Day 1-My Favorite Song: Knockin on Heaven's Door By: Bob Dylan
So Knocking on Heaven's Door by Bob Dylan has to be my favorite song. I guess you could say it is an interesting choice especially for someone my age but I grew up with this type of music my whole life. Bob Dylan wrote this song for the movie Pat Garret and Billy the Kid. It is being played as this sheriff is dying after being shot by Billy the Kid. This sheriff was pulled out of retirement when he really didn't want to, to help find Billy and it cost him his life. The song is just about the last few minutes of this man's life and it is really moving. His life has been centered around this badge and gun that has caused destruction and he asking God and his wife to take it away from him because the weight of his profession is finally leaving him. He is at heaven's door knocking at it to get in. I really want this song to be played at my funeral. Bob Dylan is an amazing songwriter and this is one of his masterpieces. I have 5 versions of this song in my iTunes all by different artists.
