Neil Young: Sweet Joni ~UnReleased~ with vIDeo

[chiennoir54]

Wow. I had this on an old bootleg back in the mid-70s. And haven't heard this since. Very raw, but kind of nice, too.

[gtarz40ful]

geez! you canadians are all alike!

@88hanimart88 Thanks Annie...

I enjoy this song too...

[pattylibraia]

Halleluja! Peace and love to you and to everybody, and thank you for your words:-)

[pattylibraia]

That's really interesting: he sounds just like Kurt Cobain, don't you think so? It's incredible. Always great Neil. Ty cg. By the way, happy Easter! Always a new life along our way on this earth.

[curiousgeorge555]

@pattylibraia Yeah i s'pose he does in spots. I never noticed. Happy Eater to you.

The wonderful thing about life is even when things are looking down, there always seems to be a road out with new windows opening to new life. Sometimes ya just gotta stare out long enough and smell the fresh air and maybe crawl out of the window into the garden. Course you could always use the door. (~:

This really sucks. I guess it was some kind of a joke. His voice sounds like he was on a drug and booze bender for about 7 years. Mr. Young definitely had more than a few screws loose when he wrote and sung this crap.

[curiousgeorge555]

I can understand someone not liking something. That's cool. I can assure you this is no "joke" though. One could make the argument that it is not his best work (much of that is subjective anyway) but he meant what he wrote. As far as the performance that night I can't vouch for what condition he was in.

Neil has quite a sense of humor and uses it often (even in his music) but he takes his music very seriously. None of it is some frivolous joke to him. Peace ~cg

Hello cg5 how do you do?

I like very much your work in this video but i don't know the Joni Mitchell's song.I love the colors of the video and the atmosphere (feeling,) ambiance en français. Congratulations to you. My english is so poor for an interesting conversation! I am sorry!

Best wishes .K.

[majorhoop]

thanks its so great to see this available. i got the bootleg of this a long time ago and its been one of my favorite neil young songs ever since. can anyone figure out what he says after "so watch your head...."? i never could......

[lfrey13]

"this message read"

[emersonwells]

this man sees red

[majorhoop]

for thirtysome years now thats how ive been hummin it to myself........i think it might be a line he hadnt polished and just kind of threw in unfinished-like........

[FelixSmartFossum]

Wow. First I hear this. Thanx. Nice vid, too :)

[ritealoser007]

this is a great song. and I have never heard that intro from her either. Great info you have here.

And great work on the video, too! You have some talent, man.

[yahowa57]

recorded in-of all places-Bakersfield!

[RosyB9]

[curiousgeorge555]

[Powderfinger07]

Thanx for turning me onto a song I'd never heard before...peace

[curiousgeorge555]

My pleasure Powderfinger07.

Peace to you too. ~cg

[hinsy]

I thought it was Stupid Girl from Zuma that he had wrote for her ... the video is good as always, cg5, but somehow I understand why this song wasn't released.

[curiousgeorge555]

Howdy hinsy. well she is from Saskatoon...

Neil has 10 zillion songs. Gotta leave some out for some reason or another.

~cg

[NanaHippi]

Beautiful! I spent the 60's in Winnipeg and also used to go see The Guess Who at the local hockey rink on weekends. LOL!

[curiousgeorge555]

Cool! no pun intended. (-; ~cg

[quedorf]

Great find. Any Neil is always appreciated. This one is new to me. Thanks

[curiousgeorge555]

Yeah. The funny thing about Neil is even the stuff that may not be considered his best is ususally at least interesting and can draw you in. His "least" is many times better than many others "greatest". ~cg

[quedorf]

absolutely true. Well said.

[smoke117]

I have the bootleg. I believe this is the only time he ever played it live and it was never recorded.

[curiousgeorge555]

I've heard the same thing about the only live performance. Who really knows? Neil Young is the likeliest candidate (-; ~cg

[syroste]

Amazingly beautiful song!

Thanks for sharing!

[curiousgeorge555]

My great pleasure!

~cg
