Second of these kinds of lists I've found that's about Dylan.

Individual picks:
Mick Jagger: Desolation Row (1965)
Judy Collins: Bob Dylan’s Dream (1963)
Marianne Faithfull: It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue (1966)
Yola: Corrina, Corrina (1963)
Tom Jones: Blowin’ in the Wind (1962)
Lee Fields: Blowin’ in the Wind (1962)
Suzanne Vega: A Hard Rain’s a-Gonna Fall (1963)
Gillian Welch: Ballad of a Thin Man (1965)
Wayne Coyne, the Flaming Lips: It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding) (1965)
Billy Bragg: Mr Tambourine Man (1965)
Meghan Remy, U.S. Girls: Changing of the Guards (1978)
Dan Bejar, Destroyer: The Groom’s Still Waiting at the Altar (1981)
Mike Scott, the Waterboys: Lonesome Day Blues (2001)
Eleanor Friedberger: I’ve Made Up My Mind to Give Myself to You (2020)

See, this is what's fun about finding lists for AM: even though we've seen a list of Bob Dylan songs like this before, this one only has ONE song more than one person voted for, multiple songs that weren't mentioned once on the SG list, and NOT ONE mention of Like a Rolling Stone, Subterranean Homesick Blues, or almost anything from the 1970s. Fascinating.
