Bob Dylan Drops First New Song in Eight Years, And It's 17 Minutes Long!

Bob Dylan is back with new music for the first time in eight years and he has released his longest song ever!

The legendary musician dropped a song called “Murder Most Foul,” which has a running time of 16 minutes and 57 seconds. The track is about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

“Greetings to my fans and followers with gratitude for all your support and loyalty over the years. This is an unreleased song we recorded a while back that you might find interesting. Stay safe, stay observant and may God be with you,” Dylan said in a statement.

It’s unknown when the song was actually recorded and his rep confirmed to Variety that no other information about the track will be revealed.

Dylan sings in full detail about JFK‘s assassination, with lines like, “They blew off his head while he was still in the car,” and one from JFK‘s viewpoint, “Riding in the backseat next to my wife / And it’s straight on into the afterlife / I’m leaning to the left I got my head in her lap.”
