What a wonderful version of this classic Young tune! But it ended before it was finished!

@Knightowl2006, as a long standing fan of Southern Rock, I always thought that the skynyrd boys took Neil a little too personally with this song.

And of course anybody can sing any song that appeals to the universality of life!

Les americains and les francaise sont tres bon amis!

Jd, the musicman is right about 4 Way Street, find it , buy it , and own it!

yes the guitar of neil young is sounding. Where is he?

Paul, si'il te plait...

Play Skynyrd, not that twerp Neil Young...

Does that mean american bands should not wirte songs baout other people's history? Oh, btw, American War of Independence, the main ally of America was who? Oh yes the French, and their philosophies also infleunced the US constituition and government so...

paul is an amazing guitarist, but french men shouldnt be able to cover this song. this is about american history which they know nothing of.

Nice points and your Cowgirl in the Sand is fine too. Funny, Southern Man is one song I got sick of after hearing it a dozen or so times. Normal Neil plays everything just perfect. I can listen to Live Rust Powderfinger riffs with Billy Talbot harmonies any day of the week.

Paul P. is good but Neil Youngs guitar in this song has an inner tone that you don't find here - a tone of despair and Neil pickin' is kind of hesitating that makes the whole song so affectionate.

Neil Young wrote the song. The best version available anywhere is on Crosby Stills Nash & Young's live double album called "4 Way Street". Its also available on CD but hard to find. Southern Man on 4 way Street is about 11 minutes and rocks. One of my favorite songs and I never get tired of hearing it. Nice guitar work on this version here on YT.

Peut être mais ; moi je joue de la gratte, mais j'ai pas l'impression que j'essaye de me la jouer américain, même si mes influences vienne de la principalement, cette musique me touche, ce n'est pas une question de pays ou de patriotisme exacerbé c'est du moi, à par ça le son de cette video est pourri, let the good time roll

Vocals are flat, dull and patently horrible.

On the plus side, it makes Neil Young sound in tune.
