I've always loved Neil Young's music, but the way it brings back hidden memories from decades long ago is truly something special. Listening to this version of Words right now just made me remember back when I was still a teen back in the late '70's, getting deliciously baked on Mother Nature's sweetest leaf and throwing a frisbee for hours in the park as Neil's music filled the air around us. Damn I miss those innocent days of my youth, but can't help smiling because of them, and all thanks to the one and only Neil Young.
I remember going to see this movie at a movie theater, down on The Drag, in Austin TX in 73. I was with a friend, it was the middle of the afternoon and we were the only two people in the theater. So about half way through the movie, my friend pulls out a big fat doobie and we smoked it, lol. I was scared shitless, but nothing happened and to this day, its still one of the memories of those days thats among my fondest memories. Thanks Doug.
Cool story. I was 12 in '73. I was a huge NY Harvest fan by then. I became aware of JTTP later on, but I don't remember when it was exactly.I think I saw it at a late night showing in my hometown of Beaumont. Same place I saw Rust Never Sleeps in '79.
The only thing I can't STAND about this song ( any version of it ) is that it ends ; it comes to an end .... I can't stand that !!!!! Absolutely hypnotic !!!!!
Got this for Xmas when it came out on vinyl as a teen and it is one epic masterpiece to savour when you have time to really get into it. Its a long Journey. This tune in particular is Haunting me since it came out but this version is something different.
Sometimes he makes me so happy and some days I cry..old memories his voice brings me to tears how I want those days back. The song ends and I'm ok again I love Neil
We my 3 siblings my mom loved Neil called him Uncle Neil for reasons I do not recall. I listened to this over and over. He did this live in Glatonsbury in 2009 I believe search for it it will make you stand up and really feel the guitar through your bones. This is awesome thanks for sharing
a great album when it came out I was 11 years old, I started loving it at 14, now I'm 63 and I listen to it all the time, his voice, his harmonica, his guitar begin to travel with my mind, that melody, sweet, like Neil's voice. Album Harvest is a masterpiece, songs Alabama, words, harvest❤❤❤❤❤❤🌈☮🌈☮
Neil is a visual story teller. The best. A perfectionist. This is why he is "great". Wat a lick! Makes the hair on my neck stand up. Very emotional piece. Simple but strong. Powerful yet restrained. Dynamic but musical. Just perfect. Just beautiful!!!!
Brividi! Suono sporco. Chitarra suonata con il cuore. Anima elettrica. Distorce il pensiero. Ti vidi in Italia nel '82. Fuoco intelligente. Rimani come un orma nei sensi. Neil sei ancora con me.
I shoulda gone to that concert with him. Thinking of a friend who I loved. Only a friend. He was a big Neil fan. Really funny how we love certain people in our lives with strange connections and for reasons we don’t know. This song reminds me of him, so much. Love to the Otherside,my friend. We’re all connected anyway. See ya✌️
I do not go out very often but a while back I heard that you were playing at the big day out so I went for it. Everyone sat together but I stood behind a fence right by the stage by myself. I could almost touch you. Incredible but did I imagine that on the last note that you looked at me and broke everyone of your strings and no I was neither drunk nor stoned Qué funny. Love you man may you and all around you be surrounded with joy and compassion.
This song creates deep emotions within me! Almost haunting! 😳 I was at a concert once. I was in the mush pit. I was so close to Neil. They finished a song. Silence. Neil spoke. What song do you want to hear next? Funny, there was this moment of total silence. I then yelled out Words!!!! He looked into the dark in my direction with that Scorpion look! 🫣 Sadly, he promptly played another song! 😱
Exactly. Reminds me of once when I faked my own death some years ago and disappeared to panama, apparently on account of having secretly squirrelled away funds once shared by myself and several business associates into Swiss accounts via Uganda, or some smaller African country.
In 76. Remembering walking into a house with 4 stoned out of their zone Him singing this song ..all i could do is Smile straight as lace...hahahahah 😅😅😅😅
Quelqu'un et quelqu'un étaient au bord de l'étang Someone and someone were down by the pond Vous cherchez quelque chose à planter dans la pelouse Looking for something to plant in the lawn Dans les champs, ils retournaient le sol Out in the fields they were turning the soil Je suis assis ici en espérant que cette eau va bouillir I'm sitting here hoping this water will boil Quand je regarde par la fenêtre et sur la route When I look through the window and out on the road Ils m'apportent des cadeaux et me disent bonjour They're bringing me presents and saying hello Chanter des mots, des mots entre les lignes de l'âge Singing words, words between the lines of age Des mots, des mots entre les lignes de l'âge Words, words between the lines of age Si j'étais un junkman vous vendant des voitures If I was a junkman selling you cars Laver vos fenêtres et faire briller vos étoiles Washing your windows and shining your stars Pensant que ton esprit était le mien dans un rêve Thinking your mind was my own in a dream Que vous demanderiez-vous et à quoi cela ressemblerait-il ? What would you wonder and how would it seem? Vivre dans les châteaux un peu à la fois Living in castles a bit at a time Le roi a commencé à rire et à parler en rimes The king started laughing and talking in rhyme Chanter des mots, des mots entre les lignes de l'âge Singing words, words between the lines of age Des mots, des mots entre les lignes de l'âge Words, words between the lines of age
In many aspects, this is my favorite all-time Neil Young song. Second is "Last Dance" off the "out-of-print" Time Fades Away LP . . . Honorable mention to "Last Trip to Tulsa."
Those are all great selections. Last Trip To Tulsa has always been one of my favs. I have Time FadesxAway and all those early albums on 70's vinyl. On The Beach, Tonight's The Night. All great music/ art.
Muy buena versión respecto a la original .Neil se explaya con los fraseos de guitarra tipo like hurricane o cortez cortez.me alegra haberla encontrado.
Probably the same line-up that's on Harvest, doncha think? I hear ya, maybe Dallas Taylor. I don't wanna go find the album and look it up 🤪 I was wundering.about the piano and guess it's probably Nils L. Ben Keith is he the pedal steel player. All of it great..... well maybe little too long MHO 🙃
Been listening to Neil Young since I was fourteen...now Im sixty eight.
Yes, kind of the same thing here. In about 1973, my older brother was listening to Harvest and that was that. Been a NY fan ever since.
@@dennismcginnis8701 My story too! Probably first heard NY around age 12.... now 66 and still amazed by him. Long may he run.
Same 69....listening with my cockatoo ,he doesn,t care that l suck.
I was lucky, had a brother that was 4 yrs older and into buying music. I'm 67. This is the last song I want to here.
No te canses nunca de escuchar a este genio

I saw it a midnight movie in 1974 we had more than one doobie. party on Garth

Check out the live version at
Red Rocks Colorado. On UA-cam.
The main riff is reminiscent of I Want You (She’s So Heavy) by the Beatles. Equally repetitive. Equally mesmerising.
The best Neil Young...
Never heard this version before. Simply amazing. I think we can call Neil a genius, don’t you?
absolutely !!

I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN NEW ORLEANS .... and I love NEIL YOUNG !!!!! THAT'S GENIUS BY ME !!!🌅🌅
started listening to Neil Young after watching him on BBC from 1971. still a big fan of his to this day
I am now 22 years old.
This Album needs to be Released on CD, Please Neil*******
Sometimes he makes me so happy and some days I cry..old memories his voice brings me to tears how I want those days back. The song ends and I'm ok again I love Neil

Agreed...😂
Brividi!
Suono sporco.
Chitarra suonata con il cuore.
Anima elettrica.
Distorce il pensiero.
Ti vidi in Italia nel '82.
Fuoco intelligente.
Rimani come un orma nei sensi.
Neil sei ancora con me.
I had and played the album in awe....no one else could relate, so I became part of the Fontebleu
Neil Young was my favorite folk rock singer at all times ! Love you Neil Young ❤
Best Neil jam ever someone and someone were down by the pond looking for something!!
DEFINITELY ONE OF EM !!!!!
In a good JAM , NEIL YOUNG IS SECOND TO NONE ...... and I am a southern boy !!!!!
Found it. Gold at the end of the rainbow 🌈
What were they looking for?
@@jacoBeasley97 frogs ?????
I forgot how good this song was, I'll be 68 in May
"Journey Through the Past remains the only 1970s Neil Young album yet to see an official CD reissue." By gawd, it's TIME to digitize this!
Precisely. Although it's an un-even mish-mash of bits and pieces, it's still an essential necessity for all NY collectors everywhere, and elsewhere!
maybe THAT cover has something to do with that tho !
I shoulda gone to that concert with him. Thinking of a friend who I loved. Only a friend. He was a big Neil fan.
Really funny how we love certain people in our lives with strange connections and for reasons we don’t know.

Love to the Otherside,my friend.
We’re all connected anyway. See ya✌️
like good wine this just gets better and better with each passing year tho......

Brezhnev time! Miracle...!
Neil young is American hero all his songs are very good and his voice he played intier sund track of movie western dead man.unbliveble
Nossa!! Excelente!! Parabéns pelo seu lindo trabalho!! Amoooo Neil 🥰🥰
Never quite understood how his mind could come up all the way to this level of rock yet this is gold !
What a strange song, even for NY. But I absolutely love it - one of my favorite NY songs. I love the way the piano just pushes through.
Bonsoir. Merci.
1972... Words..stunnin' chemical storm version !!!! .. time it was re-released, my 2LPs are tatty !!
It's recently a no-brainer! Meal is one of the best. Neil Young's one of the best.
ask a kid if they have ever heard of neil young and most likely they will say no, who's he. I then just shake my brain and think you poor kid.
WORDS MATTER 2023.
"Between the lines of age"..🌏🙏
Of course they do , but what REALLY MATTERS IS ACTIONS ....!!!!!
Feilds of growing greens birds in flight...Fresh Air ..there youll find me alone and not
I was probably 8 be 62 in a few months I love this song. 😢❤
I love the uneven rhythm!
I always love the journey...
Que de souvenir nostalgique . Merci 👍
Sou muito nostálgica...😊...adoro!!
He is the only artist that can make me feel so lost I never want to find found.
Exactly. Reminds me of once when I faked my own death some years ago and disappeared to panama, apparently on account of having secretly squirrelled away funds once shared by myself and several business associates into Swiss accounts via Uganda, or some smaller African country.
£2,333,312 apparently!!
Would like to die with Neil in my ears.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this
Nice Bright Flashes. 💞

He’s been political his whole career. What do you think Alabama is about?
Salmehrarrghtajt
He showed his true colors when he acted like a tantrum throwing baby over the Covid jab. He should really stick to music
All have opinions to be agreed or disagreed to. Let Neil be Neil.
I remember seeing this in the Ford City Cinemas on the Southside; back in the 70s 😊
Yeah.
