"Tangled Up in Blue" is a song by Bob Dylan.
It appeared on his album Blood on the Tracks in 1975.
Released as a single, it reached #31 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Rolling Stone ranked it #68 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Lyrics

"Tangled Up in Blue" is one of the clearest examples of Dylan's attempts to write "multi-dimensional" songs which defied a fixed notion of time and space.
Dylan was influenced by his recent study of painting and the Cubist school of artists, who sought to incorporate multiple perspectives within a single plane of view.
As Neil McCormick remarked in 2003: "A truly extraordinary epic of the personal, an unreliable narrative carved out of shifting memories like a five-and-a-half-minute musical Proust."
In a 1978 interview Dylan explained this style of songwriting: "What's different about it is that there's a code in the lyrics, and there's also no sense of time.
There's no respect for it. You've got yesterday, today and tomorrow all in the same room, and there's very little you can't imagine not happening"

Dylan continually re-worked the lyrics even after the album was released; the version on his live album Real Live (and throughout the '84 Europe tour) has radically different lyrics.
In the first studio version (NYC sessions, September '74) and often in live performances he has sung some of the verses from a third-person perspective (usually "he was laying in bed," but sometimes even "she was laying in bed"), as opposed to the first-person point of view in the Blood on the Tracks version.
Dylan has said that the version recorded in the 1984 Real Live album is the best.

Mike McClure,
Half Japanese,

In the Hootie & the Blowfish song "Only Wanna Be with You", Darius Rucker sings that he is "tangled up in blue". "Yeah I'm tangled up in blue / Only wanna be with you / You can call me your fool / Only wanna be with you " The reference extends a string of mentions of Bob Dylan in the song, beginning at the start of the second verse: "Putting on a little Dylan ...". The song's rhythm itself seems to be inspired by Dylan's original track.

The alternative rock band, Queens of the Stone Age, make a play on "Tangled Up in Blue" with their song, "Tangled up in Plaid", from their album Lullabies to Paralyze. Aside from the similarity of its title, the Queens of the Stone Age song has no real relation to "Tangled Up in Blue".

The band Cameo described the song as 'definitive' in their musical development and frequently opened concerts with a funk version of the song. Barb Jungr and Louis Durra have recorded jazz versions.

The Belgian TV-host Bart Peeters, who is also a singer-songwriter, made a Dutch version of the song. The lyrics are modified by him, and as a result he tells a more personal story about how he met his wife. The Dutch title is "Prachtig in het blauw". ([looking] beautiful in blue)

Texas Country artist Hayes Carll includes the lyics " You was openly frustrated / you said Dylan's overrated / while singing Tangled Up In Blue " in his 2011 song "Another Like You".

The song is a playable track on Rock Band 2, as the most difficult song in the vocal section, and the final song for the player to complete in the "Impossible Vocal Challenge".

Science fiction author Joan D. Vinge published Tangled Up in Blue in 2000[4] as the fourth book in her Hugo Award winning "Snow Queen" trilogy.

A female artist named Sami quotes the lines, "We'll meet again someday on the avenue/tangled up in blue" in Michael Corrigan's book, These Precious Hours.
