Jay Brannan - Blowin' In The Wind Lyrics






How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
And how many seas must the white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
And how many years must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

And how many times can a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
And how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
And how many deaths will it take 'til he knows that
Too many people have died?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

And how many years can a mountain exist
Before it falls to the sea?
And how many years must some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
And how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

    Where did you get that little purcussion instrument? My mate and I were just in Ghana, which is where he got his.The rhythms they get out of them there are extreme!

  29. J.... L....

    Beautifull!!

  30. n.... ....

    how neat! this is really cool, man! also, the guitar part to "unstable boy" is really, really good. i was going to post a comment there but i figured, you know, i'm already here. keep it up!

  31. J.... S....

    Actually, never mind about the advice - you're probably getting more advice than you want. Cheers.

  32. J.... S....

    I have been scouring YouTube for truly talented singer/songwriter types. I have found a few - but surprisingly few. You are one of the most talented. I hope that you continue to mature as a person and an artist. You are gifted and can potentially offer a lot to this world. For what it's worth, I feel I have some important advice for you. I will not post it here, though. I would be happy to communicate 'offline'.

  33. E.... B....

    SHUT UP... and Stop the SWEETIE... do you have any idea how annoying you are? Why shouldn't he sing this song? It's a beautiful song, with so much meaning behind it, and Jay, like all of use, is fighting his own war. Let him sing what he wants, and just Shut up... WEETIE

  58. X.... D....

    They say take something and make it yours, messed up words & all you may this song yours, awesome ! Thank you for allowing me the chance to hear it preformed by you.

  59. M.... ....

    Ok, Jay.. wear appropriate clothes while playing demos or singing of a new song. Your attitude is awesome, your voice is awesome, but your attire needs some dressing up. Do so - then definitely work on writing some lyrics. Why? You have an awesome voice, and talent, you just need the right lyrics right now. (PS - I am still waiting for Danny Boy).

  60. R.... J....

    Jay, that was absolutely gorgeous. I listened to it several times. Your voice is wonderful. thanks so much for sharing.

  61. D.... S....

    You should have more music with that instrument thingy.
    Your voice compliments it a lot!

  71. J.... V....

    great song!

  72. J.... M....

    True dat. And may the Lord Jesus shine His light into your life my brother, revealing to you His deepest love for you! Your music is just beautiful dude. Praise the Lord for giving you such a beautiful voice. I'll admit I'm jealous, haha. But its all good in the hood. God bless you and have a beautiful day!

  73. p.... ....

    Jay, you're awesome! That goes without saying. What are the chances of you singing "American Pie"? I think you would blow that out of the water.

  74. A.... M....

    i love bitch for introducing you to that thing, it is so simple and perfect.

  75. A.... M....

    hahaha have you seen his american idol video? that might answer your question...

  76. U.... ....

    Ehm in one of his songs he sang "American Idol : get the hell off my tv" , so I think he doesn't like this show!

  77. L.... ....

    hey jayyy i didn't know this video! and i love it!
    i imagine you've hidden your face because you wanted to be recognished as a musician more than as a fucking (i beg your pardon) beautiful man xD.
    (i don't know what you think but to me the joke is funny xD)...
    I STILL LOVE YOU JAY!!!

  78. A.... C....

    The answer is 42.
