Blowing in the wind....Bob Dylan turned 70

Bob Dylan 1963

Blowing in the Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they are forever banned
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
How many years must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind The answer is blowing in the wind

Dieses Lied machte Bob Dylan berühmt, war Begleiter meiner Jugend und hat leider auch nach 48 Jahren immer noch nichts von seiner Aktualität eingebüßt. Heute wurde Bob Dylan 70.-

This song made Bob Dylan famous, I sang it as a teenager and in my early twenties. And unfortunately the message of it hasn't lost none of its urgency. Today Bob Dylan turned 70.

Happy Birthday, Bob Dylan!
