Artist: Bob Dylan

Duration: 03:53

When did you leave heaven ?
How could they let you go ?
How's every thing in heaven ?
I'd like to know.
Why did you trade heaven ?
For all these earthly things ?
Where on earth you hide halo ?
Where did you lose your wings ?
Have they missed you ?
Can you get back in ?
If I kiss you would it be a sin ?
I am only human but you are so divine.
When did you leave heaven angel mine ?

Here is what the maker of all this wrote: (a big thank you to him)
A LostChords compilation, 2006
"As for myself, I had nothing against pop songs [...] I loved songs like 'Without A Song', 'Ol' Man River', 'Stardust'
and hundreds of others"
Bob Dylan, Chronicles, p. 81
"Sinatra, Peggy Lee, yeah, I love all these people, but I tell you who I've really been listening to a lot lately -
in fact I'm thinking about recording one of his earlier songs - is Bing Crosby, I don't think you can find better
phrasing anywhere."
Bob Dylan, 1985 (Mikal Gilmore Interview)
This collection tries to show Bob Dylan's roots in Mainstream popular music, as opposed to Blues & Folk. I have included
covers - pre war Pop music, 50s ballads and crooner Country - as well as those of Dylan's own songs that are in one way
or another influenced by this music.
Two more volumes including covers like "Soon", "Answer Me", "More And More" as well as Dylan songs like "Floater",
"One More Night", "Tell Me that It Isn't True" etc. are in preparation.
Most of the information here is of course available elsewhere, I tried to put it all together in one place.
Many thanks to Stew in Scotland for creating the artwork!
