So sad today, I live in Memphis and it's been a sad week, Lisa Marie dying....but she will soon be with her dad, once again Memphis is dealing with death of the people who make Memphis what it is.....
This is a timeless tune that genius David C.!wrote. I have loved CS&N ever since I saw their very first performance which was Woodstock. They are amazing, David is amazing. I’ve never heard harmonics like this. David’s voice is so bluesy and strong. I love it. I might add that Stephen Stills is a very underrated guitarist. Stephen is incredible with the guitar. How did this go unnoticed, it’s crazy to meCS&N have given us sone of the most memorable and coolest tunes ever. Mourning your passing but celebrating your awesome life, you are very deserving of your great success David. Not saying goodbye but rather,see ya later. Rest easy friend, you are adored loved and will be sadly missed. Thank you for all the incredible tunes.🙏🕊💕🙏🕊💕🙏🕊💕🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
The emotion in this song and the way Crosby sings it come from a profound and dark place. It was inspired by an event that for some of us of a certain age was one of the most terrible events in a year filled with terrible events. Crosby wrote this on the night Bobby Kennedy was shot to death in 1968.
Don't know who listens to music, but history, here done, will never cease, without rock& roll gives no reason to breathe...at the Moment am 73 yrs , groovin' 58yrs...chuggin' ....
I’m reading Graham Nash‘s story “wild tales“, and he just mentioned that David Crosby wrote this song for Bobby Kennedy… Amazing man, nothing like David Crosby. He will be missed, and nobody makes music like these guys . Nobody.
Farewell David. Thank you for punctuating our wonderous musical years, we children of the 60's...at least we left behind something greater than before: the music...
My late partner and I had the privilege to see CSN twice here in Western Australia . 1986 and early 2000s. I'm 74 now. Just pure talent, no pathetic dance moves, no technological enhancement, just great musicians who knew their instruments and who could actually sing.
I saw them twice, too. The first time in 1977 (?) at Madison Square Garden and ten years later at the old Brendan Byrne Arena in beautiful Rutherford, NJ. I recall that Graham Nash said at that second concert that it was a miracle that David Crosby was still with us performing so well. I’m glad that Mr. Crosby continued to perform so exceptionally for many years after then. Requiem aeternam, Mr. Crosby.
Breathtaking, and every word applies to this moment, this hour, this very day, this year. Crosby's vocals convey the urgency, the lyrics wiping the scales from our eyes. Stills' mastery of his guitar solo is exceeds mastery to absolute artistry. Nash's harmony binds together the iconic genius of these three. In every sense, this performance is as prescient as it is powerful: it could have been a novel, a poem, a painting; instead they gave us this lasting gift of self-reflection as music during unspeakably dangerous times.
I was a senior at the University of Wisconsin, and campaigning for Robert Kennedy. I’d been to Indiana and Nebraska and would have been with him in California if I didn’t have my final finals in Madison! That few days completely changed the direction of my life!
R.I.P DAVID CROSBY. Thank you for your words and music. We all Love you Thank you. "All most cut my hair it happened just the other day It was getting kind of long"
This is one of my favorite songs by Crosby, its bluesy and soulful, and of course I always love to harmonize to it...So many ways you can harmonize to this song....Its fabulous!
I have been blessed to see different incarnations of these fine singers. I have seen Steven Stills solo, Crosby and Nash together, CS&N and also their buddy Neil Young solo. They are still amazing!
Saw CSN back in the 70s for the first time. Imagine the crowd's surprise when Neil Young showed up and did most of the show with them! Saw them again later sans Neil but saw Neil several times on his own. These guys can rock it all these decades later. RIP David.
Got to see them about 30 years ago at Universal Amphitheater. I was in my 30's and one of the young'un's there. Cool to see everybody with a drink in their hand and SITTING to watch the show. Best way to see a show, being able to just be mellow.
Thank you, thank you for your contributions to MUSIC! God Bless each of you! You guys are in my blood, mind, and soul. Peace and long live Rock and whatever makes you roll.
Thanks my friend Carimbo when I was in Peru to make me listen at my 12 years old such an extraordinary musicians. Crosby was a different singer. I recognise traces of jazz, folk, psichodelia and blues on his beautiful and powerful voice. You still survive mate RIP DC
*Long Time Gone* _Song by Crosby, Stills & Nash_ It's been a long time comin' It's goin' to be a long time gone. Appears to be a long time, Yes, a long, long, log time Before the dawn. Turn, turn any corner. Hear, you must hear what the people say, You know there's something that's goin' on here, That surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day. And it appears to be a long, Such a long, long, long time before the dawn. Speak out, you got to speak out against The madness, you got to speak your mind, If you dare. But don't try to get yourself elected. If you do you had better cut your hair. 'Cause it appears to be a long time, Before the dawn. It's been a long time comin', It's been a long time gone. But you know, the darkest hour, Is always just before the dawn. And it appears to be a long time, Such a long, long, long time before the dawn.
One of the best songs written by David Crosby. RIP Mr. Crosby, you were one of the greatest.
My favorite among the many great songs DC wrote and co-wrote.
Goodbye David Crosby. Thanks for the music. 2023
Rest in peace Crosby. This song will always be one of my favorites
So sad today, I live in Memphis and it's been a sad week, Lisa Marie dying....but she will soon be with her dad, once again Memphis is dealing with death of the people who make Memphis what it is.....
Deeply grateful for the musical legacy he left behind💔
No Gimmicks No fancy lights No choreography! Just pure raw rock n roll. Probably one of Still's best solo's. CSN are simply out of this world.
Great performers (artists) don't need gimmicks, thank God.
We can't call it rock and roll, I'd say

RIP David Crosby. 1-19-2023. A great loss to the world of music. A great loss to my generation and to me. A sad day.
When these guys pass, a small part of America will pass with them. Absolute perfection.
Absolutely
The music we've grown up with, and never to be forgotten.
Jim, ABSOLUTELY. They R Awesome, saw them twice once w Neil Young and once not, both times Amazing!!!
Couldn’t agree more they had there finger on the pulse of the world brother
And today we lose one of them. So sad. RIP David Crosby
The glorious Rock of the 60's and 70's will NEVER be beaten for every genre of music.
Those of us who lived it knew it was a special era.
David Crosby, you may be gone, but your music will be forever in the hearts of the baby boomer generation. 🙏 🪦.
Q UE MARAVILHA ...dispensa comentários...uma talagada de WHISKEY 60th years old!
The music many of us grew up with, and it is timeless. RIP David Crosby, and thank you.
LISTENED TO THIS ALBUM back in the early70s during summer days when nothing else to do.
Rest in peace to David Crosby. A pillar of 60's counterculture, and incredible musician with an iconic voice.
Despite being born in 1953 I was verrrrry late to the CSN(Y) party, mid 1990's I guess. So glad I made it. One of my top three bands ever!!!😁😁🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Always awesome. Crosby keeps the freak flag flying. One of the coolest cats to hit the stage. Best band ever.
David Crosby is my fave in the band.
I agree. The best
Passed away today 1/19/23
I rock my hair just like his ! Never cutting , grow the side and let it ride

I'm 70 I remember when I was 16 and heard this. A legendary band.
My soul is broken for him and his family. But he left the world a better place. Ultimate fan, loved his music.
RIP David Crosby
I loved Crosby Stills Nash and Young
The music of my youth.
Much Love to you ❤
Cros left us immeasurably richer for his being here, and no one will fill the hole he has left, a unique talent.
Einer der geilsten Songs! Ich bin wieder in Woodstock!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!
RIP, GOOD BYE!!!
Ageless. This is music. Never an era like 60s and 70s. Harmonious extacy. It moves the soul brother...
let's add 80s to that...you could go party and have fun or watch MTv and it was a great day
correct!
Hello 👋 & Thx’. World 🌎 Devastation but will always Rock’
My late partner and I had the privilege to see CSN twice here in Western Australia . 1986 and early 2000s. I'm 74 now. Just pure talent, no pathetic dance moves, no technological enhancement, just great musicians who knew their instruments and who could actually sing.
a very talented group of musicians ....they have left a great legacy ....thank you David Crosby for the pleasure you bought me.
US!!!
RIP David, true focking chill musician !
This is still relevant today. I remember being young when I hear this. I'm grateful to them for the talent that lasts.
Great solo, Mr. Stills!
For all that these guys have grown apart, they sure as hell put it aside to make some of the most beautiful music ever. The harmonies are to die for.
RIP David! Your music still lives on!
Crosby hasn't lost a bit of his voice in 50 years! Fantastic vocals!
Always remember this track being played on the opening sequence of the " Woodstock" Film in the cinema.......R.I.P. David Crosby....😮💨
I love David’s voice in this song.
Gritty and powerful ❤
What a voice...and harmonies. David could touch your heart and soul. An iconic artist who will be missed...enormously!!
Grazie 🙏 la vostra musica accompagnerà per sempre la mia vita
I'll miss you terribly. God Bless
RIP David. Thxx for all your music
Saw them twice always amazed how they could get 50,000 people to go silent. Acoustic Time Amazing.
I saw them twice also. The only two perfect concerts I've ever been to. 1977 and 1982.
I saw them twice, too. The first time in 1977 (?) at Madison Square Garden and ten years later at the old Brendan Byrne Arena in beautiful Rutherford, NJ.
I recall that Graham Nash said at that second concert that it was a miracle that David Crosby was still with us performing so well.
I’m glad that Mr. Crosby continued to perform so exceptionally for many years after then.
Requiem aeternam, Mr. Crosby.
A large part of America, you mean.
One of the Greatest Bands ever...RIP DAVID CROSBY...❤❤❤❤❤
Rest in peace M.Crosby. You're music Will star for forever. Love you.
Celebrate his life, music and be filled with the joy of a life well spent. No sadness for he and his music would want it no other way.
Breathtaking, and every word applies to this moment, this hour, this very day, this year. Crosby's vocals convey the urgency, the lyrics wiping the scales from our eyes.

These guys are proof that one great rock show can change the world!
What a fantastic song. Great lead by Stills. Crosby has a huge voice, wow! Fantastic guys. All CS and N. songs had MOOD and EMOTION.
I was a senior at the University of Wisconsin, and campaigning for Robert Kennedy.
I’d been to Indiana and Nebraska and would have been with him in California if I didn’t have my final finals in Madison!
That few days completely changed the direction of my life!
Will be a LONG TIME GONE, and I know I will never get over loss of the fantastic music from 60 years of Dave in my life, no dawn.
My class song 1972 … Antioch High School Panthers…Thank You for all the memories…😢
A fabulous book to read by David titled " Long Time Gone". An honest story of a man overcoming darkness. Must read biography!
Agree!
Brother David, still on top of my list of coolest hippies in history. You'll never be forgotten!

*Long Time Gone*
_Song by Crosby, Stills & Nash_
It's been a long time comin'
It's goin' to be a long time gone.
Appears to be a long time,
Yes, a long, long, log time
Before the dawn.
Turn, turn any corner.
Hear, you must hear what the people say,
You know there's something that's goin' on here,
That surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day.
And it appears to be a long,
Such a long, long, long time before the dawn.
Speak out, you got to speak out against
The madness, you got to speak your mind,
If you dare.
But don't try to get yourself elected.
If you do you had better cut your hair.
'Cause it appears to be a long time,
Before the dawn.
It's been a long time comin',
It's been a long time gone.
But you know, the darkest hour,
Is always just before the dawn.
And it appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, long time before the dawn.
