The absolute PERFECT opening song for that movie - - it sets the WHOLE TONE FOR WHOLE GENERATION that made that time and that movie and all those great, great groups who were there SO perfect.
Rest in peace, David Crosby, and thank you, especially for this great piece of music. It puts me in a frame of mind few other songs I can think of match.
I used to play and sing his part in my own Band every night back in the 70's. "Long Time Gone"! Man, those were the days! True hope for the World that the human race might yet change! Still hoping! Now working on my Book and my Film Script to my own end. Rest In Peace David Crosby. Thank you for everything!
There was a 20th anniversary thing on either Oprah or some show bk in 1989. I was a 12 year old skater kid girl who loved Guns n Roses & the Chili Peppers. My mom was apparently getting tired of me boasting about my music & had me watch this thing on a talk show about some 60s concert. Okay, pretty cool. My mom, seeing how impressed I was with this hour long thing, had us rent the movie from a local video store. OH MY GAWD...my music taste totally broadened, to what it is today. I love all kinds of music, but this movie totally did it for me.
Ah, those guys and girls riding the horses... that sense of freedom! Just a halter and a total sense of joy. To think that they are probably grandparents now!
Actually this is my favorite part of the movie.Whoever is responsible did a great job.It really makes you want to be there and sets the tone that this is something special even if you don't know any of the music.
Totally agree, living 10 min from the woodstock site makes it even better as the area has not changed much since, second to this for me would have to be wooden ships and the scenes of welding in the night.
I SWEAR! If I could, I'd put January 1, 1965 - December 31, 1984 on a NEVER ENDING loop! IMHO, the most exciting, prolific & vibrant 20 years in human history! And, if I was forced to downsize those 20 golden years & only pick THE TEN, absolute pinnacle years, in history, I'd pick 1967-1976! Awesome!
It really was a great period in popular music! the Beatles, the Doors, theStones, the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt,,Billy Joel, Led Zeppellin (!), Elton John, Joni Mitchell, Jim Croce, Allman Bros., and very many more.
Woodstock, Agosto de 1969, o maior concerto de todos os tempos, tinha eu 17 anos... tempos inolvidáveis... tempos do Make Love Not War... o tempo do movimento hippie, um comportamento coletivo de contracultura dos anos 1960...
50 years ago today a miracle occurred. A half a million people came together in love and peace ✌ I have made a video asking what happened to the Woodstock Dream? I am an aging hippie trying to figure out today's bizzare world . I still believe in the dream!! Got to meet David Crosby at one of my recovery halls in 89. It was a very special moment.
To see this clip from the Woodstock movie is to realize that it still gets you emotionally. There is a screenplay out there which starts at the festival but the story continues straight up until the present. One can only imagine the life journey of that blanket clad couple on the album cover, who are still together to this day.
Hard to believe you are gone. I played this on my stacking record player with a needle the year it came out. Now I listen to it digitally 55 years later. Will miss you.
Would love to find out how the lives of these people went over the last 50 years and who they are. We all hoped better days were to come but Manson and the Angels at Altamont tore it all apart and shattered the dream. It's still glorious to watch and listen to this and have those feelings flood back. Peace.
"We all hoped better days were to come but Manson and the Angels at Altamont tore it all apart and shattered the dream" True. Then along came Regan in the US and Thatcher in the UK and the dream of a better world for everyone in the UK and US has been on the backfoot ever since.
Thank CIA, Tavistock Institute, SRI International & MI6 (underbelly of MIC) since they were actually the ones behind all of it including distribution of LSD.
Que gran época fue aquella! David Crosby que en ☮️ descanse! Haber estado en el festival de Woodstock año 1969 gran acontecimiento, inolvidable!! Acá en Chile lo vimos en el cine, se mostró lo mejor resumido, pero igual maravilloso. La música de Crosby y su grupo CSN &Y sonando fuerte y con mucho sentimiento🎸 Es la música de nuestro mucho tiempo ido, "Long Time Gone" . Una lágrima y un adiós, a los que se fueron 💖
Had a chance to see Crosby stills and Nash sometime ago. We sat in the balcony of this theatre and David Crosby step back from the mike and belted out this song. WOW! Still a great memory
despues de ver el film,cuando se estreno en Buenos Aires...mi cabeza literalmente volo...esta cancion es el reflejo de una generacion,no hay un solo dia que no escuche a CS&N,o The Who,despues de 51 años sigo sintiendo la misma emocion de aquel entonces...
Hermano, yo fui al trasnoche del cine Ritz a la 01,15 hs de los sabados. No menos de 15 veces. Cabildo y Lacroze, pateaba el piso de madera y soñaba con irme a California,
Tuve la experiencia de visitar Woodstock hace 1 mes, foto en la placa conmemorativa y después caminar por la ladera escuchando un par de temas de Santana y CS&N, mucha emoción, mágico.
It's been a long time comin' It's goin' to be a long time gone And it appears to be a long Appears to be a long Appears to be a long Time, yes, a long, long, long, long time Before the dawn Turn, turn any corner Hear, you must hear what the people say You know there's something it's going on around here It surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day, no And it appears to be a long (yes, it does) Appears to be a long (mmm) Appears to be a long Time, such a long, long time Before the dawn Speak out, you got to speak out against the madness You got to speak your mind, if you dare But don't, no, don't, no, try to get yourself elected If you do, you had better cut your hair, mmm And it appears to be a long (yes, it does) Appears to be a long (mmm) Appears to be a long Time, such a long, long, long, long time Before the dawn, yeah It's been a (long) long (time) time (comin') comin' It's goin' to be (long) a long (time) time (gone) gone But you know The darkest hour Is always, always just before the dawn And it appears to be a long Appears to be a long Appears to be a long time, such a long, long, long, long time Before the dawn
Gotta to say without that hippie chick trippin with me and the 3 bananas and got to say the ride there was so sweet my 4 buds and my girl breaking in new pipes all the way good fun just getting there the next 3 day's were trippen good. Best party so far.. . . .
FYI David Crosby wrote this song the night that Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Hence the line about not getting yourself elected but if you do you better cut your hair. It happened on the night I graduated from high school.
We've gone full circle and lines from this song can once again be considered relevant to events transpiring in our country today. Speak out against the madness if you dare! Probably my favorite CSN song, I sometimes think Wooden Ships is, with one of the worst endings ever!
Sabías palabras hermano Yo me quedé pegado en esa época hermosa y no me arrepiento sigo siendo un hippie en este frío Siglo XXI Estos tiempos del siglo XXI
Yasgurs farm still there, many red barns there, a large modern museum commemorating Woodstock. This comment made 50yrs, 10 months ago, RUclips just now posting it
If factor in, that their own equipment was blocked by 400000 people, that they borrowed Canned Heat’s PA &etc, and that Stephen was retuning “on the fly,” the “tight” sound you think you’re hearing would have sounded MUCH tighter...
Where'd that very last guitar chord come from? The song otherwise sounds identical to the CSN album version. Doesn't sound live at all. But then there's that power chord at the very end. Always wondered about that.
I always come back to this video. ❤
When life was Much simpler😊😊😊
The absolute PERFECT opening song for that movie - - it sets the WHOLE TONE FOR WHOLE GENERATION that made that time and that movie and all those great, great groups who were there SO perfect.
Our world would be a much better place if we could all "get back to the garden."
One of Crosby's best songs
Rest in peace, David Crosby, and thank you, especially for this great piece of music. It puts me in a frame of mind few other songs I can think of match.
totally agree RIP❤️
amen

Now working on my Book and my Film Script to my own end. Rest In Peace David Crosby. Thank you for everything!
Sometimes past memories. Are the best.
How cool to be able to say "i helped build the stage at the original (and only) Woodstock"
The guy who played Cliff the postman in Cheers helped build the stage. ✌🏻
Super cool 😎
@@lemmybon3100 John Ratzenberger... hilarious character.
How cool to be able to say that you were alive and lived through things that kids have to Google..
Right on❤
I was born in 1970, my parents both hippies and my mom was pregnant with me when they were there. So, technically, I was at Woodstock! 🤘🤘🤘🕊️✌️☮️
For someone who was not even born when this happened, gives me the damned chills. What talent.
I was born but at 5 years old no idea what it was. But I have been there to see concerts always a certain feeling there
David Crosby's father was a CIA agent. Reseasrch tavistock institute
Right I was born in 1976 but I’ve always been so fascinated with Woodstock and I love 50s 60s 70s 80s and beyond music ..of every genre.
There was a 20th anniversary thing on either Oprah or some show bk in 1989. I was a 12 year old skater kid girl who loved Guns n Roses & the Chili Peppers. My mom was apparently getting tired of me boasting about my music & had me watch this thing on a talk show about some 60s concert. Okay, pretty cool.

I love all kinds of music, but this movie totally did it for me.
i was alive and was digging it -- be 65 next month-- fucking love 1969--wow
Would liked to have been there Never be anything like this again Good old days
Ah, those guys and girls riding the horses... that sense of freedom! Just a halter and a total sense of joy.
To think that they are probably grandparents now!
Actually this is my favorite part of the movie.Whoever is responsible did a great job.It really makes you want to be there and sets the tone that this is something special even if you don't know any of the music.
Absolutely. Stills' guitar delivers all I ask of soloing, nor did Crosby's vocal disappoint.
Yeah this whole sequence is just so perfectly arranged. the visuals the audio. genious
Totally agree, living 10 min from the woodstock site makes it even better as the area has not changed much since, second to this for me would have to be wooden ships and the scenes of welding in the night.
god bless max yasger and his farm!!
gives me the chills too, my life was built on this and im 70 now but its a longer time now than ever before the dawn
That's cool! I bet you are proud of that -- I would be! An amazing event.
I remember the Fish Cheer! Maybe I will consider buying the CD of Woodstock '69
One of my favorite parts of the movie
Peace and Love
Gives me the chills
Same! Every time!
ive been looking for this song for years!!
today is the day!!
It actually hasn't been that far away all these years. Long Time Coming by CSNY ... c'mon! (:
@@TheWolfbass right on man
I SWEAR! If I could, I'd put January 1, 1965 - December 31, 1984 on a NEVER ENDING loop!
IMHO, the most exciting, prolific & vibrant 20 years in human history! And, if I was forced to downsize

RIP IT UP TEAR IT UP, THE WOODSTOCK GENERATION, RIP, MR CROSBY.
sparkling chills of harmony RIP David Crosby
RIP David Crosby ❤️❤️
que hermoso tiempo...
This song is on repeat daily. The words “it’s been a long time coming” means so much in my life right now!Thank you CSN for these timeless classics
love this song & everything it represents, you must hear what the people say!
Matt Baumgarten A truly beautiful and magical time. Love this song also.
👍👌👍✌
that single reference note? probably on keyboards... speaks out ..and the harmony is something else altogether..puren brilliance...can't say much more
*_50 YEARS OF WOODSTOCK_*
Woodstock, Agosto de 1969, o maior concerto de todos os tempos, tinha eu 17 anos... tempos inolvidáveis... tempos do Make Love Not War... o tempo do movimento hippie, um comportamento coletivo de contracultura dos anos 1960...
Old times that never come back
I was 14 years old at that time and the movie WOODSTOCK was my first aproach to the meaning of love and live
RIP Mr Crosby Your music will live on
yes indeed it will
I love this song. ✌️ my like minded friends ❤
What a masterpiece 🤩😍 RIP David we will miss you for a long long time .....

Masterpiece! Down memory lane!
Turning point of music! 1969 Woodstock!
ABSOLUTELY
Dave, it already feels that its a long time you have been gone, and its only a day.
And there is no dawn with you again.
Mr Crosby, sir, thank you.
rest in peace david crosby, thank you for tons of great music
Would love to find out how the lives of these people went over the last 50 years and who they are.

The Democratic & Labour parties weren't doing so great before Reagan & Thatcher.
Something else to think about.

Good job, beautiful song; I remember my happy years ...
wonderful band
rest in peace michael lang.
Awesome song
Best yrs of my life do to progress never happen sorry for people never to experience the 70s
It was a magical moment in time...until the tidal waves came and swept us asunder....
Que gran época fue aquella!
David Crosby que en ☮️ descanse!
Haber estado en el festival de Woodstock año 1969 gran acontecimiento, inolvidable!!
Acá en Chile lo vimos en el cine, se mostró lo mejor resumido, pero igual maravilloso.
La música de Crosby y su grupo CSN &Y sonando fuerte y con mucho sentimiento🎸
Es la música de nuestro mucho tiempo ido, "Long Time Gone" . Una lágrima y un adiós, a los que se fueron 💖
a classic csny had magic together
Peace and love!!
I remember the hippie i was ten yr old they were super cool they changed the country to do your own thing man
Had a chance to see Crosby stills and Nash sometime ago. We sat in the balcony of this theatre and David Crosby step back from the mike and belted out this song. WOW! Still a great memory
When I had hope.
The loss of David Crosby is the loss of the Woodstock generation.
Sabados en el Ritz en el barrio de Colegiales en Bs As. alla por el 71,y con este tema empezaba la emocion de ver una vez mas Woodstok
Como olvidar...XD
Long live hippie❤🏴☠️✌️👽💎🥳✌️🙏
Rip to David Crosby today 😢
simply awesome
This is such a beautiful track and filming ! Hopefully shows man , nature and music in harmony ! Superb 👌❤️
Epic scene!
despues de ver el film,cuando se estreno en Buenos Aires...mi cabeza literalmente volo...esta cancion es el reflejo de una generacion,no hay un solo dia que no escuche a CS&N,o The Who,despues de 51 años sigo sintiendo la misma emocion de aquel entonces...

Partying in the country in the 70s upstate ny, it was cool.
I remember my fourteen.......!!!
No habra epoca igual, yo lo vivi. Todavia habia esperanza
Very cool.
Tuve la experiencia de visitar Woodstock hace 1 mes, foto en la placa conmemorativa y después caminar por la ladera escuchando un par de temas de Santana y CS&N, mucha emoción, mágico.
As vezes fico pensando... Quando será que as próximas gerações de jovens, terão tempos tão felizes quanto nós que fomos jovens nessa época ?!
Difícil , las generaciones de ahora no tienen la mística de esa generación maravillosa...
Peace and love ☮️ ✌️
purely awesome
the original back ground of woodstock long time gone nice memories
Crazy to think it's coming up to 50 years ago.
Crazy Idn't i will soon be 64. I was 14 when woodstock was performed were has time gone such a great era!!!
@@kurtcomeaux2571 what do you remember of the summer of 1967?
iconic
Beautiful
Beyond Belief Groooovyyyy !!!
It's been a long time comin'
It's goin' to be a long time gone
And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Time, yes, a long, long, long, long time
Before the dawn
Turn, turn any corner
Hear, you must hear what the people say
You know there's something it's going on around here
It surely, surely, surely won't stand the light of day, no
And it appears to be a long (yes, it does)
Appears to be a long (mmm)
Appears to be a long
Time, such a long, long time
Before the dawn
Speak out, you got to speak out against the madness
You got to speak your mind, if you dare
But don't, no, don't, no, try to get yourself elected
If you do, you had better cut your hair, mmm
And it appears to be a long (yes, it does)
Appears to be a long (mmm)
Appears to be a long
Time, such a long, long, long, long time
Before the dawn, yeah
It's been a (long) long (time) time (comin') comin'
It's goin' to be (long) a long (time) time (gone) gone
But you know
The darkest hour
Is always, always just before the dawn
And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time, such a long, long, long, long time
Before the dawn
Gotta to say without that hippie chick trippin with me and the 3 bananas and got to say the ride there was so sweet my 4 buds and my girl breaking in new pipes all the way good fun just getting there the next 3 day's were trippen good. Best party so far.. . . .
Woodstock inesquecível! Qd havia rock and roll no ar!
Señor Crosby.....sic tibi terra levis
GOSTO MUITO DO ROCK DISTORCIDO JUNTO COM A SUAVIDADE RURAL DESSES CARAS
if they built it today, would we still come?? God, I hope so....
Man that would of been awesome to leave the stage there, I'd love to stand on it, would make it so more real to look out over that field.
😍 Daddy was there.. ❤️❤️❤️
I was there
please tell me more
:)
I'm happy for you!
Did you know that the creator of Woodstock is on the horse at 3:14?
FYI David Crosby wrote this song the night that Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Hence the line about not getting yourself elected but if you do you better cut your hair. It happened on the night I graduated from high school.
Crosby still Nash and Young " Long Time Gone"
🎉2024🎉
Good things happen sometimes very fast.
Me too Aaron

Relaxing Old School Hippie Shit.
It appears to be a long long long long long long time before the song thank you Google advertisement
Amo a todos mis prójimos, espero la tercera guerra no se de pero si es así tenemos que unirnos todos por la paz como en woodstock 1969.
Sabías palabras hermano
Yo me quedé pegado en esa época hermosa y no me arrepiento sigo siendo un hippie en este frío

WHO is the guy in white cowboy hat and sunglasses driving tractor at 2.00??? I don't care what he looks like today. I want him.

I was at Woodstock. CST& Y was probably the tightest group there - I think they came on at night and looked fantastic too.
Who's the "T"?
