    Even though he's sitting and leaning into the Mike as a way of singing with a previous back injury certainly didn't mean that he was restricted in his uniquely dynamic voice and mesmerizing story telling. Just nobody ever could replace him. Thank you Beth, I agree, it's a beautiful thing.

    Neil once said that 'Heart of Gold' put him in the middle of the road - but the middle of the road is boring, he headed straight for the ditch on his next album. Neil's a unique musical genius for sure, whether behind his acoustic guitar, or strapping on Old Black and letting loose with Crazy Horse. Great choice, and great reaction as always - cheers from Canada!

    Positive songs are difficult to write, says Elvis Costello. He followed that by stating, "Any a**hole can write 'look at my wounds' music. I don't know enough to know it it's true.

      Elvis Costello is always sarcastic. He wrote himself négative, sad, or angry songs, forever. Never heard a positive song from him. Maybe I forget some. And it's only my advice.

  • @hippomancy
    @hippomancy 11 дней назад

    the manner of the song-writing varies in success based on the songwriter/performer... some people are storytellers and are fascinating: John Prine, Jonie Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Robbie Robertson, Kate Bush, Lennon/McCartney- and some people excel at the autobio songs- such as Neil, Lou Reed (and Jonie). Pete Townshend is sometimes too much in his own head, as is Roger Waters. but I love Neil. even his "failures" aka the Geffen years were more interesting than most musicians' successes
