^^^ Was that Don Jr. I saw in the audience just before she started singing?

If you mean a guy at minute 8:20 ? That was NOT Don Jr...
He looks a bit like Don Jr. but he looks younger than Don Jr.

Lulu's version is ok but is not a patch on the Bowie and Nirvana versions. Which leads to very difficult choice. As a Bowie fan and Bowie was the original, I would give this one to Bowie but the Nirvana version has that je ne sais quoi that makes me opt for the Nirvana version. In actual fact the je ne sais quoi is Curt Cobain's ethereal performance, easy with hindsight but when I look at Corbain in that performance I see a troubled genius struggling with life.

Dynamite Hack is such a fun take on the song.

A classic Dylan song.
This is such a good song. Roxy Music wins it for me.

I just got Roxy Music's Greatest Hits album. Bringing back some memories.

Abba vs Erasure;
I really like the Erasure version of the video, Vince Clark was a good sport taking part in the video which was the only way the video would work. Andy Bell was of course enjoying. The song has a little section where there is a rap vocal and although it doesn't ruin the song, it is detrimental in my opinion. Maybe there is a version sans rap.
Abba edge it because of the rap vocal in the Erasure version otherwise it is a tie!
