During his recent appearance on the Nov. 24 episode of the Rolling Stone Music Now podcast, Simon Cowell was asked whether "unconventional" voices like those of Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Frank Ocean would make it through the audition process on American Idol.
“When I heard Bob Dylan’s version of that Adele song, ‘Make You Feel My Love,' I didn’t know he wrote the song. I think if he’d walked in and sang that version, I’m not gonna lie, I would’ve gone, ‘Forget it.' Seriously. Because I didn’t even know he wrote the song, when I heard his version, I was like, ‘Whoa’. I just don’t think that would have been a great audition.”
Simon Cowell once said Bob Dylan 'bored him to tears'
These most recent slams weren't Cowell's first public criticisms of Dylan, as Far Out reported; in 2007, he said Dylan's music “bored him to tears."
While Cowell is of course entitled to his opinion, it's safe to say there are many who vehemently disagree: Dylan's most-streamed song on Spotify, Knockin' on Heaven's Door, has been streamed over 700 million times.
