Bob Dylan is a famous singer/songwriter and came to fame in the 60s. He is known for his very well known and influential song lyrics and also unique sounding voice. His song, "Blowin' in the Wind" was one of his more exceptional songs. He was deeply intuitive to the worlds struggles in this song. He sang lines such as, "how many times can a man turn his head?", "how many ears must one man have?" and "how many deaths will it take til he knows?". Bob Dylan is stressing the fact that the world is in disaster and it is only going to get so much worse that one day, you will wake up and regret not making a difference earlier. He is claiming it is only a matter of time until someone should stand up for what is right. He is protesting racism, war, peace and freedom. The song has a soothing and calm approach to it but is also pretty sad when you clearly listen to the message behind the lyrics.
