Well, it wasn't Hendrick's version of that song they heard. It was a cover.
But you also forget "This has all happened before, and it will happen again..." If that is literally true there's no way to tell, if we're using that song as a point of reference, when the song they heard was recorded. It could be 10,000 BC when they get to Earth because the song four of the Final Five heard was recorded on a previous loop.
Of course you could also say that the lyrics for the song we all know and love was actually passed down to Bob Dylan in some form. Perhaps it was handed to Dylan by some Colonial descendant. A kind of folk song if you will.
That way, the song could have been known before Dylan penned it because the song was a Colonial song from the beginning.
From what I remember about the song, the idea was that both Dylan and some unknown Colonial composer both pulled the song from some universal source common to both societies, at least according to Bear McCreary, who is the composer for the show. It's not intended to be radio waves from the 60's, but a connection on some fundamental level.
The writers actually admitted the general timeline they're in, but I'll not spoil that here - it's later then the 60's however. I imagine we're going to get an M. Night Shyamalan plot twist to straighten it all out.
In case anyone's interested, someone out there in the ether put together all of the recent spoiler clips together into one file. Fairly heavy reveals, not sure how long the link will last.
Please don't. I hates gettin told on to da Man.
Specially da White Man.
He scares me.
Yet somehow I feels like I needs him for sumthin.
It's simple enough. Get someone to tell you about something then get them to tell you it's been known by many for some time now.
Then you'll know something that has been around for awhile but you never heard of it.
I'm trying to follow you Kev, I really ams.
I'll just ruminate on it awhile and if anything strikes me that neither one of us has ever heard of before then you'll be the first to not know. Exceptin for me of course. I'll wanna be the really first to not know before I tell you about it.
Commenting on Dean's World is a privilege, not a right. Dean is your host, you are his guest, and you should behave in that fashion. Dean is not your babysitter, nor is he your punching bag. Please remember this. In general, you are free to disagree with anyone on any subject you wish, but abusive behavior will not be tolerated.
Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.
Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
Er, no, then how do you get transmissions from the 1960s?
Unless Hendricks is the last Cylon.

By the way, it's Hendrix, not Hendricks, and Bob Dylan recorded it first but he did say that Hendrix' version was the best.

That's a neat trick.
I wanna learn it...

But, if you want to be a grammar-nazi, and I think you do, perhaps I could have said, "... I never heard of it prior to now..."
I should tell Dean about you. He hates grammar-nazis.
Please don't. I hates gettin told on to da Man.
