It was only when a month later a copy was leaked to a new popular music club and heard by influential DJs that the song was put out as a single. Although radio stations were reluctant to play such a long track, "Like a Rolling Stone" reached number two in the US <i style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: none; box-sizing: border-box;">Billboard</i> charts (number one in <i style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: none; box-sizing: border-box;">Cashbox</i>) and became a worldwide hit.</span></p><p style="margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: none; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Critics have described the track as revolutionary in its combination of different musical elements, the youthful, cynical sound of Dylan's voice, and the directness of the question "How does it feel?" "Like a Rolling Stone" transformed Dylan's image from folk singer to rock star, and is considered one of the most influential compositions in postwar popular music. The song has been covered by numerous artists, from <a href="http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jimi_Hendrix_Experience" title="The Jimi Hendrix Experience" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;
