What is like a stone?
One of the greatest rock songs of all time. With a simple organ riff, electric guitar, piano, tambourine and harmonica all perfectly balanced in the song. The song ran over six minutes, an incredible amount of time for a song in that period, with most being 2-4 minutes long. The authenticity in Dylan's voice (H-o-o-w does it feel?) is very well felt throughout. At one point, this song was six pages long, and Dylan cut it down to what it became. Rolling Stone Magazine voted this as the greatest rock song off all time, topping a list of 500. Dylan even said himself, "Stone's the best song I ever wrote."
Ahh...how does it feel? To be without a home? Like a complete unknown...Like a Rolling Stone...

Like a stone - what is it?
A song by the supergroup audioslave, argueably thier most well known song among audiences and generally a fan favorite along with "be yourself","show me how to live" and "cochise" by the band.
rumoured to be about the death of Layne Staley, however, lead singer chris cornell denied this saying "I wrote this long before his death". the true meaning is the idea of being isolated in a room, waiting for death to come, "like a stone", hence the title.
My favorite audioslave song is "like a stone"
