Dylan,Cash and MacGowan – X-factor rejects?
I have recently been thinking about what would happen if Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash and Shane MacGowan appeared at an X-factor audition (putting aside, for a moment, the fact that Johnny Cash is in some heavenly choir and Shane MacGowan is otherwise detained enriching Dublin pub-owners).
Imagine the comments:
Johnny Cash: “Hopelessly flat” – Louis Walsh.
Bob Dylan: “Tuneless whining” – Simon Cowell.
Shane MacGowan: “Even attempting to be a pub singer is beyond you” – Simon Cowell.

The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
And no one's quite certain whose play it is

And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.
