You ever see these lyrics ? Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

@mfpurpuramusic3234 2 жыл бұрын

I am a singer/guitar player who performed this, and other songs in a duo sometime in the mid 80's in NSB, Florida at a Tex mex place. We finished a set and saw Neil Young sitting there eating, and listening, and applauding. He was in town to visit his mom who lived there and was sick. My duo partner insisted on going to Neil's table to tell him what fans we were and how much he influenced our music. I didn't want to bother him, but we did. Neil was the most kind, polite, and friendly person. He thanked us for the good music and tolerated us. His music is vast and beautiful, and he is still at it. A music legend, and really nice guy!

Truth …”just an artist with their voice and guitar, …” This is called talent. So few ‘artists’ of today can hold a crowd with their talent alone … instead they rely on costume, visual/sound effects, dance, support musicians to carry them. There was so much talent 50 years ago, but sadly it is very rare these days.

For younger people who don't know who Neil Young is, I'm glad when they discover him. Neil Young is one of the greatest singer songwriters who came out of the 60s-70s. He also rocks with a band he calls Crazy Horse. But Neil's most famous singing companions were Crosby Stills and Nash. They sang together so much that the band became known as Crosby Stills Nash and Young. For Neil Young songs (more like OLD MAN), I recommend Needle and the Damage Done and Heart of Gold. But Neil has a deep and rich catalog. He is still making music btw.

His Southern Man is an iconic song. It's "controversial" and a funny history to the song, being critical about Southerners. Then Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote Sweet Home Alabama giving Neil crap for being critical about the South. I'm a Southerner and don't care one way or another but Neil did apologize years later saying it was stupid what he was saying about the SOUTHERN MAN. They actually respect each other.

Neil Young, Harry Chapin, Billy Joel, etc. are all from that era and all pull at the heart strings.

I have an interesting perspective on this. I listened to Neil Young when I was in my 20s and now with my 70th birthday in November of this year I am the old man. You are absolutely correct when you say that if an artist can be stripped down to the most basic levels and still show extraordinary talent they are the ones that will last. Neil Young is still performing.

Neil Young is another Canadian icon. The "Harvest" album was on our playlist for years in my youth. Check out "Man Needs a Maid" if you want something heartbreaking. The studio did a weird arrangement on the album, with Tubular Bells and a full orchestra, but there's a live version - possibly from the same performance as this one - where he plays the piano. "Helpless" is a song he did with Crosby, Still and Nash, that speaks directly to my heart, having grown up in Ontario myself. It's funny to think back to Neil's acoustic days, because they didn't last long. He did a lot of great stuff with his band Crazy Horse.

If you enjoyed Neil Young , suggest you add Lobo to your list as well. Try starting with Lobo's song - I'd Love You To Want Me.

This is my favorite style of music to listen to, and you should start reacting to Ray LaMontagne and enjoy the pureness of his talent. Jolene is my favorite of his (acoustic version) and trouble. But he has so many good songs

Try listening to 'The Needle and the damage done" from this same session. Amazing. PS This session was done in England, which is why he felt the need to explain what a ranch and ranch hand is. Also, during this session, he has a harmonica hanging on his neck. Neil Young is legendary. For a romantic sound for you both, I would recommend "Harvest moon". Light some candles, have a glass of wine, and get ready to slow dance. Peace.

This such an enchanting song. Singer/songwriters hold a specisl place in my heart. Simon&Garfunkel, Joni Mitchell's "BLUE"(Female Friday!!!), James Taylor, Yusuf Islam aka Cat Stevens, Carly Simon and sooooo many more!🥰late 60s to mid 70s was full of these fantastic people.

Neil Young is a Canadian legend, and there is no end to the amazing songs he has recorded. Would strongly recommend Alabama, Southern Man, or Ohio for his political side, Cortez the Killer, Down by the River or Cowgirl in the Sand for his guitar insanity, or Helpless, After the Goldrush, Harvest, and a million more others for more of his softer side. He has so much gold in his catalogue. Glad you liked him!
