When you were young and on your own
How did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking of games that I was playing
Trying to make the best of my time

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes, only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see if he can come out
Try to lose the down that he's found

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes, only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart

Nice to see someone gets it (and him)!  Always amazed at the quantity of "Neil Knockers".  Guess we all can't have great taste!

"Neil Young" plus "Everygody Knows This is Nowhere" followed by "After the Gold Rush" stayed on my turntable for those pivotal years when I finished high school and started college. They will always be favorites of mine, and they hold up well.

Oh, yeah...this is the ticket, to every time it was ever heard, because every time, it touches something with its unapologetic purity and innocence, and by God its TRUTH! and last time I saw you Neil I think it was Costa Mesa in '86 or '87 and SEE YOU ON AUG 5, RedRocks!

I'm sorry for
the things I've done,
I've shamed myself with lies,
But soon these things
are overcome
And can't be recognized.

Agreed. Nicely put. Your comment resonates with the way I have come to understand Neil.

We saw Neil here in London Ontario last week and I was struck by the fight he has - in his head, in his music, and physically with his guitar - as if all of these years have built a pressure that can't seem to let go. He's becoming one of those wise old souls that has traveled and learned and absorbed life but has only one outlet to share the knowledge - his music. 
 
Excellent post from a fellow Londoner. I felt the same thing seeing him playing for Conan's finale show last week. He seemed awkward socially, played the guitar too "loud" than he needed to, didn't let the song carry the moment enough ('Long May You Run'). He certainly has left it all on the table after all these years. Legendary. Feel lucky to have grown up in his era.

There was a time in my late teens - early twenties when all I listened to was Neil Young and Todd.

Does this ever bring it back, alas. It was very sweet when he did this in the CSNY tour a few years ago, esp. in the midst of all his new raging anti-war songs.

Great story, thanks for that. I love this musical period, wonderful to learn this.
Seminal album from Neil, possibly his best.

OK. Fine. Musicians have license to say the things we all wish we could say, but can't... because we are afraid. That's what makes them artists, and us critics.

Actually I wouldn't mind so much if the Bush administration only sounded like idiots but developed and practiced good policy. I could find a lot to admire then. I think of Young that way. He may not have the best voice, but his songs touch me.

Right. And to get off topic a little, I have read that Joni Mitchell's "My Old Man" was written about Graham Nash. It's cool how Graham turns over the piano to Neil for these related songs.

We must be about the same age. One night I crashed at a friend's house after we'd been out getting rip-roaringly drunk and we put "Gold Rush" on to play us to sleep. Unfortunately, he had one of those "fancy" turntables that allowed you to play one side of the LP over and over and over until the end of time by setting some switch or something, and one of us inadvertantly flipped it on as we started the album. Result: as drunkenness set in, we were forced to hear the same side of the album over and over and over until the sun came up because neither of us was sober enough to get up and turn it off. I thought I'd never be able to listen to it again. Thankfully, I got over it and it's still one of my faves, despite the occasional flashback to the drunken equivalent of being a turtle on its back.

I happened to see Neil in 1986 (I think it was the Garage Band Tour). It was right after Crosby had gotten out of the can in Texas. Neil brought Crosby and Nash out and they did this tune (and Ohio, I think, cripes it was 20 years ago!). It was pretty damn cool!
