But what about Miles? :lol:

No way, Dylan is the objective G.O.A.T.
Yes, Miles has a solid case, maybe Zappa too.
And of course there's Coltrane, he's already up there, give him 15 more years and it seems inevitable he would have eclipsed anyone - though if you are ready to go down the "what if" rabbit hole, you might start bringing up names like Hendrix.
Anyway, impossible to come up with a universal set of criteria to compare those legends - and rather irrelevant to be honest, let's enjoy what each of them did.

Well I agree, but I’m sure Scaruffi would have a criteria for this 🤣

I went "Paprika", wonderful song and probably the best from the album. "Murder Most Foul" is epic but doesn't hit quite like Dylan's similar-style songs from 50+ years ago.

Bob Dylan - until today I have not found any of his songs for my player.
And this long track is likely to be no exception.
However, I was patient and read the entire translation.
This death haunts, as a symbol of injustice.

Japanese Breakfast - I have a very prejudiced negative attitude.
But I will try my best to remain objective.
I consider it artificial, created according to the drawings in the design office.
The translation of the lyrics contains something confusing, a lot of common words, like during hypnosis.
I'm not interested in music that doesn't fit with the lyrics, in my opinion.
The vocals do not contain overtones, it seems that they were also made in silicon valley.
All this would be absolutely harmless if it did not take very high places in the ratings.

For me, this confrontation would be strange if it were not for its super relevance.
Two songs that I'll probably never hear again, but such an obvious choice.

I like the Dylan track, but it is awfully empty considering its length. I understand why many consider it a masterpiece. Paprika is one of my most played tracks since it came out. ends up being an easy vote for Paprika.

I love this Dylan track, but it's still no contest for me.

The first time I've heard Jubilee, though it was a rather ordinary and lifeless indie affair. Didn't give it another listen till November or December, and that's when Paprika caught me by surprise. Both the album and the opener quickly climbed on the lists of year's faves. The album gets better on every listen. The first 4-5 songs on Jubilee are all among my favourites of the year, nearly perfect run of tracks. The most uplifting of them being Paprika. It's my song of the year, no question, and if more of the album was upbeat like this or Be Sweet, Jubilee would be AOTY contender. The slower tracks generally don't match those first few bangers imo. So yeah, it gets my vote over a very good Dylan track.

I’d say Paprika is the most uplifting song in this whole tournament. I’ve gone in for repeat listens of both Japanese Brekkie songs this week. Forgot how much I like them.

Both songs were good but although the Bob Dylan track drags on (although it's made more interesting by the name dropping) I still prefer it a bit more to Paprika

It's crazy that Murder Most Foul is not only Dylan's longest song ever, but also his first ever song to go #1 (in his late 70's). Though I do not enjoy the song and it could have been reduced to 4 minutes at max. But Paprika is memorable for how much I utterly dislike pretty much everything about that song sooo... Dylan gets my vote.

Paprika is really good and I was sorry to vote against it. I find Murder Most Foul a masterpiece though, so I stuck with it. Hope y’all don’t mind 16 mins plus of His Bobness!
