Neil Young - Heart Of Gold FIRST REACTION

[@ryanreklaw]

My first Neil Young concert; my Mom took me to when I was 8 and I was hooked... one of my top favorite musicians and songwriters... Today I am 42 and recently went to a Neil Young show in LA and I will never tire of his banter and humor between songs; just like he was here fumbling with his harmonicas; he did the same and had a glass of water he was dipping them into and even went as far as throwing one across the stage because it didn't sound right. I lost count of how many times I have seen him perform but he is like none other. A national treasure and gentleman

[@gungadin406]

Lovely. I bought " After the Gold rush " when it first came out and I still have it. I still today sing the songs from it and it was very helpful to have the words on a sheet. I wish you well.

[@VincentOReilly-ts4jl]

A Heart of Gold and a rainy day where ones dreams dance across the Harbour

You should go for Old Man, from this same show, on your next Neil Young reaction. Sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it.

[@sabina1118]

Noted, Thanks!

[@carols1406]

Old Man is a super recommendation. One of my all-time favourite songs.

[@samuellord8576]

Old Man, yes!!! It’s the first popular (not church) song I ever memorized…sang it hundreds of times by myself, it healed me. This was over 50 years ago, around the time of this concert. And I never understood it until someone kindly explained that in its two stanzas he sings the voices of _two_ people, first himself, then the old man. Then all of it snaps into place. I simply didn’t expand my imagination enough! Neil’s talent is INCREDIBLE. He has two very different versions of the _same_ song, another gorgeous ballad called “Cowgirl in the Sand.” I’d always loved the tender folk version. But he has a rock and toll version that is STUNNING! He’s one of the greatest guitarists ever, I had no idea that he played like Clapton, etc. You will never run out of great songs by Neil, his talent goes forever. Take care 😘

[@TheTomt50]

Yes, definitely a live version.

[@joyceharkin3641]

Harvest was the first album I ever bought, still play it, still love it! He has a great catalogue and he never sold his soul - always honest.

[@bobbyadler4665]

Heard Neil young's after the gold rush album in 1976 ....changed the way I listened to music forever...♥️

I was listening this song when I was 12 yo and falling in love this song just like that ❤❤❤

[@bobb9541]

I'm over 70 and Neil became my favorite artist in the early 1970's with his album After the Gold Rush. I still have that album today.

[@Lakeshore14]

Absolutely love Neil Young. He is a genius and has always been so down to earth. I could listen to Neil Young all day. Thanks for this. 👏👏🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@srjwaugh]

Neil Young is one of my favourite singer/songwriters. His storytelling is so authentic, as it touched my heart & soul.

[@gregsulman8659]

I have always loved Neil Young; a great writer and musician. This was the first song I learnt to play on guitar. Thank you for showing him Sabina😍

[@CathyBrady-nr6kg]

Of all the concerts I've been to since 1974 Neil Young was the best and only one I've ever been asked to leave 😢 I didn't leave 😎

[@pablolazaromartinez3541]

❤️ Neil !!

[@dougclarkson7947]

I’ve been a fan of Neil Young since I was a young teen in the early 70’s, have always been a huge fan. In 2009 I took my family to Disney World in Orlando, and when returning to Kingston Ontario our home town I heard on the radio that Neil was playing at our local arena, instead of going home first I went straight to the arena and got tickets for the show. Neil’s dad was living here in Kingston when he passed, Neil was here to bury his dad a few months before and said he was coming back for a show (I learned this at the show) he dedicated Heart of Gold to him that night, it was a great concert!

[@tomas347]

"Old Man" from same performance. Another great one

[@PhilH919]

As you say great intermate performance. He is Canadian, but performed in the USA with people like Crosby, Stills & Nash. I believe this as in the UK at the BBC. Very intermate concert setting. Lots of singer songwriters performed at these small concerts. The likes of James Taylor etc All in the early part of their careers.

[@marke8323]

Neil Was a Canadian, he is a American citizen now and voted in out last Presidencial Elections and married actress Darl Hanna after he and Perggi were divorced (she passed away not long after that...)

[@profjohnfrinks]

I've rocked with you on many a nightwish reaction; however, my roots are in classic rock, where Neil is royalty. He is a gem, along with his on and off again Crosby Stills and Nash. Check out some of their stuff, you will not be disappointed.

[@steverobey711]

Hi coming from England I was listening to Neil Young growing up I am now retired and still listening to this Awesome music 👍👍👍all the best from Nottinghamshire UK A

[@DerGeek]

Great reaction and commentary, loving the format with the subtitles not taking away anything from the artists during their performances.

[@cheryla7480]

Neil Young was born in Toronto, but he grew up in my home town of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I’ve always loved his music one of my favourites is “ Harvest Moon “.

[@patrickbrown9703]

You did a great reaction. The fact that you don't intrude is beautiful and speaks of your humility. Thank you for a great reaction.

[@valnauffts9965]

I never really appreciated Neil Young’s voice but this was lovely . It had a homey comfortable vibe that made me reminisce old times when I heard it years ago . Thank you Sabina for opening my heart a little more .

[@klauswyatt1050]

When i was a kid in the 70,s me and my brother wanted to be Neil Young, and just loved Crosby , Stills , Nash, and Young, and their wooden music, they called it. They were the best. Hearing your reaction to Heart of Gold was great. It took me back to that more innocent time, when folk rock was the new thing, and there were so many great and creative bands. But these guys were the kings. You should check out these songs from Neil Young: Old Man Out on the weekend After the Gold Rush Words Pochohantes Cowgirl in the Sand Hey hey my my Cinnamin girl Crodby, Stills, Nash & Young.

You did great. I enjoyed your reaction. You're so respectful.

[@sabina1118]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@sjd5750]

Love your reaction!..New Sub!...As mentioned below, "Old Man" from this same concert (keep in mind, this concert is 50 years old, so he truly is an old man, today)....Neil is a deep well. Enjoy, because whether it's solo Neil, him with his band Crazy Horse, and, of course, with Crosby, Stills, and Nash, it's a journey well worth traveling.

[@marke8323]

Have seen him 12 times in concert... Had to Sub you...

[@edwardimhoff3106]

The "I love you". at the end was a nice touch. A solitary man that is old does not hear that spoken very often. Neil Young, Steven Stills Graham Nash, Bob Crosby, Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Miss Buffy St. Marie... These are Folk Rock artists. Some of them also protest singers, It's a genre you would really enjoy. A Fire in the fire place, An old man to tell you stories in between songs as you sip on your Garadelli hot drinking cocoa . ... Author Edward F Imhoff

[@scottgorski7931]

Very down to earth person. I remember years ago reading an article in a music publication where the writer went to Neils property for an interview. Neil said sure but I'm working on the sound for an outdoor concert so you'll have to follow me. They walked down to a small lake and got into a row boat and rowed out about 30 yards into the lake. A man on shore opened the doors to a barn on the right and then the side of what looked like an old corn crib on the left. There were stacks of speakers in both buildings facing the lake. The assistant then played a recording of one of Neils songs. After the song the assistant shouted, what do you think. Neil replied, NEEDS MORE BARN. No computer, just put himself in the audiences place to see if the levels sounded right.

[@johnhull1955]

You need to react to OLD MAN from the same concert, you will love it. you are Brilliant by the way, i love your reactions, thank you.

[@espenvippen]

Lovely reaction. "old music" is best. Had to have talent before.. 😀

[@jamierobson8825]

Love this - more Neil Young! Harvest Moon & Old Man are other great ones to react to.

[@stevepierce1238]

Sabina, I loved the Henri story selling the NY book. Neil in the 60's was pure genius whereby his songs about life dealing you what you make of it and social justice. "Old Man" "Harvest Moon" "Down By the River" and "Southern Man" are timeless classics. Thanks for the memory gate. Your generation would appreciate it because he had soul with warmth.

[@brucehaydenjr1478]

He also had a very angry side to some of his songs. He wrote "Ohio" after four student protesters at Kent State University in Ohio were shot and killed by National Guardsmen. Nearly 20 years later he wrote "Keep on Rockin' in the Free World" protesting the state of things in American society prior to the first Gulf War, Desert Storm.

[@Silence_Duder_Gooder]

[@birminghamchris9377]

A true gentleman of music as well as a prolific song writer. For me, he is up there with the likes of Taupin/John and dare I say, Lennon/McCartney? This song was I think a number 1 in the US/Canada but I may stand corrected on that. His contribution to music is considerable..and that’s not even including his time with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Great song choice. Sabina..a ‘happy looking’ reaction which I liked. 🙏

First intro was KSAN radio when he played with Buffalo Springfield (For What it's Worth was the classic from that album). Then saw him at the Fillmore in SF.

I've seen Neil live many times over the years,and my favorite part of the shows has Always been his solo, acoustic set 🎸❤️🎤 The songs are Truly Beautiful,and From The Heart ❤️‍🔥 Simply Love Neil's Music.. I always throw Neil's acoustic set of songs in my CD player when I'm driving through Franconia Notch in The White Mountains here in New Hampshire, USA ..

Great song. Would love your reaction to his song ‘Old Man’.

[@Tampahop]

My favorite Neil Young story... Neil Young was always experimenting with music styles to varying degrees of success. He wanted to do an album with a heavy electronic music theme, but his record label didn't think it would sell. They wanted him to do another rock and roll album, and that's exactly what they told him. So he did, but being a rebel and not liking being told what to do artistically he did the unexpected. He recorded what was essentially a rock-a-billy album called Everybody's Rockin'. The big cut off the album was "Wonderin' " with the Shocking Pinks and even included "doo-wah" backup singers. While his record label was furious, they produced the album anyway because he had, after all, done what they asked. I recommend checking out the video for "Wonderin'." I think you'll get a kick out of it, and get the joke.

[@aguythatworkstoomuch4624]

Your reactions are honest and the best. I agree with you on almost every song!

[@craigwells3655]

I knew you'd fall in love with him. 'Old man' from the same time is so nice too.

He is Canadian, of course he's a nice guy. I've been to the town he grew up in. He gave this live performance before the song came out on an album. Harvest was released in 1972 and this was from 1971.

I first heard Neil Young when I was a kid in the late 60s growing up in the SF Bay Area. Since then I have seen him several time live as a solo show like this video, Solo with a full bend behind him, and with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (CSN&Y). Always a quality performer and a true music legend.

[@wimve4719]

Your reaction was so fantastic! Thanks so much

[@jublaim]

😊 Thank you, I had never seen this version of Heart Of Gold before! Normally I don't like when a musician strip down a full band song to a singer-songwriter guitar (and harmonica) only; but in the case of Neil Young it works just fine. Maybe because he composes his songs on acoustic guitar or piano only, then adding drums and bass and keyboards. I found Neil in the '70s with "Live Rust" and was astonished by his both sides; the rockin' electric guitar guy soloing fantasticly and then the singer/songwriter guy like in "I am a child". His fellow canadian Randy Bachman (a vivid storyteller) has great stories on YT that includes some Neil Young references and Neil features in the song "Prairie town" and play on both versions. Graham Nash was "a bit" reluctant to Neil though, judging from Grahams biography😄

[@gungadin406]

I bought " After the Gold rush " when it first came out and I still have it. I often sing the songs from it still today, it was very helpful to have the words on a sheet right in front of you. He wrote the songs and he played them live, he had my utmost respect then and always will. In my opinion Donovan was the closest that we had in the UK to Neil.

He did a live song from 4way Street with Crosby, Still & Nash. It was my first live example of his work. The song was called Don't Let it Bring you Down. It completely blew me away. His casual joking at the start and the deep stab of the lyrics. I've been a fan ever since.

[@ptrlxc]

Back in the day there were “Coffee Houses” everywhere, where aspiring musicians (especially those who played acoustic guitars like Neil is playing now). It could have from 10 to 100 people listening to people to decide to take the stage and play guitar and sing. I played this song at a coffee house in my hometown when I was a mid-teenager. It was the beginning of my playing in public. That is until I saw what could be in store for me as a working musician: traveling all the time, hotel, to hotel. Wasn’t my life style. I still play, but just for fun.

[@195511SM]

Several years ago, I either heard.....or read that THIS was his first big hit. But he wasn't happy with it for some reason. I LOVE Neil Young, though I prefer his acoustic stuff over the electric. By the way....is there any way you could increase the volume. Another great video of his was 'Harvest Moon'.

[@laurakennedy9250]

I was kind of surprised that it took so long to find your channel, I really enjoyed watching this. After scrolling through your videos I noticed that your range of artists is very limited, and since I have never entered any of them in my searches, that would explain why I've never seen your videos before. It would be nice if you explored some new artists. There's a great big world of music out there that you're missing.
