The story behind the song

"Unbelievable" is an uptempo rock song from Bob Dylan's 1990 album Under the Red Sky. It's described as a driving rock number, lightweight but effective, built around a simple two-chord structure with a brief third chord. This straightforward approach allows the song's energy to take center stage. For a songwriter known for infusing folk music with sophisticated lyrical techniques and intellectualism, this song offers a different kind of experience. Playing it, you might feel the raw, direct power of a rock song, a departure from his more complex narratives.
