- Is it surprising that this song, released in May 1972, became an almost instant superhit?
Perhaps it's one of your favourite songs too. But is it easy to interpret or explain the meaning of the song? Many have, in fact, put up their own interpretation of this song in different forums; some think Neil is talking about his guitar in this apparent love song, others mention religious connotations.
Well, just as works of art - like paintings that are open to the viewer's own interpretation - I hope you will interpret this song according to your own response to the song. Whether that be emotional, inspiring, romantic or spiritual, I believe as a fan you cannot overlook the unmatched voice of this singer, the melody and his unique singing style.
Neil, thank you for the beautiful music. This song is still wonderful after all these years……
Yes Carle, it is and will always be wonderful. Thank you for your comment.
When you dig down to the bottom of this, accepting all of life (and for many, it may have the lure of a relationship), it begins by luring anyone into what was laying beside him.
It was the music. Relationships are important, but the music will take you.
Very, VERY VERY deep.
It is the eternal language understood by all ... and it always will be. You don't need to speak a particular language, it still moves you. It haunts you. It springs up like new flowers in springtime, with a new glow for your next encounter.
Love, war, pain, religion, joy ... all of it is in the music.
Hi Susan - what a beautiful description and interpretation of music, of the essential role it plays in so many areas of life. Music certainly binds us, no matter how far apart we are physically. Thanks for recognising all this and for commenting.😊
Mit Musik kann man alles sagen. Sie bleibt und das ist so gut. ❤❤❤😊
Non riesco a percepire il significato della canzone, ma riesco a tradurre per me le sensazioni che mi trasmette, romanticismo puro. Una dichiarazione d'amore. Meravigliosamente profonda ed emozionante, come
"I am...said"
Only the songwriter can explain the full meaning of a song. But basically most of Neil's songs are about love, maybe this one has something to do with a sense of guilt. But it is enough to appreciate his voice and the melody he has created with the words.
Your video is very beautiful and the photos you if Neil are of "my Neil ", in the sense that they show him like I think he was in those inspired days. Very well chosen, indeed! As for the meaning of the song, well, as you wisely say, it can have several different meanings for different people. To me it is a stream of consciousness ( to use his own phrase). I don't even attribute a meaning to it. Rather a feeling! This song makes me really feel! The same with some other four or five of his early songs. They spark or ignite something inside me. This doesn't happen with all his songs. I truely believe that there was some kind of devine intervention when he wrote some songs. I think the photo at 1:49 captures exactly what I mean!
So glad you pisted this! TY❤
Thanks so much for your comments, Joanna. It really pleases me that you found the video beautiful and that it brought back memories of "your Neil", that is wonderful :) I agree with much of what you say esp. about it being a "stream of consciousness" song, one that essentially makes one "feel" - which itself imparts meaning to the song. Please keep visiting, your comments are much appreciated :)
Das Lied ist so schön und Neil singt es mit viel Gefühl. Das Video passt perfekt. Danke Nas. 🤗
