"Turn Left onto Lonely Avenue" - Bob Dylan as Voice of GPS System?

The singer-songwriter discussed the possibility of his being featured as the voice of a GPS system. It was mentioned on his BBC Radio 6 Music Sunday show which was on the theme of street maps.

Renowned for his raspy, nasally tones, the 68-year-old American gave his listeners a taster of what his directions might sound like.

"Left at the next street. No, right. You know what? Just go straight."

He continued: "I probably shouldn't do it because whichever way I go, I always end up at one place - on Lonely Avenue. Luckily I'm not totally alone. Ray Charles beat me there."

  1. Bob might also have said, "Was this trip absolutely necessary?"
