Bob Dylan
“Blowin’ In The Wind”
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they’re forever banned?
The answer my friend is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
…………………………
Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can really see the sky?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

“Like A Rolling Stone”
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn’t you ?
People’d call, say, “Beware doll, you’re bound to fall”
You thought they were all kiddin’ you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin’ out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

Luar biasa. Bob Dylan sungguh legendaris yang sangat fenomenal. Ia menjadi inspirasi bahkan bagi The Beatles, Gun n Roses, dan sejumlah besar penyanyi hebat dalam waktu yang panjang, termasuk Iwan Fals. Lagu-lagunya banyak dilantunkan oleh penyanyi berkaliber, termasuk Avril dan Adelle.
