34.  The Times They Are A-Changin' Bob Dylan. March 1965.
The title track of Dylans third album released in 1964, gave Dylan his first hit in the UK in March 1965. The sound was like nothing ever heard before by a British audience. Dylan's rasping voice and lazily strummed guitar interspersed by blasts of off key harmonica were deemed a rallying call for every would be bedsit troubadour.
Dylan had written more eloquently on the changing moods of the time, 'When My Sip Comes In' and injustice, 'The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll'. but 'The Times They Are A-Changing became a rallying call for 'disaffected youth' on both sides of the Atlantic.
A song from the watchmen soundtrack.
