Something is happening here but I don’t what it is… but there’s got to be a connection b.n the Counting Crow’s Mr. Jones and Bob Dylan’s Ballad of a Thin Man. I read what Adam said, but in Mr. Jones he says, “I wanna be Bob Dylan” and Dylan’s Thin Man is about a Mister Jones. What do ya think? Thanks!
