I understand you. I've heard similar things many times. It's disappointing to see how certain Hispanic "musical exportations" sound lately, whereas much great music remains unknown outside the Spanish-speaking world. That's why we are trying to "spread the word" here.

They are Italian covers: Come Una Pietra Scalciata (Like a Rolling Stone) and Non Dirle Che Non E' Cosi'(If You See Her, Say Hello). I like the second one, but, in my opinion, the first one is a "cultural crime" that should be punished with ten years of forced labours in a Silvio Berlusconi's company.
Wanna listen to a good Spanish cover of Dylan? Memphis Blues. That is, Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again. By Kiko Veneno and Santiago Auserón (aka Juan Perro, ex-Radio Futura's vocalist and composer):
