  • Heaven's soundtrack

  • SI

  • 11 people didn't like this video.

  • this song gives me goose bumps

  • It's interesting Gilmour says "We're gonna sing one of their songs for you," and they do a Stephen Stills' song... strange.

    Even so, amazing performance all the way. If CSN&Y need to replace Stephen for a tour, Gilmour's the man to do it!

  • I prefer the asian girl's (Chyi) cover of this song ..

    watch?v=0_zVnQTD0P8

  • @88feji That's like comparing apples and oranges. This is live and hers is not only done in the studio, but her voice is multi tracked as well. There is no truer test of ones vocal capabilities than something like this.

  • @tull1971

    Studio produced or not , I still prefer Chyi's cover .. but since hers is a cover, much credit still has to be given to Nash for being the original ..

  • Beautiful.......

    

  • lol gilmore should tour with crosby and nash, and stills can be the backup

  • Wow, how can you not like that? It was stunning - makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.

  • Absolutely beautiful <3 I lovelovelove David Gilmour and CSN&Y and to see Glimour, Crosby, and Nash together singing one of the most gorgeous and emotional songs out there brings tears to my eyes <3

  • The best hymn ever.

  • I dedicate this to all the Wallstreet Protesters across the world. VICTORY!!!

  • those 10 dislikes must be justin boober fans

  • FLAWLESS AND INSPIRING !

  • Perfectly executed.

  • music in its deffinition. perfection at its finest. simply put.

  • THIS. THIS is so good. SO GOOOOD

  • one ofe the best ever...csn&gilmore?.....they had it!!!!!

  • one ofe the best ever...csny 7& gilmore?.....they had it!!!!!

  • I will lay my body down for you, my llove.

  • Some inspiring "grey hair" there...

    Talent never grows old...

  • Is a emotionally touching prayer.

  • stunning...

    

  • decente

    

  • wow, gave me chills ... Crosby, Gilmour & Nash, nice

  • amazing !!!! no words

  • Thank all the powers that are that these dudes have chosen to bless us by growing old gracefully and continuing to sharing their beautiful talents with us rather than spinning out early like so many others in their industry :-) David Gilmour is just my number one hero and I still thrash my Crosby Stills Nash and Young albums no matter what permutation or combinations of those guys, I guess true genius is ever lasting.

  • what show is this?.....SICK!!

  • @RDNHGH

    It's in the description.

  • How blessed am I that it's only 2 minutes long... I almost died of happiness.

  • Wow , man ! I got chills from that .

  • Three great voices!!

  • With musicians like that it makes me think there is hope for the world after all :-)

  • @Findel5 These gentlemen are the last of a kind that no longer exist , as listeners we will be in our darkenend rooms with our dusty dvds reliving a time that has long gone ,,,,,, i will do it with a smile

  • This is a fantastic version of this song. Initially it was about four students, killed by soldiers, while exercising their constitutional right to assemble and petition the government for redress of their grievances. As time passes, it begs you to think about ALL lives that are taken and weigh the cost.

    It's not a rallying point for flag wavers, it's a plea for peace.

  • JUST BEYOND WORDS......

  • EPIC IS RIGHT!!!

  • BEAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTIFUL!

    I always loved that song, and having David Gilmour taking part just puts the tin lid on it. Magic!

  • wich one is crosby and wich one is nashh??

    

  • @chicho2190 Crosby looks like the walrus (epic mustache), Nash is the one who looks like a banker. I assume you know Gilmour is the one holding the guitar? ;)

  • why is the other like button upside down?

  • 9 people couldn't find the cost of freedom

  • they are singing about weed?

  • Comment removed

  • Tremendous harmonies, amazing music. Current in the 70's and also today. These guys still have it after all these years!

  • Superbe, great voices!

  • one word: great! absolument génial

  • wow, cant hear a sound from that crowd!

  • Thumbs up if you´re high....

  • Dear God!!!! perfection!!!!!

  • There is a very epic and gorgeous cover version of this song sung by a Taiwanese female singer , listen to it .. it will blow your mind away -

    watch?v=0_zVnQTD0P8

  • 9 people display the taste of a small soap dish.

  • Land of the free, home of the brave? You're only as free as your least exercised right, and only as brave as the last right you exercised without seeking permission. The more appropriate finale would better read: land of the servile, home of the submissive. -- redthumb

  • Liberty: she is a tiresome burden. She is indeed a high maintenance bride. Though she demands the utmost fidelity and the expense of great unrelenting effort to protect and watch over her from those who wish to violate her; in return she promises, by proportionate degree, those who do with abundant prosperity, dignity and honor. Cherish her always for she is nothing without you; and you are nothing without her. -- redthumb

  • wow!!....

  • 9 people prefer to live as slaves.

  • That was gorgeous. Wish they'd done all of Daylight Again/Find The Cost of Freedom that way, though.

  • We must not let freedom and liberty slip from our hands.

  • absolutely the best harmonizing i have ever heard....EXCELLENT

  • seven people obviously hit the wrong button on their computer

  • Very appropriate song for Memorial Day. Thank you to all who served, and bless you to all who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country and all of us.

  • Tune into HDNet May 22nd 7:30pmET to watch Crosby-Nash: In Concert, Broadcast LIVE from the Palace Theatre in Stamford, Connecticut.

  • They should make a whole album harmonizing together.

  • @ryanb113n I agree with you. This is a lesson to learn harmonies.

  • You can hear a pin drop in that arena.  That's what I like to call POWER.

  • Yes, The high cost of freedom....Remember,There is one who paid the cost for freedom for us all....Yet on the third day,He rose again!!! to save us all!

  • i cant hit the like button enough to even express how i feel

  • love it !!!!!!!

  • harmony .

  • cool voice guys

  • this value is missing in our government, they call us radicals and terrorists now

  • WOW!

    

  • God Bless America!!!

    

  • It just doesn't get any better than that, does it?

  • oh this accapella!!!...woooow

  • Pink Floyd and CSNY

  • Priceless

    

  • Man! This is almost too much. And we all know Exactly what they're singing about. Gives me chills.

  • So much said in less than 20 words.

  • A great song for Lent.

  • Where is Stills?

  • This just effin' kicks ass.

  • play!

  • Lot of times, you go wrong, it's because you forgot something. This is one.

  • May our children's children be inspired by this song in their search for freedom. A song that will truly be a classic.

  • 'Like" button?? where is the EPIC button???

    

  • Who the hell disliked this?

  • @infatuationnation probably people that thought it was the hockey players.

  • AMAZING!

  • It was written by Stephen Stills.

  • Sorry, i think this song was composed by Neil Young.

  • @nmgaravito Nope - Neil wrote a lot of great songs, including Helpless, which CSNY did, but this is Stephen Stills all the way....

  • @ben909ben You're right, sorry!

  • Damn they sound good together/

  • Oh my God! What a GREAT rendition of this classic!

  • WOW

  • This Song belongs to the ages. this will be the song sung at my gravesite after they lower the coffin nad cover it

  • This is the best of Hollies, Byrds and Pink Floyd

  • You are soo right!!

  • I thought this was about NHL

  • makes one cry

  • They sound better with David than they do with Stephen on this track.

  • Excellent Harmony!

    thanks for posting this one.

  • This song is more topical & relevant today than ever. Down with the "new world order" facist scum >>> Freedom for All >>> God Bless us All >>> Thanks, GCN...

  • Those pauses are so tough, for a non-band, but these guys are pros!

    (plus, the pauses weren't that long. Still, there's no hiding if you miss your moment)

    Great song!

  • I could listen to this a 1oo times in a row it really speaks to me!

  • wow.....so much class!!!!! and for the people claiming to hear autotune, really have not idea what autotune sounds like. this is an awesome harmony though.

  • Three greats of Rock n Roll singing another great man's tune!

  • Beautiful. A Stills song 

  • Not a lot of chaps can get on stage will Gilmour who have been famous for great music even longer than he has! Crosby was almost the original hippie, as he's been flying his "freak flag" a VERY long time.

  • sublimity.

  • They do sound good together.... but I hate to say this. I can hear the auto-tune, especially on Grahams voice. They sound a little robotic in places.

  • fantastic!

  • This is SO relevant today!

  • @laydeezman217 unfortunately it will always be relevant

  • I love such blending of voices. I just love it... Oh, how I love it!

  • yur just not gonna get any better then that.

  • thank you very much!

  • God, this is good. Makes my life better.

  • Einfach fantastisch. Nicht zu toppen.

  • it dont get any better than this

  • I am speechless!

  • That was amazing....whoa.

  • This is an astonishing song. Their voices are nearly perfect. And no instruments! Can any group do this today? Imagine P Diddy. Jay Z. Blah!

  • nash has mouth like drawer :D

  • anyone know how to download the audio? i'd love to add this to my ipod.

  • @barbaralw - I downloaded to Real Player, transferred to iTunes -- video and all -- loaded on iPod - wasn't sure how to separate the audio!

  • To silence a hall full of so many people...

  • Take it , Graham...

  • Got to love Crosby, Gils and Nash.

  • Wow ! Beautiful ! Nowadays, they'd probably get kicked off American Idol for not having "The Look".

  • AMAZING!

  • R.I.P David Crosby. Your music lives on!

  • @bigcheese1973

    Damm it David Crosby is still alive !!!!

  • @bigcheese1973

    RIP??

    What???

    He's alive the last I checked.

  • no one will ever do it better.

  • Just amazing ! wouldnt expect anything less of these three performers..Gilmours own skills fit seemlessly into Stephen stills part. such amazing voices they all have. Also, when have you ever seen a live concert where the people showed such restraint and respect to keep this quiet during a song? ...lol..wow !

  • @Rayyvyn

    i think everybody in this crown knew, that they are about to witness something big, something that you propably will never HEAR/see again. and so that everyone in the audience could enjoy this and you not miss a single note/word, they just had to sh.. the f... up !

    this is simply brilliant !

  • They still sound great

  • Completely BAD ASS. that is all.

  • @KoRn1a7x2 my all timj 5 favorite singers are Lennon , Crosby , Justing Hayward , Jack Bruce , and David Gilmour . Jimi Hendrix said that Graham Nash was one of his favorite . Whatever -- 3 of the absolute best up thetre in my opinion - sure sounds damn good .

  • In 1970 I heard CSNY in concert - when they did their a cappella set, it Was that quiet. It was a large venue, full house, and you could have heard a pin drop. Unfortunately, subsequent CSN w/wout Y were never that quiet again - audience just ignoring the pleas of David and Graham to be quiet so they could hear each other and stay in pitch. This lovely performance was just stellar - thank you for posting it.

  • amazing.

  • Perfection what else needs to be said !!

  • Sometimes laying down your life for freedom means standing up for what you believe. And...especially for NOT standing up when others tell you to~

  • Where can I find a version of this that's longer? Or perhaps another trio song by these guys that's also gorgeous?

  • cool...crosby, nash and gilmour...

  • WOW!!!!!

  • Processed vocals... Definitely auto tune!

  • @SolGiant

    Ha. Very funny.

  • @SolGiant

    what is wrong with you?

  • @rckymtnhighs haha! i didnt realize that was offensive! i hear its cool though all the rappers are doing it!

  • first thing appeared in the earth with life!!!!!!!!

  • If this doesn't give you chills... go listen to Britney Spears or Lady GaGa

  • @dbcoll1957 if this doesn't give you chills then you have no soul!

  • Today 04-05-2010 it's the sixtie- fifth time that all the people in the Netherlands remember all the brave men and women who gave their lives for freedom in Europe.

    This wonderful song, performed by three exquisite and beautiful voices, sounds so special on a day like this and it gives me goose bumbs.

  • This song has always given me the chills.

  • wow what david gilmour adds to their harmony is unbelievable. im waitin' for a crosby stills nash & gilmour tour... mmmm that would be wonderful

  • First saw CSN & Y play this 40 years ago. Still gives me chills.

  • at :47, when they harmonize the voices.. it's just crazy! The tempo of the song just cuts my breath... great musicians!

  • LOVE THIS, thank you SO much for posting!

  • thanx for sharing!

  • This is absolutely amazing.

    I can't say anything further than... wow.

  • chills....

  • Shiver

  • the voices are explosive!

  • quelles belles voix , belle rencontre, merci !

  • amazing :' )

  • Looking for the complete original song from the album "so far" that can be posted to FB. If anyone can find it, that would be greatly appreciated, thanks. I have the song on my hard drive, but that cannot be uploaded to FB. Find it odd, I can't find the original here or in any form that can be posted to my FB page since it is such a great song.

  • I have been looking for the original version of this song from the album to post somewhere but have not been able to find it anywhere? which is strange because it is such a great song. If anyone knows where I can find an original copy of the song I could upload to my FB page, that would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

  • possibly the best song ever written sung by the best group of peaple ever assembled

  • Great!!!

  • wow.........

  • Fantastic!

  • excellent

  • Hehe still needs Stills.........

    georgeous tho'

  • chills down my spine everytime, now with david gilmours voice, thbis song is like angels singing you to sleep

  • Beautiful song by Stephen Stills. Funny that it would be performed without him there to join in. These guys nailed it.

  • After all, who is Gilmour? A guitarist? Arranger? Commander of a ship's Music? Actually today, I do not know exactly define Mr. Gilmour. No words for this song. Let's just listen and enjoy.
