In the week of the Nobel Prize presentation it is only appropriate that Song of the Week should come from a Nobel Prize winner. Unfortunately neither Einstein or Niels Bohr took to the recording studio (though Einstein loved Mozart and Bach) so here is the 2016 winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Bob Dylan. A controversial choice though Bob's Nobel lecture, taking in Buddy Holly, Dickens and Moby Dick, is well worth checking out.

So here is a song by Bob. Song of the Week was going to go for Shooting Star to complete the cosmological theme, but it is hidden behind premium access. So here is Tangled up in Blue, an even better song and, best of all, one that references "mathematicians." Bob and Roger, we salute you.
