- Neil Young performs "Old Man" at the Farm Aid concert in Saratoga Springs, NY on September 21, 2013. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

To be performing this live, alone, nearly 70 years old...the man is just amazing.
He sounds as good now as he did in 1969.
He's one of the most gifted humans walking the planet.
He is a god, we should all bow down to him, laying prostrate on the ground, we should give him all our money, work for him for free, spend all day singing Hosannas in his honor, then go home and build an altar to him in our backyards and sacrifice children to him in hopes that he might smile favorably on us. A mighty fortress is Neil Young, a bulwark never failing, protecting us with staff and rod, his arms are ever flailing.
,Neil Young your the greatest. I lived Sugar mountain! !!!Thank You Neil
.
don't be fukin silly
it gives it a weird vibe to actually see this song being performed by Neil as an Old Man knowing it was written when he was that young, makes it feel like if it was intended for his "older" himself
I was thinking of the same. He actually lived this song!
My first Neil album, I bought in '72 ??
Yeah, when Neil YOUNG was old!
@Electric Eyes I was thinking the very same thing. Just in case you think "Well, this young lady has good taste in music, I'm actually her mother and I DID look much like her 30 years ago. But, I regret, no longer. Her dad always loved Neil's music, but I have only recently realised just what an amazing artist he really is. My husband and I are no longer together, but I can't help but think of my ex father in law whom I cared for for many years until his death last year aged 97 when I listen to this song, and I listen to it a LOT.. He was the best man I ever met or will meet and it is coming up to both his birthday week and next month the first anniversary of his death. I first met Joe as a 15 year old school girl and when he died I was a 53 year old grandma. It was an honour to care for such a wonderful "Old Man"! I'm so blessed to be able to listen to this song and recall his life and our time together. Greetings from Australia!
@@made-line7627 brought tears to my eyes. I hope to be such a great man for my people. God bless
My dear father, now 85 and still a big fan of Neil, Daddy, You met Neil when I was 14. We have done many great concerts together. I will never forget that. Now you are old and sometimes confused, but when we listen to music together you feel young. Love U My Paps
Proof that though the outer man ages, the inner man is young forever.
I was young young when this song came out. I'm 57 now it still gives me chills. It's made me think of my Dad he was an over the road trucker lucky if he was home a full weekend a month. In my child mind made me miss my dad and now it still had the same effect. Dad's been gone since 2005.
7 kids 1 passed we never went without sheets had what we needed. Not always getting what we wanted. 4 boys 2 girls raised with a Italian dad. Strict he was but I'm grateful for all the values, morals, etc he made sure we lived by them daily even over the road. Love n miss you much Daddy
Jack Frost His CB handle.
When he smiled or laughed his cheeks would get all Rosey and frosty.💯🤗😍🚚☮️✝️♥️🇺🇸
Old man I wish you were here. my dad would listen to Neil all day long... he passed away 13 years ago. I still miss him. Crying listening to this song now it makes me sad to see this world in the shape it is in now.
My dad too. Bless them in heaven
It's a shame how black lives matter, Antifa & all the others who've been paid to cause all the trouble that they've caused get away with it & more than likely your father fought either in WWII or Vietnam to protect & defend this country. So many of our vets have been forgotten & ignored. Thanks to those men we still have a country !
Had the same thought listening to this myself... Almost looks like my dad toward the end
This is his life unfolding in front of us. He does this with all of his songs.
I only wish we had more Neil Youngs and Bob Dylan's in the world.
Macc Mosley Amos Lee and John Hiatt are the ones the torch has been handed too..
Give Todd Snider a shot. He was influenced by both of them, with a bit of Jerry Jeff Walker and Robert Earl Keen tossed in for good measure.
Macc Mosley we have but now they are called "street musicians"
Ryan Smith met Todd at local music festival. Very chill guy and a great musician
Listen to Ian noe
Unbelievable that he can still carry that chorus. What an icon. Neil never sacrificed his integrity.
Set his own rules and lived by them. Never cashed in. Followed his artistic integrity. Takes care of others as well. A good soul
He still sounds like he's 24. Impressive.
And theres so much more!
Sounds better now. Amazing.
I know that 1st thing i tbought when he started to sing wow
Neil Young thank you for supporting the American farmer...Lord knows they need it.
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you were
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you were
Old man, look at my life
Twenty four and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two
Love lost, such a cost
Give me things that don't get lost
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you
Old man, take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true
Lullabies, look in your eyes
Run around the same old town
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past
But I'm all alone at last
Rolling home to you
Old man, take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you were
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you were
44 years later still singing one of his best songs--GO NEIL
Neil is amazing, He has become the old man he has sung about all these years !!!! Rock on Neil we love you !!!
He still has that amazing voice after all this time!
Neil knew back in 2013 about our environment . He has always supported the farmers. He cares about people . He cares about our food and the environment as a whole across our planet. Thank you for your support . We love you Neil Young .
Neil Young knows what hes talking about . save the Farmers ....
Nothing against you, Neil....BUT WHAT KIND OF ALTERNATIVE DO YOU HAVE? TOO MUCH ANIMAL SLURRY POISONING THE GROUNDWATER AS WE HAVE IT IN GERMANY NOW??
That's Neil. He's strugglin for a better world. He's a fighter, a patriot. Everyone should support his fight because it's our plantet and our healt. Neil thank you for your courage and these clear words. Good bless you.
We don’t deserve him. Neil is such a treasure. Even me being born in the 90s doesn’t make a difference. He is such a Godsend and touches my heart with every song of his I hear.
We need him more now than ever, I just hope that people see he isn’t in the wrong.
Thank you Neil Young for you're great music and great message.
Neil Young forever. My bestie went to his wedding with Darryl Hannah. Keep on rocking in the free world. And saddle up your palomino. He has more to say
Wow, very nice.. amazing actually.
I listened to this since 1st release partying..not a care in the world..
Now I'm 68. Listening to this from a different perspective now. How time flies.
Love it🙂
He's really showing his age. Still sounds good. The first time I heard this song I was 15. I'm 61, and still, listening to him.
this man's music (not necessarily this song) has saved my life and sanity many times. might sound morbid, but I've seen some desperate times, mostly of my own creation, and I always feel able to cope with what life throws at me when I hear Neil. If I could thank him, I would.
You just did. God bless.
Canada Your Home Loves You Neil. Thanks for such emotional and amazing rocking tunes my friend :)
He's getting so old, wow, that's astonishing. But what's comforting, is that his music will live on forever.
Man, if that guitar could talk! Look at all that history and experience, then again it does talk, because it is in the right hands!! Thank you Neil for your dedication to music, and your fans!!!
rjonzen34 that looks like Hank Williams ol guitar .. i know he has it ..
Just a man with an old beat up a acoustic guitar...and he sounds incredible! One of a kind...
Im 13 and Neil is my INSPIRATION. It's my dream to see him in concert.
Have you seen him yet?
used to listen to this song when i was a kid. yep, just like my dad. now i have kids and grandchildren. wonder what they will think.
I am 76 and can look back when I was young. Neil Young, as mentioned, wrote this when he was young and now singing this at 70. Amazing impact this makes......
Neil Young recorded this song in 1972. Well I've loved it all my life, and now I'm an adult. And I'm 24. And there's so much more. Between my dad and the old timers I work with, this song is so true. Same as it was then. I'm a lot like you were. Doesn't mean that much to me, to mean that much to you. The more things change the more they stay the same
That's how you know Neil young is real, and no bullshit. This song meant the same thing to my father, as it means to me. True artistry. True lyrics. True music. I've been first and last, look at how the time goes past.
Best show I've ever seen...SUPPORT THOSE FARMERS EVERYONE!!!
Neil Young still blends beautiful words, music and just everything around us all - still love him
I just watched a lot of his videos, dating back from '71, to 2014. He's really inspiring. I grew up with him. He has walked the same streets I walk in Ontario. I'd love to see him live. I'd probably tear up.
He is awesome live
Yeah maybe he's an old man now but he still has a young man's voice
great logic
This songs causes me to reflect great memories with my father lbj.
I listened to his performance in 1970, then this. 43 years. Like a great Barolo, this ages really well and has blossomed in the fullness of time. Bravo!
He still sings this like he cared , what a legend , long may you run mr soul .
Neil is a Living legend. great among the greater. he is a blessing human been.
Never ceases to amaze me when I hear Neil sing Old Man in today's times. I can close my eyes and I'm right back in high school, in my bedroom, headphones on, lovin' this song. Now I'm an old woman and Neil's the old man.
I miss you so much Dad. It's been 7 years since you left us, and I am typing this trying to see out of my tear-filled eyes. I hate this pain so much
When my late husband and I saw Neil Young at Bethel, NY. this past July ; he sounded even better. This particular song has tears flowing from my hubby's eyes. So happy we got to go to " our" special place and see Neil with Promise of the Real .Norah Jones opened the show. Neil only gets better ~ Bless him for all he has contributed not just great music, but a great humanitarian. He is no joke !
Judy Kinne
I was there too . Love neil
Legend Neil Young singing his most iconic song yet! My favorite! Thank you for posting "Neil Young - Old Man (Live at Farm Aid 2013)" Everyone needs access to good food! This was a fantastic concert to help keep family farmers on the land! Neil Young performing a full concert at the Farm Aid concert in Saratoga Springs, NY on September 21, 2013. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.
Neil Young we all love you. We will always love you.
Yeah my old my old man long gone now, sorry about that Dad, keep trying in 2022

I've always been a fan, but more so now.
Well done sir! Well done! Amazing
He looks so much like my Father in Law. Forever young at heart . He’s 74 now, still plays and performs with my brother in law. I married into the greatest family ever . We love hard; play hard and do music even harder . ❤️🔥❤️🔥. Cove hotel band.
Catnip Pat (Panama city Florida) Pat and Brian Muth . We grew up on this musical .
Brilliant, my favourite song. Thank you Neil
Poignant and touching. Even more so 40 years on. Thanks, Neil.
this guy is great 70 and still killing it. respect
This is to a friend of mine, Brian Bowen 1 man concert. Love you brother.
God bless our farmers. And God bless all who support Farm Aid.
I do a few Neil numbers and I am the same age as him. Many years ago I played Heart of Gold at a gig. Someone had never heard it before and asked about the original. Next time I saw him he said that he had listened to Neil but I did it better. Ha Ha. I have tried this song a few times but could not quite get it. I will try again. There is a great recording made by the BBC when he was 24 its on UA-cam somewhere. Even at his age he still has a massive vocal range. Love him.
I always have loved and always will love Neil Young. Back in the day, I used to sing this song in Baltimore coffeehouses while playing my 12-string guitar. Long Live RocknRoll and Long Live Neil Young. My "Old Man."
Neil, you will always be among my favorites of all time, Thank you for being who you are, and doing what you do. One of the best on the planet.
At 24 it's in D now in C , tuned down , still love it👌
Phenomenal..Every performance of Neil Young is so terrific..a legend ..song writer and vocalist
He should have composed Young Man version of this song. Him singing to young people how he also used to be young! But who am I. Its blessing, he can still sing this song so beautifully!
If only humanity listen to his wise message, this world would not have experiencing this global disaster. God bless us all. Thanks Mr. Young.
That's was the truth, what he talks about the farm and the way we living
his voice aged well
deserves all the accolades , brilliant man
Hey..70 yrs. Old ain't old as u think..r u with me? Neil young is awesome and a great song writer and harmonica and guitar picker..Neil has told so many stories thru his genius songs and melody..
i was young when i first heard this now like JT above i am an old man and life is just a rolling memory.....cycles of time ...waves of feelings and tsunamis of emotions..manythxs Jim sing on
HELL yeah Neil Young.
He's the old man now
The purest love is sent in " a song of prayer ". Mr. Neil Young is a harbinger of truth, love and light. Hats off to "the miner with a heart of gold". We believe in a sustainable green planet for everyone.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Thank you Mr. Neil Young for speaking the truth. God Bless
Crossed paths with Neil a couple of times.always a gentleman.keep on rockin neil!!!
I've watched the BBC video and I can't honestly sat there is any difference between the two. They're 42 years apart, and both impeccable versions of one great song. Neil includes a great message at the end.
Have Always Loved Neil , C.S.N.&Y. , and this song. Thank you for the post. Roger Crowder in Burnet, Tx.
Thanks, Neil
Always love this song.🦆❤️
Thanks for this great song!
Legend Neil Young singling - Old Man (Live at Farm Aid 2013). Now we just don't need to save the farm....but we need to save our planet!

This is amazing... Keep on playing Neil! You'll always be an amazing artist
I've seen some desperate times, mostly of my own creation like resigning in haste without backup job offer and I always feel able to cope with what life throws at me when I hear ya
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Danke ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Danke für den Song ❤❤❤
Simply a Brilliant artist..Love this song..and I can bang it out also..Thanks Neil got your musicianship and farmaid..
Loved it ! When he he goes high ...you start to feel his passion!
look in the mirror dude!
A fifty year career, one of the most prolific song writers of rock and roll, a pretty fair voice, and a killer axe man!
Neil is forever young
Old man so true I'm a lot like you! More than I want to be..
I love Neil Young. Thanks for caring and sharing such important information. Thanks for giving us a little part of your soul through your beautiful music.🦆
Youngs. Roots are deep. Keep local farms healthy.
You know you've written a good song, when it passes through time, and it comes back to you
Neil Young: About Bob Dylan's ,
Like A Rolling Stone
Saw all of them in Foxborough mass it was the best today's I ever hade .1982
this song grows with time
Great Job filming. Many Thanks.
Neil is truly a national treasure. The journey he has brought me and everyone in the world on has been a experience that has touched our hearts and lives
Amazing!!!
Neil is the person who made me feel that, yes I wanna learn to play guitar and sing.I'm still not that good but thank you Neil for that anyway.
Chaw. We get to listen to sweat old songs that, like a blanket, are our sissy sop. Matamoros.
je l'aime bcp ce Neil il est seul sur cette scène et toujours la même simplicité, il est lui-même, wow!
nearly 10 years later after this concert with a message, still governmentals refuse to listen to wise words, leaders that only listen to money-money & greedy stories... Gives much more and huge respect to Neil Young and many more artist or nature defenders. Keep on going fantastic people, never let you shut your mouth about the truth behind "economics" that destroys our world ...
I went to his concert in Paris in 1976... my first live concert. Time goes by...
