I'm 63. Now I'm the old man. I was a Paramedic for 37 years. I didn't make a million, but I did make a difference. To a lot of people.
Thank you Jeffrey for answering the call to serve your community. You did indeed make a difference.
I know you did.
Thank God.
I have the utmost respect and admiration for paramedics. Thank you so much for your service.
Pride is a treasure... thanks
At 60 years of age, I am the old man now. How time has passed. Life is short my friends.
I hear ya! 💕
67 here so true Stephen
Laughs softly, 63.
Dead right there Steve, i'am now 71 but in my mind i'am 20.
Right there with you Stephen.
My son called me crying one time said "dad i just heard a song OLD MAN, and it reminded me of you and me." I lost my boy this year and miss him. This song, among others, connect me to him outside of time and space. It's hard to listen to sometimes and it makes me feel. A commodity i never thought would be as rare ad it has become for me.
Bless you on the loss of your son. I can't imagine...
@Anthony C ~ ~. Mr A, that was so sad to read, it is bringing a lot of wetness to my eyes. I am 84 now loving all this music that Jamel listens to. I have not lost any of my 4 yet, but sometimes I wonder about that fact due to either their decisions or lifestyle at certain times. Again my deepest thoughts are with you. 🌹
I'm weeping for your loss. Your son is right over your shoulder. I'm so very sorry.
he loved you :-)
Frangiscu, this will keep his memory alive, thanks for sharing my friend. Memories are above time and space!
When I first heard this, I was a young Combat Veteran, now 50 plus years later, I am the Old Man, Forgotten and alone with my memories.
You ain't forgotten my brother 👊
❤❤❤
@@skippylanoue966 peace brother
Not forgotten, sir. I think about your generation and your sacrifices a lot. That includes my dad, USMC 67'-71'. Thank you all for your service. And welcome home.
"when they close their eyes, they are not there, on that stage -- they are at the place where those lyrics were created." Love that.
Indeed. Never go wrong with Neil anyway
What a great observation Jamel_AKA_Jamal!! 💫
And, Adrienne Pender, I read your comment before listening.. made it all the more sweet-ThanQ.. ✨
“When they close their eyes they are not there, on that stage-they are at that place where those lyrics were created”..
“They’re going back in time”..
🎼🧚🏽♂️🙏🏼🎶🎶♥️🎶🎶🙏🏼🧚🏽♂️
Also, I Love your t-shirt, Jamal, .. BE humble .. and how you say y’all FEEL the music!!
Yaay - this has made my day.. Much Love & Many Blessings
#Godspeed
#Gratitude
#Respect
Me too jamel understands these artists hes hearing for the first time
Yeah, that was damn perfect
Love that, too. That’s real music, that comes from within you.
Neil still lives on that ranch today and now...he is the old man.
71
Building electric vehicles
Thanks to the Pope of the Hills we have neil young thank you charlie manson for mentoring neil on that ranch
@@timothymccarthy8828 yeah, Neil purchased the ranch in the Santa Cruz mountains in 1970, charlie was arrested in December of 1969. Neil did meet charlie in the late 1960's both in Laurel Canyon and at Dennis Wilson's house. Neil in his biography remembers recommending manson to a record executive saying he was "talented but a little wild". Neil had already fronted bands in Canada by that point and had started working with Steven Stills and Buffalo Springfield. Safe to say that charlie was never at Neil's ranch and charlie never "mentored" Neil.
@@kilgoringtroutless6295 neil was at Charlie's ranch a few times if I can find the article will share it
This song is 50 years old, and I can remember when I first heard it. I was 18 and thought I was immortal. I had run off from NYC to San Francisco at the age of 17. Lived in Haight Ashbury, then on a communal ranch, and turned around and hitchhiked back across the U.S.A.. I heard this when I got back. The future was wide open. Every year since then another door has closed, another option shut down. Don't waste a second of your youth! It is THE most valuable thing you will ever have, and nothing you do can ever bring it back!
As I am now 50 I can second this. I have lived a lot of life but it’s gone by quick.
@@brianmahoney9388 The blink of an eye!
I love to hear old stories like this!! I'm a huge Grateful Dead fan have been since I was 15 I'm 35 now. But I was born in '86 and never got to see the boys with Jerry! I bet you have some incredible stories to tell bro! Sounds like you lived a true Jack Kerouac novel!
@@agriswoldvacation4081 I first saw the Dead at The Fillmore East in 1968. I went to the late show which started at 10 p.m.. It ended at 6 a.m. the next morning. That's back when Pig Pen was still alive. The first row mezzanine was my 2nd home. So many great shows. Salvador Dali, the artist, even showed up one night at a Jefferson Airplane concert, and hung out in the light booth with Chip Monck who did the light shows, and who introduced the acts at Woodstock. I saw all the greats of the time including Jimi Hendrix who I also met. Later I lived on a commune called Wheeler's Ranch. Look it up. It's a fascinating story!
Amazing comment 🙌🏼💝
I mean he was in his 20s when this happened and he sounded like an old man who's lived this experience. Proof of just how brilliant Neil Young is...
BEAUTIFUL!
He's amazing. Goes to show you don 't need a "pretty" vice to sound good. But when he was with CS&Y - - check out Crosby Stills, Nash & Young. Amazing Listen to "Helpless" first!
Just a young man talking to his dad. Realizing we are not that different.
"When an artist closes his eyes like that, he is back the place he wrote the lyrics." That is spot on. Great comment. 👍
S/he are attending to the meaning of the song. What they wanted to express. And the feeling of it.
Well, maybe not, but Mr. Young's tunes tend to bring out the poet in folks.
I've been told many times to keep my eyes open when I sing.. but that's the only way I know how.. now here I am.. an old man.. like my old man before me.. singers who realized the truth too late.. and squandered their lives because people tell them they can't do it.. and we believed them. If only we were in a world of people who lift up as opposed to push down.. if only..
Jamel...are the only 'reactor' I know who does listen and FEEL the music. YT is littered with reactors who spend most of their time clowning, talking over the performances, talking about things other than the music. They have no feel for when to make their stops, ruining the flow, and never backing up to restart. They have no respect for the music, none. You, my brother, are nothing but respect and appreciation. We see and feel that. That is why your channel has, and will continue to grow. It is a joy to watch you discover what we grew up listening to.
🎶🎧📻🎸🎹🥁🎤🎺🎷
Wings of Pegasus is good; respect for the music, as well as the artist behind the music
@@dlinfrost I follow Wings of Pegasus, also. He is fantastic, but he's more than a reactor. He does technical analysis of the performance. We get to enjoy his reactions, as we do Jamel's, but Fil also explains how the magic is made. If you enjoy Jamel, you'll also like Wings of Pegasus.
I agree 100%
Uncle Neil is a huge influence to Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam. He totally helped them stay grounded and focused on the music. You are easily the most enjoyable person to watch discover the music of my youth.
There are other reactors you say? Do tell....
The genius of it all. The voice, The lyrics, The guitar playing. Neil Young is a damn genius!
Yes bb
he had a beautiful gift...
“Doesn’t mean that much to me to mean that much to you”
That line has always resonated with me.
This song hits the soul.
One of the best lyrics ever! Love it!
I've heard this song a million times. I'm looking at you reacting to this song for the first time and it almost feels like a brand new song. I'm so glad I found this channel today!
@Haim Arazy YES!! I feel the same way. Jamel AKA Jamal brings unity to us all through the awesome and wonderful music we’ve all listened to our whole lives. 💞🎶🎸
YES!! Me too. And ugh this song is so good I feel like I am hearing it again for the 1st time. I actually😢
That's why I love react channels it's almost like hearing it for the first time again
Make sure you subscribe, it is a great perk me up everyday! Welcome!
"Doesn't mean that much to me, to mean that much to you". Is one of the greatest rock lines ever.
Totally ! .. One of my all-time favourite song lyrics, and I wait for it every time I hear this great song .. The lyric of a man who was wise beyond his years .. Wayne
The 70's is my favorite era for music. Best EVER.
Such a simple song, yet so complex. The days of artists with pure talent.
My son loved this song, we played it at his funeral in Sept 2015. Still makes me melancholy whenever I hear this, but makes me smile as well, as I introduced him to Neil's music and he and I spent many great hours listening together to Neil on vinyl. Miss you so much, Daniel.
@Sharilyn Bratton I just wanted to reach out and thank you. Your sharing of such an intimate & deeply personal part of your life really touched my heart. Until now, I knew nothing about you, much less who you are. And I could not imagine the grief and all that involves that has become a part of who you are. But with your humble & unselfish words, I am overwhelmed by your bravery & strength. I have no doubt that you are a wonderful woman & a loving & nurturing Mother who was instilling your positive qualities & experiences to Daniel who I’m also sure was just as special as you. No doubt on his way to carve out his way into life, equipped with the love, wisdom and life experiences you imparted to him as only a Mother can do. I’m not even sure at the moment all the reasons why (and in the ceaseless chatter in brain, the list has already begun), but your words & the poignancy of them motivated me to acknowledge them & thank you for you. Please know that by doing so has touched this guy right here in a deep & healing way. Stay amazing and beautiful. And again thank you for sharing. Thank you for being you.
@@ga0425 Thank you for your kind words! My son was 31 when he died and I miss him every day. He has 2 sisters ages 31 and 32 now, and they were my lifeline after he passed. The 32 year old has autism and a genetic defect and functions on a 5-6 year old level, and Daniel taught her how to play Super Mario, they had such fun playing video games together. My sp needs daughter and I Iive together, my other daughter lives several hours away, and we all still feel the huge empty place where Daniel.used to be. He helped me so much with his special needs sister (their dad left when they were 4, 5, and 9 years old) and in a way he was like both big brother and surrogate dad to her.
@Sharilyn Bratton now that you’ve shared that with me and all the others here, I’d like to say more about this subject, but as I read that latest post of yours my eyes started really “sweating” hard and I’m just gonna need to take a little break here. You’ve furthered my feelings of what an incredible, strong, brave and sharing individual you are. You have obviously followed your heart and have sacrificed so much for your family and continue to do so. Your actions as well as your words are an inspiration and help people like myself with our own lives as we deal with the good times and especially the bad times. Which for me at least has offered a more clear perspective. But for the moment I got to do something about all this fluid coming out of my eyes. And now my nose is beginning to become stuffy and there’s a lump in my throat forming as well. I’m pretty sure I don’t have the Toyota Corolla virus because I can also feel my heart expanding and warming up. However I do remain honored and humbled at what I have now learned of you & of such a important part of your life. What a wonderful person with such a large heart and sweet, sweet soul You are.
❤
Sharilyn, you made me cry. Music can evoke such powerful memories. I am so sorry for your loss.
You would love “Southern Man”, & “Ohio” if you liked this song. Every song he does is a story in itself.
He was part of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. I loved growing up with 60’s & 70’s music. Nothing compares.
I'd stay away from Southern Man just because it can and probably will ignite a shit storm.
My parents were all about CSNY. I grew up listening to that.
Heart of Gold might be a better one to start off with rather than Southern Man.
He's one of my all time favorite.so many good memories and I loved 4 way street album with them all.
@@theinfamousjellybean467
I'm watching that reaction right now!
I say "Helpless", "Down by the River", "Rockin' in the Free World", and "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes".
What's great about these videos is we can see in Jamal's face what it felt like to hear these songs for the first time. We get to visualize the joy and awe we felt hearing them the first time. Powerful.
I thank God every day that I lived in a time when I could hear music like that. It touches my soul every time.
It's so cool to see people sing live like this and hit every note, without autotune or lip synching. You don't see that much anymore.
It's by him for him, and he's letting us listen.
Let's not forget the the crowd is also polite by being quite.
@@williamr1088 quite what?
:-p
It's tragic that we, as a culture, have lost the appreciation for live performance and music as a means of artistic expression. It's commercial entropy as the gatekeepers of these once art based industries, like the music industry, have followed the path of least resistance for so long that now they simply pay technicians to simply mimic the aspects of art that are the most accessible to the most people. The fallout from that is the loss of nuance, perspective and philosophical retrospection in the vast majority of the population. Based on where we are now as a country, and through the loss of its general appreciation, the purpose of art in society has never been more clear.
The imperfections of live music is what makes it perfect :)
Neil is one of the greatest songwriters of our time.
ah come on man, ever heard of Katie Perry?????? classic!!!
@@ronnietoots6797 I stand corrected. lol
Along with his melodies and incredible guitar make his songs sublime.
My favorite song period Love everything about it. Neil is brilliant #🇨🇦
Legendary
So much soul and emotion. Neil is a true artist and Jamel GETS IT!
You can’t help but go back in time with him when you hear this song. It’s what makes this song brilliant!
The Needle and the Damage Done will have you in tears.
Especially if you’ve lived it
Been there, seen that
31 yrs. Clean here.
1972. He is new to you, you are going to enjoy him. Such a great singer/song writer. Canadian. Buffalo Springfield, Crosby Stills Nash and Young and with Crazy Horse. Amazing songwriter.
Suggestions are many. Heart of Gold, Cinnamon Girl, Southern Man, My My Hey Hey, After the Gold Rush, Sugar Mountain, Powderfinger, Ohio, Cowgirl in the Sand......
Rockin in the Free World.
@@GedUK Thanks I was just going to say the same thing.
. . . Cortez the Killer, Like a Hurricane, Down by the River, The Loner, Rocking in the Free World . . . and on and on . . .
Down by the River
Arthur Marx My god is he could take the time for Cortez the Killer, I’d pay for that one.
I’ll never forget like 10 years ago camping in the Sierras and one of our neighbors had an acoustic guitar and it was at night and he was singing this song. It was a moment I’ll never forget. The stars were so bright and the smell of the trees with the sound of his guitar and his voice in the night sky was so amazing.
I enjoyed the story
Beautiful memory, thank you.
This performance is one of the most simple, most genuine live performances ever. It's when amazing artists were in control of their music.
“Never heard of Neil young before “ And my heart shatters to pieces
I cried in classic rock.
YOU KIDDIN.HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE
My jaw literally dropped. Wide open. But what a joy to be able to discover Neil You g for the first time! I remember reading my first Jane Austen. Like that.
I bet some folks could mention an artist not in your preferred genres and you would have the same reply that would floor them... I love seeing someone who I would, wrongly, assume not enjoy a certain type of music digging it!
Seeing, well and hering, the story were it came from neat .Seeing him that young singing that song first time, because of yer revues cool thanks
"It doesn't mean that much to me, to mean that much to you" is the hardest lyric in the world.
p.s. check out Mirrorball for Neil Young/Pearl Jam. Now you have to listen to about 50 Neil Young albums, then the CSNY albums... Have fun.
Oh shizzle! and the Buffalo Springfield as well!
Possibly the biggest "check yourself" line in history, lyrics or no...
I'd probably heard the song a dozen times before I processed that lyric -- felt blindsided!
bro you're a breath of fresh air with the reactions
always have a smile and positive vibes
keep on keeping' on bro.
Neil Young is a genius like James Taylor is. Songs that touch the soul .
i like taylor but young is in another universe when it comes to influence
Jamel: "I have never heard about Neil Young before"
Me: "Here's a copy of the 'Live Rust' Album"
Also, Neil is a Master Storyteller and considered the Godfather of Grunge the same way Ozzy/BlackSabbath are the Godfathers of Metal
One of my favorite albums. Live or otherwise.
"Never heard of Neil Young before" --- now I feel like an old man.
lol yeah
Grandma Dee here, a long-time Neil Young fan. So funny, b/c I never heard of Jamel aka Jamal before-LOL-But what a heart of love he shows! You have a new fan now, Jamel/Jamal! Neil Young's "Harvest" album is my favorite (on vinyl if possible).
He is timeless and amazing. Continue to explore.
What a sheltered life you’ve lived. I’ve loved his music for over 50 years. Give a listen to his three major bands. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Buffalo Springfield, and Crazy Horse.
Cosby, Stills, Nash & Young......en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosby,_Stills,_Nash_%26_Young.
this was recorded in the early 70s, and i just wanted to say as a canadian thanks for listening and reacting to neil. hes a legend. i gotta say the studio version of this song with the drums and everything is better imo, but this performance is awesome. subbed
Neil is one of those individuals overflowing with thoughts and feelings from the heart. He has a special way of expressing. This is one of my favorite songs and to have a chance to watch someone experience it for the first time is very special. There are earth bound songwriters/performers and there are those that have a spark from the cosmos in their musical expression. Neil is among the latter.
Needle and the Damage Done is another great song.
Yep
That song is SO good!
I honestly thought I was the only one that pulled songs apart and listened to every nuance. Jamal, thank you.
I love the key in which Neil Young writes. It's beautiful!
Brother Neil!
Yes it is
😊
One of those rare instances when the live version is actually better than the studio version.
Nah. I love the steel guitar in it. But Neil alone is more than what I'm worthy of.
@@NewBluesBros That's the thing about music...nobody is wrong.
Yeah. This version fairly drips with emotion.
ted ritola Preach
Finally!!!! One of the greatest singer songwriters! This was 1971. Killer song. What a talent.
I grew up as a teen when this album Harvest came out. It's one of the top selling albums, but the heart in it is what's most important. Now, at age 61, I'm an old woman.....but it's all a state of mind ! This brings precious memories to my mind, that you cannot put a price on. The Old Man knew, like I know now.
Meeting this man gave Neil a glimpse at his future.
For a moment he could relate.
He took that magic, and ran headlong into history.
"The Needle and the Damage Done" is a must if you're listening to Neil Young.
Absolutely
Drugs are bad, mmkay.
A good song that unfortunately gets overplayed, much like the 'Harvest' album in general
I vote something more different to old man like After the gold rush.
Not everyone gets Neil and thats fine. But when you do get him its all in.
Well said
I wish I could hit the like button on that more than once
I didnt as a child... loved all my dads other greats but hated Neil... now he is my favorite!!!
Yes
This is madddddddddddd tru. I got into him like early 2018 and since then he's been my favorite artists hands down. And I've been listening to rock since the fourth grade and I'm a senior in college now. Neil Young is love, Neil Young is Life, Neil Young is the Truth!
1972 My old man passed away in 2011. He was 88 and surprisingly liked a lot of "my" music, particularly Traffic and Pink Floyd, but this song was his favorite. My son and I saw Neil in concert a few months later. This song reduced both of us to puddles of tears.
Geez, sees an old man and that spurs him to write an absolute masterpiece. This is my favorite Neil Young song.
Jamel is so musically perceptive, that he heard the Pearl Jam in Neil Young (Neil Young was a big influence on Pearl Jam and grunge in general).
Pearl Jam brought Neil Young on stage here in Toronto years ago... what a show...
@@TrainWreck444 damn that would have been wicked
In the mid 90's I saw Pearl Jam open up for Neil Young, it was an amazing show in a small and intimate venue. What I remember the most is how genuine Neil Young's music and presence was compared to Pearl Jam. Eddie Vedder was entertaining but Neil Young really hit the soul.
@@useyournoodle100 Saw Neil Young in 1988, and to this day it is STILL the best concert I have ever seen. I thought it was going to be a mellow concert, and for the first half it was, as he only played acoustic, which was amazing. Then he said he was taking a break, and that they were going to come back and get "electric". I thought nothing of it. THEN HE CAME BACK OUT AND ROCKED THE HOUSE FOR AN HOUR!! I have never seen anyone jam like he jammed.
@@TrainWreck444 I saw niel play with Bob dylan in kilkenny Ireland in 2019...he's only ever played live with Bob twics 😱.. I feel so privileged to be one of the few people to have seen that... It was also the first concert I've ever been to so it was real cool
1972. Neil Young is the “Young” of Crosby, Still, Nash, and Young (if that helps you place him). He wrote “Ohio” (🎼 four dead in Ohio) for CSNY after the Kent State shooting in the 60s. Young is my favorite artist, which says a lot because there are sooooooo many great artists out there. 🤘🏼
HE'S A DIRTY ASSHOLE.
Toni, I believe that this recording actually dates from 1971. The BBC did recordings for Neil and James Taylor that year.
You know what it’s like sitting around with a friend listening to great music and you’re both enjoying it and chilling together ? That’s what it’s like listening with you Jamel. I’m 66 and my best friend has passed away and so I really enjoy watching you enjoy this great old music that I used to enjoy with him. Bless you man.
I've been to that ranch. It's near Pescadero California. Has buffalos roaming on it. My friend Joni met Neil Young at a bar near his home and they danced a bit. Because of a throat disorder he couldn't even talk. But that's why they invented dancing. He has a crystal like voice. Captures you instantly. This is one of his defining songs. He was 24 when he bought the ranch. He was 26 when he sang this one.
This song always gets me in the feels. "The Needle and the Damage Done" gets me too.
I just wrote that before I scrolled down
Neil's voice gives me chills to this day
and tears....I love this song and it's an amazingly powerful LIVE rendition
SAME
Ya, man - Needle and the Damage Done still takes me back to dark times almost fifty years gone.
I'm 65 and a musician - amazed how so many younger people have never heard the music I grew up with - must be really hard for you, very sad - this clip is from 1971 - uncle Neil is an old man now, me too, and I'll go to my grave so proud and happy that I grew up when I did. Keep doing what youre doing. Thanks.
He's so talented just a man and his guitar and lyrics like that. So powerful
Neil Young is one of the greatest songwriters the world will ever know. He's also one of my favorite musicians too. One of the absolute greats.
Such a huge part of my psyche since he released "Heart Of Gold"
One of the greatest, and he's buds with a lot of the other greatest… like David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash. Or… and Jamal, you *DO* have to listen to something (anything basically) by Joni Mitchell. Who's a very old friend of Neil's (they're both canadian and knew each other before they - independently - came to the US)
Neil Young penned and sang "Ohio" about Kent State shootings. Crosby, Stills,Nash & Young does "Southern Cross"
Southern Man
Yes, please do “Ohio.” All great music. “For What it’s Worth” is the best protest song ever.
Southern Cross is one of my favorite songs ever.
Neil Young isn't on Southern Cross.
Douglas Butcher Right, that’s just Crosby Stills and Nash.
Listen to Crosby, stills, nash and "Neil" Young, "Carry On" i got to see Neil in concert... surreal
Talent. I have listened to many reactions to this song over past few months, and never never get sick of Neil's talent and delivery. Goosebumps.
“Hey hey, my my” and “outta the blue”. NY is in the top 5% - just an immense talent
Thats my fave!
And I recently, very belatedly discovered, that on the flip side of the original album, Neil Young did an electric version that is Hey Hey, MY MY into the black. Almost like it better.
Definitely Hey Hey My My and Powderfinger without a doubt you have got to listen to those two songs even if you get to here and critique in your own wonderful way any of the others and they're all great
When you said that you have never heard of my Canadian countryman, my jaw dropped. Then I remembered that I’m old. LOL. Good video.
My jaw dropped too, but I'm 34. lol
LOL😆😂🤣Oh wait, me too Chris 👵🏻
I dropped my IPad .
It gave me jolt too. I know I'm old but c'mon
I'm 26 and it surprised me, most people of my age have at least heard of him
I love how music hits everyone differently. "Doesn't mean that much to me to mean that much to you" hit you in particular.
Canadian here and I luv your channel, I luv music especially the story that is being told, AMEN!!!!!!!!
Young impresses me on two levels here: His ability to weave incredible complexity and depth out of seemingly simple chords and lyrics, and what might be more impressive, his ability at 24 to recognize his own loneliness in the life of his much older caretaker. Maybe I'm just incredibly shallow, but I look back on my 20s as a time when I was pretty much full of myself, looking at old people largely as missing out on something which was uniquely mine to enjoy. This song, along with Whiskey Boot Hill/Country Girl with CSNY, cements Neil Young for me as one of the songwriting greats.
dear Mr. J., in 1971, on a fold-out record player, at the ripe age of 19, in Thailand, living offbase, I played that album, and sang along. I turned 68 07/11/20!!
I was in Ubon 71-73, played the hell outta After The Goldrush the whole time!!!
I came back to watch this again after almost a year. Interesting how you were on the cusp of discovering Neil, CSN&Y, Joni and the Laurel Canyon gang at that time. You are now wiser for the effort. ✌
A man...a guitar and a mic...Neil is a real musician singing real music.....first time I heard this song I was 13.....50 years later I'm still alive....thanks for your wise words Jamel...you have an old soul.....
Heart Of Gold from this same performance is also very good.
He has a lot of great songs.
Hey Hey, My My
Sugar Mountain
Needle And The Damage Done
Ohio
Harvest Moon
Comes A Time
Keep On Rockin In The Free World
Don't Let It Bring You Down
Down By The River
So many lol.
I see you already did Heart Of Gold lol.
Yes. so many. Greatness coming from almost everything he touches. But I'm going to just second one request here: The Needle and the Damage Done is in my opinion one of the greatest songs ever.
Hey, Hey, My, My or My, My, Hey, Hey?
@@rubthedude why choose do both
@@zepiuulos I guess you're right
Back in a time when we valued the elderly. When our ranch hand got cancer he was not let go to survive on his own. He was highly respected. We cared for him, he lived in the ranch house until cancer took him. He continued getting paid and never wanted for food. People did not look at it as charity for it was earned. I learned so much from him. Just a simple quiet man full of knowledge and heartbreak he turned into lessons. I still place flowers on his grave and an American flag for he served his country.
Jeanette, what a wonderful and tender story. I salute your "Old Man" on Memorial Day and this song just about sums up my feelings for I am an old man. I've lived a long and fruitful life with the promise for a few more years before I also join the honored dead. I feel the same as you since we live in a country that has forgotten how to honor the old , especially when some value economics over life. Take care and stay safe. Love, peace, and happiness to you and your family.
wow, amazing
@@backinthedayhippie609 thank you. I hope you have many years ahead. My parents and Grandparents would not recognize this country after many years gone. It is so sad the world we grew up in has changed so harshly. Bless you...
Got a little choked up reading that
Loved this Jeanette. A lovely thing to read in such an awful time. Much love from Ireland to you.x
No lie, this song makes me cry 8/10 times. I miss my grandfather, and I'm afraid of my dad dying. I'm getting old, too. And I see myself becoming them. Its wild.
Stay safe everyone.
Amen, my friend. We're here, and then we're not, just like the countless before us and the countless to come. What to do? The Beatles said it wonderfully: "The love you take is equal to the love you make." Make your mark.
@@anthonyc1883 Memento Mori.
This song is 50 years old. I remember when it came out first. We always just loved everything he wrote and sang.
"I had purchased a ranch, and there was an old gentleman named Louis Avila and his wife Clara. Louis took me for a ride in this blue Jeep. He gets me up there on the top side of the place, and there’s this lake up there that fed all the pastures, and he says, 'Well, tell me, how does a young man like yourself have enough money to buy a place like this?' And I said, 'Well, just lucky, Lou, just real lucky.' And he said, 'Well, that’s the darndest thing I ever heard.' And I wrote this song for him."
-Neil Young
This song always makes me weep. I had a tough relationship with my father as a young boy, which lasted well into my late twenties. We buried the hatchet as clumsily as fathers and sons might do, but the realization that I carry many of my father's traits became clear to me in adulthood. I'm indeed a lot like you Dad.
Cats & the Cradle- grown up just like you dad!!
@Angel Bulldog You're quite welcome. I'm a father of 4 (just like MY father of course), and the the painful lessons I learned somehow made me a better father than I ever imagined I could be. It's a process to be sure, but I committed to trying to be better than my father was to me. I'm guessing you're a pretty terrific mother yourself.
Same here. Dad drank himself to death before we really connected. His music collection told me a lot though
@@75Everett47 Sorry to hear this unfortunate news. I was friends with a James Woolridge in High School.
I feel this comment too hard
Neil Young is the pinnacle. There are precious few that hold a candle to him.
He's got the discography and he's got the miles to prove it.
My brother says when I play and close my eyes I am in a whole other universe. I told him " yes, and all the other people with their eyes closed enjoying their own little worlds and their own little music ,live or dead , are right there with me".
It always amazes me to realize how young some of these artists were when they wrote such insightful songs.
Yes, your 20's seems to be the golden age of song writing.
Random trivia. Neil Young was briefly in s band called The Mynah Birds. The original drummer and bassist left to form Steppenwolf (Born to Be Wild). The new bassist Bruce Palmer brought in Neil. They were signed to MOTOWN andcrecorded an album, but the album was shelved and the band released when singer Ricky James Matthews was busted for being AWOL from the US Navy. Bruce and Neil sold the equipment. packed up Neil's hearse and drove from Toronto to LA to find Stephen Stills to start the band Buffalo Springfield. The singer git out of the brig, and dropped his last name and became a Superfreak named Rick James. No really. Steven Stills would later firm Crosby Stills and Nash which Neil would occasionally join becoming Crosby Stills Nash and Young. Check Neil's solo work like Southern Man, Cinnamon Girl, Down by the River, Like a Hurricane, Rockin in the Free World.
I had to look this up, can’t believe Neil and Rick James were in a band together
@@andrewkratenstein7691 There are a couple songs by them on here
Thanks for that interesting back info
MSG 1975, Reno Hilton 2015, Stephen Stills once said of Neil Young, Greatest song writer ever. Neil is an icon, again, I have lived to hear the best. Decade album, get it and get them Tee's, peace out ya'all.
I was 16 in 72' when I first heard this song but now 64 this song means so much more as I'm the old man now. If only I could impart the wisdom I have now to my younger self in 1972'. To young people, don't assume you know everything because in the decades ahead you will change and not be the exact same person you are now. And please, stop and take time to smell the flowers and live in the moment because to quote Longfellow, "Time is fleeting". And cherish those in your life because there will come a day when they won't be there to cherish.
If you really want to explore Neil Young, Jamel, you need to check out Buffalo Springfield, Crosby ,Stills, Nash, and Young, But definitely check out "Down By The River", my personal favorite!
My favorite too
Don't forget Neil Young and Crazy Horse.
And I agree
And Powder finger , Sedan Delivery , Mr. Soul , Down by the river, Prisoners , The needle and the damage done, Helpless, Tonight's the night , Alabama , The string-man , A man needs a maid , Old laughing lady , And I could list a dozen more nearly perfect songs .
Old Man - 1972
Next : Southern Man , Heart of Gold , Harvest Moon - just pick one
Also - should check out from Crosby Stills and Nash : Wooden Ships
Yes great great song
And after he listens to Southern Man, he needs to listen to Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" because they took *exception* to Neil Young's "Southern Man" song. You can hear it in the lines:
Well I heard Mr Young sing about her
Well I heard old Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern Man don't need him around anyhow
🎶 Wooden ships, on the water...
Eric Shinault 🎶 very free, and easy 🎶
And SOUTHERN CROSS, CARRY ON, JUST A SONG BEFORE I GO and SUITE, JUDY BLUE EYES. THE VOICES of the 60's! 🔥🔥🔥
I love seeing the expression on someone’s face when the really listen to songs and lyrics in many of these classic songs.
Actually brings tears to my eyes. Deeply emotional indeed.
This song touched me deeply as a young man and 30 plus years later the meaning is just more enhanced. Thank you for recognizing and even more truly feeling this soulful heart felt song. Truly timeless!
“Doesn’t mean that much to me, to mean that much to you “ has always been one of my favorite lines of a song.
SAME!
Like many of us...right?!
Big luv...❤
Yes! Love that line!
You just went down another rabbit hole my friend. The whole "Harvest Moon" album is spectacular. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
I think you mean "Harvest". "Harvest Moon" came twenty years later and is a lesser effort.
@@eddiewillers1442 it's still a great album. Don't judge me what I like. Neil has a few great albums. Love his and Phish's version of "Down by the River" live in '93.
So I am a retired RN, I remember when I first heard this. I am the old man now. In my 70’s. Young has a way of distilling a feeling or a memory that transports me to a time and place where I can not go. Thanks for looking at this beautiful
Terrific reaction. BIG Neil Young fan here. I'm 55 and have enjoyed his music for decades.
The year was 1972. The song was from his landmark album "Harvest".
I believe this particular song was from a show in England. BBC broadcast. Year was 1971. LP came out in 1972 with Old Man cut on the album.
@@josephzimmer6776 I didn't know that! very cool!
Notice how everyone sits quietly and listens to the artist.
No cellphones
The way it should be
They are English. They typically did not make a lot of noise...
This song demands it. I hardly breathe listening to this song.
That's because he's in England. I think they call that polite? I wouldn't know.
Lost my Dad 2 years ago. We were so alike. He was my best friend. He was proud of me . He loved me . His words. Never forget to share your feelings . It means so much to me to mean so much to you. RIP Da… you was the man!
His whole album Harvest Moon is just fantastic !! He's actually got a musical alter ego! Believe it or not he was big part of the development of grunge rock that came out of Seattle scene ! Him and Eddie Veder of Pearl Jam have done alot of shows together ! Neal Young is quite the Rocker !! Rockin in the Free World is a kick ass song !!
The needle and the damage done, should be on your list too.
yes sure it's deep and beautiful you should play it
Yes. Such a heart rending song.
I always wished it was a longer song. Sad and beautiful.
That shit is large
Amen to that
I love that Pearl Jam was the band that popped into your head when listening to Neil. Pearl Jam and Neil young have a long history together. The band and Eddie in particular, have adopted Neil Young as their "Uncle". Eddie was the one who gave Neil Young's induction speech into the Rock and Roll hall of fame and they have played in concert together numerous times, dating back to 1995. They also put out a studio album together (Mirrorball).
I know Neal Young since 69, made great songs, allso this one. Now I am 65 and it makes me thinking. Thank you for playing this
This song and Heart of Gold grabbed me and never let go. I have loved Neil since 1971 and have seen him five times between late 80's and mid 90's.
He is quite the poet. His song “Ohio” was about the Kent state murders. “Needle and the Damage Done” is incredible. A favorite of mine is“Harvest Moon.” The guitar riff will stay with you. The song flows like a river.
Yeah I love that song too - but it's so close to that Everley Brothers song I wonder if there was ever anything made of that? ruclips.net/video/OQ1oydW2p1Q/видео.html
Depressive songs, but unmatched for artistry.
Excuse me, the Kent State incident wasn’t about “murders.” The activist rioters were the murderers, burning down a campus building. The national guardsmen were rightfully protecting themselves. Learn the facts before spewing lies.
@Thunder Bird
And you can go burn down more buildings, antifa-style.
@@johnsheppard8910
Better an “ass” than dead at the hands of pantifa goons.
The whole 'harvest album' is deep and soulful.
Fucking yep!
MY FAVORITE.
His best one I think.
My parents found the LP a few days ago while cleaning up their attic, and gave it to me. It's so good.
@@ElFudgeMusic Which song did you like the most ?
Your reaction is right on! He’s one of the very few iconic legend that we still have, to treasure ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ be humble, respect your elders. Ain’t much else more important in this life.
It was released in 1972 on the "Harvest" album. This is the year I graduated high school and also the year I saw Neil in concert!!! My favorite album even to this day (I'm 68 yrs old). And yes, Neil Young is still alive =)
68 also, bought the Harvest album then.
Neil Young "Keep on Rockin in the Free World"!! ANTHEMIC!!
Neil is a living legend. I’m grateful to be alive at the same time as him and to have grown up with his music giving me peace and teaching me wisdom.
Your lucky
One of my very favorite songs & videos ever! Tear up every time.🎶💙❤
Just hit 61 last week I Was 11 when this Classic was on the Airwaves in Toronto Ontario Canada. Neil is a Master Story Teller. I Love This Young Black Brothers Reactions So Soulful Love Ya Young Soul Brotha God Bless
