Growing up with his music, I am so thankful for my generation. His voice and his writing will forever be listened to. Please, Parkinson's be good to Neil Diamond and all who have this disease.

In addition to all the well-deserved praise and accolades for being a talented and fabulous songwriter, singer, and performer, Neil Diamond is also a humble and gentlemanly person. If I could meet only one celebrity, it would be him!

So sorry to hear of your devastating illness. Been a fan since you started I'm now 84. Love you and your music. As always I will love you! God knew what he was doing when you were born and threw out the mold because there will never be another you.

A true classic piece, under appreciated for it's time. Neil will always be a blessed song writer for all he has given us.

[@neilzircon]

If you're talking about the soundtrack (not the movie itself), it couldn't have been that "underappreciated" since it won him his only Grammy

[@patricialawrence919]

There is no age limit for his fans.❤

[@melmatthews5876]

As a classical soprano who adores oratorio, I believe Neil Diamond could have written an incredible oratorio blending all the faiths together. He seems to be a very spiritual man. God bless him and his loved ones always. Thank you God for sending this musical genius to the world.

[@amandameunier4157]

He composed songs 🎵..he didn't just write songs. He was deeply inspired by Mozart and the Classical and Baroque periods of music.

Neil Diamond has blessed me with his music for many years and my grown children love him too. I saw Neil three times in Atlanta and he is an excellent musician , song writer and entertainer. You can tell he loves what he does. Thank you Neil!❤

The book was a best seller as was Neil Diamond's self composed soundtrack (winning him his only Grammy). On the other hand, the movie sucked (and tanked) and both Neil and the author on the book sued the director and screenplay writer

[@neilzircon]

I'm going to say as best as can be expected because they're not saying anything from the home front. I think we'll be able to find out a lot by seeing if he shows up for the premiere of the Broadway opening a "Beautiful Noise".. He showed up for the Boston opening in late June but never gave one interview or said one word

[@fabienh3943]

I'm 58 and I believe Jonathan Livingston must be the first movie ever to stick to my soul. I never rewatched it since the early seventies, afraid to be dissappointed? But the soundtrack, in spite of my wandering through the "hardest" and weirdest forms of alternative and underground music in the early 80ies, never disappointed. I found it stunningly beautiful as a 10 years old kid, and still today it's comforting when I need that. And I think that poetic movie made me a convinced ecologist for the rest of my life :-) If the US brought one thing to the rest of the world, let it be Neil Diamond's music :-)

[@dorothynewhouse1848]

[@lindaforman2945]

I'm right there with you, Eloise. You said it so beautifully, I have nothing more that needs to be added. This was recorded around the time I was in high school, and every morning while driving to school in my well-loved little blue (used) Chevy Nova, I would play a game. If a Neil Diamond song came on the radio, I knew it was going to be a GREAT DAY! I have never enjoyed any artist as much as him.
