Bob Dylan has shared his new acoustic ballad "I Contain Multitudes", his second release of the year.
"I Contain Multitudes" follows on from last month's 17-minute release "Murder Most Foul", which marked his first new single in eight years.
Dylan's latest effort is four-and-a-half-minutes-long, and sees him reference poet William Blake, Anne Frank, Indiana Jones, and The Rolling Stones when he sings, "I’m just like Anne Frank / And Indiana Jones / And them British bad boys the Rolling Stones."
The legendary singer/songwriter hasn't released an album of original songs since 2012's Tempest.
Bob Dylan's "I Contain Multitudes" single is out now.
