LONDON, June 1: Singer-songwriter Imelda May said she was overjoyed to learn that veteran singer Bob Dylan enjoys her work.
The 42-year-old songstress said she had no idea that the Nobel laureate is her fan, reported The Independent.
“I was absolutely thrilled, I can die and go to heaven now,” said May.
Recently, “The Times They Are A-Changin'” singer had posted an interview on his website to promote his own covers album, where he revealed that the Dublin-born rockabilly revivalist was among his current listening.
Like an ardent Dylan fan, May added, “He is a genius songwriter, lyricist, crafter. His mind is phenomenal and it makes me feel I must be going in the right direction. Being a songwriter is hugely important to me.” (PTI)
