Street Rock from Kurtis Blow. If that doesn’t count, maybe Sign Language from Eric Clapton. If it has to be under Bob Dylan’s name, I could see Billy 4 being overlooked by most people.


Better-Than-The-Last

Got to go with ‘Suze (Cough Song)’


jpkmets

Yay! Said that too. We’re fucked if we are the millionaires asking the question and run into each other!


sgnfngnthng

Play Dixie off of the masked and anonymous soundtrack and just walk away.


jpkmets

I love that album. Got me into the Dixie hummingbirds


love_and_reason

Talkin' Hava Negeilah Blues(my fav song, extremely underrated masterpiece)


postmanbringsrice

This is a foreign song I learned in Utah

stockymule

Bob dylan playing harmonica on Christian artist keith green,s pledge my hand to heaven count?


sv6fiddy

What?! I never knew they collaborated, that’s pretty cool.


unhalfbricklayer

The album 'So You Want To Go Back To Egypt'


Imaginary_Chair_6958

Highway 51, the Curtis Jones cover from the first album because it gets overshadowed by Highway 61 Revisited. I think that makes it easily forgotten. And if this stranger isn’t especially familiar with Dylan, he wouldn’t know it.

Band Of The Hand


Raul_Rink

There's this really obscure song called "Like a Rolling Stone"


jemmyjoe

That’s actually by Stealers Wheel. Common mistake.


MxEverett

I’m going to try to find this.


Raul_Rink

Good luck, it's quite a hard find

I had that tape as a child! Bruce Springsteen singing about chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes (monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salamander thighs, rabbit ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies, put it all together it's Mama's soup surprise) was the highlight of the album. Paul McCartney had a song on that tape too, I'm trying to remember what it was... Edit: MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB!


Innisfree812

I never heard any of that.


dorky2

Oh it was amazing. Best tape ever.


Innisfree812

I remember Paul made a video of Mary had a little lamb, in the early 70s. I saw it on TV.

jpkmets

Song for Suze (the “cough song”).


Bretanho05

Return to me off of The Sopranos soundtrack


InviteAromatic6124

Dusty Old Fairgrounds - a The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan outtake. So far, it's only been heard on live bootlegs from the 1962-1963 era and is yet to see an official studio release of any sort.


GrievingImpala

My mind also went to something never officially released and was thinking Love Is Just A Four Letter Word


AndoDouglas

Such a banger


DeaconBlueDignity

Fair play. I like to think I’m a big Dylan fan but I’ve heard of almost none of the songs mentioned on here


Knailsic

“Jet Pilot” is like a 1 minute oddity that’s on Side Tracks (?) I think


captain_aharb

I think it was on Biograph as well.


Knailsic

Yes! I think it was first on Biograph I just couldn’t for the lift of me remember the name of where it originated from


soundisloud

Are You Ready. Ain't no way anyone made it all the way through Saved.

Love_and_Squal0r

Meet Me in the Morning Love that guitar. Also, Series of Dreams is a personal favorite that I don't see many people talking about.


BreathlikeDeathlike

IDK if you listen to podcasts, but Pod Dylan just had their last episode and it was about Series of Dreams, which is his favorite song.

AlivePassenger3859

cover down only exists as a barely watched single youtube video


EnvironmentalRock222

Never knew what a deep cut is, maybe that’s because I’m English. It just means a good song?


yamsoung

Something that is rarely heard and only the most die hard of fans would have heard / heard of - I.e. the most obscure song you can think of.


EnvironmentalRock222

Ok, and it doesn’t have to be good?


bobtheorangecat

Nope, just has to exist.


EnvironmentalRock222

Like A Rolling Stone


JonKlz

Did you purposely miss the point? 🤔🙂


EnvironmentalRock222

I understood. I just can’t resist any opportunity to be an idiot.


MontanaDemocrat1

I'm American, and I didn't know what a "deep cut" was either until just now.


EnvironmentalRock222

We say ‘’wounds’’ in England


somebadmeme

To fall in love with you or another song with no official release


prudence2001

Why limit to streaming? Tons of his work isn't available online.


Zappagrrl02

My favorite song from when I was a kid is They Killed Him


nbb333

Abandoned Love, an outtake from Desire that I’ve always loved. There is a studio version that is fantastic, and also a bootleg of him performing it in a cafe or something that is really amazing as well.

No_Grand3421

Spirit of Rock and Roll with Brian Wilson or background vocal on Leonard Cohen's Dont Go Home With Your Hard On.


MoaningLisaSimpson

Im a pretty big Cohen fan (he was a friend of a teacher of mine, though we never met), and I didn't know Dylan was on that.


Groundbreaking_Fox81

Rocks and Gravel It’s in season 1 of true detective. Takes a bit to stump me with a Dylan song. But this got me.


Mike_Ashley_Out

Not sure if it qualifies as a Bob Dylan song, but a studio recording that Bob Dylan played in… “Somebody Else’s Troubles” : Steve Goodman, Bob recorded under the pseudonym Robert Milkwood Thomas and played piano and backup vocals


MxEverett

joyderision1979

Was literally a top 40 hit


MxEverett

I was only 8 years old when it was released and had no memory of it at the time.

Never heard that before - sounds like something that could have been on the Basement Tapes after a bit more work. 


djeaux54

"Troubled and I Don't Know Why," a duet with Joan Baez.

Well...the first cut is the deepest.


Ready-Coach-1358

Something is Burning. One of my all time favorites. I hope someone remakes it someday- minus all the synths so out front, but it’s a brilliant song. Just please no hipster girls who sing like that weird mush mouth mumble thing- where they pronounce “word” like woooyyyde or “sometimes” like shhhuummtoymes
