[quote=Anonymous]I think it's pretty easy to be an ignorant armchair critic without apparently knowing any of the basis on which the decision was made. The committee referenced the works of classical poets (like Homer and Sappho) whose works were likely performed to music, and the influence of similar lyrical poets on English poetry and literature traditions reaching back before Shakespeare's time. I'm not a Dylan fan at all, but his influence is certainly greater than many poet's, and to compare his lyrics to a hack like Kanye speaks more about your level of intelligence and discourse than it reflects on the committee.
