I have a list of four or five top musicians and they are all brilliant and unique in their way, but the more I hear him and the older I grow I realize that Neil is simply a genius and immensely gifted. Do not put off seeing him if you have the chance; he is still as good as he's ever been, but the sand is draining from the hourglass. A "hippie" from the '60s, he completely shatters that image with his unbelievable intelligence and vision for the future. If I ever had an alter-ego, he is the one. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us. Long May You Run!!

What a great artist! Nobody uses the instruments, the guitar and voice, to wring the emotion out of the human soul the way Neil Young does. I love how he glides his voice into a sounding note on the guitar so they unite seamlessly. Also, the audience waited at the end for the last note to die and then a moment, just in case there was another, not to miss it. Very few performers have that kind of command of an audience's attention.

Neil's ability to produce such a wonderful sound alone is one of the greatest proofs of his unique talent. He is really special and my favorite Vocalist/Guitarist combo - tied with David Gilmour in my book. Their styles contrast so much that I need not to decide which is better rather than love and appreciate them both. I love this song, wonderful melody, great lyrics, and its Neil fucking Young.
