Why Mike Herz chose "Mama, You've Been On My Mind"
"My girlfriend and I listened to a few different versions of this song recently, from interesting covers to his live version with Joan Baez where they messed up and just sorta laughed it off. This song feels light and heavy at once mixed with Dylan's poetic wordplay. It was fun learning it and figuring out how I wanted to portray it."
