A simple song, done so beautifully that it pulls you into the tragic story of mankind's lust for power and dominance juxtaposed with the simple life of a country boy who does not get the chance to grow old. Rust Never Sleeps was a Neil & Crazy Horse classic, kept alive by these brilliant musicians. Thank you Cowboy Junkies and Latent Recordings!
This is relevant to musical responses from many, accolades to to Neil Young and Crazy Horse, who, "Crazy Horse" in reality lost his five daughters in a "white person" blanket gift, with a small pox viral infection. No wonder he stood up for his native background. The violin and plaintive vocals says it all.
I’ve loved this song since I first heard it on Rust Never Sleeps back in 1978 and will be played at my funeral. This has to be one of the best covers of an original with subtle changes. Thank you CBJ. 🙏
Neil Young has built a remarkable career by capturing startling moments of Raw Human Emotion and setting them to haunting melodies, which become forever etched in your memory.. Occasionally artists have made his songs their own by adding even greater depth to an already powerful statement.. This interpretation of a young life lost, in an Instant of fear and confusion, really brings home that feeling of unbearable Grief, and Pain, that can never be resolved, or ever understood well enough to be forgotten.. This is a masterful performance of a brilliantly crafted soundtrack... Lary
Of all the different versions of this song, that have been put out by Various Other Artists, it's This interpretation that Really captures the Ultimate Emotion of the song.. As you step into the Moment, those feelings of Angst, Fear, Confusion, and Disorientation become Cemented in your mind, and there is No Escape.. You can actually feel this Young Man's Finger on the Trigger, with No One Else to guide him other than the distant words of his Daddy.. Although you already know what's about to happen, you're somehow Still sitting on the Edge of your Seat, hoping, Against All Odds, that the Inevitable can Somehow be Avoided.. The final step is the Agony of the Moment, and of the Future, for the life that has been Lost, and the Grief of those who will Never fully understand What has happened.. This interpretation provides even more Clarity, and as many Chills, as Neil Young himself gave us with the Original song.. It's a Stunning piece of work... Lary
Met her outside of Belly Up in Aspen many years ago and had a nice conversation with her. She was by herself and we just stood and talked for a while. Uncommonly nice, engaging, genuine, and interested in just meeting and talking with someone new. I've been listening to her voice since the band first made a cassette tape for distribution. Too many great songs to pick just one favorite.
Quite sure that is more of a statement about the general listening population than it is a statement about the quality of the talent you are listening to here.
I am from Toronto and was a late teen when they hit; they helped forge a Toronto scene. Saw them in Peterborough touring their latest record. Still unbelievable live. The textures Michael Timmins articulates live are other.
A Neil Young cover that is as beautiful as the original, or even comes close, is a true unicorn. This is outstanding. Thank you for posting, and thank you Cowboy Junkies and Margot Timmens for doing this song justice.
Never heard a cover of a Neil Young song better than the original, but this blows me away, better on every level, the slow pace suits the song better and enhances the sadness, the violin is a masterstroke and a vocal to die for.
Neil's acoustic version comes close to hitting the mark. But the outings with Crazy Horse comes across as just another song they lost the whole soul and sorrow I've the lyric.
Idk - when it says "and I saw black, & my face flashed in the sky", I think Neil brings that to life a bit better. And I think that might just be how it really looks, when a person dies a tragic violent death. But we'll never know for sure till its our turn, will we? Still, I think our men can speak of such deaths with more certainty than most women...we send so many of them to the slaughter, after all.
I was listening to CJ 30yrs ago.... or longer, but now I have no idea how I originally found them. I've lost them off and on over the years. Nice to have found them again at 71....they were always different and special. Maybe now I can understand what the hell they were talking about way back then.
incredible cover of a song that already gave me chills. all three are perfect but the violin player, to me, raises the song to an almost ethereal quality. I could fall into his sound and not hit the ground but float in peace.
This is how you cover a song . I am absolutely impressed by the way they made own personal influence of their own artistic style., I absolutely love it
theres a very sad brave story behind this song ... about blowing up the boat .. the son taking on his daddys responsibilities with his daddys rifle ... which might lead to death ... its quite sad ..
Story telling of the highest order thank you Neil. This song has been with me since I was 15 I am now 56 and it never ceases to amaze. This version is amazing and is proof that good music never dies it just goes on and on. Thank You Cowboy Junkies 2020.
@@stevenrule2305 remember when rust never sleeps hit the movies ?? way back when ... tripping we would go ... the great old days ... the last waltz . tommy , the wall , quadaphenia , even the silly , rocky horror picture show .. rust never sleeps and the ewoks dancing ...
Total perfection and ecstasy:) It repairs our souls; in these COVID days, a grey nightmare that will shape our future, but tks for Marharet and The Junkies!!!! Merci.
Add to that the fact that one of our best bands (from my home town) was named after this song. The nexus just grows. Mind you I prefer Margot's voice over Bernard's any day.
art is a wonderful thing and should be encouraged, supported and funded.... and taught. no agenda, just motivated by your heart felt reaction. I've seen Neil Young and Cowboy Junkies perform this and both were cherished experiences. I think this and Annie Lennox's cover of Don't Let It Bring You Down are my favorite NY covers.
I have a friend who works as a DJ and we talk music all the time. He has thousands of songs on his laptop. He asked me what i've been listening to lately,,,, i said the cowboy junkies... they're amazing, im more impressed all the time. He smiled and said he listens to them when he goes to sleep at night. Boom!!
We all mostly know the N Young original well...and rust will never sleep.! Tried to sing some harmonies to this version and I couldn't keep up with it. I loved their "Sweet Jane". Margot and Company have now got a two-goal advantage on me. Lovely stuff!!! Best Wishes both to NY and Cowboy Junkies,😇 Pat Shevlin.
WOW!! Over and over Margo pounds it home with her understated vocals The listener hangs on her every word! I wish that I knew where this comes from What a voice!! Like no one else in my (long) time.
One of my all-time NY favorite tunes. Besides the heavenly vocals, I have to say the guitar playing is crisp, very solid. Great tones with the complimentary fiddle/violin playing.
I've known NEIL YOUNG SINCE 1973 THIS IS THE BEST COVER OF POWDERFINGER I HAVE EVER HEARD INCLUDING MY COVER BY THE SUMMER SNOW BAND ROCK ON EVERYONE LOVE IS THE THING THAT INSPIRES MY MUSIC ALWAYS, T.GLENN CANNEN ROCK IMRESARIO
Very much an early neil young fan, heard cowboy junkies sing this song many many years ago, absolutely loved it then and nothing has changed.. Brilliantly song and arranged. Never heard any comments from Neil young about there version but lm sure he loves it, hard not too.
She has an amazing voice, angelic smile, and a hell of a group of musicians. I have loved and appreciated this fellowship of people since I first heard angel mine.
I have not had events in my life even approaching something like this. I feel sorry for anyone who has. Mr. Young has done an excellent job of evoking that sorrow, I also think this band excels at that in their own way.
Happened across this for the first time a couple of weeks ago - probably watched and listened to it a couple of hundred times since - great songwriter - great voice - great musicianship - what a fabulous interpretation of a classic song
Thanks, RUclips, for adding this to my random playlist. Stopped me dead in my tracks, stopped what I was doing and just sat and enjoyed. Her voice is in my dreams.
In my younger years I did a lot of traveling. Long, 10 hour drives through the night in the mountains of West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Margot accompanied me during those times and hearing her again for the first time in years brings a powerful calm over me. Thanks Margo for being there then and still.
Some of their own stuff is a little less lullaby like. I remember the first time I heard her sing the line "Who gave that power to that fucker up there"
I love their rendition of this song. Slower and soulful. Makes little needles carpet my eyes. Thank you Mr. Young for this incredible piece of music. Happy Birthday too. On or about the 12th of November.
The way Margo sings this classic is so plaintive and sorrowful, clearly directed at the senselessness and inevitability of the loss of a young life -- unlived -- brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it...
What an incredible interpretation of one of Neil Young’s many poignant, take your breath away and gut wrenching tunes he’s given the world. You guys nailed it! Thank you
"To fade away so young..." with so much left, un done. So beautifully sung, for every one who has lost a loved one before their time. Margo, and the talented musicians illustrate the sense of loss with this cover. 😢
Grey hair, a bit older much like myself.. But this band much like 'Powderfingers' writer... They've all gotten very tasty over these many years... Kinda gives you a rush realizing ... Damn the years have FLOWN BY! Bravo! Cowboy Junkies ... Better than EVER! Thanks, Bruce
@@64fairlane305 And then there's Joni Mitchell, Colter Wall, Stephen Fearing, Fred Eaglesmith, Wilf Carter, Kate & Anna McGarrigle, Stan Rogers, David Wiffen, Leonard Cohen, Justin Rutledge, Ian Tyson, Wade Hemsworth, Hank Snow, The Rankins, Be Good Tanyas, Po' Girl, Bruce Cockburn, James Keelaghan, to skim the surface of all the awesome Canadian performers out there.
"my face flashed in the sky": Such a perfect description for so many moments in my life! But I always woke up later, usually in pain, typically with a crowd around me, but not dead! Maybe next time?
One of my absolute favorite songs ever, done by one of my all-time favorite performers, and Margo is a talented singer and beautiful woman. Their version of Blue Moon still bring chills.
The Cowboy Junkies interpret Neil Young with a depth of ownership which overshadows all others...
Just DA'YUM!!!
Perfect

I wrote this, it’s about federal gun boats following in Sherman’s footsteps on the Mississippi..f’ing murderer
@@petersimons8666you’re lost
Masterpiece. This slower version of the Song underlines the seriousness and the sadness of the lyrics. And the Violin… the Violin…just incredible.
100% ❤
Beautiful, brings tears to my eyes.
❤ époustouflant
The violin is haunting. Love it
I’ve always wondered what the song is about?
I love the way Margot's voice has matured over the years. I could listen to this on a loop for the rest of my days.
Margo can do no wrong when she sings, her voice is so smooth, honest and unique, and she always rings true.
I absolutely love her beautiful voice!
There is a quality to her voice that has always reminded me a bit of Rosanne Cash.
Wow!!! Pffft
The violinist sends this cover into another universe...takes your soul on a very pleasant journey.
Neil Young, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Tom Petty...so many great songwriters who seemingly wrote for everyone else to enjoy playing their music.

A very kind person
Such a memory you have from the Rocky Mountains 🏔️
Why was this band not more popular than it was her voice is amazing!
If you know, you know. I've been listening to them for over thirty years.
Quite sure that is more of a statement about the general listening population than it is a statement about the quality of the talent you are listening to here.
I am from Toronto and was a late teen when they hit; they helped forge a Toronto scene. Saw them in Peterborough touring their latest record. Still unbelievable live. The textures

What can you say about this performance other than perfect. That violinist is the real deal. Margo is just stunning. What a beautiful soul.
No words can describe the beauty of these 7 minutes.
So true!
Amen!
I've seen them live several times, it does get better :)
A Neil Young cover that is as beautiful as the original, or even comes close, is a true unicorn. This is outstanding. Thank you for posting, and thank you Cowboy Junkies and Margot Timmens for doing this song justice.
I concur
Amen!
I don't think you get out much or enough. Heroin will do that for you.
you should hear their version of Tired Eyes - gorgeous
It made me cry, within seconds....
I first heard cowboy junkies as a wee child in the late 1980's I have never forgotten them
Never heard a cover of a Neil Young song better than the original, but this blows me away, better on every level, the slow pace suits the song better and
enhances the sadness, the violin is a masterstroke and a vocal to die for.
All CJ covers from NY are beautiful.Helpless is my favourit!
Try our Montana girl, Nicolette Larson. Pretty good Lotta Love
No offense intended but you still haven't heard a better rendition than good old Neil,
Neil's acoustic version comes close to hitting the mark. But the outings with Crazy Horse comes across as just another song they lost the whole soul and sorrow I've the lyric.

Agree, but maybe you should change your RUclips handle?
Really love Margots voice
Why would Joan Jett deny being herself..?
Why would Neil Young claim authority for this storyline when I possess the original scratch sheets in my handwriting
Ryan Adams experienced extensive sessions with this highly talented band of musicians: that’s where they got it, Neil Young stole this
Love her!!! I have loved her voice since the 80s, watch out Neil, she stole your song!!!!
One of the best folks songs ever... Tears are running down my face...
Me Too.
“And I just turned 22, I was wondering what to do”. CHILLS.........That violin player hits every note beautifully...
While not perfect, I suspect Daddy was proud.
Same here. Just love this Gal and Her Band ❣️
The strings sing a sweet sonata ! A Big Sound ! Melodic... Kama Sutra !
Aly Bain
Not Aly but James McKie
theres a very sad brave story behind this song ... about blowing up the boat .. the son taking on his daddys responsibilities with his daddys rifle ... which might lead to death ... its quite sad ..
Great interpretation of Powderfinger, that violin solo is magical too!!!
I really love the way Cowboy Junkies have done this Neil Young song . So haunting and beautiful . Well done Cowboy Junkies . 💖💖💖💖💖💖

Still a very beautiful Woman. Thanks. timeless.

Beautiful Song. Beautiful Voice. Beautiful Woman. Beautiful Forever. thank you for this gift.
My identity crisis song! I love this cover, so rich and earthy. Our gift, wrapped in blood and guts in love.

You are so correct...
he didnt write it

Quelle merveilleuse chanteuse❤.
Awesome. Out of this world. The guitar and violin are synchronized to perfection.

Sei bellissima e la tua voce mi entra dentro, Bravi una splendida interpretazione
For some reason it seems a most of my favorite music comes out of Canada.
Did anyone mention Gordon Lightfoot?
Good call. I heartily recommend the album ‘hymns of the 49th parallel’ by k d lang. all Canadian songwriters. Really really good.
@@64fairlane305 And then there's Joni Mitchell, Colter Wall, Stephen Fearing, Fred Eaglesmith, Wilf Carter, Kate & Anna McGarrigle, Stan Rogers, David Wiffen, Leonard Cohen, Justin Rutledge, Ian Tyson, Wade Hemsworth, Hank Snow, The Rankins, Be Good Tanyas, Po' Girl, Bruce Cockburn, James Keelaghan, to skim the surface of all the awesome Canadian performers out there.
You like music from Canada try : Joshua Hyslop, Loreena Mckennitt, Rose Cousins, Ruth Moody, The Wailin' Jennys, "Well two of the three are Canadian"
I've often said if it weren't for Canadians and Texans we just would have much great music.
Humble, respectful, true and other Godly words to describe this
Superb and I mean SUPERB cover of a wonderful song...........Merci.x
An incredible cover of a great song. Thank you.
The violin is sublime in this song and band. I great band each member contributing to the whole a beautiful rendition of this song.
tres belle reprise!

Haunting. Really brings this song home. Thank you for breathing new depth and perspective into Mr. Young’s work. Ahhhh, yes 😊
One of my absolute favorite songs ever, done by one of my all-time favorite performers, and Margo is a talented singer and beautiful woman. Their version of Blue Moon still bring chills.
my neil young favorite song, it's weird but what a song
Same for their cover of Hank Williams' "I'm so lonesome I could cry". Incredibly moving.
Bravissima!!!!! Bravissimo!!!! Absolutely beautiful...
What an incredibly beautiful version of Neil's brilliant masterpiece classic.
Man borde kanske lyssna på Neil Young egentligen. Superbra version detta!!! ❤❤❤
Still beautiful....after all these years....love..
If you mean Margo, you're right..
''' & after all these years '''
Margot and that voice...crush in the 80s, 90s up until the present
The best Powderfinger i have ever heard!!!
best cover of possibly the best country song ever.. nuf said
