When everybody loves you.... I know this Counting Crows song is a Bob Dylan reference to Dylan's "Mr Jones" song, as Bob Dylan's name is mentioned , but it sure sounds like an Indiana Jones song to me. With lines like "pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones", "Mr. Jones and me, staring at the video- when I look at the T.V., I want to see me staring back at me" Sounds like a guy in Indy gear watching Raiders. "Mr. Jones and me, stumble through the bario" reminds me of a drunken Indy walking around Cairo.----O.K., now I'm reaching-The Sean Connery 007 connection- In the song, Mr. Jones' "father plays guitar" Then, another song on the album is "In the Service of the Queen"...wasn't "In Her Majesty's Secret Service" a James Bond title?
