My song today is ‘Blowing in The Wind’. ‘Blowing in the Wind' was released in 1963 and sung by Bob Dylan. Although it has been described as a protest song, it poses a series of rhetorical questions about peace, war, and freedom. The refrain "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind" has been described as impenetrably ambiguous. Either the answer is so obvious it is right in your face, or the answer is as intangible as the wind. In 1994 the song was inducted into the 'Grammy Hall of Fame'. I have always regarded Bob Dylan as being as much a poet as a singer and songwriter; he was undoubtedly the foremost troubadour of the 1960s, bringing awareness to the youth of his age.
Love and peace.
