for instance right now i often listen to Queen Jane Approximately, Positively 4th Street or is funny, ingeniously witty stuff like Maggie's Farm, I Shall Be Free No. 10 or The Ballad Of Frankie Lee And Judas Priest....it's really hard to pick one out, love his Nashville Skyline album as well, which shows that Zimmi really can sing if he wants to...
My personal favourite is probably 'Ballad of a Thin Man', there's something about the slow doom-like pace to it that just captures me.
The "identity" of Mr. Jones has long been in dispute. When asked about it in an interview in 1965, Dylan responded:
"He's a pinboy. He also wears suspenders. He's a real person. You know him, but not by that name... I saw him come into the room one night and he looked like a camel. He proceeded to put his eyes in his pocket. I asked this guy who he was and he said, "That's Mr. Jones." Then I asked this cat, "Doesn't he do anything but put his eyes in his pocket?" And he told me, "He puts his nose on the ground." It's all there, it's a true story."

yeah a very stong song, love that one too, and you can easily guess where this is coming from...
They say the world is your oyster. Well, that's true, in a way. An oyster is a digusting slimy sea creature with a horrible taste that spends its life on the bottom of the ocean floor and is chock full of bacteria ninety-five percent of the time. Sure, some of them contain pearls, but they're really rare, and if you try to get the pearl the damn thing will probably just snap shut and break your hand in two. And now, the world is a giant one of those. And you get to own it! Lucky you. Have a good life!
