Subterranean Homesick Blues was the first song I heard, and I remember thinking, "Wow, this is the best thing I've heard in months!"
I always liked that Rolling Stone proclaimed Like a Rolling Stoneas the greatest song of all time, and though I don't necessarily agree with their entire top 500, I wouldn't complain no matter how many times Bob Dylan appeared on it...

LOVE Bob Dylan. My boyfriend has to be his biggest fan. He has every cd, book, movie, knows everything about him. Its nuts. He really made me appreciate his lyrical writing ability. The man's a genius.
I am a big fan of Bob Dylan's earlier stuff, especially Freewheelin', Highway 61 Revisited and Bringing It All Back Home. My favourite song is Don't Think Twice, it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
I've only seen No Direction Home once (well, it is pretty long) but I learned so much more about him from it and even if you're not familiar with his music, you can still appreciate the film. I recommend it.
