今天哼起了這首歌Blowing in the Wind, 有點哲學味道的一首歌 
時代的背景和問題可以是創作寫歌的好題材, 
像蕭煌奇的國民學校, 春花夢露, 都已做到關心到整個大環境的怪異現象
  
Blowing in the Wind, 這歌雖然是以美國越戰為背景, 對傳統觀念中
男子漢」的定義提出了質疑，希望世人能以和平而理性的態度來解決爭端,
不要再對世間的不幸視而不見、聽而不聞，更不要再讓無辜的人們繼續喪生
在戰火之中, 想想在面對現今中東戰火, 政治人物激烈紛爭時, 何嘗不也是這種心情呢 .   

How many roads must a man walk down

Before you call him a man

How many seas must the white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
Yes, and 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
 
Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it washed to the sea
Yes, 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 blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
 
Yes, and how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
Yes, and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
