My dad passed away in 2020, I'm 32 now and I recently went thru some more of my dads things. This song was on my mind so I had to play it. I love you dad and I miss you.
I'm 54 and Dad's still living nearby. I'm going to go help him split and stack some firewood today. You just reminded me to tell him that I love him while I'm there. Thank you.
same here, my dad also passed away in 2020 and that’s one of the musics that i listen to when i want remember him (more)
♡
Rip to him, you'll meet him again when your time comes, in the mean time, enjoy your life as much as you can because he would want it too, he will watch over you from the heavens, waiting for you to join him
I lost Dad in '21 to suicide. I'm so sorry. You are not alone. I find a lot of comfort and closeness to him in the rich music he listened to and loved.
My dad died when I was 29yrs.old. He did something I will never forget and think of often. He new I loved cars even from a very early age.When I was 16 he bought me a older used car and put the title in a envelope and stuck it on a branch of our Christmas tree. Thanks dad I think of you often
Same here, my dad also passed when I was 29yo. It's been 30 years now and i still miss him like crazy.
You're really lucky that would be the dream for a young guy
I was only ,27 when my old man died , smoked himself to death he was only 62 which is very young when I'm 67 don't drink don't smoke and I'm after living to 100😂😢
@My dad died of cancer of throat cancer in 1985 after a lifetime of heavy smoking. I didn't stop until I was 40 I'm ,67 now and I am so glad I did😅😅🏴
That's awesome! Reminds me of a time back in 2000. My father and I drove by a car for sale in a parking lot that I wanted badly. I knew I didn't have enough for it, I was 3 grand short but I begged him to turn around so I could get the sellers #. I figured if I can't afford it I might as well take it for a quick test drive just for the hell of it lol. My father knew how much I loved that car since it was all I talked about for the next 2 days! The third day, I came home from work and I walked up the steps to the front door and there was a 100 dollar bill on the floor. I go to pick it up and a couple feet away was another one! To make an already long story short, he made a trail of $100s that led me to the living room where he was sitting in his favorite chair with the rest of the $ I needed for the car. We left right after and bought the car. He was very special to everyone who knew him. I was 25 when he died in 06. Deer jumped out of the woods and knocked him off his motorcycle. I wish my kids had more time to spend with him. They were too young to remember much. RIP Randy Ligotino 1953-2006
i hope they never remove these comments we are strangers here but are feeling all so much the same. it's comforting. take care whoever reads this now and years from now.
Right! Thats why i hate when they repost an old song just to see how quickly its gets views right! 🌊💌
Bless you. I hear u loud & clear. Early in the morning. Missing my Daddy.❤❤❤❤
Thank you
Agree.
What a beautifully written sentiment
I have a similar story. My late father's favorite song. We couldn't agree on much in life, but we both loved this. RIP Gary Irwin 1955-2015
I weep with everybody who misses their dad. It's rough, it hurts to the soul.
Me too!
It’s been since 2007 and it still hurts!
He was a big time baseball player and fan so as the new seasons start each year I miss him a lot more but know that he’s got a lot of great players with him now to “ease the pain”!
Time to watch Field of Dreams again…
I'm crying over my Dad right now. He passed in October of 2022 and my grief is still so painful and heartbreaking. 💔
There’s no doubt about that.
It hurts and you feel it at the very core of your soul, I agree..
It’s a cut that never heals, been 13 years in October.
My father passed away just this week. I’m 18. I’m lost without him, but wearing his old leather jacket and hearing this brings me just a bit of comfort.
Sorry for your loss.
Time is a healer friend, sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss🙏
Sending you love brother. Dwell on the love he gave you
So very sorry for your loss. I never had a Dad but I’ve had friends that have amazing Dads. ❤
I was roughly 24 years old when I first heard this and I instantly fell in love with it. Now I'm 75 and I'm the old "man", and I love this song even more than ever before. Neil Young was a musical genius to be able to write such an emotional song that has stayed deep inside my heart for almost my entire lifetime.
Right on brother keep on keepin on
I’m a few years behind you but can echo your sentiment. My heart fills when I listen to him singing his songs from that era.
Sure wish I had some friends like you folks to relate to. Late 60s here & the past few years have left me completely alone. Very glad to see that there are still a few of us around…
Yes I'm the old man now 62 my older sister used to play harvest record album good times in dublin ireland 🇮🇪
71 now, and heard it when it came out. I was the young man then. Now I'm the old man now and I have seen both sides of this song. Still excellent
My dad would play this song on his guitar. Its so hard to not cry listening to this song. He was the best dad a son could have. He passed away Christmas day.
So sorry for your loss! I can't even fathom that kind of pain. 😢
So sorry, man. Try to remember the great times you had with him. That keeps him alive in your heart forever.❤
Hugs ♥️ I miss my Dad too. 😭
Thank you guys I appreciate it 🙏🏻
I'm so sorry for your loss and pain..be strong and always cherish the precious memories of your times together ❤
My daddy died in 2020. I was born in '86. I can rememeber dancing to this with my feet upon his. He was my best friend.
sorry for your loss. lost may dad 2 years ago, still think about him everyday.
Cheers to the men and women before us! And all the lessons they have!
My dad died in 2020 and I was born in 86 also. God bless you!
This touched me. I'm 70, and I remember when this song applied to me. 😢
@jessicalaurenodo i love your pic on profile reminds me n mine and god i ❤️ him
My old cat died this week. Buried him today and played this song afterwards. Felt like a fitting tribute. He liked listening to Neil with me.
Sweet!❤❤
Lost mine in october. Buried him underneath my bedroom Window. Still talk to him on His grave
I could bawl my eyes out, my older sisters died so young 56 & 66, 2011 & 2022 we just loved Neil in our house in the 70's...
My heart and prayers
One of my favorite songs by Neil Young. 2024 who's with me??
Meeee!!! 👍 I had to be 5 yrs.old back in 1973 when I first heard Old Man on the radio when radio was and I instantly fell in love with the hold song….It was Mr. Young singing and the melody that I couldn’t erase from my little head back then…..I grew up appreciating all types of music from my parents and uncles….I’ve always had great taste in music….I should’ve went in the business 🤣 And now this song has more meaning to me….I lost my loving Dad 2yrs ago….I miss you Daddy 😢
Me. This song makes me cry every time I hear it
Amen, and amen.
Only Incels, real fan for 30 years here
2024 and there's so much more.
Lost my dad in 2020, I just turned 24 today and had to stop by and play this again. To anyone still reading this, I hope you receive everything that you put into life. "I'm proud of you"
Not about a dad dude.
It doesn't matter who the songs about dude it's maybe his father liked it so you come out man what the f***⚡
Take care bro.
@@chrishorst1318”old man take a look at my life im a lot like you were”. Although not necessarily about “dad” can really hit home. Just that line to me, thats me and my old man(old man is a common term for sons to call their dads, i.e. “my old man, blah blah blah”. Well, when my dad was my age he had 2 boys about my daughters age. He was a functional alcoholic, we had food and a home. We took small family vacations to my grandpas cabin. That is literally my life right now. Art is in the eye of the beholder, what it means to you or me or the artist or that 24 year old kid that started this comment thread may all be different but are all still valid, THATS WHAT ART IS!
I’m sorry for your loss 🙏
Don’t ever take your pops for granted! He’s wiser than you think! RIP pops. 😢
My old man died February 2024. Still can’t believe he’s gone. I talk to him every night. If you see this dad. I miss you, I love you.
Sorry for your loss buddy
@@RippedLipsBassFishing🙏🏻
@@RippedLipsBassFishing thank you!
Sorry dude
That broke my heart...
One of the greatest songs written in my opinion
I agree.
100%
This entire album was pretty amazing. I'll nerver forget Live Aid, a doomed music fest for charity. A bunch of good bands came out and played, then Neil walked out by himself in a pair of blue jeans and a plain white tshirt and proceeded to blow away everyone else who played.
Music Trivia:
If you listen closely you'll hear Linda Ronstadt @ 1:18
200% cause the guy above put 100 but I agree with him .best song ever
I never had a old man in my life. I think it might have been cool to have a dad to share this with.
Keep your chin up and your heart open, maybe it was out of his hands
Both my parents passed in 97. They lived 300 miles away. I had old cars back then and made the drive once if not twice a month. Them old cars never failed me when visiting them. Been listening to this song since before I was 24. Now 66 and just getting off on a Saturday. I dream my parents from time to time and we talk and laugh and sometimes argue. Gifts from Heaven!
So sad this isn’t on Spotify anymore. A masterpiece.
It's really unfortunate. They were my biggest streams on Spotify. I hate to really say it, but Neil Young was being a bit of a hypocrite there. He built his career on counterculture and anti-government protest and then turns around and threatens a free speech platform for promoting free speech. I'm not going to pretend that COVID is not a touchy subject, but free speech is free speech, and Neil Young chose not to support it
...
:(
This IS on I'll put it on You Tube at JIMI JAMS ON MY JIMI HENDRIX JAMS.
Someone keeps adding it back idk how but Spotify takes it down…. Whoever you are please put it back we love you ✊🏼
I grew up around this music and I’m 36 years old and I love it. I listen to it every day on the job site and I won’t change it for nothing.
My Daddy. Just got the courage to look thru his things. Belt buckle, job id's. He was a millionaire. Never spent a penny on himself. Gave us everything. Daddy, I wouldn't trade that 50 cent belt buckle for 20 million dollars. I love you Daddy.❤❤😂😂
Something you will do one day,Hauser 😮
I'm 52 and my dad is 81, there's 180 miles in between us, I will visit him soon
Definitely go visit him 💪🙏
Do it, my dad was in intensive care recently, operation nearly went wrong and hearing he's in a bad way hit hard bro, go and see him, I'm 52 in a couple of weeks, make positive use of whatever time is left for any of us.
Plz do 😢❤❤❤
I'm 56, my Dad passed away 2 weeks ago aged 96. I love rock music, my dad loved C&W, Neil Young was where we met each other halfway. Gonna miss you dad. Here's to fathers, we'd be nothing without them.
Me to
My father is in ICCU after a brief illness. We are coming together tonight 7/13/23 with the whole family to take him off life support. When I woke up this morning, this song was rolling through my mind. I hadn't heard this song for years but here it is. Needless to say, I have been listening to this song on repeat, looking at pictures of my dad and crying my eyes out. I love you DAD ~ Thanks for the all the wisdom and love.
Hey man, keep your chin up. I know it's tough, I lost my mother 17 yrs ago at 14 and I still miss her. Try to keep your father's memory alive and remember all that he did and sacrificed for you. I'm sure he is in a better place now. Keep all the memories close to your heart, NO ONE can take those away from you. God bless you and your family and I wish you and your family nothing but the best. Sorry for your loss.
Cheer up man!
Mine passed when I was 17. It devistated me.
❤
I am so sorry for your loss. Iissy daddy too.
I’m 13 and my dad has lung cancer and has about maybe a good 3 years so this song kind of helps.
❤
Lost mine 7 years ago to lung cancer Stay strong
Remember when, carry dad's memory forever
63 now. This song still so bittersweet. Finally found that person to love me the whole day thru
My father passed away last November. He taught me lots about music. Got me into playing the guitar and this was the first song I learned. Challenging for a beginner but it was something I wanted to play for my dad at 10 years old.
Moved to college… got the call at 20 he passed. Came home and immediately went to the record room and played this album. For 2 months I played this album. Crying every damn time. Thank you Neil Young (even though you will never see this)
It’s better to burn out, than to fade away.
I'm touched by what you've wrote. I know the lyrics are about a farmer on a ranch but, when I hear it, I hear it as if it's for my father, my old man and it makes me feel better just to think of him...
My condolences to you and your family.
Sorry for your loss man, hope you stay strong. 🖤
RIP to your dad 🙏
Love you brother
I was introduced to Neil young at 12 years old from my best friends grandfather he is the most amazing man in the world a true gentleman and a geandfather I’m putting this comment in because he is currently in hospital after a stroke with a 50/50 chance of dying and I am praying for him and his family because he was the OLD MAN that made me love music he made nature a love of mine because he always takes us camping in and all around Scotland he is a man who has a pure true HEART OF GOLD I’m praying for him but right now I’m on the phone to his grandson I pray because this man is the best 64 year old in the world
He sadly passed just over a month ago
my dad is going to turn 62 today, and this song just so tough
Lost my old man in 2023 and also my mom. This song brings me all the feels.
Me too, 4 months apart. Still gutted.
@@edwardpetersen3437 hugs! It sucks
We all will meet again and again though. Meditation helps reveal this.
My condolences, sir.
The banjo is James Taylor, and he and Linda Ronstadt are singing backup vocals
Dedicate this to all the Men that really go out there and do whatever it takes to support the family... whatever it is Good Or Bad been on both sides of Life 51 and terminal it was all worth it.
2024 and there’s SO MUCH MORE. God bless whoever reads this❤️
Bless you my friend, I feel ❤
What a treasure
Nobody knows
Much more What?
Thanks very much for thinking of your fellow humans. Extremely rare these days. Well Done!
No greater music will ever come round again like this. Timeless
I have to agree with you! Even the music that Crosby, Stills, & Nash put out was awesome!!!!!! Even while Neil Young was with them too! Great music that will never die. Such talents!
Check out Filter-Jerassitol....it's the same song, just for your kids....your grandkids are lost
preach!!
Yes
One time I took a poop and it sounded like this song 😂. Jk this is a great song but let’s not act like this is the end all be all of this everything
Just chatting to a random old man who got out of his car and wanted to pet my dog.
I said of course and his eyes lit up.
He said he’d lost his wife and had border collies in the past(our dog is a collie)
He wanted to give him a treat and looked in his car but couldn’t find any so I gave him one to give to our dog.
Dog sat,wagged his tail and gave the old guy his paw.
Think that made the old guys day and I thought of this song after leaving and carrying on…Neil Young captures the memories in a lot of his songs….been a fan for 50 years now and the songs never grow old like we do❤
That is a beautiful story. Just being open to compassion is so needed these days. You never know how you can change someone's day or life by a small act of kindness. Thank you for sharing. ❤
To whoever may be reading this I pray for comfort peace and understanding for you
Thank you ❤
Merry Christmas !!!
Man it just doesn't get old
No, you're right, it doesn't! This stays Neil YOUNG. Lol, just had to say that...
James Taylor on the banjo and backing vocals along with Linda Ronstadt. Totally legendary.
My Dad passed away this year,2024. I love you Dad❤❤❤
My deepest of condolences. Remember that we don't know the answer to everything but energy never dies. It is always worth missing them. Please have hope and let love guide your heart into the fastest healing in the best of ways until you meet again. Bless you.
Thankyou for your kind words! ❤❤
My dad passed away November 2024 of brain cancer and this is one of the last songs we listened to together. Hope you’re doing well man see you again one day! Love you
Now that I'm an "old" woman, this song hits totally differently than it did when it first came out & I was a little kid. Thank you Mr. Young.
My father took his life when I was 11. Unfortunately didn’t have him for the most important years of my life but appreciate what time i did have. He was my hero and I can see that I’m just like he was. In a good way and a bad way. Was a great man just couldn’t overcome his demons. What a great song. Hope everyone who lost their old man is doing well out there.
May God guide you. Salaam
I’m 41. My father passed suddenly in 1996. I was just a kid. Still a lost soul. Somehow I know God loves us all despite the difficulties of life.
I was 18 when this song came out. I'm 69 now. It's Penetrates my soul ......
I was 14 and Neil's albums ju On the beach Zuma. st got better
I was a very young child when this song came out. It was not until my mid twenties I started to appreciate it on multiple levels. It's a very deep but simple soul searching melody.
Like you on this page I was just about 20 or so when I first heard old man and its been one of my rocks through life, im 71 now still play it regular and one thing I can say is its always been in my mind when pulling up (not so offten now) one of my kids x 3, 2girls one boy the yongest @ 46. I love all three and my three grand children but there is a special bond between my son and me which makes me hope that my old man was alot like i am now. and I got the time to get to know my son and him me, there is nothing I wont do for all of them if I can make it possible I will. and I know they would for me (thanks neil you helped stablelize me).
Hits me a lot
different at 62.😊
Yes it does. I'm 61 but remember exactly where I was on my 24th b-day. I went to a bar called the evergreen hotel because they had this on the jukebox. Can't get it out of my head today. Be well, friend.
I am 41 and just found out about this song.
🥸🎧📲🎶🎶🎶
I still have my 💿 CD ,…I had the album back in the day,…Now I’m The Old Man ,…70yrs old but Still enjoying LIFE!! 🥸👍💜🎶🎶
I have the album, love it.
Thanks chuy your cool
So comforting to see all of the comments. Seems like a lot of us are listening to this to remember daddy. I’m right there with ya.
RIP Rickey Lee Phillips 09/12/54-12/25/2021
Im 75, lost my father long ago, this still brings me back to him.
I vividly remember the first time I heard this song. I was 4 and riding around with my dad in his orange Dodge Dart. This would have been 1974.
My dad listened to a lot of music, and most of it was just noise to a 4-year-old. So when he put Harvest on the 8-Track and this song came on, I took notice.
Simple and pretty, like a lullaby, with words I could clearly hear. And even if I didn't understand the meaning of the words (what's upsetting about an old man?), the music told me that this song was very...sad, definitely, but also something that 4-year-old me couldn't name yet.
This song (as well as "Can't Find My Way Home" and "Ricky Don't Lose That Number") quickly became one of my most requested when we rode around in his orange Dodge Dart.
My dad was a difficult, complicated man. The very good parts of him, like his humor, sense of adventure, and love of music quickly became lost to the very bad parts of him. So when I traveled home in 2004 to be the person to take him off life support, it had been 7 years since we'd spoken.
I was 34 when this happened, and I definitely cried, but not because of him. I cried because I was the only child of the kind of father who would end up making his only child be the one to decide to take him off life support and stand alone with him for the 7 minutes it took him to die. After that cry, I moved on. All in all, I was relieved that he was gone.
In the 20 years since then, I would occasionally wonder over how rarely I thought of my father, or missed him at all. Wasn't that kind of strange? Was I deluding myself about how sad I was? Was this healthy?
This morning, I read a line from Old Man on Reddit and remembered this song, a favorite from so, so long ago. I came here to listen for the first time in many decades, and stood in my kitchen and cried for my father.
He was a complicated and difficult man, but he was also the kind of man who would introduce his 4-year-old to Neil Young, and so much other music.
He gave me more than just sorrow and trouble, he gave me my humor, my love of adventure, and my love of music, which is something that has sustained me all these years.
I'm 54 realizing there's so much more to who my old man was and how I felt about him, and why his death made me sad.
This song helped me finally, fully grieve him -- all of him -- and I'm thankful for that. I miss him, because there was something worthy of being missed. I'm glad I listened today.
This song never fails to bring a tear to my eye. It's incredibly beautiful.
There with you folks, lost my Mom and dad in September of 21, COVID, whin 5 days of one another and I struggle with it every day. I was a daddy's girl to the core tho, and this was one of our us songs 😢
I feel for you i lost my mom and dad when i was young life suck but you up to keep going your dad and mom looking at you everday make them proud of you
Keep being strong you're not alone
My daddy passed away 2 days ago at the age of 89. This was his ringtone when he would call me. Love you daddy! 😞😢
Condolences... ❤❤
🙏🙏🙏
Meh
Sorry to hear of your loss.
@@jsmithers. 🤓
My dad past 14 years ago today. This song brings me closer to him.
I used to own this record album in 1971 or 1972 and I was 15 in 1971 !Wish music was still like it used to be !
yeah it is sad that the music now a days is all computerized That was the time to be alive and grow up. 60's and 70's music was and still is the best
I play my vinyl of this album weekly. Still sounds superb
Wisconsin
My mum gave this record to me a few years ago. It started my LP collection. Such a good record.
I am 21 and gotten into oldies some I was 17, have a record player now and this new school rap and indie rock is nothing compared to 70s/80s music
I’m 32 and don’t see my dad nearly as much these days I’ve seen him in person once in the last 8 years. Listening to and reading the comments I realize I need to go see my dad and cherish the time we have left. Thanks you all!
I would kill to have the amount of time I should have had with my Dad.
Yesss please do because time is fleeting! He'll be gone before you know it and it's the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. It'll be 3 yrs in Sept and most of the time it feels like it was a week ago and some days it feels like I haven't seen or heard his voice or felt his hug in decades...❤
Yes you do. Don’t wait. Do it now.
Go now.
That's crazy dude. How does that even happen?
We're the new old generation to come stay strong my friends ❤️☝️💪
i was about 17 when i first heard this and could not even comprehend 24. 70 now. always loved Neil Young
"Harvest" is Neil Young's finest work and "Old Man" is the best of the best.
The best album, but old man #2, Heart of Gold is #1 in my opinion.
Will it always hurt this much? I just want to see home again the way it was. I miss him so much. Soldiers never die!
I love you so much dad. I miss listening to this song together while we played games. I am a lot like you and I miss you so much. I love you and I’ll see you again ❤
My Father passed away this week
He liked this particular song and we used to cry to this together
Sorry 😢
I play this song while working in the barn here in New Mexico. Its beautiful. My grandmothers ranch. The red sunsets. This fire in the sky for miles. Horses running around. The sheep coming back into the corral. Blessed its my escape from the city life. A peace im so happy. To sit on the corral fence watching the sunset far into the desert/mesas and watching the sheep dogs playing with my nephews. How much i wanna protect them from the outside crazy world.
Heyyyy, Im in NM too
@@krystennicole6446 nice!
Keep them away from insane liberals
You're so lucky to live there. We went on vacation there. I fell in love with NM. The day we left to come home, there was a rainbow in the sky, so beautiful. I will forever treasure that trip to New Mexico.
Sounds great! 🍻
My Dad passed away a few days ago aged 86 years old. Will miss him dreadfully. This song gives me comfort.
I’m sorry man. Know the feeling, my dad passed away in 2020. Stay strong!
My condolences to you....
@@JoaoMF93 CT
Love that added banjo
My dad passed away last year and he was my mentor and I think about him everyday
I had friends back in the 70’s that could play Neil acoustically. Now that I’m the old man I remember and smile knowing that those were some of my best days of my life. Keep on Truckin.
My dad died in 2020 too. He was 63. I was 26. I miss him more every day. He loved this song, and I put it on a playlist of what I knew were his favorite songs when he was unconscious in the hospital. I played them for him., and I will never know if he heard it. Music and food are the deepest connections I still have to him. I hope you're resting easy, Dad, wherever that may be.
Bravo ragazzo, che vuole bene al papà ❤
Beautiful.
Our pop’s matter❤️
My old man passed away 13July 2024. This was one of his favourite songs and reminds me of him ❤
Hard losing your old man. He's your first and best friend you'll ever have. I'm sorry for your loss. Losing your dad is devastating.
lost my old man in 2017. thank you for the genuine reference to your dad as "old man". to me....its always been my way of endearment of him.
@garywalters3007 sorry for your loss bro. I lost my old man in 2020 . I still can't believe it.
My friend died 5 days ago and he would play this song, il miss him
I lost my dad last night 2/2/25 and this was his song. I can't believe we are saying goodbye. I'm going to miss him so damn much.
My Dad was my rock 14 yrs ago. he passed I miss him so much, he gave the ability to play drums,art,as well it must have been in the genes.
But he got to the amazing age of 93 so that is incredible he loved music of Latin,Mexican,Jazz, orchestra ,piano trios and so much more as I do.
What an amazing legacy I now have to look back on at now aged 72 in a word
Thanks Dad.
My college years were spent listening to Neil Young and drinking. Never finished college. My big regret at age 62. This was my favorite.
My dad and i try very hard to get along but his drug addiction hurts me greatly. I cant stand witnessing his depressive states to his out of it delirious. But my god i love him and feel guilty about all the horrible things ive called him. ❤ love you regardless dad
Nothing but love for u my brother
Dad knows you love him
Life isn't fair
Be strong
I lost my daddy to cancer in 2012 and every time I hear this song it reminds me of him.
I am that old man now 62 I remember my older brother used to play it on vinyl 33rpm, 12" record album at that time early 70's you were lucky to get to 3score and 10 (70)
Happy Birthday today, Neil!
I am a single Dad with a 25 year old daughter...I'm dying of stage 4 prostrate cancer...this song hits home
Hang in there, miracles happen. Say this yourself daily. "Miracles come to me,every minute of everyday" But you have to believe in what you're saying! Please do this,you never know the power of positive thinking! ❤❤❤
Amen brother
Love your neighbors amen
Lost my old man in Jan 2024. Things will never be the same.
I sang this song at a bar called locals before my dad passed away. It make more sense now whenever I sing it now. I miss you old man.
May we all be reunited with our beloved fathers in Paradise, basking in the Creator's radiance.
So beautifully said..........💕👍❤️
AMEN!!!
When I was 24, this song saved my life.
Sorry all, my mom's funeral is tomorrow and Neil was by far her favorite artist, and this was her favorite song. We danced this at my wedding and Neil is just going to hit even harder than he used too. Thank you mom soooo much for turning me onto one of the greatest artists ever. Miss you mom and thank you for the memories and music, I carry them with me forever.
I hope you will be okay in life. All we can do is keep making our Mum and Dad proud. ❤❤
Sorry bout your loss
My dad passed away July 3 2022,and I’m still heartbroken. He loved Neil Young,we listened to him my whole life.
My dad passed away June of 2019 June 25th 2019 a month before his 85th birthday
Rest in paradise to your pops brother. I lost my best friend in June of 2023 & this song still makes me ball 😢. Stay strong my dude🙏
Love to all dads out there. I think everyone’s dad is the best dad they could have. Each dad really just does everything they can for their son, or at least mine does. For anyone who sees this, never forget to tell your dad you love him. I love you dad. Thank you for everything you did and continue to do for me.
My father is about to go. While I had a father, I never had a dad and the relationship I never had is what I mourn. This song really hits home as I've always been afraid I'll become like him and continue to be even at 45. Wonderful song.
I love you man
I have a similar situation with my dad, never had a relationship with him, but I feel I’m some way I became a lot like him from his good qualities he had got passed down to me, yet my older brother is like him in the worst traits, and hearing this song kinda hit home from watch Due Date and now has a place in my playlist now.
@@spencerfrutchey3273 Much love, brother.
this song is not about fathers.
you,d never known your old man
The banjo picking is exquisite, timeless classic.Thank you Neil.
Sitting here listening in 2024 with my son… I hope one day he feels as close to me as some of the people in the comments feel about their fathers
Liked this when it first came out, now it brings a lump to my throat.
This song has always reminded me of my Dad. Growing up we didn't have the best relationship. 2 years ago my Dad got sober and we mended our relationship. The last two years it has been amazing. Unfortunately, earlier this year, my Dad was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. I just left the nursing home, where my Dad is now at, during what we believe to be our last days with him. This song brought me to tears instantly. If you're Dad is still alive and it's healthy enough for you, please go give him a hug for me. Life is so precious
Miss my old man, died at 68, sucks. Know he's watching over me though. Miss you Pops. Xo
god bless your pops
My dad passed at age 69--------he would have been 70 the following month. I was just 28, and my youngest sister was 14. 😪😪❤️❤️
I dedicate this song to my Father he is a Marine and still here and my Hero.
Please give a Semper-Fi to your dad from me.
I always thought this song could also go, “Young boy take a look at my life I’m a lot like you. I need someone to love me the whole day through”. Life comes full circle.
Listen to sugar mountain
He was genuinely brilliant. Highly intellectual and studied, minus any manufactured "degree". Hollywood handsome. No ones fool. Loving. Kind. Giving to a fault. My old Man was THE BEST.
Had not heard that song in a LONG time.
My dad died in 2021. He was my best friend, my mentor, my life inspiration. I’ve followed in his footsteps. Every day I think about what he did, what he would do. I’m just like him. That’s what I’m most proud of. Rip pops lops.
You warm my heart reading how much you loved your dad and how close you were to him. Love never dies. It will be with you forever.
My dad died a year ago tomorrow, and I'm still waiting for the day when hearing his name makes me smile instead of cry. Like you, he was my best friend. The last night of his life I pushed his hospice bed and oxygen up to the tv and listened to music with him all night until he passed. He wasn't able to open his eyes or speak by that point, and he couldn't move his fingers, but I know he heard his favorite songs and me telling him over and over what an impact he had on my life and how much I was going to miss him. I miss him a ton.
Rip my dad. Every man's man
When I listen to Neil my hair stands on the back of my neck!! Today's music doesn't have that deepness !
This simply isn’t true you’re just not looking in the right places
@frankstarkweather9987 any recommendations ??
@@frankstarkweather9987 name one new band that elicits the same response
@@minusblindfold9851i'm not the person who left the original comment but i do think there right and some band that at least for me elicit a simular emotional response are Black country new road, big thief, god speed you black emperor (they did debut in the late 90's but are still making amazing music to this day)
@@jamesoreilly3415 i'm not the person who left the original comment but i do think there right and some recent artists i'd recommend are Black country new road, big thief, weyes blood and the microphones/mount eerie (their just two different names that the artists phil elverum has performed under)
My dad passed away in may, I turned 24 the month prior and he showed me this song because I was going through a break up. I love you dad I wish you were here.
