But, I usually turn the sound down or switch the station when he starts singing. His best stuff was done by others, and his cultural impact is more impressive than his ability to win my ears. I respect, but I could never idolize. That being said, I love Ronson. Deejays remixing classic (and not-so-classic) material is hardly “desecrating ‘sacred’ material.” If you want to witness true blasphemy, look for the new LUVS ads which depict shitting babies to a Beatles (cover) underscore. (shudder)

I didn’t care for it much, particularly since I really like the Dylan original, but I don’t find there really being anything offensive about it – not in a post-hiphop sonicscape that posits absolutely everything as being ripe for cannibalization.
