Crosby Stills Nash - Carry On / Questions

[tattoofthesun]

i love that you can hear him slammin on that acoustic. it makes it powerful in all areas

[AscarinVin]

I like the dog on the album cover :D

[causeandeffect81]

You could here the future generations here. Spectacular harmony!

[joebstarsurfer]

Roadtrip so bored of the middle classes .

[bsyrmas]

CLASSIC

[michelfantin1]

Just carry on...

[doughnuteater]

The beginning IMHO sounds more like Yes than CSNY.

The second part. Yeah baby! I love that part! It's like leaving work and traffic is congested downtown and it's humid and you're trying to get to your car and back home LOL. 

[ctweebee]

@doughnuteater For me it's London, England and smoking hash in Hyde Park. Since this predates Yes, Yes doesn't equate, but sounds like Yes to me, not CSNY.

[pbrucpaul]

Classic CSN&Y. That Fuzz guitar and Bass, not to mention that harmony are Surreall. They put on a tremendous concert at the Oaklland Colliseum in '74!

[tifredic]

... AND YOUNG !! Don't forget Neil please ! omg ...

[EllenB1977]

Love this so much!

[dodgeman1989]

Eight people want a ass beating.

[pardon3000]

Play this when u wake up..excellent!

[orenico96]

I love this studio version. The playing is great on the live versions I've heard on You Tube, but the vocals on most are awful. So it's great to hear this version with the vocals clear and tight.

Thanks. Brings back a lot of memories. I played this vinyl everyday when I was 12 or 13. It had just come out.

[ctweebee]

@orenico96 Didn't it just blow your mind?!? It did mine.

[dajdooley]

Such a great song. They just don't make 'em like this anymore. I enjoy all types of music, but this is a true classic. Wow, 'the questions of a thousand dreams', they simply don't make 'em like this anymore. 'Carry on' and Peace out!!!

[17319521]

Where will be tomorrow! A venti anni la pensavo cosi'.... che bello sarebbe tornare indietro.

[joebstarsurfer]

Roadtrip get the hell out of my cold country.

[ripper58]

one morning i woke up

[matambale]

@ripper58 and I knew you were really gone

[Smecoolyo]

if not for my mom I'd know nothing of this genre of music ;)

[1stSaintsFan]

@Smecoolyo // I have a 14yr old dtr who like this and most of her old man's music...Good music can be found in the modern age..it just doesn't bubble up very frequently...Autotune and computers instead of voice and players...

[Tellie72]

1969-1970---great music!!!!!!



[chloe3018]

there will be truth when you are done

[Ktonrider]

Back then, the magic word was harmonization, unfortunately now it is autotune...

[pbrucpaul]

I remember listening to this on Earphones when the "Deja Vu" album came out. I loved it! That Bass, Harmony, and Steven Stills playing that lead were just too Trippy and great.

[bcbcbcbcdc]

Wow, this is indenticle to Led Zeppelins "Friends"

[gordon7443]

@bcbcbcbcdc

identical? not really........... acoustic guitar sound?....try playing them at the same time .......miles apart

but both brilliant

[angelbe88]

"Love is coming to us all"

[jimi1234567]

60's now!

[TheBoonggaboongga]

Graham Nash has, perhaps, the best high harmony vocals in rock history.

[CHC4669]

All time great classic. They sound incredible.

[chaniejbernard]

Thanks a bunch for uploading this, definatly my favorite Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young song

[Catlovertea4]

Yes! The best of the best.

[trdidion]

The best

[Vox572X]

Crosby, Stills, Nash & YOUNG .... =)...=D!

[QuietSunday]

"Questions" is in the title of the song because that's what it was first, when Stills wrote and performed it with Buffalo Springfield. When CSNY needed one more song for Deja Vu, and were exhausted and out of time, Stills came up with this combined version (according to Graham Nash) overnight.

[pbrucpaul]

The Fuzz lead guitar (i'm thinking Steven Stills) and that Harmony are beautiful '60's sound. But Who is playing that Bass!? WOW!

[ChicagoKid5]

@pbrucpaul The bass player is Greg Reeves, mentioned on the album cover.

[heyjoesilver]

@lefty77713: That's Graham Nash. Listen carefully; there are only three voices on this song. Young sings only on the songs on this album that he wrote.

[Ktonrider]

This is for real! My little girls are 2 1/2 and 6 months and I CANT WAIT until they can hear music like this and experience it... This is the real thing, as powerful as it gets...

[zackysbitch6661]

2:05 BEST part of the song!! <3

[orenico96]

@zackysbitch6661

I agree! But I also like 2:11 when the drums enter!

[Tellie72]

i lot of memories.....

[6inch6inch]

carry on with no questions goodby my love

[Radres12345]

You guys also forgot Dallas Taylor and Greg Reeves.

[heyjoesilver]

@nandho5: True, this song is on a Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young *album*. However, there's no audible evidence that Neil Young performs on this song, either vocally or instrumentally. My educated guess is that it's just CSN.

[lefty77713]

@heyjoesilver

what? how is it possibly to not hear him contributing at least the high vocals in "carry onnnn, love is coming, love is coming to us all" 1:54-2:07

[OldSpiceRatherNice]

It just doesnt get any better than this!!! This is when songs had " Heart and Soul" written right into them. Hippie days were groovy days!!! Far out!!! (: Music was real then, full of real emotions and feelings, bands had real talent, not computer generated crap, bands actually played instruments, imagine that!!! Music just made sense then. We lost it along the way, we really did..... a real shame.

[dbt1160]

@OldSpiceRatherNice You know it. NObody does it like this anymore. It still gives me gooseflesh. Vocals, guitars, just quality upon quality.

[dritch11]

I feel bad for people who don't know this kind of music. This song is incredible

[MurasalaKid318]

If I could put into words precisely how brilliant this song is... Gah! The bass line alone is unreal!

[MeltsMyHeart]

Why do you have "questions" in the title? It kind of makes the title confusing. But thanks for posting this great song.

[Max11551]

@MeltsMyHeart 'Cause "Questions" is the second part of the title of this song, I suppose. ;)

[swordshine52]

I'm 12 in 2011. I still like it. I like lots of music. Even some rap. Disco, metal, it's all music, and I appreciate it. It's a wonderful time to be alive, even with that Justin Bieber kid.

[1stSaintsFan]

I was 12 in 1969...Good luck young people..We are pulling for you guys to make it...Just don't ask for everything we got to make us all miserable...

[1stSaintsFan]

Yeah it was great being born a late stage baby boomer in 1969...This music is timeless...Like Hendrix, Doors, Beatles, etc....Pure Greatness...Today kicking back drinking Cajun MoFo Mojitos on the Bayou and life is good...Protest away Wall St.Suckers....We got ours..Now it is your turn...Burn your draft cards...oh yeah no draft...Burn your Bras...Oh yeah more chicks graduating from college than dudes...Well tax everyone and pay off my student loans...Not a Chance!!!

[buchananstreet]

still sounds great  in 2011

[Komodoensis]

So good.

[herbigame]

@LarryRickenbacker Naw, I think it is about his toothbrush

[saketorasan]

CROSBY、STILLS、NASH ＆ YOUNG／Carry On

世紀の傑作「デジャヴ」のオープニングを飾る、素晴らしいハーモ­ニーの一曲。その昔、ガロが完コピしてるのを目のあたりにして感­動した記憶がある。

[headforthehillsDI]

That's 100% true. This was the first album with Neil Young. His contribution can not be overlooked. It was an awesome album.

[nandho5]

This is a Crosby, Stills, Nash & YOUNG song; please, correct the vid title

[ChicagoKid5]

@nandho5 While the album is rightfully credited to CSNY, the truth is that Neil Young did NOT play on this song.

[nandho5]

@ChicagoKid5 So, we have to credit "Yesterday" only to Paul McCartney, since the other beatles did not play on that song; and so credit Eleanor Rigby; and credit The Ballad of John and Yoko only to Paul and John, and 4 + 20 only to Stills and...Come on!!

[ChicagoKid5]

@nandho5 That's not what I was implying. It is something Neil revealed in an interview some years ago. Just stating the facts, so why don't you COME ON???

[nandho5]

@ChicagoKid5 And so did John Lennon and Paul McCartney, in many interviews...Come on!!!

[ChicagoKid5]

@nandho5 Dude, get a life, and quit criticizing people who are just trying to put out information for interested fans.

[nandho5]

@ChicagoKid5 I don't have any problem. Just trying to help you to be correct about the vid infos you post. Youtube is a public space, and if you don't like critics, go back to your room, your bed and your nice dreams – alone...

[ChicagoKid5]

@nandho5 I'm just here trying to pass along info. If you have a problem with what people post here, you have a problem with yourself.

[StanBennet]

@ChicagoKid5 I'm just an innocent bystander. How do you know this? I don't pretend to know anything but I love being educated.

[ChicagoKid5]

@StanBennet I read it somewhere in an interview Neil gave some years ago.

[hahahaha517]

@nandho5 nandho5, youre name is appropriate because you are a whore. go suck a big fat cock

[csunday95]

Dat harmony

[silkencloud]

Such an incrdible era for music.. we clung to our music.. and never looked back.

CSNY was our utopia.. in so many ways...

[MrNicespaces]

my amp doesn't have "11!"

[headforthehillsDI]

I gravitate towards this song, It's heavens' harbinger.

[beerway72]

seven people hate good music. i personally love it!

[my2cents2u]

Swing Vote brought me here. Hadn't heard this song in 30 odd years. How I loved this group and their music. Going to look up my favorite now - Teach Your Children Well. Thanks for posting this. Like stepping into a time machine! :-)

[silkencloud]

@my2cents2u Open those doors..and look what there is to see... teach your children well..

[zolomasta1969]

god this song sends me goosebumps every fucking time i hear it. Its like a time machine, if i close my eyes i can go to a place of harmony and peace lol

[jim15ratm]

This sounds like Friends by Led Zeppelin.

[ask123321]

i love this song - thanks for posting this! :)

always,

amy

[jimmyskytrain]

It just doesn't get any better!!!!!

[MrMeuludine]

i feel 40 years old younger :)

[rossobass420]

No one can harmonize like CSNY.

[chinafakeeggs]

@rossobass420

True, this is excellent vocal harmony!

[xsurfnturfx]

Why isn't Young's name in the title?

[SounResinite]

@xsurfnturfx Young actually wasn't on this song.

[xsurfnturfx]

@SounResinite Oh alright. Thanks for clearing that up! Rock on!

[compabutch]

@RakyMaky - Thanks for posting, I came looking to hear exactly this song and wouldn't have found it here if you hadn't!

[charadeyouareha]

after being in love with the Floyd I realize just how short a 4 minute song is.

[poporolo1086]

JUST GREAT!!!!

[pbrucpaul]

Oh do I remember this album!! Steven stills, Crosby, and Nash you did have such a Pulse on the times back then!! Beautiful Bass. I heard this on Headphones and just tripped on it!

[WVSUfan]

this is THE shit, people! REJOYCE And resist, the day of your deliverance is at hand, all you have to do is stand up and claim it....the truth was true then and IT IS STILL true today...CARRY ON! FUCKIN"CARRY ON!

[75RayJay]

still fantastic

[StanBennet]

What the hell happened? All of a sudden people are flocking to this video!

[martijndejong1996]

i am 14 year old and i listing too this music an i have it on lp

[brakspbfun]

Such a powerfull beat!

[RadulaKisses]

This song... this band is too good for me to try to sum up in words.

[theirishhateyou]

God I've listened to this so many times I think I'm like half of the fucking views at this point. This song is so fucking unreal.

[MySolomon77]

no greater harmony ever

[Abudu1956]

Go to Grooveshark. They have at least 20 different versions.

[cptmrgn318]

@counthavalmal your grandma kicks ass!

[OdeToTristan]

@cptmrgn318 Agreed!

[TheMonster027]

@OdeToTristan wooooooowwwwww........im in trippy land



[rfranklinw1]

there is no better harmony ever ----------none "love is coming to us all" if angels existed they would sound like that

[birdwomn]

Amen to the best classical rock band. Lyrics, tune, voices, instruments, and their unique sound. Thank you for all these years.  Especially Stills.

[9bennyben]

This is my favorite classical rock band!

[mrhotpinkkitty]

Harmonies for days

[TheMacTeir]

it is sad 7 people have threr head firmly shoved up there asses

[stonedandfree]

you have to live the blues to sing them.

[jimi794]

Hi this is a very good song! I like it yes indeed . Thanks my friends

[peoniesfleur]

They are the coolest band. Best vocals. They influenced my music and my interest in harmonies.

[ManAndDog55]

Where are all my albums?

[rfranklinw1]

At 1:54 the greatest harmony ever sung OMG "love is coming"

[rfranklinw1]

At 1:45 the greatest harmony ever sung OMG "love is coming"

[42satin]

so groovy pass me the doobie!

[pbrucpaul]

This was something with earphones on!

[bobbyearl60]

was only 9 when this song came out .liked it then...love it now.love the unmistakable martin guitars just droning away.part of the reason I bought one I think. just such a perfect song.

[suzys11]

now THATS hippie music.........

[MrLivingparadox]

'those days are as present as your unified manifestation in full acceptance that time is an illusion Pappy ;-)

[AntiRedSon]

1:50 is awesome, so peaceful.

[scarrmd]

groovy tune man. Far out!

[geckoluv1]

great songs never get old!

[scarrmd]

@geckoluv1 - nope. I concur.

[spottedlpelt]

I love classic rock! And Im thirteen!

[jimi794]

C génial this song a+ my friends thanks

[thomasizquierdopeter]

my dad got me into this. and i thank him every day for it. classic, classic stuff. THIS is music. no computerized stuff, no auto-tune, nothing fake. just them, instruments, and a microphone.

[Iamderelict]

autotune doesn't have shit on these gentlemen.

[scarrmd]

@Iamderelict - autotune doesn't have shit on shit.

[radtech21]

OK, I was REALLY thinking about not responding initially, because I thought you might go off, which you have.

I didn't say that EVERYONE should hate hippies, or even that hippies are terrible people; I just said that I hate hippies, and you are unlikely to change my mind on that point.

I live in Hippie central and provide health care for them, so the things that I am stating are NOT stereotypes; this is how these individuals act.

[radtech21]

I hate hippies, but "Questions" is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard... so apparently I don't hate hippies that much.

"Where are you going now my love?"

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 what reason could u have to hate hippies?

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

1. They are LAZY. They don't want to work and just mooch off of society.

I work hard enough to support both myself and them.

2. They are DIRTY. Take a bath! I don't want to smell you from 5 feet away.

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

3. Often, they are INTOXICATED. In moderation it's OK, but I've seen first hand the damage that addiction can do.

4. They have UNREALISTIC hopes and dreams. The world is f'ed up, yeah, but don't just sit around and complain incessantly about it. If you want to fix problems you have to WORK for it (see number 1).

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 some of these reasons are just stereotypes about them, hippys today might be somewhat like this but back then they stud up for what they believed in (which is somthing to be admired) i have seen what addaiction can to as well, im personaly not willing to talk about that on a utube page, but back then drugs such as lsd and weed were new enough and there experimentation was somewhat incocent, the 60s and 70s was a time of free love and peace.

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

OK, I was REALLY thinking about not responding initially, because I thought you might go off, which you have.

I didn't say that EVERYONE should hate hippies, or even that hippies are terrible people; I just said that I hate hippies, and you are unlikely to change my mind on that point.

I live in Hippie central and provide health care for them, so the things that I am stating are NOT stereotypes; this is how these individuals act.

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 how can u post " i hate hippys" on a hippy oriented video and not expect to get a backlash from hippy viewers?..anyway basicaly what im saying is every1 complaines about everything today yet no1 does anything? the youth back then were apart of somthing big,a cultural movement which will go down in history..i only wish that could happen today, im 15 and from my point of view this generation is boring.....the people back then might have had idealistic views but they had a hell of a time

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

This is a hippy oriented video? I thought it was just a music video of a song made by hippies.

Your "backlash" towards me contradicts your assertion that you want to live in a world of "free love and peace."

People where I live DO do something (Heh heh, I said "do do.") Before you start making broad claims against an entire generation get out and travel; observe and grow a little bit.

They certainly had a Hell of a time, I cannot refute that!

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 sry i probably phrased that wrong i ment that the majority of viewers are probably ppl who idolism this generation, by backlash i ment respond in a long way mubling on like i probably am:P

yeh i do intend to travel and grow etc. see the world and what not.....bit younf at the moment tho

haha must move wher you live.....sounds like a haven ppl here in ireland just complaine and moan and no one seems to be doing anything

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

If you get the chance check out the west coast of the USA, I think you would like it a lot.

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

You claim that "the 60s and 70s was a time of free love and peace." Well, it certainly was NOT that for the poor southerner who got drafted and sent to Vietnam, or the Freedom rider who got beaten to a pulp in Birmingham, or even for the Egyptians and Isrealis trying to eliminate each other.

Are any of those people Hippies? I think that part of our essential disagreement goes to the question "What defines a Hippie?" My parents believed in peace but were certainly NOT hippies.

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 many ppl were drafted they simply burnt or tore up there draft card and refused to go not just hippys did that, the king of hippys the great jimi hendrix was drafted but he found his way to get out of it.

ps sry formy bad spelling mate

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

Don't trip about spelling, this is just a little YouTube conversation.

You have a good point abt the draft, I am 100% against that in any country, but some people were arrested on some minor charge in their hometown and then shipped off to war instead of to jail. Most people had NO WAY to get out of it. A lot of the people who got out of it are now known by a dfferent name: Canadians.

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 hahah yeh.

the way jimi did it was he pretended to be gay...and he got a dihorable discharge( or an horonarble discharge no to sure on the specifics) in 1966. back then gay men where not aloud to be in the army, not gonna get into vietnam to much......that was just one big mess

the 50s through the 70s was a crazy time in world history......lota crazy shit went down

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 woodstock is a prime example of how half a million ppl could live in perfect peace without ANY violence, i would rather live in that age anyday, having hope in sometihng u believe in is alot better than simply playing along to the status quo

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 they were also some of the bravest ppl this worlds has seen.......what is your ideo of a hero? who do u idolise? those who faught in vietnam?? it is not heroic to slaughter innocent cilvianians in cold blood

it takes a special type of person to stand infront of a loaded gun knowing what the result would be like the hippies did at many a peacful protest, most famiously the peacful protest at ohio university where unarmed hippy students where gunned down by the police, THATS A HERO.

[radtech21]

@SwanSong2156

Although I don't think it really supports your argument, my heroes are neither hippies nor soldiers. My heroes are probably the first astronauts, Gagarin had some guts to be the first. Or possibly Watson and Crick, they don't get a lot of exposure these days but provided the foundation for so much.

What happened at Kent State was a horrible travesty and I feel a great deal of shame about it, even though it was before I was alive.

[radtech21]

@radtech21

So what about that guy in China during the Tiananmen Square protests, the "tank man?" Or Tibetians protesting the Chinese occupation? Or even Persians during the recent "Green revolution?" Do you think any of them were hippies?

A lot of people have stood in front of guns for what they believe in.

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 fair enough, dnt know alot about astruanots myself, i did just watch this nasa documentury on 2012 last night tho haha it was interesting . yeh it was horrible dnt know whyyou should be ashamed tho, its in no way urs or anyone eles fault, some pple just shouldnt handle weapons

basicaly the altamont concert was the 1st sign of hippys violence when news broke of the mai lai massacre in vietnam( inncoent ppl killed by soldiers) it was feared that outraged protesters would become violent

[SwanSong2156]

@radtech21 there were many protests and with the fears of hippys becoming violent again nixon uped the anti with the national guard and at kent state they were just a bit too trigger happy i suppose....

neil youngs song ohio says it best anyway

[balderdashman]

That keyboard riff that starts at 2:10 almost makes me want to pop some acid.

[StanBennet]

@balderdashman In my opinion, and it isn't biased because I'm not the greatest fan of these guys, but this is in my opinion the best psychedelic sound in any song.

[balderdashman]

@StanBennet - I couldn't agree more to your comment. I'm 43 and I'm just really starting to get into these guys even though I've been aware of them for decades. In fact, I just learned Mr Crosby performed at this summer's music festival in Courtenay BC where I used to live. Ah... the beauty of great music is in it's timelessness and forgiving nature because it lets you come back and appreciate it after years of neglect.

[Rocknweb]

@StanBennet Specially when they brake "The love is coming to us”, wonderful psychedelic sound with whawha and the fabulous “counterpoint” between 3 guitars in following. On “4 way streets” this is really interesting to see how they managed it in live, my preferred song with Ohio and it’s phenomenal end.

[StanBennet]

@Rocknweb That was exactly the part that I was referring to without getting too specific.

[StanBennet]

@Rocknweb I love the drumming on this as well.  I think it gets lost as a result of the voices.

[BB61Sailor]

To MsJollycholly- This was not a double album but I remember it much in the way you did. I was 14. Rock On

[buffetr13c]

This will always be one of my favorite albums!

[Buckshot420ful]

1969 I was 9 and the youngest of 4 oldest sister was 16.

 I loved it then and still today. I many, many memories!

[NarLiv]

Can't say it enough... This is great music and the new music produced these days is a complete tragedy!

[Ulysses447]

My father introduced me to the the 60s. I fell in love with the 60s. 12 years old listening to this band.

[huntingdogowner]

million thnx,says an old head.

[akroma76078]

My father definitely grew up in the best time for music.

[Maxoman427]

"Carry On" is not only my favorite CSNY song it is one of my favorite songs period.

These are men with voices.

[Littlesomekinda]

1969 I was 11 yrs. olds still luv the music!

[nhford07]

well, I see that there are six more morons making themselves known. How can you not like this song? geeez.
