Neil Young (born November 12, 1945) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, musician and film director. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist in 1995 and also as a member of Buffalo Springfield in 1997.

Young's work is characterized by deeply personal lyrics, distinctive guitar work, and signature tenor singing voice. Although he accompanies himself on several different instruments—including piano and harmonica, his clawhammer acoustic guitar style and often idiosyncratic electric guitar soloing are the linchpins of a sometimes ragged, sometimes polished sound. Although Young has experimented widely with differing music styles, including swing, jazz, rockabilly, blues, and electronic music throughout a varied career, his best known work usually falls into either of two distinct styles: acoustic folk/country ("Heart of Gold", "Harvest Moon" and "Old Man") and electric-charged hard rock (like "Cinnamon Girl", "Rockin' in the Free World" and "Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)"). In recent years, Young has adopted elements from newer styles like industrial, alternative country and grunge. Young's profound influence on the latter caused some to dub him "the Godfather of Grunge".

I hear some people
been talkin' me down,
Bring up my name,
pass it 'round.
They don't mention
happy times
They do their thing,
I'll do mine.

Ooh baby,
that's hard to change
I can't tell them
how to feel.
Some get stoned,
some get strange,
But sooner or later
it all gets real.

Walk on, walk on,
Walk on, walk on.

I remember
the good old days,
Stayed up all night
gettin' crazed.
Then the money
was not so good,
But we still did
the best we could.

Ooh baby,
that's hard to change
I can't tell them
how to feel.
Some get stoned,
some get strange,
But sooner or later
it all gets real.

Walk on, walk on,
Walk on, walk on.

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE

  • May I just say that from my perspective this is the greatest album ever produced. Thank you Neil.

  • skywardism you are correct it is the best album ever

  • @buttsuckable And he said "Let there be 8 dislikes" :D

  • @fucking bastard to paraphrase lynyrd skynyrd "i hope neil young will remember a southern man cant read anyhow"

  • This is chilly 

  • i'm a fan, but i loled at fknbastard's comment. calm down bros.

  • This is still the best album I have ever heard and I only discovered it when it got onto CD...after hearing about it's almost mythical position in history. It knocks me out every time I hear it.It has it's own place in the sky for me.

  • guys just ignore F'ing B. The only pleasure he gets is when people respond. I've been listening to Neil since 1970 or so. He is in the 2 all time greats. Doing it for over 50 years. More production and recordings of ANYBODY. Thats what you call standing the test of time.

    And ya, Ian, this thing does have a band kind of feel. Along with a little Springfield. Great great tune, no doubt.

    And, F U, F'ing B.
