      You can find some, in other continents too, I guess. Like this norwegian singer, song writer and record producer, Aurora, who crafts her musical art mostly by herself, as she wishes. Personally, her songs in her albums are not always for me (she's a "pop singer", and I'm mostly metal, with a bit blues, rock, folk, and I've enjoyed Neil Young for about 30 years now), but when it comes to live performances, she's great, especially in acoustic set up. She's not the new Neil Young or Aerosmith, for sure, but there's still some talent on earth, that being said maybe not really in main stream music industry. In exemple among many others here in YT:
      AURORA Live from COP26 | UMA Entertainment: ruclips.net/video/qHPIPdPhUP0/видео.html
      She has plenty of live sessions, where she sometimes varies, from slightly to completely, her rendition, as she feels it in the moment. It's worth to dig a bit (here on YT). Maybe you won't like it or her, but at least there're still creativity, talent and genuine renditions, even if it's not that easy to find.

The pure, raw passion in his voice in this song would almost bring me to tears before I lost my dad. Now it’s hard for me to listen to this at all, but when I do it’s a therapeutic and almost out of body experience. I love you pops. P.S.- I’m a lot like you were;)

Simple Love is goodness. Amen

    Old man, look at my life
    Twenty four and there's so much more
    Live alone in a paradise
    That makes me think of two
    Love lost, such a cost
    Give me things that don't get lost
    Like a coin that won't get tossed
    Rolling home to you
    Old man, take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you
    I need someone to love me the whole day through
    Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true
    Lullabies, look in your eyes
    Run around the same old town
    Doesn't mean that much to me
    To mean that much to you
    I've been first and last
    Look at how the time goes past
    But I'm all alone at last
    Rolling home to you

    I’m 67 today, and this song still takes me back to where I was then. As with many of his songs, they all seem to connect with people and pieces of times in our lives.

    This song takes me back to a time when being a teen came with no worries about getting old. However time has passed and now I realize that I am a lot like every old man, just needing someone to love but reflecting on so much time lost. Life passes and whether we realize it at 24 or older we will always require love to hold us all the day through.

      Life passes most people by while they are making Grand Plans for it. As Johnny Depp said in the movie Blow!

    In My humble opinion the BBC performance is The benchmark for acoustic shows. The sound of Mr. Youngs voice and the tone of his martin were sublime. One of the greatest of all time on 🔥this particular evening. Do yourself a favor and watch the whole BBC performance!

    I was 14 years old when I discover this magnificent singer. I had bought all of this albums and listen them yet. I am 67 years old . All an history. My preference go for Harvest.

    I learned about Neil young through my pops and I was young then and thought it was lame. I'm 37 now and listening alot and found this man is one of the better song writers ever

    Played this in 72 on a transister radio the size of my current cell phone-Go Neil Go! Can't believe those 50 yrs went so fast!

      So did I. Remember how many home-recorded (borrowed) Neil Young cassette tapes that were devoured (eaten) by the cheap cassette players we use to carry around with us in 73?

    Stunning. What an artist. That guitar playing is first rate, along with everything else.
