Released on July 20, 1965, "Like a Rolling Stone" went on to become one of Dylan's signature songs and is widely regarded as one of the greatest recordings ever made. But its origins were far different from what listeners ultimately heard, beginning as a stream of emotions Dylan poured onto the page during a pivotal moment in his career.
"It was 10 pages long. It wasn't called anything, just a rhythm thing on paper all about my steady hatred directed at some point that was honest," Dylan told the Saturday Evening Post in 1966. "In the end it wasn't hatred, it was telling someone something they didn't know, telling them they were lucky. Revenge, that's a better word. I had never thought of it as a song, until one day I was at the piano, and on the paper it was singing, "How does it feel?" in a slow motion pace – in the utmost of slow motion."
Regardless of how it came together, "Like a Rolling Stone" was a massive success for Dylan. It shot up to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 at the time and now, it's consistently ranked as one of the greatest songs of all time.
