I play and sing this myself. It is an easy song to learn to play, but...to actually WRITE something like this takes the mega-talent of a Neil Young! Awesome song! Neil is a true giant among singer/songwriters! The dozen or so people who gave this the thumbs down obviously know very little about good music!
@leander24 Something like "Are you sitting comfortable twosquare on your body, then we'll begin." Whatever it is, I can only imagine what it would be like to be really stoned and encounter that.

i always listen to pearl jam, nirvana, alice in chains, stone temple pilots, soundgarden but someone tell me: NEIL YOUNG is the GODFATHER of all grunge bands! now all neil youn songs have the power of touch my heart!
it is sad...how much i love precisely this version of the song, and i can't find it in mp3. i don't mind turning to youtube everytime i need it to listen it though, which is pretty often. pure magic
Thank you for sharing that, I can feel the depth of your love and longing for your late husband. When I was a teenager in the 70s, I suffered undiagnosed, clinical depression. Neil's longing is expressed so beautifully in this song that it made me feel there is hope for love for all of us. I am here today partly because of Neil's humanity and talent.

Raine, that is a very touching story. It speaks to me. When I was suffering depression while a teenager, this song gave me hope. Neil shared his longing for love in such a heart warming way made me believe that certainly there must be hope for all of us. He turned suffering into love with such beauty that it still leaves me feeling hope for humanity. Thank you.

i sang this song to my husband from the time he made it to the nite before he died. i did what he wanted me to do put a heart on his headstone with our song heart of gold written in , hearing it again makes me sad every word from being a miner and traveling the world, he found love at home his local barber shop with me his new barber....raine
My 14 year old learned this over the last week or so. A friend gave him a harmonica and he got to work on this song. The next day he was begging for a head piece for the harmonica. He already knew the guitar chords (excuse any bad teminology, I play no instuments) and for a couple of days he worked this song over until finally he had it. He sat me and mom down and played it last night. Tears of pride and joy fell down my wife's cheek and awe overcame me. This song continues to touch souls.
a soul and a heart of gold ik zet in stand morgen myn plans is bellen ik weet niet hoe jy woont maar daar ben jy ook niet duidelyk in ik type het niet ivm plaatsen
i heard this song on the radio one night in my car and could never find out who it was. one day i took my dad to the cd store and he never knew about cds or anything, me and my dad had a complicated relationship (he died in 08) anyway he picks up this neil young album and i decide to listen on the thingy in the store and right there on the list was heart of gold so i near shit myself and bought the album.. true story.. i also like needle and the damage done. thats a song we could both relate to
THE "B" SIDE SUGAR MOUNTAIN IS JUST AS GOOD (WAS OFTEN PLAYED IN A PUB I USED TO WORK IN (BACK IN 1972) WAS FREQUNTED BY ALOT OF STUDENTS (FROM READING UNIVERSITY) WHICH WAS JUST A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY.
had no idea until today this song was older than me!!!!! sheesh frist time i heard it was in a pub in southampton in about 93 we plaYED IT TO DEATH FOR MONTHS just fecking great
Why would they destroy a good video by putting stupid comments into it, well all i have to say is we live to die & die to live, your heart is as pure as gold only if you desire to look as you feel. My comment is to all & all to my comment.
I have completed a critical inspection of this shabby, hirsute and hysterical Neanderthal girl. I confidently offer my assessment of the young trollop. A slattern of equal aspect has not, nor is likely to ever grace the stage. This frightful young woman yowls and screeches in a feral manner, the tenor of which reminds me of those wayward felines trapped and beaten nightly by my forthright and stalwart groundsman, James. Surely this girl was raised by wild beasts. James! Hurry!
sometimes I think about how amazing it is that an honest guy with a real gift to give the world, this Neil Young, I wonder how in the hell he became famous in a world full of gimmicky lameness. I have no idea, but I'm grateful that he got one over on the money grabbers.
Neil Young actually said he hates this song and so did Bob Dylan. This is ironic since this song was actually Neil Young's biggest hit. Bob Dylan hated it because it sounded like something he would have produced and Neil probably because he didn't like to be mainstream. So... I think that makes Neil pretty damn cool =).
you cant beat this song when its the end of the night and my typing is impressing my brother rock on neil love you because at my brothers funeral we played harvest moon ., he dies too fucking young dude, I love him with all my heart
he's wearing the same clothes as 1971 when he introduced his new song Heart of Gold.
