Neil Diamond - Solitary Man

[@adrianbabino8580]

I was 19 when I heard this song for the first time. I am 70 now and I still love it!

[@ozedofzearth4373]

I'm 21 and I'm sure I'd be loving this song at 70.

[@joegongora2200]

I was 14 & in Junior High when this song came out in 1970. At that time Hurricane Celia had devastated Corpus Christi, Tx. But this song has always been a favorite of mine. I'm 65 Yrs old and probably will still be listening to this song till the end of my days. Good music such as this is hard to come by. Neil Diamond if you're still performing out there Sir... KEEP ROCKIN !!! Your music will always live on !!!

"Solitary Man" is a great song. Probably the best song Neil Diamond has ever composed.

[@vandykefive]

I met Neil at the Brill Bldg When I was writing in my young age. He was good then And fabulous now. Artv

[@wecanonlywish9194]

Yes.. The music could simply be a track, with him singing live. But Horn sounds are produced by synthesisers today..

Totally hear them 😊

​@@wecanonlywish9194 have you seen his concerts??? He has a small horn section.

[@leslieabrassart4236]

It will never be a question of age to appreciate a great artist like Neil Diamond. I'm more than thirty years younger than him and he's my favorite singer, poet and composer ... And forever! You just need to have the sense of feelings, emotion, sincerity and to love a deep and wonderful soul, an exceptional intelligence and a free mind. If you've got the notion and the feeling of all that, you will love that artist like no other ... And I do love him like no other! En français, vous êtes le plus grand des talents, dear Neil Diamond. ❤️

[@cragwhit]

He still looks and sounds great. I know that our legends won't live forever, but I am happy to hear this one do such a great and timeless job. Thank you, Neil.

[@Al_V]

Accomplished and worthy of credit as being one of the greatest. As a young kid and listening to him, he had an amazing ability to impact my moods. Can you imagine? Being that young and molded to feel what he wanted his songs to do. I heard he's a perfectionist. Well, mission accomplished.

[@wendysogoloff8934]

Thank you Jessie.we love Neal so much.Im so sorry about his illness.I prayed to god for him to get better and able to work again.I will be front and center if that happens.please let him know.I am his #1 fan.❤❤❤😊😊

[@tommckinnon1005]

Simply one of the best crafted pop songs of all time, poignant lyrics, haunting melody.

When that song came out I was maybe 12 or 13.. I KNEW this song was incredible. I KNEW Mr. Diamond was going places. And he sure has.

My Dad, #1 Neil Diamond fan. He sadly passed away recently. I will forever miss him. As a young guy the first time he heard this song on the radio, had to know who sang it. From there on had to get all his records. He even named my youngest brother Neil after who he called the great Neil Diamond!! l love you Dad. Xoxoxoxo This songs for you❤😢

[@maddyL1234]

Every note tells a story. Truthfully I think he's the best musician and singer of all time. There are lots more great ones, but he's the greatest.

[@performingsys]

Amazing how legendary artists like Neil Diamond simply perform their songs because they are great. He comes out on stage and sings without having what seems like hundreds of dancers and laser lights. At least when you go to see him entertain you know what to expect. You know you won't think you are at the circus.

[@nashtndawg]

[@TheFunkhouser]

"Solitary Man" was the first record Diamond recorded under his own name that made the charts. It remains one of his personal all-time favorites, as it was about his early years as a songwriter, even though he failed to realize it at the time: It wasn't until years later, when I went into Freudian analysis, that I understood that it was me. It was an outgrowth of my despair.

[@RonSafreed]

Portrait of a Legend this song is priceless

Neil Diamond (born in 1941) is celebrating his 77th birthday today January 24, 2018. He is one of America’s most enduring songwriters best known for his singalong hits “Sweet Caroline” and “Cracklin’ Rosie,” it was announced Monday that he has Parkinson’s disease, and is retiring from concert touring as a result of the diagnosis.

[@perfectstranglers]

Neil's voice has not deteriorated over the years as have other singers from his era. This is extraordinary- I would imagine he sings with good vocal technique to preserve his voice instead of "belting".

[@zenonkolacz3004]

Charbel Scoulou sorry mate, but his range is narrower and an octave lower, but fundamentally still in tune and recognisable as ND

[@jmpsthrufyre]

Good point. The most I've heard him belting is on Coming to America.And that's not even belting. He might be beltless.
