    Neil....The man. The myth. The Master. Imagine when he wrote this, his father wanted him to be a rabbi. He took his chance and followed his dream to be a song writer. He was a socially awkward person in a tiny office struggling to compose something that would resonate with people....He did ok.

    Im a huge Neil Diamond fan. I’m originally from London, England (now living in the LA area) and saw him live in London several times. He has an incredible stage presence and puts on a fantastic show. I was somewhat of a Neil Diamond and Bee Gees groupie in my young days. I met The Bee Gees many times and also met Neil a few times. He was so nice and very friendly.
    He has so many great songs. I’m sure I’m missing a lot and many of these have been mentioned in these comments, but I would suggest: Girl, You’ll be a Woman Soon, Solitary Man. Kentucky Woman, Play Me, Brooklyn Roads, Coldwater Morning, Hello Again, Love on the Rocks, Stones, Beautiful Noise, If You Know What I Mean and on and on.
    There is a musician and friend I go to see very often, who plays a lot of Neil Diamond, as well as many other artists. He’s a big Neil Diamond fan. I wish I knew how to get in touch with Neil and see if he would come to see him play one day....probably after the pandemic ends.

    FUN FACT: Neil Diamond was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1984 and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2011. He received the Sammy Cahn Lifetime Achievement Award in 2000 and was an honoree at the Kennedy Center Honors on 2011. Neil received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.

    "America" (also known as "They're Coming to America" or "Coming to America") is a patriotic song written and originally recorded by Neil Diamond, released in 1980 on the soundtrack album of Diamond's film The Jazz Singer. The song was a hit single in the United States in 1981, reaching number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 and was Diamond's sixth number one on the Adult Contemporary chart.

    Summer 1972. I just finished my high school junior year in a suburb of LA. Everyone was talking about going to the Greek theatre and climbing in the trees behind it (it's an open air theater similar to the Hollywood bowl) to watch the upcoming Neil Diamond concert. Well I didn't go and my friends never let me live it down. They said it was phenomenal. He even gave a shout-out to the "tree people"!
    So I missed the chance to see it live but bought the album the day it was released. Every song on that album is a hit. Put on the Koss Pro4 AA headphones, lay down on the floor and zone out for an hour. All the songs people are listing in there comments are on this one album. One of my best childhood memories for both missing the concert and getting the album. 💯

Please, react to the big hit from that album, the gorgeous, inspiring "Be." It seems that the public has forgotten all about that great, powerful song, and you should be the one to help them rediscover it. Thanks.

      When I was in high school I listened to that soundtrack every single night at bedtime, it just transported me away from all my troubles. I have gone through 2 vinyl albums and a cd of this soundtrack since then, and I am 58 now. When my son was so ill in the year before his death at age 31 ( he passed in 2015), I introduced him to the Jonathon Livingston Seagull album and he grew to love it so much. I added "Dear Father" to his funeral program list of songs. Here's both "Be" and "Dear Father" in one video.

    I was lucky enough to see him at Madison Square Garden when they were filming what would become the "Hot August Night/NYC" DVD back in 2008. All of his songs are great. What's amazing about him is that his songs are deceptively easy listening but actually rock quite hard. I also think it's a great tribute to his badassery that Quentin Tarantino used him more than once in his films to great effect. My favorite songs of his are "Holly Holy", "Cracklin' Rosie", "Love on the Rocks", and "Soolaimon".

    A sadly beautiful song. I've always loved this, but it always makes me tear up. Just as beautiful as when I heard it the first time. Thanks for your wonderful reaction!

    Love Neil, he's been my favorite for years. Saw him in concert 4 times; I show up on camera in the audience for a DVD that was recorded in 2008. He would close the show with this song. Always had a great connection with his concert audiences. If I could turn back the years and make him young again I would.

    Neil Diamond has always always been one of my favourites, such a distinctive voice. My husband and I went to see him in 2005 at Woburn Abbey in England. He was amazing. Holly Holy, Solitary Man, Love on the rocks, Hello again, Girl you'll be a woman soon and September Morn are but just a very few of some of my favourites.

  • @Mr54nomore

    In my humble opinion...I consider Neil Diamond Americas greatest Singer/Songwriter in history. With over 100 top 40 hits. No one comes close to match the hits he wrote in over 7 decades. The man is an institution... He has been given so many awards for his body of work.
    One of the greatest verses ever written about ones self esteem..."And I'm Not A Man Who Likes To Swear But I Never Cared For The Sound Of Being Alone."
    Great post and reaction.
    His Grammy award winning album "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" written for the movie of the same name was one of his best scores. His song "BE" is to die for. Its a take off of Shakespeare's "To Be Or Not To Be." Whether to live or die is the question...

      There are two Hot August Nights the original and one that was produced I'd say six seven ten years ago. I just moved so it's packed away somewhere so I can't really give you many particulars but it was the second Hot August Night and it was fabulous concert. I didn't get to go but I think it was on Commercial television. Any of the songs that have been mentioned would be a great follow-up. The man can sing anything and anything he sings is a number one. He's terrific. Coming to America is fantastic, I think it's patriotic without being overly emotional. The one line I like is where he speaks they're coming to America it's just a great song that.

    So cool you did this song. This was my brother's favorite song from him. he lived in San Francisco and came back to Kansas City back and forth. He said this song is how he felt. He passed away a few years ago. Every time I hear the song I think about him.

    Neil said this song was written during a transition in his life trying to decide who he was, where his music was heading and his life in general. It is a very intense emotional song when you see him perform it live, it almost brings tears to your eyes. America and Brother Love Traveling Salvation Show are two more intense songs.
