What it is
"Idiot Wind" is a song on Bob Dylan's 1975 album Blood on the Tracks, written in 1974 during his separation from his wife. It is an angry condemnation of a former partner that many listeners link to the end of his marriage, though Dylan denied it was autobiographical. In the final chorus the blame shifts so that the narrator counts himself among those at fault.
