The legendary musician covered the classic “She’s Funny That Way”, originally a hit for Gene Austin in 1929, and later performed by Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole. Like the numerous female artists to have recorded the song, including Billie Holiday, Etta James and Liza Minnelli, Dylan altered the lyrics to sing “He’s Funny That Way” instead. Speaking about Dylan’s contribution to Universal Love, producer Rob Kaplan told The New York Times: “It wasn’t just ‘Yes, I’ll do this’. It was ‘Hey, I have an idea for a song.’” -Jack Shepherd >> >> > > > ROTFLMAO. > > I'm bettin' you're "funny that way" as well. You'd lose that bet, of course.
