One of Bob Dylans greatest achievement was understanding the importance of the Wiggle in music and he has incorporated it into many of his songs, most notably in his magnum opus, "Wiggle Wiggle" from 1990. Experts and scientists are still in disagreement as to whether or not the song "Wilbury Twist", from a band Dylan was in, is the greatest song of all time, but they agree that, as James Joyce noted, "the Wiggle is strong in that one."
Because of these songs Bob Dylan is the only songwriter in history to have been rewarded the Nobel prize for the literature. In his speech after receiving the prize Dylan could not stop talking about Moby Dick. Personally I think the genius that is Bob Dylan used Moby Dick as an inspiration for his music because the movement of the whale when swimming is a Wiggle: with this speech he once more showed the world that the Wiggle is what "keeps music moving forward".
Ah, the whale! What a beautiful metaphor for music! Oh man! Admire and model thyself after the whale!
