I guess if I didn't know the lyrics to most of his songs, I would say he sucked as a performer. But his lyrics pull something out in me.

Mick Jagger thought that Dylan had an amazing voice. I thought so too when Dylan was younger. Amazing. Now it's far from amazing, but there's something that stirs my emotions with his songs.

Kind of like Tom Waits, I guess. I don't think anyone would say that Waits has a good voice, or is an amazing performer...but Waits does it for me too.
