This song is very dear to me. The unplugged session was released just before my father died. I was still a teenager. The music comforted me during the turmoil following my father's sudden passing and helped dealing with the loss. Part of the lyrics I placed on the newspaper obituary. I love the warmth, tenderness and simplicity. It's very hard to write a song like this.

That means Neil has been making music for 50+ years. I like karaoke and do so about every two weeks. Neil Young's Old Man, Harvest Moon and Heart of Gold are included. Yes, I can hit his notes LOL.

johnson; First, I know I doesn't have to call you johnson :) Second, I'm not 74, but a mere lad of 73 but my first thought of Neil go back to probably 1966 when the Mynah Birds with Neil and Rick James were part of the band rotation at my high school. Nobody knew of Rick then but Neil Young was a very big deal. So 50 +++++ years. Keep rocking!

Great reaction and analysis. It took a long time for Neil Young's voice to really grow on me, but once it did, I couldn't imagine a more perfect voice for his music. My favorite song of his is Don't Let It Bring You Down. I first discovered it via the cover that Annie Lennox recorded and I'll always love her version, but Neil's voice brings a fragility to an already haunting song that really elevates it to something special.

@emileconstance5851 2 жыл бұрын

So many to choose from, but my favorite is "Helpless"--gives me chills every time I hear it. Beautifully poetic lyrics, delivered in a way that is singularly Neil Young. Would love to hear a reaction to this one, because the vocals are so moving, and I'd love to know what it is that makes them so magical and evocative. Thanks for all you do, Beth!

@PatrickBrown924 2 жыл бұрын

There's a frailty to Neil Young's voice that's very appealing - he's not overpowering you with technique, it's very intimate. It might be quite difficult, but he's disguising it. My favourite Neil Young song is "Like a Hurricane" - one of the live versions, I don't think he'd finished it when he put it on record, and the version he does live is quite different to the one on the album.

@GregsWhiskyGuide 2 жыл бұрын

Ah, very nicely said, Patrick ! Love your definition of his style, indeed, it sounds relaxed but there is so much feeling & experience behind it...I also love "Like a Hurricane" on studio & in "Weld" live...Cheers from France !

Beth states this fact often in her videos: technique isn't everything. Certain voices just touch the heart immediately, even when technically there are flaws and quirks. Neil Young's tenor is so uniquely emotional. Such a lovely instrument in its own right.

My favorite Neil Young song is very specific. His acoustic recording of Cowgirl in the Sand from the live album: Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, 4-Way Street, turned me into a Neil Young fan at about age 13, and it's been the one I always go back to, ever since.

Hardly underrated. He is and has been huge for approximately 55 years with over 50 albums. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame in 1995. Recognised as a huge talent , with unique voice, and powerful writer, his wonderful 1970 album “After the Goldrush” is always to be found in the top 100 albums of all time and in 2014, the album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Rolling Stone was referring to the album as a "masterpiece” in 1975. He was regularly ask to induct artists into the “hall of fame” and one of the most memorable of those was the great Tom Waits. Well worth a watch. ‘Only love can break your heart’ is my all time favourite Young song. It always reminds me of my beautiful Rottweiler girl. Loved forever.

But the ones I've loved are Harvest Moon, Cinnamon Girl, and The Needle and the Damage Done. I hope More reactions by Neil are in store for the future. Love your shows Beth.

You know Neal sits forward and just can relax the vocal tract which allows him to bring out such a effortlessly unique but such a melodic vocal tract. I always loved Neil. Bob Dylan wasn't to happy with him as he thought Neal had a sound to much like him,especially like his song Old Man. He doesn't sound anything like Bob. He's always been a great artist and a great humanitarian. Farm aid case in point. He's just a really damn good artist.

Asking for a favourite Neil Young song is like asking what is your favourite cake. This song is very high up on the list for sure. I love how it is a song about “old” love. But it really depends on the mood. “Keep on Rocking in the Free World” is a favourite for sure. I was a young teenager when it came out. It was the first song the made me aware political action, music and the importance of carefully listening to lyrics. Especially Neil Young lyrics! That second verse makes me cry every time I hear it.

I had never heard harvest Moon before and when I heard it I just couldn't believe I had never heard the song before, it was incredible! I also loved Transformer Man and Pocahontas from this set. I think I read a few years later that one of the backing singers tragically passed away, I loved how they sounded so ethereal on Transformer Man.
