Mixed-Up ConfusionBob Dylan

It’s a track that was released in Japan under the title “A Mix-Up of Confusion.” It’s very up-tempo and features a lot of Dylan-esque phrasing.
At the time, it reportedly wasn’t included on the album in the United States because it didn’t fit Bob Dylan’s image.
Mr. Tambourine ManBob Dylan

The quintessential Bob Dylan song you want to hear on a sleepless night was born in March 1965.
The dreamlike lyrics spun by the American artist, combined with the soothing interplay of acoustic guitar and harmonica, lull listeners into a reverie.
This piece symbolizes a turning point in his musical career as he moved from folk to rock.
While it contains elements of social critique, it also showcases his talent for more personal and introspective expression.
Included on the album “Bringing It All Back Home,” the song has been performed frequently at Dylan’s live shows and continues to be loved by many fans.
Not Dark YetBob Dylan

The title, when translated literally, would be “It’s Not Dark Yet” in Japanese.
When Dylan thought about his life ahead, he supposedly turned his inner struggle directly into song: “I know the future isn’t bright.
What should I do at times like this?”
Rainy Day WomenBob Dylan

The mysterious melody of dissonant chords used in the intro gives the song a sense of its era.
The lyrics, which rhyme as if they were a wordplay, reflect Bob Dylan’s character.
The laughter and cheerful vibe that pop in along the way make it a joy to listen to.
