Blowin' in the Wind

    "Blowin' in the Wind" is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962 and released as a single and on his album THE FREEWHEELIN' BOB DYLAN in 1963. 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".
    "Blowin' in the Wind" has been recorded by hundreds of other artists. The most commercially successful version is by folk music trio Peter, Paul and Mary, who released the song in June 1963, three weeks after THE FREEWHEELIN' BOB DYLAN was issued.
