Neil Young-Yonder Stands The Sinner-Time Fades -original

YONDER STANDS THE SINNER

Well, you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
Down by the club on the parking lot cinders
I was to meet him and play his game.
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound.

I saw his face in the attic window
Yellin' down through the broken pane
Sinner man! What you got to run for?
Church bells rang when he said that name.
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound.

Well, I was about as scared as I could be.
I went and hid behind the nearest tree.
Peeked out from behind the branches.
Sinner!
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
To get down.

I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same.
I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same.

im with you peace on earth  stars and bars is as good

[peaceonearth777]

Best album by him ever! Peace on,,,,,,,,,,

[mrmd53]

..another reason -I understand he won't release this album had to do with the

drug deaths of at least one good friend (band member?)..a very dark period in his career he rather forget. Anyone else have something to add?

To all of my 19,855 other like the tunes who appreciate real music (no excuse for the 2 who don't like it, but..your opinion) one of the best if not the best album ever made by Neil...vinyl lives!! Peace...

@znogypogy neil is smart, really he gives this album, and on the beach a mistique (as they deserve) --- he realized he wasn't gonna make a hundred million $ off of either, but these albums have given him a cult following with people like me and younger (i'm 38, i consider his 3 ditch trilliogy albums to be 3 of the top 20 albums ever made by anybody)

I like stars and bars, but I don't think it's as good.

This is one of the all time legendary albums ever produced by anybody (not to diss stars and bars but...)

David Crosby sang back-up vocals on this.

What balls it took, to play these live songs no one had ever heard, on the heels of releasing "Harvest". No wonder people were a little shocked...

[znogypogy]

a lot of rusties have a thing for this album. seems neil, for whatever reason, wants it buried forever. i like it more than it's predecessor "harvest" it's still better to be a rough diamond than a shiny pearl i guess....
