    Another great emotional song by Neil Young. This song expresses the pain of loss perfectly. What a great artist.

    Over the years some have knocked Neil's voice..I have always disagreed. No one I can recall has the same plaintive and emotionally impactful voice. You can literally feel the pain coming from him..Legends become such because they change us somehow....those goosebumps you feel when you hear this are that legacy.

      I've had the pleasure to see Neil play live 13 times. Every concert was beautiful. Never a bad performance. Maybe I'm a bit bias but that's ok. Neil is my favorite Canadian artist.

What happened time slipped away 35 years later living California wondering what happened to the world!? 🤯2020/2021 crazy! Helpless

      I was 14 years old from NY, we went and at the time my uncle said to me "this is your woodstock". A memory I will always cherish. That day everybody was one, it didn't matter which genre you followed. Simpler and crazier times back then. Would much rather be back in 85 then here now.
