Neil Young is a national treasure. So many memories of listening to his music even in my childhood. A lover of music, but no one makes me feel as much as Neil does. Epic tune! A favorite for sure! ❤🙌
yeah, sadly he went nutso in later years with all his never-Trump political rhetoric, but he helped me through my teenage years early 1970's so I just dial it back and remember those days. Got to give him credit for that.
Thank you Canada, because a world without Neil Young would be a colder, harsher and much more dismal place, indeed! I've loved Neil's music since the '70's and will until I'm ashes, dust and someone's memory. And even after all that (hehe). But right now, the fact that UA-cam had the stones to place a damn commercial ad right in the middle of this epic song makes this tune even sadder.
My funeral will go on for many many weeks because I want his entire catalogue played. He's so special. Almost not of this world. An angel. My angel. Our angel 💛
Yes, screw you-tube for that annoying commercial. Also, you are so correct with the rest. No one can even come close to the quantity AND quality of music that he has released in the last SIXTY years. I'm retired now, and have tickets to see them in Phoenix in April. C'mon Neil! Ten more albums, PLEASE!
I was in line at the Jewel in Chicago about 15 years ago when this came on the grocery store radio...NO JOKE! I looked at my Dad, who was with me and we both began singing! ❤😢
They are only "Words,' but Neil Young manages to capture more than just life. It is a feeling, a being, an experience, that one must travel through on life's journeys.
This "is" his best song. Emotional, moody (thanks Toronto!), unpretentious, lovely, driving, story telling magic. Thanks Neil. Thank you for yr "ongoing" honesty!
A jewel of a tune from old Neil on this version of Words from his best album to date, who would of thought that this once clean cut boy from Northern Ontario Canada with a shaky voice at the best of times could transform himself into one of the greatest songwriting / performers ever. Neil you are a Canadian national treasure for sure.
Mesmerizing His voice is pure gold. He is unique. No one else sounds like him. This is one of my favorites. He expresses pure emotion. Helpless. He expresses the pain of loss perfectly. What a great artist. Thanks Neil Young.
This is the song that got me hooked on Neil as a teenager, secretly listening to "Harvest" on my brother's hi fi. Decades later, I'm still returning to it, and it's fresh as ever.
I'm sixty nine ! Je revois les routes de campagnes qui slaloment au milieu des prairies vertes, des petites maisons au bord du chemin. Assis sur une chaise, un vieillard appuie sa tête sur le dessus de ses mains qui enveloppent le pommeau de sa canne. Rêve-t-il de son passé ? Écoute et sens le vent te pousser, les odeurs t'envelopper et tes amis t'aimer. Tel un enfant qui refuse de descendre le toboggan, mes pieds et mes mains ne suffisent pas à me retenir. La pente est trop forte et je finirai par toucher le sol. Les petites maisons sont devenues des tours, la rivière n'a plus de poisson, les prairies n'ont plus de fleurs ni d'insectes. Le vieillard et ses souvenirs sont partis. La nuit tombe sur le chemin, le vent est devenu froid et les odeurs sont agressives. Mes amis m'aiment-ils encore ?
Damn, I LOVE this song! Jack Nietzke (sp?) on piano, and the late Ben Keith on steel guitar. Great, great lyrics. And I just love the way the piano plays right on through.
"Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom to one man seems nonsense to another." Hermann Hesse, in Siddhartha (1922).
Agreed. Another of his that affects me this way is "Ramada Inn." This is so beautiful, I love the way the piano, pedal steel, and lead guitar all trade places.
The silver lining to the Neil Young library being dropped by Spotify, was discovering this version of a true gem. The soul in his music always draws out my most guarded emotions and this rendition is his opus for me. Thank you.

@LAR - your analysis here is pretty much Spot On.. As is so often the case, ones lifelong dreams often fall short in reality.. But it's more about the cycle of life that is misplaced along the way.. Every peak is followed by descent, and I think that Neil Young understands that more than any other singer-songwriter of the era.. He speaks to Everyone, but his Music is far more complex.. It's curious, unusual, profound, and yet engaging.. You have to keep listening, and listening again, until his lyrics are firmly cemented in your head.. This is why Great Music and Great Art endure.. These words, and these images, hold different meanings for Everyone who hears them, or sees them.. Everyone is on their own journey, and once an Artist releases a new piece of work, well, they no longer Own that work.. It now belongs to the Masses, to the Public.. And that is what makes Great Art so Powerful.. Everyone is able to take from it what they Need.. All of those things that stir our Emotions are layered somewhere in that great piece of work.. And I know that Neil has always been aware of that power.. It's been the force behind his unusual songwriting style, his fragile vocal delivery, and certainly in his guitarwork.. What else is there to say... Great Art and Great Music is what keeps us Alive... Lary
Thank-You for creating this.... My dad & mom had the Harvest album in there record collection.... a epic album as is.... but "Words (between the lines of age)" was always my absolute favorite Neil Young song ever.... however this version was not on that record..... i lived my whole life & never heard this version until today.... i am eternally grateful.... ha ha.... wow....wow....wow.... My mind is officially blown into oblivion baby....
Interesting, the part where Neil stops the song and gives instructions to the band on how he wants the refrain being played, which can be heard on the original 1972 double LP (Journey through the Past) has been completely edited out and in a very clever way. This happens at approximately 2:52, the only trace of something going on at this point is the fact that in this mix they play the refrain only once instead of twice.
My favorite song as a musician my self I appreciate other artists Neil young I owe many music good times memories along on the journey was Neil inspiration gifts words Neil
Somehow, this one meshes together musical and lyrical themes from some of Neil's best songs, going back to Buffalo Springfield, and comes up with a timeless ageless classic. Yeah--one of his greatest tracks for sure. Thanks for putting it here.

He wrote this when Carrie's relatives were visiting and as relatives do they talk and to Neil it was just Words...so listen to the lyrics, he describes exactly what was going on that day and moment. btw--why hasnt he written a song yet about the plight of the Canadian Truckers and their Freedom Stance? He wrote Ohio, and Lets Roll--but nothing for Canadian working class?
Because the truckers and their freedom stance is bullshit, lol. Neil Young is pretty clearly on the side of people vaccinating for the greater good of society. Did you miss the whole Joe Rogan thing?
You think Young should write about a bunch of Qspirators who refuse to do anything to help society stop a deadly pandemic that has killed over 6 million people world wide? When the reason he left Spotify was because of the spread of deadly misinformation which is exactly what the Frydumb Trucksters were doing.
When my daughter was 3 or 4 she'd walk around the house in her princess dress singing Neil melodies she knew by heart. Damn how I miss those days.
Cute word picture
Yes, that is a wonderful visual. Thanks for sharing it!
Neil Young is a national treasure. So many memories of listening to his music even in my childhood. A lover of music, but no one makes me feel as much as Neil does.

Words, Cowgirls in the sand... et tellement d'autres ! Une époque aujourd'hui disparue ce qui renforce le pouvoir de cette musique. Merci Neil. ❤
Une musique à jamais éternelle
Thank you Canada, because a world without Neil Young would be a colder, harsher and much more dismal place, indeed! I've loved Neil's music since the '70's and will until I'm ashes, dust and someone's memory. And even after all that (hehe). But right now, the fact that UA-cam had the stones to place a damn commercial ad right in the middle of this epic song makes this tune even sadder.
The Rhythm, call and answer, building to a crescendo and then fades away.... hair on neck standing... magical.
Play this at my funeral
My funeral will go on for many many weeks because I want his entire catalogue played.
He's so special.
Almost not of this world.
An angel.
My angel.
Our angel 💛
I'm planning on using After the Gold Rush at my funeral ❤
Por el momento ,piensa más en oírlo mientras puedas,hermano❤
Neil , my musical hero since i bought the album Harvest . I am from 1959. This song in the long version is also a trasure!
No prawie równo (55 anno domini ) od- Woodstock jak grał w CSN&Y i pozniej Solo z Crazy i innymi 🎸👉. ✌️. ..Rengi ✌️
I know Neil's voice is an acquired taste but I almost feel sorry for people who don't love this man's music. He makes everyday better for me.
I'm on my knees to praise Neil every time i hear his music. There's lot of good music out there but nothing compares to this genius.
same. and I am absolutely convinced he should have been awarded that Nobel prize rather than Dylan.
WHEN HE DIES HE'LL FIND ............................ THE ''FOURTH CHORD!" OH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3 CHORD ORGASM?@@danilokrivenko243
Yes, screw you-tube for that annoying commercial.
Also, you are so correct with the rest. No one can even come close to the quantity AND quality of music that he has released in the last SIXTY years.

I was in line at the Jewel in Chicago about 15 years ago when this came on the grocery store radio...NO JOKE! I looked at my Dad, who was with me and we both began singing! ❤😢
Chicago was a better place back then , I bet ?
You and ur dad are cool.. This is real music
My Dad was also very KooL
We-you and I-were most fortunate
💖
Now that's a moment
Did it make you dance? I Would have and I'm an old woman now. No matter been listening to him forever ❤ Pure beauty
Neil Young's greatest song, IMO. Just magnificent.
All of his greatest songs are heavy on the pedal steel guitar, if you catch my drift . . .
This is the legendary version
I really like the Red Rocks live 2000 version.
@@mmakshak That's Right. Greetings from Berlin
Damn right you are man.
Moody, rhythmic, comforting. To me this may be his very best song.
Ohhhh yesss
Agreed 1000000%
Huge fan 🎸
Yep.
exact characterization
They are only "Words,' but Neil Young manages to capture more than just life. It is a feeling, a being, an experience, that one must travel through on life's journeys.
There are no “words” to describe the beauty of this song.
😊😊

Neil you are a Canadian national treasure for sure.
Neil was born in Toronto, moved to Winnipeg when his parents broke up, that's where started his career
THATS THE SONG! GOD LOVES YOU GOD LIVES ME GOD LOVES EACH ONE OF US THE SAME.
ur so cute
I cant get enough of this song, I want to play it for 25 hours straight. Nazer....gb
Mesmerizing His voice is pure gold.
He is unique. No one else sounds like him.
This is one of my favorites.
He expresses pure emotion. Helpless. He expresses the pain of loss perfectly.
What a great artist.
Thanks Neil Young.
Best Song ever

This is the song that got me hooked on Neil as a teenager, secretly listening to "Harvest" on my brother's hi fi. Decades later, I'm still returning to it, and it's fresh as ever.
My story is the same as yours.🤙🏼
Harvest was the first ever album I bought
Happy birthday Uncle Neil. 77 whoa. . . that is an interesting number for sure.

Bonsoir. Merci.
❤ amo questa canzone Neil e Faber sono i cantautori che amo di più
In qualsiasi versione una delle più belle canzoni di tutti i tempi
Damn, I LOVE this song! Jack Nietzke (sp?) on piano, and the late Ben Keith on steel guitar. Great, great lyrics. And I just love the way the piano plays right on through.
wow ...listening to it after 30 tears or more
Fifty for me ....
Whenever Im working on a car ,
I play this song , over and over ..
" If I was a Junkman
Selling you cars
Washing your windows
and shining your stars "
that's me cleaning and 'a man needs a maid'
Best song ever!
Instrumentally turns the words into music , this song is the journey of mans existence.
Mr. Robert Christensen you have a way with words. Kudos
as children how we loved neil young and still do a living legend

There is always TWITTER.....

This song, almost always, makes me cry.....says something about the beautiness of this song. Defently best song ever made! Thankx Neil❤
Agreed. Another of his that affects me this way is "Ramada Inn." This is so beautiful, I love the way the piano, pedal steel, and lead guitar all trade places.
The silver lining to the Neil Young library being dropped by Spotify, was discovering this version of a true gem. The soul in his music always draws out my most guarded emotions and this rendition is his opus for me. Thank you.
Actually NY dropped Spotify, not the other way around.
Magnifica. Sublime. Leggenda Neil Young!!!

This is the version of "Journey through the Past", soundtrack LP from the same named movie.
one song, one man, one love
The song comes from the heart. Simple words but deep meaning. That's what I like with Neil Young. Rock on......
This is great, but the guitarsolo on Harvest is unbeatable in my opnlon, thank you for posting this.
Thanks for the video, for all the information and the nice comment on the song.... my favourite Young's song. A piece of art
Truly a masterpiece by Neil Young.....nuff said
Love...
Now this is... I got nothing it's too good!!!

I've always thought this was quite a jam and thought they should put out a compulation of all neils jams. Include like a hurricane.
Your notes on this song are well-said. Thank you for sharing your insights on this marvelous song that doesn't seem to age.
My favorite song as a musician my self I appreciate other artists
Neil young I owe many music good times memories along on the journey was Neil

Hipnotizante!!..
I have this on vinyl. The original I got when it came out. Who can top that? Haa!
I have a signed copy...... And, I will never sell it - it will be buried with me.
I too 😉
