鮑勃 迪倫不僅僅是個民歌大師,他徹底改變了美國流行歌壇的“內(nèi)核”,自他開始,流行歌曲終于可以不止是唱唱愛情的了。這首歌曲是每一個學(xué)習(xí)吉他的青年的必經(jīng)之路。只有偉大的人物才能有這樣偉大的作品。
雖然「Blowing in the Wind」的時代背景是越戰(zhàn)時期的美國社會,但是這首歌的意境卻可以說是「放諸四海而皆準(zhǔn)」,同時始終深受世界各地人們的喜愛。當(dāng)東歐與中東各地戰(zhàn)火頻傳、當(dāng)國人為政府與某些民間企業(yè)的不當(dāng)措施采取激烈抗?fàn)幨侄蔚臅r候,總是令人不禁又想起這首歌曲。解決爭端的方法其實顯而易見,就像是飛揚在風(fēng)中一樣,只是有幾人肯去傾聽呢? 這首歌也在電影《阿甘正傳》中出現(xiàn)過。
