Say It Ain’t So Dept: Bob Dylan Turns “Blowin’ In the Wind” Into Commercial

OK, Bob Dylan. We get that you don’t mind selling your songs every now and then. You’ve done spots for Victoria’s Secret. Apple. Cadillac. The Bank of Montreal. Meantime, life goes on outside all around us.

OK, Bob Dylan. We get that you don’t mind selling your songs every now and then. You’ve done spots for Victoria’s Secret. Apple. Cadillac. The Bank of Montreal. Meantime, life goes on outside all around us.

But “Blowin’ In the Wind?” Is nothing sacred?

You know what? Don’t answer that.

Dylan has allowed his 1963 civil rights anthem to be used in a commercial in the U.K. for the British Co-Operative Group, a consumer-run business that represents, among other things, Britain’s largest funeral parlor and farming enterprises.

OK, so it least it isn’t ladies’ underwear.
