"Knockin' on Heaven's Door"
Another song picked out of "unfinished" pile, mainly because I knew I could do it well, it wouldn't take long, and it would complement "Watchtower."
Digression: I like GNR's versions, but it's probably less "good" and more "so bad it's good", mainly for how much it ignores tghe whole point of the song (of course i've done that, to a not as good song). They took a song about a man literally on his dying breath and tried to play it as fun and triumphant, and it just doesn't work if you actually listen to the lyrics for ten seconds.
More movies: this cover was conceived as the song that plays during the sad part of the movie. Or maybe the credits (not all my ideas are all that brainulated).Then I saw I'm Not There (of course, Dylan's original was written for a movie, too).
Like Hallelujah, this was keyed down five steps from it's original key (here from g to d)
