I am an 80s child. Listening to songs that came before my time creates a special feeling inside me. It's like a time machine bringing me to a different time, a time my parents grew up in, for a short while.
I had an employee that I had to pick up at work everyday. He is a very humble old man, who worked for me as a heavy equipment operator. His machine seemed to be dancing ballet instead of moving dirt, the best operator I had the grace to work with. Back then, I had a Bob Dylan cd in my car and whenever this song played, he would cry copiously, even without understanding a single word once he is Brazilian. One doesn’t need to understand the lyrics to feel touched by this song. My dear old friend is very ill right now, struggling for his life… Listening to this, has made me reminisce about the good times we’ve spent together, not just as work mates but as genuine friends
We had a teacher at Waltoffer Avenue Elementary School (Bellmore, NY) who sang this at just about every student assembly. Very progressive, even for a Republican Congressional district in 1972.
Man you folks used to have time to do anything in class huh. These days it's all about test scores and students get no breathing room for life and culture
paul w Rambling Jack Eliot, Odetta, The Carter family, Lead Belly, Hank Williams, Blind Willie Mctell, Pete Seeger, Robert Johnson, Tommy Johnson. Dylan is coming right out of the roots of true American music. At this point this was his own style, he learned from the greats like all greats do. Changed popular music forever and he combined Rock N Roll and literature to make a whole new style of music never done before. Won a Nobel Prize and didn’t show up to receive it. One of the greatest poets of our time. Brought the poetry of the surrealist into Rock N Roll and folk. He’s still writing songs to this day that have a cultural impact.
maybe in my generation now only a few people like music like this. I am very happy even though I am only part of those few. thank you Mr. bob dylan, this is very good music with lyrics that make sense
키아라 The URL of this youtube video. And btw all you have to do is type : "Blowin in the wind dylan" into the search bar of youtube and you get this video
This song was played at Paul Pastore's funeral June 1973. Paul I will never forget you on how you were more of a big brother to me than my own. Until we meet again ! Paul I tried to have Dylan dedicate this song to you when he played at "Capital' in Portchester, but I failed. I will keep trying. Love Bob
+Buick Le Sabre In those days, a musician didn't get a slot to perform on national television unless they were growing in popularity. I saw Dylan play in 1962 in NYC. This was one of his first songs that I learned to play on guitar in 1963, before Peter, Paul and Mary made it a popular civil rights song.
+Buick Le Sabre You said Dylan wasn't good enough until the Beatles? I'm not sure what you mean. Please clarify. I was around in that era too but very young. I did not discover Dylan until about 10 years later. Within a year of arriving in NYC Dylan was signed to Columbia Records by the legendary John Hammond. There is no doubt the Beatles had an influence on Dylan as Dylan had a HUGE influence on the Beatles. (from the Atlantic) Though The Beatles stayed fairly up to date on popular music in the early 1960s, Bob Dylan wasn't on their radar until the spring of 1964, a full year after The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan established the young songwriter as American folk music's premier voice. Once the band heard that record, during a tour of France, it had an immediate impact on them. "For three weeks in Paris, we didn't stop playing it," Lennon would later say. "We all went potty about Dylan."www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/09/bob-dylan-and-john-lennons-weird-one-sided-relationship/262680/
Nufot Dylsn snf The Beatles played for different audiences; Dylan emerging in the U.S. with a record contract in '62, playing for the folk/college crowd. The Beatles had their US contract in very late '63/early '64, playing to mostly teens. You, Sir, are misinformed.
@xalluex bro: Yes, it is extremely shameful that people Dylan's age when he wrote this are so gullible and low information that they support BLM, which has burned down Black businesses and tries to convince Black folks and other POC that they are eternal victims. It's also shameful that Critical Race Theory is accepted by the Loving Liberals, which is really reverse racism.
It sure is relevant today: One must blow with the wind if one is to survive. A lot of peeps miss the underlying message of the lyrics: This song advises folks to be like the wind in approaching life. In other words, one must be like Captain Louis Renault in the 1942 movie Casablanca: Renault: "I have no conviction, if that's what you mean. I blow with the wind, and the prevailing wind happens to be from Vichy."
@@lemurianchick So what should they read then to inform people of the way racism operates if critical race theory is reverse racism and harmful to promote?
This was my dad's favorite song. So when he took his life in 1982, we found a random person to play this at his funeral. I was a teenager at that time, and I always thought of blowing wind as something positive and still do even with tears in my eyes. The wind is constant and brings renewal. Never give up because what might blow in will be holding the key. Peace along this journey called life.
Im 34 yrs old and known of Dylan my whole life and just now during quarantine have I really listened to him. Bob Dylan is music for the broken man trying to find his way home.
Listend to him since I was a about 10 I'm now 64 I introduced my beloved husband last year and so many Bob Dylan songs and lyrics we've listened to over the years mean so much lots of love to true bob Dylan fans xxx
My late mother was 2 when this was recorded and she loved her some Bob Dylan, I never understood why. She's been dead for 13 years and I'm 41 now and this dude is still rocking. I finally get it mom. Rip moma, I miss you. Rock on Bob you old strange old bastard! ✌😁
I remember back in the late 1960s/early 1970s when I was little... we had "Folk Masses" in the Catholic Church. Some young people with an acoustic guitar or two... Blowin' In The Wind got everyone of every age singing together. It's such a wonderful memory. Thanks Bob
I remember the nuns singing this to us in the cafeteria in elementary school...I think I was in 2nd or 3rd grade...in the early 70s...it's a lovely memory....my little Catholic school was a refuge for a while...Sister Bernadette in 1st grade and Sister Monica in 2nd grade created an atmosphere of love and peace that helped me greatly. Thank you...I hope that your souls are shining with joy.
+Paul Nery i think Bob has not written any book to make a litrature, Rabindranath Tagore wrote many and specifically his Gitanjali made him won it. and i m glad that nobel academy considered Bob.
Bob Dylan doesn't sing a song simply. He roars meaningful messages to the world, containing philosophic ones sometimes. So his songs pull my ears and shake my mind.
+Buick Le Sabre Come to think of it, I remember you wrote your comment about 3 months ago. You wrote "Few people know that " Blowing In The Wind " means in fact " Farting in the Wind ". Is that right? I responded to yours. Don't you remember mine? I looked for it. But mine was eliminated. I don't know why it was eliminated. It's really weird.I write my response of that time to yours once again. "That can be. I mean business. Truth is anytime and anywhere. It is limitless. It is really near or around us. It can be found in farting or pissing or shitting or anything. The important thing is that most common people, foolish, try to discover it far away." Now Do you remember it? Period!
+Buck Le Sabre That might happen. My response really might disappear in the wind or fart or shit. Anyway, I wrote my response to your comment whether you didn't even look it. But my answer was not a joke. I was serious about it cos I thought your joke stood to reason. Anything can happen in the world. Infinite Universe, not defined! Truth is anywhere and anytime, not far away. That's the way the ball bounces.
Pls don’t associate Dylan with the boring and ignorant people who refuse to listen to modern music because of some false assumption that art has worsened as time has gone on. Dylan is my favourite artist of all time but they are countless great modern artists making music in 2020. You just have to be willing to find them, as is true with any point in history.
I don't know about the voice. But for any other artist, this comment might be a compliment. But for Dylan, this is just discourteous and demeaning to even compare him with the trash that is promoted as music today...he's a nobel prize winner for heaven's sake!! Let's keep a sense of proportion
'I'm x years old and listen to Bob Dylan'.. Great music transcends age. Those who don't appreciate Bob Dylan are either those who have not yet listened, or those that do not wish to hear.
I remember listening to this song in 1965 when I was a little boy, asking my mother what the lyrics meant. Even as a child, the song left quite an impression on me with it's stark simplicity and universal message. "Abraham, Martin, and John" was another such song. When I think of how far popular music has fallen since then, I could cry.
The summer of “63” as a six-year old I would accompany my mother to the fields for harvesting. There the workers, listening to the radio would sing along to Dylan. This is the first song I learned, and the message is still as strong as ever.
If you think music has fallen far from this, you haven’t listened to the right music. BD will always one of the og greats, but there’s plenty of modern singer songwriters who are right there on his level. Only reason you would disagree is because you wouldn’t give it the time of day. ‘Don’t criticize what you can’t understand’ was literally written for people thinking like ^ this. Just another take, Much love and respect, truly!! 🧡
@@mr.n7132 The thing is you see this exact comment on most songs older than 40 years, it's like seeing the same add for the 100th time, it gets annoying.
My grandad used to play the Harmonica and he used to play so well. He passed away three years back and I believe he's watching over us from above, because he was a saint! Rest in peace grandpa, we all love and miss you.
Some of the best music ever created is heavy music, and many of the greatest songs ever include vulgar language. Jimi Hendrix, Black Sabbath, Tupac, Nirvana, Behemoth, Frank Zappa, etc.
Lords of Acid did all of that, yet dancing in the rain, under strobe light, to "The Crablouse" during their show at Nautica in Cleveland in 1996 is one of my fondest musical memories.
Parabéns Dylan, o segundo músico a ganhar o Premio Nobel de Literatura e o primeiro em 103 anos. Rabindranath Tagore recebeu o título em 1913 e compôs mais de 2000 músicas e o hino nacional da Índia.
+Janet_M The composition "Sri Lanka Matha" was written in 1940 by Ananda Samarakone. And it was on November 22, 1951 that this composition was adopted as the country's hymn. Tagore only influenced Ananda Samarokene to create a style of music appropriate for the people of Sri Lanka. (Tagore: composer of the national anthem of India / Samarakone: composer of the national anthem of Sri Lanka). And sorry, I do not write well in English, I'm Brazilian.
Tagore's songs became national anthems in both Bangladesh and India. Bangladesh: www.wikiwand.com/en/Amar_Sonar_Bangla India: www.wikiwand.com/en/Jana_Gana_Mana
When I first heard this song I was 13 yrs now at 71 it bring me back to a young black girl in New Orleans and it was in a Catholic Church small 3 young white boys but they never got to play again 😂 and I was sold on Bob Dylan and 6 yrs lately I was in the Bay Area living Berkeley ca His music was blasting all over the Baybring a smile to my face so much fun
known this song for over 10 years and only now find out that the *answer* is blowing in the wind, not the answer is *blowing in the wind* ... big difference.. something light and shallow into something deep
Music is the greatest form of art I've known. It has the ability to cut through the borders on the map, like they never existed. I love that about music.
Music is the greatest form of art I've known, and Bob Dylan has written and produced some amazing songs. Over the years he's shared some wonderful music with us, and I'm grateful for that. There should be no doubt, he's one of America's finest songwriters. Thank you Bob.
This remains basically untouchable. There are certain guys who are just without a doubt the best messengers in their genre. Here are a few of them who, in my opinion, are the greatest songwriters with a message that I have ever heard: Bob Dylan (Folk Rock) Bob Marley (Reggae) Tupac Shakur (Rap/Hip Hop) John Lennon (Pop Rock) Marvin Gaye (Doo-Wop) Johnny Cash (Country) Woody Guthrie (Folk) Tupac is my personal favorite.
I remember when I listen this song for the first time... I didn't know nothing about English, but the melody and the harmonic made me love it in that just moment and forever... I was 14th then...
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Wel'l. Brazil, as USA had hard politic moments... and both of them were very discussed lately, mainly Brazil... Now the things are normalizing.... No. I never had been in USA. I don't speak English. Only read and write because i don't understand more the spoken English. I have lost 50% my audition.
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Hello, Mark. I thank you, but I had some troubles with scammers on Internet and this is the reason I talk only in public pages. Sorry. Be fine.👋👋
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Thanks, my friend. If you want, you can see me in my You Tube channel. I am not artist, but I like to sing and I am learning to play accoustic guitar in order to play it while I am singing. Have a good night.🙏🙏🌻🌻🎶🎶😗😗
How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? How many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly Before they're forever banned? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind Yes, and how many years must a mountain exist Before it is washed to the sea? And how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head And pretend that he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind
I am so lucky to have lived during this Troubadour's life, luckier to have seen him live in a small 5000 seat intimate concert in the late 70's in Australia, (1978, Festival HALL, Queensland) ...& ...EVEN luckier to have actually shaken his hand!! ( I was in law enforcement security at the time)...I am truly blessed. *Bob kindly thanked us all for keeping him safe. during the tour. Such a gentile soul. I really wished we had iphones then!! I would have amazing pics...
This song is evergreen and will be alive forever, no matter how many views does this video have, it was relevant in 1900s, is relevant in 2000s, it will be relevant in 2100s also, mark my words
I was 20 when this came out. I worked in the upper village in Manhattan. I can relate. I was a baby on D-Day and I am lucky to be here writing this. Bob was right-on. AWESOME.
I was 10 years old when this song came out and mum and dad always had the wireless tuned to 3DB, what I later called OPS - (Old Peoples’ Songs!). When I was a few years older, when mum and dad went for a drive (Sunday afternoons), I’d stay home and change the station to 3XY! The times certainly are changin’! Loved the song then, still love it today but understand it now as an adult and not that dewy eyed girl of long ago.
The lyrics of this song are always alive, now Ukrania. I am from Venezuela and live in Venezuela, and always think about those who still turn their heads to pretend that they do not see and/or do not people cry. My late father used to play this song many many times, especially in every new year celebration. Now that I am 61 I wonder if there is something to celebrate. Great song, it means much much that just words.
My neighbor is from Venezuela. He helps me when I need help. I needed help on the phone when my Spanish is not sufficient. He is a good person. Bendigas a Usted.
What do you mean by saying "fals covers"? There are quite a many good covers of this. Actually this is a version too, of his own song, also very good. I, personally, like the recorded album version the best. It is also true that there are not very good "covers" out there too, but mostly those are amateurs expressing their admirations towards Bob's music. I do not believe "fals" is the right word to use to describe most covers. Bob Dylan himself has done many excellent covers of other musicians work before him - many of which made those earlier recordings available to a much wider public now and now for forever. The very meaning of folk music is carrying the torch from the past to the future, making it alive again and again, and adding to it new meanings. There can be some less successful steps, trials in this process - that is true - but that should not discourage anybody from wanting to contribute.
I'll be succinct: "False Covers" is a RUclips song proclaiming "BOB DYLAN!", but actually it's NOT BOB DYLAN. Or whoever you're looking for. "False Advertising" might be a better descriptor. ProTip: if Comments are disabled, it's never real.
Pretty sure Columbia (or whoever the fuck owns Columbia these days) made it impossible to upload any actual studio versions of his songs. At least any they can't make any revenue from. Imagine how much money Bob made that company.
2024 anyone?
Just was thinking one hour ago, this is why he deserves Nobel price... (all of a sudden)

None of that happened.
This song brings back memories that never happened.
Helloo! I covered this song in my channel and I really hope you like it!! See you!!! 😊
Naw they happened its encoded in your DNA dreams and all
This this
Wooooww❤
Only 20 years old when he wrote this song.
I was 2 1/2.
the answer is blowing the wind man
Max Power I think He wrote this song because he was 20 years old
You'd think this song was written by a 60 year old black man but was really written by a skinny white kid from Minnesota. Amazing.
Max Power Why is that amazing?
Many, many moons ago, my English teacher in junior high used to get his guitar and sing this song to us every Friday. RIP Mr. Stevenson 😔
We had a teacher at Waltoffer Avenue Elementary School (Bellmore, NY) who sang this at just about every student assembly. Very progressive, even for a Republican Congressional district in 1972.

But Dylan totally deserves it !!!!

man,.......
he write more of 30 books

He lived in my city. I wished I had appreciated Bob Dylan more than I did back in 1963. He is one of, if not the most prolific poets of our lifetime.

i hope we have a folk revival in america soon, people are gonna get tired of computerized music eventually, your soul can feel these things.
The return of vinyl is a start. ;)
turn back time...

true
me too bless you
so so so so much is needed for s al o heal before we go to war! please start now!
What amazes me is that, this song was written 53 years ago, but it is still modern.
What amazes me is that A Hard Rain was written more than five decades ago and yet is even more relevant today.
How many times shall the biafrans die before the world can hear.
... and relevant!
Thiago Silva This song is & always will be a golden oldie :)
yes, this song still carries a lot of weight. Changed from man to a student and people to students and it is a rally cry for good causes.
The words of this song can explain the situation in the world nowadays…
It's the end of May of 2021...And I can still feel it's depth...As people will even a century later...❤️❤️❤️
If we are listening in 2020,than our taste of music is still good.
Or we are slaves to RUclips recommendations.
Pls don’t associate Dylan with the boring and ignorant people who refuse to listen to modern music because of some false assumption that art has worsened as time has gone on. Dylan is my favourite artist of all time but they are countless great modern artists making music in 2020. You just have to be willing to find them, as is true with any point in history.
You're a man of culture
Helloo! I covered this song in my channel and I really hope you like it!! See you!!! 😊
2021
Congratulations! Nobel prize in literature - awesome!
Literature whaaaaaaaahaaaaaaahaaaaaaaa
No autotune
No nudity
No vulgarity
Pure voice
Masterpiece lyrics
Yeah mind is blown in the air !!!
I don't know about the voice. But for any other artist, this comment might be a compliment. But for Dylan, this is just discourteous and demeaning to even compare him with the trash that is promoted as music today...he's a nobel prize winner for heaven's sake!! Let's keep a sense of proportion
shut up dork, just enjoy it
For this he got a Novel!
if this is how you judge music you're completely missing the point of it
@@jakem5795 everyone's way of judging may be different but the main point is that i enjoy and vibe with this Song
'I'm x years old and listen to Bob Dylan'.. Great music transcends age. Those who don't appreciate Bob Dylan are either those who have not yet listened, or those that do not wish to hear.
Poetry and music at its finest...possibly the most influential musician of our time...
How many ears must one man have before to hear people cry ?
Very DEEP and MEANINGFUL phrase
I remember listening to this song in 1965 when I was a little boy, asking my mother what the lyrics meant. Even as a child, the song left quite an impression on me with it's stark simplicity and universal message. "Abraham, Martin, and John" was another such song. When I think of how far popular music has fallen since then, I could cry.
The summer of “63” as a six-year old I would accompany my mother to the fields for harvesting. There the workers, listening to the radio would sing along to Dylan. This is the first song I learned, and the message is still as strong as ever.
-Lincon Lennon & Luther
@@auggie803 Not Lennon, but John F. Kennedy. John Lennon was still alive when the song was written.
What did your mother say?
If you think music has fallen far from this, you haven’t listened to the right music. BD will always one of the og greats, but there’s plenty of modern singer songwriters who are right there on his level. Only reason you would disagree is because you wouldn’t give it the time of day. ‘Don’t criticize what you can’t understand’ was literally written for people thinking like ^ this. Just another take, Much love and respect, truly!! 🧡
2021 and still listening this masterpiece
Nobody fucking cares

My grandad used to play the Harmonica and he used to play so well. He passed away three years back and I believe he's watching over us from above, because he was a saint! Rest in peace grandpa, we all love and miss you.
Music touches our heart without vulgar language, without nudity, without heavy music..... Just voice, a voice is enough to win our hearts ❤️
Those should be lyrics brother, I believe you can find the song in that feeling.
Some of the best music ever created is heavy music, and many of the greatest songs ever include vulgar language. Jimi Hendrix, Black Sabbath, Tupac, Nirvana, Behemoth, Frank Zappa, etc.
Lords of Acid did all of that, yet dancing in the rain, under strobe light, to "The Crablouse" during their show at Nautica in Cleveland in 1996 is one of my fondest musical memories.
I'm now 84 and whenever I hear these classics by Bob Dylan my reaction is the same as when I was in my 20's... WOW.
Parabéns Dylan, o segundo músico a ganhar o Premio Nobel de Literatura e o primeiro em 103 anos. Rabindranath Tagore recebeu o título em 1913 e compôs mais de 2000 músicas e o hino nacional da Índia.
Luiz Henrique i didn't know this. thank you for letting us know.
Great information Luiz. Thank you for sharing this.
+Janet_M The composition "Sri Lanka Matha" was written in 1940 by Ananda Samarakone. And it was on November 22, 1951 that this composition was adopted as the country's hymn. Tagore only influenced Ananda Samarokene to create a style of music appropriate for the people of Sri Lanka. (Tagore: composer of the national anthem of India / Samarakone: composer of the national anthem of Sri Lanka). And sorry, I do not write well in English, I'm Brazilian.
Tagore's songs became national anthems in both Bangladesh and India.

Did you know Sam Cooke was inspired by this song to write 'a change is gonna come'
Ed Kaz! he admitted to selling his soul to the fall in dark one, for fame and $$$$$$$
May I see your documentation of this? Thanks. Satan
Ed Kaz! you can just Google it bob dylan saying on a documentary about selling his soul
OK I'm sure it's true Dawn. So it's a good thing. I'm converting to Satanism. Thanks for the tip!
When I first heard this song I was 13 yrs now at 71 it bring me back to a young black girl in New Orleans and it was in a Catholic Church small 3 young white boys but they never got to play again 😂 and I was sold on Bob Dylan and 6 yrs lately I was in the Bay Area living Berkeley ca His music was blasting all over the Baybring a smile to my face so much fun
Hello 👋🏼 how's your day going so far??
I love him, can't help it. Peace to you, Bob.
that is without a doubt one of the greatest and most well written songs ever
One of my all time favorite songs! Bob Dylan is a true inspiration!
I’m 1 year old ans i listen to this !
known this song for over 10 years and only now find out that
the *answer* is blowing in the wind, not
the answer is *blowing in the wind* ... big difference..
something light and shallow into something deep
If you're listening at the end of 2020, you're amazing you know the meaning of music..
Look at the lyrics and that simple music
Huge respect 😇
The music is great. I only wish that something would have changed for the better after all these years.
Summer 2023, still listening ❤️
It's so beautiful, it's so deep, and sadly it's still a question that applies to today
This is not a song - this is the philosophy of life.
Ingenuine lyrics.
Congratulations from Russia... Nobel prize... great!
Music is the greatest form of art I've known. It has the ability to cut through the borders on the map, like they never existed. I love that about music.
cerra el orto comunista del Putin
congratulations man
agreed
Mariano Petra putin is not a Communist
Music is the greatest form of art I've known, and Bob Dylan has written and produced some amazing songs. Over the years he's shared some wonderful music with us, and I'm grateful for that. There should be no doubt, he's one of America's finest songwriters. Thank you Bob.
fishinsolitude Kant once said "Music is the quickening art." -And I think Bob Dylan is one of the greatest poets to ever live.
This remains basically untouchable. There are certain guys who are just without a doubt the best messengers in their genre. Here are a few of them who, in my opinion, are the greatest songwriters with a message that I have ever heard:
Bob Dylan (Folk Rock)
Bob Marley (Reggae)
Tupac Shakur (Rap/Hip Hop)
John Lennon (Pop Rock)
Marvin Gaye (Doo-Wop)
Johnny Cash (Country)
Woody Guthrie (Folk)
Tupac is my personal favorite.
Paul McCartney ( Pop Rock)
I remember when I listen this song for the first time... I didn't know nothing about English, but the melody and the harmonic made me love it in that just moment and forever... I was 14th then...
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Hello, Mark. All right with me and I hope you are well too. Yes... I am a country girl...😃😃 still! I am from Brazil.
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Wel'l. Brazil, as USA had hard politic moments... and both of them were very discussed lately, mainly Brazil... Now the things are normalizing....
No. I never had been in USA. I don't speak English. Only read and write because i don't understand more the spoken English. I have lost 50% my audition.
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Hello, Mark. I thank you, but I had some troubles with scammers on Internet and this is the reason I talk only in public pages. Sorry. Be fine.👋👋
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Hello, Mark. I thank you very much and I wish you can be ever fine and happy.🌻🌻😗😗
@MarkClifford-gs6yu Thanks, my friend. If you want, you can see me in my You Tube channel. I am not artist, but I like to sing and I am learning to play accoustic guitar in order to play it while I am singing. Have a good night.🙏🙏🌻🌻🎶🎶😗😗
I’m 25 and I am in love with Bob Dylan because of my father. I will pass that down to my child one day.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
Yes, and how many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea?
And how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
Thank you!!!
you forgot how many ears
must one man have before he can hear the people cry

Chanson indémodable, interpréter a merveille. Mercy, monsieur DYLAN.😊
happy 75th birthday Dylan! may you stay forever young!
I am so lucky to have lived during this Troubadour's life, luckier to have seen him live in a small 5000 seat intimate concert in the late 70's in Australia, (1978, Festival HALL, Queensland) ...& ...EVEN luckier to have actually shaken his hand!! ( I was in law enforcement security at the time)...I am truly blessed. *Bob kindly thanked us all for keeping him safe. during the tour. Such a gentile soul. I really wished we had iphones then!! I would have amazing pics...
Man, that's hella of a good story!!! Do you have any other stories like that?
Helloo! I covered this song in my channel and I really hope you like it!! See you!!! 😊
Gentile? I thought he was Jewish?
@@dvddale111 maybe it's gentle
Definitely a Platinum comment nice this October 2021
This song is evergreen and will be alive forever, no matter how many views does this video have, it was relevant in 1900s, is relevant in 2000s, it will be relevant in 2100s also, mark my words
We're still here.. 59 years.... This is the quality and success of the song and art...
this historical song changed the mind of millions
the power of music
I was 20 when this came out. I worked in the upper village in Manhattan. I can relate. I was a baby on D-Day and I am lucky to be here writing this. Bob was right-on. AWESOME.
I'm so blessed to have heard this literally from the womb, my parents playing it before I was born. Walking into hope, still not giving up on us!!
These lyrics were required learning at my school in 1969. Thank you Bob Dylan.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Hello Catherine... how are you doing?
Genius!! Will we ever get to hear this sort of music with such amazing meaningful lyrics ever again?
This song is as relevant today as when it was written.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
I was 10 years old when this song came out and mum and dad always had the wireless tuned to 3DB, what I later called OPS - (Old Peoples’ Songs!). When I was a few years older, when mum and dad went for a drive (Sunday afternoons), I’d stay home and change the station to 3XY! The times certainly are changin’! Loved the song then, still love it today but understand it now as an adult and not that dewy eyed girl of long ago.
Hello 👋🏼 how's your day going so far??
.CONGRATULATIONS.....
ON YOUR NOBEL PRIZE FOR LITERATURE TODAY

ONE OF THE EARLIEST SONGS I LEARNT
.
The lyrics of this song are always alive, now Ukrania. I am from Venezuela and live in Venezuela, and always think about those who still turn their heads to pretend that they do not see and/or do not people cry.
My late father used to play this song many many times, especially in every new year celebration. Now that I am 61 I wonder if there is something to celebrate. Great song, it means much much that just words.
Venezuela & the EU are negotiating over an oil biz.
Thx to the Russians..
My neighbor is from Venezuela. He helps me when I need help. I needed help on the phone when my Spanish is not sufficient. He is a good person. Bendigas a Usted.
The good thing, about music, is that it is the voice of angels expressing.
Again listening seeing this man Bob Dylan with such an Urgent Classical song we can now all sing along.
But WILL we learn❗️💥
Thank youu Bob Dylan🌺❣️🌺
A rare talent, a poet for sure. A Shakespeare of music! 🎶🎵🎶🎉❤❤❤❤
Being a diehard fan of both Shakespeare and Dylan, I respect you immensely for this comment.
He was my idol at that time. I bought a guitar and a mouth-harmonica. Genial.
2024 june 1st. Still a classic after all these years
I am from new generation but I like his song the most. Bob dlyan if you are reading this don't worry you will be alive forever.❤️
The coolest Nobel prize winner! If that's not Poetry, I am a nun!
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here!
Greatest songwriter ever❤️❤️❤️
It is late 2023 now, an this is as relevant as ever today!
'22. Still wonderful am 66 now, never ceases to amaze me with his musical poetry 🇬🇧 uk
FINALLY! A version that's ACTUALLY by the man himself! :) I went through so much false covers while searching for this song.
What do you mean by saying "fals covers"? There are quite a many good covers of this. Actually this is a version too, of his own song, also very good. I, personally, like the recorded album version the best. It is also true that there are not very good "covers" out there too, but mostly those are amateurs expressing their admirations towards Bob's music. I do not believe "fals" is the right word to use to describe most covers. Bob Dylan himself has done many excellent covers of other musicians work before him - many of which made those earlier recordings available to a much wider public now and now for forever. The very meaning of folk music is carrying the torch from the past to the future, making it alive again and again, and adding to it new meanings. There can be some less successful steps, trials in this process - that is true - but that should not discourage anybody from wanting to contribute.
I'll be succinct:
"False Covers" is a RUclips song proclaiming "BOB DYLAN!", but actually it's NOT BOB DYLAN. Or whoever you're looking for.
"False Advertising" might be a better descriptor.
ProTip: if Comments are disabled, it's never real.
Pretty sure Columbia (or whoever the fuck owns Columbia these days) made it impossible to upload any actual studio versions of his songs. At least any they can't make any revenue from. Imagine how much money Bob made that company.
Wunderdchönes Lied
thats why you have to write "Song-Artist and LIVE!!!!"
When listening to Bobs lyrics I sometimes wonder is he truly one of us....Genius at such a young age...Truly a gift from the God
