We're going to take a stab and guess that this isn't actually Dylan doing a very folksy cover of the popular-even-though-it-shouldn't-be tween hit. Comments on the video back this up.

But then again, perhaps in his older age (Dylan turns 70 on May 24) he decided catering to his grandchildren was exactly what he needs to spark his career back into stardom.
