Legendary cultural and musical icon Bob Dylan has revealed something nobody has ever known before.

Giant music store HMV has a campaign right now called My Inspiration, in which artists reveal some of their favorite lyrics.  A song written by Scottish Poet Robert Burn’s, ‘A Red, Red Rose’,  has apparently had a huge effect on Bob’s life, more than any other.  Who would’ve thought, eh?

The director of the Centre For Burns Study at the University of Glasgow, Dr Gerard Carruthers, believes the song to be one of the most romantic ever.

Dylan has a new album coming out on Tuesday, October 7th, entitled ‘Tell Tale Signs’.
