How did Bob Dylan’s song differ from other protest songs of the era such as “Fortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival, “Ohio” by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, “Revolution” by the Beatles, or any others you may come across?

Bob Dylan was a recipient of several awards for him being a literary genius and how he has infused music with his lyric. Along with the talks of war, peace and youth of subjects on protest during his time as well as other equally famous bands/solo if not more, such as the Rolling Stones, Beatles, Creedence Water Revival and many others. Dylan's major difference was always his delivery and character of his music, how he has pronounced and wielded the words into his music was something you'd recognize even through ages, being able to be playful of the words very evident on one of his more famous songs, 'Like a Rolling Stone'.
