  • Beautiful song!! Nothing can top this man.. the cavemen invented fire.. neil invented guitar solos.

  • This is such a fantastic, tasteful solo/song that really immerses the listener und takes him to somewhere else. You could indeed hear it over and over again without ever becoming tired.

    I think Neil Young 'the guitar player' is severly underrated. Many people just consider him an exceptional lyricist but the thruth is he's got some great chops on the instrument too.

  • if u ever happen to upload the version from WELD i am heard yelling POWDERFINGER! at the top of my lungs at that show, on that album.

  • this song is the meaning of life

  • @rsohlich1 They dont want you to think,they want you dumbed down.like the people in brave new world, and 1984

    you can be winston smith and I be john savage.

    join the army,see the world and get killed by a freedom fighter, or survive and come home crazy regected and homeless.

    you're smarter than the average bear rsohlich1.

  • I just drank some booze and how the fuck is this considered legal when cannabis is illegal? I just feel really dumbed down in a numb way, whereas cannabis at least makes you aware of things and I can also hear things in music I couldn't hear without it (pot). I just don't understand this world. But anyways, this song is great regardless.

  • What a KILLER!

  • doh us hicks would notta nowed that, cmon that is incredibly condescending!!

  • Actually this song talks about Hernan Cortez, a Spanish who " conquered " Mexico and brutally murdered most of the Aztec people. He kidnapped the local group leader forcing them to give him gold and other valuable stuffs, in return, he would give the leader back to his people. But instead of it, he killed the leader and other 80,000 unarmed soldiers with his military front. I studied part of this story few weeks ago. Dancing across the water = Cortez coming with his ship in the ocean waters.

  • neil young knows whats going

  • Gott sei Dank, dass Neil Young noch lebt - ich bin ihm immer für seine Lieder dankbar
