My buddy of 45 years died suddenly....I nicknamed him Johnny Rotten 40 years ago. He played bass in a local band and told me one night he didn;t feel well. He was dead in a week....I miss Johnny Rotten so much. Yes , Rock n Roll will never die.
Not Really. There is no reason to Burn Out. Fading away is inevitable becuase the body will eventually die but YOU can be remain a vital, alive, human being, all the way until your death. Don't Give Up. 🌸🌹🏵💐
C James Same as yours, and you still can't put Cobain on the same level of a guitar genius like Hendrix and a great poet like Morrison, you'd have to be dumb and deaf to believe other wise.
The lyrics are so powerful yet very sad. It hits you right in the heart. I just realised how music can bring the feeling of empathy and how we can relate to it so much. This is one such song. "It is better to burn out than to fade away. My,my,Hey,Hey"
It was Kurt Cobains suicide note "It's better to burn out than to fade away" . Of couse this is not true. Its better to shine on and keep on shining no matter what.
Every 10 years in life the impact of these songs will grab you..Im 43...to some Im a kid , to some I'm an older man...to me Im fighting life now with a large brain tumor for 4 months...Perespectives change so quickly sometimes. 6/13 I was a General Manager making money for 6 years...6/14 seizure...tumor discovery. Now Im day to day on horrible medications and these songs are literally heart grasping...as a youngster they were great songs now I live these songs...God Bless
Logical1 Analyze i cant report your comment as stupid so ill just let you know that what you said was stupid and in my opinion you ruined his wonderful comment
True we were born into this world we live life togather in a troubling world we grow old and fade in to none existence then you will be forgotten by generations of are grand children and there children's children we are humen with no real perpuse just born live die
All I can say.. being a fan of ' Sons Of Anarchy'. . Losing my Dad and being a Harley guy myself.. listening to this.. thinking of that scene.. and how it can relate to people.. this song.. hard to describe what power it has
I am a little worried. I mean now that Bowie died it makes me wonder who's next. Bowie was always the least expected one. Now he's gone. Keep living Neil. We all know rock n roll will never die but you must also live with it.
All These Foolish people that think this song is about Kurt Cobain. fools! This song was written before Kurt Cobain even picked up a guitar. the "king" he's referring to is Elvis Presley. and for those of you who don't know Neil Young has been recording since way back in the sixties when he was in a band called Crosby Stills Nash... And Young. also please note Neil Young much like myself is a very proud Canadian.
Tim, NVM. I just cruised down the comment section and saw ALL of the idiots thinking it's about Kurt!?! Some "fans" they are of both of these guys!! 😂😂😂 Straight clowns.
Savanna Bloom What does age ever have to do with anything? Also, your difference in opinion can not be deemed absolute, although many would disagree with current generation pop music like yourself, you are preaching amongst a group of like-minded people who will almost certainly agree with you. Music is sound-art, it doesn't matter what combination of sounds you have, or who is responsible, what's important is that the listener is enjoying it regardless of how it got there. Those modern pop-stars, although maybe not entirely responsible for their own success, are associated with music that many people around the world just so happen to enjoy. Even if I am not so fond of the current business practices involved in producing it, and advertising it... There really is no right or wrong with music... after all, the value is only determined by us humans.
i do know I'm actually disagreeing with myself whilst saying this, but i do know that you are right. music is art, and art is free to the world and free in mind. art has no direction it goes where it leads you. i just don't know anybody in my age listening to this kind of music, especially neil young, and i don't know why. all these popstars of the present time are just misleading , and advertising all the wrong things in my opinion. I didn't mean to offend or judge any of their songs, i was more referring to their attitude, and the behavior and things they are putting out there for all these young children to see. i can't judge their music, because i don't actually ever listen to it, the most of the knowledge i have, is drawn to the things that are published by media, the things that you can't avoid seeing
you know, when i saw the "HQ" i thought itd be the studio version, but then i thought, "wait, its Neil Young...he's good either way!" and so now I'm here.

There is something about that harmonica playing that just hits the soul. RIP Kurt, you will never be forgotten.
RIP Kurt, you will never be forgotten. ? I don't know about that, it's not like he's on the level of Hendrix or Morrison.
thesly74 Because you're on what level?
C James
Same as yours, and you still can't put Cobain on the same level of a guitar genius like Hendrix and a great poet like Morrison, you'd have to be dumb and deaf to believe other wise.
Trust me homie. we are NOT on the same level.
break down the celebs and the fame and the magazines and we are all the same. So yeah, he or I can put him on that level. And you cant change that.
a musician that can tug at your heart strings or bring you to tears is a true master !

Jaaa Joe The prince must have been the most luckiest guy on the planet.
he was a junkie in his earlier years. i thought he would have died sooner
"Once you're gone, you can never come back" perfect for a letter...
My boss played this song all the time in graduate school!!!
Love “ better to burn out than than to rust”……
There always is an audience in quality music, sometimes they can't even hide...
Love this song.Straight to the heart it goes.
Awesome again, Neil Young is a Canadian legend
Theres something very special about this song, no matter how happy or bitter I become I will never deny that fact.
The battle cry of a Rocker (johnny Rotten) with the sound of a wounded harmonica, it's a knot in my throat, damn.
