Favorite?

[IceAge/HeatWave]

who do you like best of the three?

and

other in case you all might find me limited, and i'd like to see your suggestions

[jbaseball44]

Dylan

[just.Starla.]

Conor, but I like Ben too.

[loganmmm]

If Bob Dylan doesnt dominate this poll, I give up.

[anamericangod]

Ben Gibbard.

I appreciate what Dylan did for music, but he was before my time and I have no attachment to his music.

[oface0315]

Max Bemis, because he's not included in this poll, doesnt really fit in this poll, but should/deserves to win anyway.

[adam289]

Bob Dylan

i like max. but in defense of the genre keeps him from being in this kinda company. that said, boy is one of my all time favorite albums

[Sgt. Pepper's]

Bob Dylan

[oface0315]

to argue your point, some people really liked idotg(me).

[Burn That Shit]

Can't say I've listened to very much Bob Dylan, but Conor Oberst is pretty good.

[jbaseball44]

You should get on that Dylan thing. Possibly the best song writer of all time (you could argue Lennon)

[ForeverDelayed]

All I have heard was Highway 61 Revisited and I loved it.What albums would you reccomend? He has so fucking many I don't know which ones are good.
Blonde on Blonde would be a good place to go next. Or perhaps Bringin' It All Back Home.

A lot of people like to start with "Blood on the Tracks" but you cannot go wrong with any of the following albums.

Another Side of Bob Dylan
Blonde on Blonde
Blood on the Tracks
Bob Dylan
Bringing It All Back Home
The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Nashville Skyline
The Times They Are A-Changin'

[IceAge/HeatWave]

I disagree I loved IDOTG. I think it is just as good as IARB.

i like the album. but i didn't think it was up to par with IARB. but, this is an opinion poll. so to each his own. i gave the other option for that very reason

[jbaseball44]

Thanks alot. I noticed all his albums are his early ones except for Blood on The Tracks. Are his later ones not that good and are any of them worth listening too? Also does his sound change from album to album? I wouldn't want to listen to a bunch of albums that sound the same
He went through a period where he put out albums that were not very good but most of his sixties stuff is gold. His sound changes over time, Highway 61 has a more electric sound then some of his early stuff. Once you get through those albums then just check out the remaining ones for yourself because i like a lot of his later songs but not full albums like his early work.

conor oberst

[I am Mick]

I'd say cash over dylan, but Dylan is best of those 3

[queenofcrouton]

Dylan.

[ihatecayte]

Ben Gibbard.

I appreciate what Dylan did for music, but he was before my time and I have no attachment to his music.
this. i lovelovelove gibbard.

[midtown4657]

jakob dylan always connected with me more. nothing against bob or anything, i'm just not too into it yet.

[callingallcars]

i would say that for my time i picked other and picked Dustin Kensrue solo stuff. although he openly admits that Dylan is one of his strongest influences. so if i had listened to dylan more id of picked him.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

i'm glad ben's doing well in this.

i think dylan has to be the best, cuz he covers so much ground. i always feel like conor tries to hard. ben might have some of the best writing ever written on paper. but i think he writes about relationships an overwheliming amount of the time. which don't get me wrong, is great. but dylan could write about anything.

Head says Bob Dylan, Heart says Ben Gibbard

[SoCoSquid4]

without dylan, oberst or gibbard wouldn't be where they are today...SO, bob dylan.

[TheZeroKid]

Ben Gibbard has made me feel things that I've never felt before in music, but I both respect and love Dylan and Oberst for what they do.

[peachycick321]

Bob and Conor ..... duet?

[Alex DiVincenzo]

From the choices, Dylan easily

[josiahh]

while i enjoy both Connor and Ben, Robert Zimmerman is easily one of the greatest songwriters to ever live and his body of work trounces both Oberst's and Gibbard's at this point and time and likely will for the rest of time.

[PoisonInMyVeins]

bob dylan is my absolute favorite songwriter of all time, and blonde on blonde is my absolute favorite album. conor and ben are great, but there's no way they will ever compare.

[PoisonInMyVeins]

Bob and Conor ..... duet?

conor would complain the entire time.

[notoaststereo]

tim kasher.

[Deadbolt01]

Dylan has just a bit too much of a country twang for me to enjoy it, Conor Oberst is amazing.

[leifstar]

Jesse Lacey. =P

[Ryzenfall]

Dylan is the cool.
I really enjoy Gibbard's lyrics.

Aaron Marsh can't really stand next to Dylan, but his lyrics have affected me consistently as well.

[SLoT]

Trace Cyrus for being a turd.

voted dylan

[map8705]

jakob dylan always connected with me more. nothing against bob or anything, i'm just not too into it yet.

Jakob Dylan is awesome! I think him and The Wallflowers are so under appreciated.

[my_plasticxyou]

Morrissey

[Tim Lincecum]

for a class i argued that Bob Dylan was the greatest musician of all time on the basis that he has influenced more artists and bands from a range of the Beatles, Hendrix, and Nirvana. I got an A and my teacher said I proved my thesis perfectly... so I chose Bob Dylan

[hf57]

i listen to bens music more, but dylan has just done so much for music i had to go with him.

[stereomouse]

elliott smith was better then all 3 of them

[Say Nothing]

This poll has been done, but I picked Gibbard. I love Dylan a ton, but I can relate much more to Gibbard

[guitarnick20]

Jeff Buckley, or if his voice is too good, Elliot Smith or if his voice is too good no one.

[ashesofapril234]

I went with Bob Dylan, his catalogues is way too strong and he's prolly my favorite singer-songwriter of all time. The only person who could compete is Neil Young, I'm surprised he's not on the list.

[SuNDaYSTaR]

Ben Gibbard.

I appreciate what Dylan did for music, but he was before my time and I have no attachment to his music.Same here. Plus I never really got into Conor.

[jawstheme]

Jeff Buckley

[ourskiesbleed]

motha fuckin ryan adams.

damn. i can't believe i forgot Shaky (Neil's nickname). the best acoustic performer ever. i think i'd take him over any of these three. for some reason he didn't come to mind when i was making this.


for anyone who's never listened to Neil:

go buy After the Goldrush. now!

[IceAge/HeatWave]

This poll has been done, but I picked Gibbard. I love Dylan a ton, but I can relate much more to Gibbard

when was it done?

[Say Nothing]

when was it done?
I few weeks back

[IceAge/HeatWave]

it would still be in the poll's section then. no one's done this. they mighta had one of those singers in another poll or something, but not this exact thread lol i've been on this sight religiously the past two months. i wouldn't have missed that
