Canta Libre Neil Diamond

[ZenyattaFan4ever]

Best versions of this song and several others found on Hot August Night 1972. Even after nearly 40 years, never gets old.

[Dannyvs1967]

Mede door mijn vader heb ik in de jaren 70 kennis gemaakt met deze geweldige muziek. Tot op de dag van vandaag krijg ik nog kippenvel van zijn nummers. Nu is mijn vader overleden en door deze muziek denk ik nog heel vaak aan hem.

[ChihuahuaboyDH]

Canta Libre, canta vida! Viva Neil Diamond! See, Neil can sing in Spanish, too!

Bravo, Neil!

[alexafagan]

Music comes and goes, we hear new songs, but listen to the old ones now and again, how lovely this sounds...think I might listen to it again

[fishmarauder]

Every song has it's own kind of meaning!

[antropopitecus64]

from Guatemala Neil Diamond Lo Maximo!!!

[robertrivasphotos]

Su Cantan muy bien!

This man has touched my soul for so many years . In 1972 I gave birth to a baby girl 3 months too early and she was given no chance of survival ; however we both did and when I brought her home 3 months later , she had no night or day having been in the intensive care unit ; most nights I walked the floor with her with Neil Diamond singing just for us ; thank you Neil .

[smedegaard1000]

When I was 18, (some 35 years ago) I met the most wonderfull girl. The first night we were together, we listened to Canta Libre several times... So that song means a lot to me...

[jordan04n]

Often I think u do this just for me....in need of a song...yr style I like very much...will we ever meet....thanks.... hugs from afar

[diezrosales]

I dedicate this song to my brother Alberto, who died last year. Before he got sick, he asked me to translate it into Spanish. It will always remind me of him. Thank you.

[webemorgans]

So very beautiful. One of my very favorites. He knows the soul like no other.

[pappy15445]

tremendous song my friend --and celebrate with me --THE MAN is in the hall --yesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WalkerBros4Ever]

Totally forgot about this album "Moods". Used to have it... don't know why I got rid of it.... must have been out of my head. Love his music.... Stones, Play me, Solitary man, Holly holy, Done too soon, Song sung blue. I am I said, Soolaimon, Sweet Caroline, Brother Love's TSS, ...... all fabulous songs.... and so many more besides.

[sonjainge69]

let me make one exception in reference to today's artists: celtic woman, worthy successors of people like diamond,stevens etc....

[sonjainge69]

neil diamond, simon and garfunkel, the beatles, the brothers four......

there are artists that are WAY above everybody else.....

like a mozart or beethoven were in the past. sorry to say, i don't see that talent , personality, art, just genius anywhere today.....

[1950butterflybak]

" I've got music running in my head...makes me feel like a young bird flying."

"Keeps me away from the thought of dieing."

How haunting and beautiful the words to this song of freedom are. Brilliant!

[TheNearBastet]

This is the best song of Neil Diamond !! His voice and his guitar make him so wonderfull

[pappy154451956]

another soul reaching gem May his music live forever

[MyCarla27]

Great song!! Thank you!

[nmestora]

Very good, I like the picture...

[trebormf]

Always loved this song.

[danceswithcrayons]

Enjoying your imaginative creation with the song too! Butterflies, color, even cubism paintings. Great stuff! Now here we are, 3 months later and I am going to Spain! : )

[dawnjakeleah]

I think Neil plays that wonderful guitar. He also has a great guitar player behind him, but if you watch the video he picks the awesome riffs. I wish he still played his guitar like that, but good grief, he pushing 70. I have a hard time remembering all my numbers in my head when I go shopping. Love the man forever.

[maestro22121]

i love this! it made my day! love him speaking spanish!

[bridger012]

Was het hoogte punt toen Neil in Nederland optrad. Prachtig gevoelig lied.

[jgmacv]

Outstanding.  In fact, this whole album ("Moods"), is some of his best work, I believe!

[trez3g]

"Makes me feel like a young bird flying..."

In the words of Greg Khin:

"They Don't Write Like That Anymore"

[KdeKingz]

5 stars is way too few for this magnificent song (but it's all we get). Thanks for posting!

[gmichaelhall]

Thank you so much for posting this beautiful music. When performed on the Hot August Night show at the Greek Theater Canta Libre took the show into an overture that built into a performance that is arguably one of the greatest live recorded shows ever. Bravo 4evermore12..

[batears2000]
