It's been months since we last did a CSNY video and I am glad I can now finally listen to this album front to back. I never really got this far that much and I just realized tonight I'd never heard it. The live version is probably just a solo Neil Young show in 69, but I could be wrong. I didn't hear any of the other guys. Still awesome though! if you have ANY suggestions in general, leave them here. i might just pick it for a video this week :)
Have you done Teach Your Children yet? Jerry Garcia plays pedal steel on it, and did so in trade for Crosby and Nash helping the Dead on their harmony vocals they were working on for Workingman's Dead at the same time.
“Love To Burn” from ‘Ragged Glory’; Neil Young & Crazy Horse. Recorded in one take at Neil Young’s home studio. Legend is there was a moderate earthquake that they didn’t feel while they were playing. Thank you.
Sheeit, Lee. It took me near on seventy years discovering all this music. If I had to do it all in a year or two like you, my fucking head would explode with ecstasy. I can’t thank you enough for letting my musical life pass by before my eyes while I’m still alive.
When the pipe-organ starts playing on "Country Girl" the emotional level explodes! The soaring organ works perfectly with Young's raw & sweet voice. Then the organ comes back in at the culmination of the song. Yet, at the musical height, a wailing harmonica joins in too, and somehow takes the climax even higher. "Deja Vu" is one of the GREATEST albums ever. And it's even more powerful when listened to continuously, one song flowing into the next. While you're enjoying one song, you're also anticipating the next song. That ANTICIPATION is part of a "greatest" album like "Who's Next" and "Dark Side of the Moon".
I applaud your comment. Excellent observations. What I would add is that part when they begin to all sing in harmony, “if I could stand to see her crying…” and it culminates with, “will she join you then”. Those ascending, then soaring voices … and it has to be Stephen carrying that highest note. My God.
@@glenndespres5317 Hi Glenn, you said that perfectly. I didn't have room to get into the "Country Girl" lyrics, but that is yet another amazing aspect to this song. That whole "If I could stand to see her crying,,," section is so haunting, so painful, and those ascending voices is one of the most beautiful moments in music, setting the mood for the final lyrics with "Let Me Be Your Country Man", finishing the song on a positive and uplifting end. As much as I love every song on "Deja Vu", I am kind of always waiting until I can hear "Country Girl" yet again!
Wife here. I’m a huge Neil fan. First heard him at 12 yrs old and was hooked. My next Neil concert will be my 12th. He puts such feeling into his music like no other. Explore all his you won’t be sorry.
Every time I hear this album and particularly this song and "Helpless" I am instantly 18 again, transported to SW Quebec where I spent two weeks fishing the waters of Lake Kipawa with six of my closest friends in May 1986. We drove fifteen hours from Philly to get there and then had to be shuttled by boat for two hours to get to our camp (Turtle Camp). We stayed in two small shacks next to each other, with other shacks nearby and a canteen bar about fifty feet from us where they had a pool table, a juke box and not much else. It was always "Hey Claude, gimme a Blue (Labatt's Blue) and a shot of Wiser's (whisky). We had so much fun fishing, sitting around camp, drinking and shooting pool, laughing and telling stories, and listening to music and Deja Vu was always being played. Hearing this always puts a smile on my face and also makes me feel a little melancholic as well. Two of those guys died few years later, one of them being one of my great friends. Every time we're together and we hear these songs we instantly start talking about this trip, rehashing the same stories but still laughing our asses off as if it had just happened.
They were so different than any group of musicians before or since. They changed the world with their lyrics and beautiful harmonies. Glad you listened to this and shared your experience
Neil IS a treasure. I've loved him since Harvest came out. Deja Vu is part of my teen years and brings back lots of memories. Yes it's one of the best albums of all time. You definitely get him.
What a song. The duet with Stills is straight Buffalo Springfield, like the song itself, followed by the angelic choir which is all four together, orchestrated by a master.
This is my favorite album of all time. It takes me back in time quicker than any other vinyl. The soaring harmonies, the deep meaning words, all are more evocative of the times to me than anything else. Loved it, Lee, thanks for your appreciation of this masterpiece. Blessings all.
Always loved this song.. great to see it getting a reaction. When I heard the live version on a bootleg I couldn't believe it. You never hear it played live and here it's so fresh. CSNY shows always had sections where each member would play solo for a song or two, sometimes another would join in.
I was 19 in 79 when I first heard this album 😊 I am the hippie girl, born 10 years too late, but I have never lost the feeling ❤ I truly felt he wrote this song for me! Ha ha 😊 just so in love with him ❤❤❤
Lee! You know I’ve been waiting for this one from Deja Vu. This song is on a level all its own, IMHO. Hope you love it as much as I do and hope it rolls into Everybody I Love You??? Will it? It really picks you back up after the moodiness of Country Girl. Well, loved it anyway! And thanks for finding that Neil solo acoustic version. Never heard that before. Hat’s off to you!
Love this song! Every time I hear it, it stays with me for days and I just start singing it out of nowhere. In tribute to Dejavu, Lee should play “Everybody I Love You” even if it’s only 2 minutes long.
One of the greats on this album. Very Neil Young of course. The combination with the rest of the band is a killer. In fact, Neil's debut album (named "Neil Young") has the same atmosphere IMO
wow, this is such an underated and overlooked tune! Love Neil...and as mentioned, I love the way this song builds at the end, with the organ coming in, the timpanis, and Neil's harmonica blaring away. Love this tune
My favorite song on this album and that says a lot because every song is a banger. The production alone is stellar - Also in my top five of Neil Young written all time songs.
Is that Dallas Taylor adding tympani on top of his kit? Wow! What an effect. And Neil's harmonica cutting through that cathedral/pipe organ. The choice of instruments on this track is so tasteful, like their vocals. A+ recording.
You are absolutely correct in that this is easily one of the best albums ever produced, at any level. And I would also like to enjoin that comment with the following. Their first album was easily one of the best first albums ever produced, at any level. After being mesmerized by their first album, they then go and produce this as a follow-up. And when they toured on concert, they would be taking half the songs from their first album, and the other half songs, from the second album. And believe me, it's hard to describe how great their live concerts were, and I went to 3 of them.
Since your reviewing music from the 1960s-70s, you should check out some Kinks; I would recommend "Muswell Hillbillies" or "Sleepwalker." Both are favorites of mine. Also, check out Robbie Robertson's group The Band; their entire catalog is excellent.
You expressed it perfectly when you said that he has a way that makes your soul tremble! All of them together and this album are just cosmic, yes, one of the greatest albums ever! Never fails to raise you above the dull elements of earth and water 😊
When this first came out I basically sang the whole album all the time. I was singing this track while walking up the stairway in my co-ed dorm, and a girl from the country decided I was basically singing it to here, and she kinda threw herself at me...which I didn't particularly mind at the time :)
Deja Vu is the first album I ever bought. I was in middle school and I had heard that it was great, but none of the cuts were on Top 40 radio (KDES), which was all we had at the time out in the California desert near Coachella, but the cover looked so cool that I took a chance. You're going to love listening to this awesome disk end-to-end over and over, just as I did way back when.
Great hearing the acoustic version which I’d never heard before. I first saw CSNY in 1970 when I was 12. It was the tour they recorded their Live album “4-Way Street” from. And then I’ve seen them since, especially Neil, many times❤️.
Oooo...I actually preferred that solo live version better. The studio track had too much wall of sound going on for me. But I enjoyed hearing them back to back. Thanks, Lee!
Probably my favourite CSNY song. I generally prefer studio versions of songs but the live version was good and a little different too. Melancholy is right and have a few associated memories. Fortunate to see them in ‘74.
Neil Young has written many great songs. But, in my opinion, this suite of songs, is his GREATEST. I first heard it when it was new, and I have heard it many times since, and it never fails to move me emotionally. There is something so sad about it, that is at the same time strangely UPLIFTING. I hear desperation AND hope in it. And loneliness. The repeated "got to make you understand" near the end, is for me, a plea to connect...with SOMEONE. ANYONE. There is a similar theme, in "Lotta Love." If Neil wasn't a lonely man, in real life, he definitely knew how to tap into it, for song writing purposes.
These guys were one of the best groups ever but they also had great solo albums too Steven Stills David Crosby each had good albums you might try listening to David's album "If I could only remember my name " great songs the whole album peace😊
The second part of the song, Down Down Down, was not only an unreleased Buffalo Springfield track, it was also transmogrified into Broken Arrow (released on Buffalo Springfield Again), with all the massive production, orchestration, sound bytes, etc. So that's why it sounded familiar to you - you'd heard Broken Arrow when you reacted to the Buffalo Springfield compilation album.

When the surviving members of BS reunited and toured in 2010, they did a live version of Broken Arrow, and it was quite good - they did all the different sections pretty accurately, just with pared-down five-piece instrumentation.
I loved this song. I believe Gram Nash put Neil songs last or buried. No wonder Neil left the band. Neil also felt they didn’t utilize Stephen Stills enough and I agree.
Lush and not spare which made this unusual according to most and made him sort of downplay it resulting in it criminally being underplayed and underrated.
I often wish that they would've locked them in the studio for a few months so they could've made another album or two from this time period because it was lightning in a bottle for sure and as good as any of the Beatle albums in my opinion.
"Hey, 'It's better to burn out / than it is to rust': come meet your grandpa - 'They drop by to die / 'cause it's faster than sinking'!" The vocals on CG - Neil pairing with Stephen, mid-song; David and Graham with Neil; all of them, together: goosebumps, always and forever.
I'm a great fan of NY, but I have to say his contribution to this album is the weakest part of it. With the exception of Helpless, Stills and Crosby's compositions out gun him by a very high margin, I feel. Carry On and Deja Vu are so stunning they're hard to follow, and I don't think Young brought his best to the table.
It's been months since we last did a CSNY video and I am glad I can now finally listen to this album front to back. I never really got this far that much and I just realized tonight I'd never heard it. The live version is probably just a solo Neil Young show in 69, but I could be wrong.

My My, Hey Hey (Out Of The Blue) by Neil & crazy hors from the Album Rust Never Sleeps 😘
Hope you get to listen to the entire album at once, it's a experience you've got to have.
Have you done Teach Your Children yet? Jerry Garcia plays pedal steel on it, and did so in trade for Crosby and Nash helping the Dead on their harmony vocals they were working on for Workingman's Dead at the same time.

God, I love this group. God, I love this guy. God, I love you for getting into C S N & Y. God, I loved my youth.
We have much to be grateful for don’t we?
@glenndespres5317
Your mouth to God's ears.
🎼Neil Young has an unmistakable voice. Love the guy. He wrote the song Country Girl. Always have loved CSNY. Harmonies extraordinaire!
Wife here. I’m a huge Neil fan. First heard him at 12 yrs old and was hooked. My next Neil concert will be my 12th. He puts such feeling into his music like no other. Explore all his you won’t be sorry.
"DEJA VU" IS IN MY TOP 20 LIST OF FAVORITE ALBUMS.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
"EVERYBODY I LOVE YOU" IS ALSO ON "DEJA VU"
❤❤❤❤Neil Young❤❤❤❤
Mystically good
Man , is your review of this song, and this album on point. I think your spirit was around in 1970, somehow. You completely get it.
Thanks for that man. I appreciate it. I love this album so much
My favorite song on the album!
Every time I hear this album and particularly this song and "Helpless" I am instantly 18 again, transported to SW Quebec where I spent two weeks fishing the waters of Lake Kipawa with six of my closest friends in May 1986. We drove fifteen hours from Philly to get there and then had to be shuttled by boat for two hours to get to our camp (Turtle Camp). We stayed in two small shacks next to each other, with other shacks nearby and a canteen bar about fifty feet from us where they had a pool table, a juke box and not much else. It was always "Hey Claude, gimme a Blue (Labatt's Blue) and a shot of Wiser's (whisky). We had so much fun fishing, sitting around camp, drinking and shooting pool, laughing and telling stories, and listening to music and Deja Vu was always being played.

Every time we're together and we hear these songs we instantly start talking about this trip, rehashing the same stories but still laughing our asses off as if it had just happened.
The chord progression is one of the most sublime I’ve ever heard.
They were so different than any group of musicians before or since. They changed the world with their lyrics and beautiful harmonies. Glad you listened to this and shared your experience
can't go wrong with neil. his album harvest, and his gig with crazy horse and with csn&y he just rocks in the free world🌍🌎🌏
Neil IS a treasure. I've loved him since Harvest came out. Deja Vu is part of my teen years and brings back lots of memories. Yes it's one of the best albums of all time. You definitely get him.
From the greatest rock album of all-time.
Solo acoustic Neil! Just a man and his guitar!❤❤❤
Check out Neil Young, “ Live at Massey Hall”, if you want to hear him at his acoustic peak!
Joyous melancholy.
This is a superb finale to a superb album. I always enjoy singing aloud to the Country Girl refrain.
What a song. The duet with Stills is straight Buffalo Springfield, like the song itself, followed by the angelic choir which is all four together, orchestrated by a master.
Neil sings this one beautifully👍🏼❤
This is my favorite album of all time. It takes me back in time quicker than any other vinyl. The soaring harmonies, the deep meaning words, all are more evocative of the times to me than anything else. Loved it, Lee, thanks for your appreciation of this masterpiece. Blessings all.
Mine too!!
Music does have power over. Yes you should listen to music during stressful times actually all the time if you can.
I love this album too ❤ glad you enjoyed it as much as we all did back then.
CSN&Y were sooo damn Good! Great album ❤
Although I saw many concerts at Hoffeinz Pavillion back in the day, I never got to see Neil. Thanks. My current favorite NY song is "The Thrasher"
the studio version gives me goosebumps throughout. every time.
Love it! Love Neil!
One of my favorite songs written and performed by Neil with the magical vocal backings by his mates!
Always loved this song.. great to see it getting a reaction. When I heard the live version on a bootleg I couldn't believe it. You never hear it played live and here it's so fresh. CSNY shows always had sections where each member would play solo for a song or two, sometimes another would join in.
I have always absolutely loved this song-part of the sound track of college-so much great music
The studio track is much more emotional for me with all of the instrumentation but both versions rock. Thanks Lee.
I was 19 in 79 when I first heard this album 😊 I am the hippie girl, born 10 years too late, but I have never lost the feeling ❤ I truly felt he wrote this song for me! Ha ha 😊 just so in love with him ❤❤❤
Lee! You know I’ve been waiting for this one from Deja Vu. This song is on a level all its own, IMHO. Hope you love it as much as I do and hope it rolls into Everybody I Love You??? Will it? It really picks you back up after the moodiness of Country Girl.
Well, loved it anyway! And thanks for finding that Neil solo acoustic version. Never heard that before. Hat’s off to you!
I had already done that one actually, a while back so I couldn’t include it. I’m glad you enjoyed though! You know I love CSNY and just NY period
This is one of the all-time best albums of my youth. I had a bootleg 8-track copy of it.
Nailed it with the Springalo recognition/reference to Expecting to Fly.
This is Neil at his most Springalo best... E
I love that song and listen to it often so I better pick that up! lol
Love this song! Every time I hear it, it stays with me for days and I just start singing it out of nowhere. In tribute to Dejavu, Lee should play “Everybody I Love You” even if it’s only 2 minutes long.
That was terrific ... two versions.. enjoyed both
One of the greats on this album. Very Neil Young of course. The combination with the rest of the band is a killer. In fact, Neil's debut album (named "Neil Young") has the same atmosphere IMO
wow, this is such an underated and overlooked tune! Love Neil...and as mentioned, I love the way this song builds at the end, with the organ coming in, the timpanis, and Neil's harmonica blaring away. Love this tune
CSN&Y's "Southern Man" from 4 Way Street. Ridiculously great.
I saw them for the very first time on the 1970 tour that album came from. Which began my total devotion to all things Neil😂❤
My favorite song on this album and that says a lot because every song is a banger. The production alone is stellar - Also in my top five of Neil Young written all time songs.
Is that Dallas Taylor adding tympani on top of his kit? Wow! What an effect. And Neil's harmonica cutting through that cathedral/pipe organ. The choice of instruments on this track is so tasteful, like their vocals. A+ recording.
Wow. That second one is raw emotion. 😢
every song a masterpiece on this record

Too late to keep the change...too late to pay...got to make you understand...great stuff!!
This is one of my favorites of all time!

Like a comet streaking by in the sky…. This group and their first two albums are the things dreams are made of! I’m so glad I found them
@L33Reacts So am I man! You are awesome! Peace
It almost feels like final boss music. Favorite song on a no-skip classic album.
Dude that’s such a great way to put it. That’s exactly what this is
Thanks so much for reacting to this! Such a great CSNY deep cut, and I don't recall having seen any else react to this song.
Obscure song for most but you’ll love it-“Razor Love” from Neil’s Silver and Gold albums-about his kids
It is a special treat to hear live or solo versions, but the studio version of this would impress you much more. Maybe another time.
Carry on ... And .. De ja Vu ... And .. Long time gone ... Are some of the best.
When this first came out I basically sang the whole album all the time. I was singing this track while walking up the stairway in my co-ed dorm, and a girl from the country decided I was basically singing it to here, and she kinda threw herself at me...which I didn't particularly mind at the time :)
the dynamics of this song bring out a lot of emotion, thanks for playing! the organ, the harmonica, the change of pace!!!
Deja Vu is the first album I ever bought. I was in middle school and I had heard that it was great, but none of the cuts were on Top 40 radio (KDES), which was all we had at the time out in the California desert near Coachella, but the cover looked so cool that I took a chance.

Great comparison to "Expecting to Fly."
This album Deja Vu was my first 8-track tape cartidge, riding around in an Oldsmobile 442 playing this album was the best!
Thanks! I've never seen this demo before.
Great timing. I was just playing this on my guitar about 40 minutes ago.
Great hearing the acoustic version which I’d never heard before. I first saw CSNY in 1970 when I was 12. It was the tour they recorded their Live album “4-Way Street” from. And then I’ve seen them since, especially Neil, many times❤️.
Oooo...I actually preferred that solo live version better. The studio track had too much wall of sound going on for me. But I enjoyed hearing them back to back. Thanks, Lee!
Saw them somewhere around 15 years ago at the new amphitheater in Ridgefield WA.
Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere album is my favorite Neil L P I suppose, but that's kinda like picking a favorite kid.🕊💖🎸
This is in the top two for me from the album DejaVu.
Have seen Neil many times, but never CSN&Y. Damn.
I love you react to different versions!! love having a drummers perspective! thanks
I've loved these guys for what feels like all my life. Yet I never heard this live version. What a treat, thanks bro
Probably my favourite CSNY song. I generally prefer studio versions of songs but the live version was good and a little different too. Melancholy is right and have a few associated memories. Fortunate to see them in ‘74.
Neil Young has written many great songs. But, in my opinion, this suite of songs, is his GREATEST.

Deja Vu 😊😊
Great tune. Hello algorithm
Hello reply!
You need to check out the live version of Southern Cross. Incredible
These guys were one of the best groups ever but they also had great solo albums too Steven Stills David Crosby each had good albums you might try listening to David's album "If I could only remember my name " great songs the whole album peace😊
Great song, but it's got be time to take a deep deep dive into the man's music, yeah I'm talking 'Mr Stephen Stills ' !!!...
Neil Young’s voice is strangely beguiling to me.
For some reason, I associate this song and 4+20 together. Were they back to back on "Deja Vu"?
Yes.
You need to listen to to the studio version
For some reason, I associate this song with 4+20, like they're a combo. Did they play back to back on "DejaVu"?
Lee I’m pretty sure Neil sings the end of both versions in the same higher key❤
The second part of the song, Down Down Down, was not only an unreleased Buffalo Springfield track, it was also transmogrified into Broken Arrow (released on Buffalo Springfield Again), with all the massive production, orchestration, sound bytes, etc. So that's why it sounded familiar to you - you'd heard Broken Arrow when you reacted to the Buffalo Springfield compilation album. Personally, I prefer the original BS version of Down Down Down over Broken Arrow. To my ears, it's simpler and more effective than the overblown cut-and-paste production of Broken Arrow (OK Internet, that's my personal preference - let's not start a flame war over it). When the surviving members of BS reunited and toured in 2010, they did a live version of Broken Arrow, and it was quite good - they did all the different sections pretty accurately, just with pared-down five-piece instrumentation.
I loved this song. I believe Gram Nash put Neil songs last or buried. No wonder Neil left the band. Neil also felt they didn’t utilize Stephen Stills enough and I agree.
Lush and not spare which made this unusual according to most and made him sort of downplay it resulting in it criminally being underplayed and underrated.
I often wish that they would've locked them in the studio for a few months so they could've made another album or two from this time period because it was lightning in a bottle for sure and as good as any of the Beatle albums in my opinion.
Lightning in a bottle indeed… one of the best albums ever created in my opinion. It’s just banger after banger…. I love it so much now
Sounds like solo Neil. Steven helped on the original.
"Hey, 'It's better to burn out / than it is to rust': come meet your grandpa - 'They drop by to die / 'cause it's faster than sinking'!"
The vocals on CG - Neil pairing with Stephen, mid-song; David and Graham with Neil; all of them, together: goosebumps, always and forever.
Well at least you left the best song for last, that may not be a popular opinion but it's mine anyway.
I'm a great fan of NY, but I have to say his contribution to this album is the weakest part of it. With the exception of Helpless, Stills and Crosby's compositions out gun him by a very high margin, I feel. Carry On and Deja Vu are so stunning they're hard to follow, and I don't think Young brought his best to the table.
