Neil Young Natural Beauty Live Acoustic

[@keithgilbert915]

I played this song the night my daughter was born. The happiest night of my life. I’m sitting here years later with a beer in my band with tears of happiness coming down my face thank you Neil

[@jpzey4b275]

You did good K.G.

[@softail61]

Im 62 years old.....Neil has made such an impact on my life,he is truely a gift from God in my opinion ......one of the greatest musicians of our time....some of his songs make me cry......even after many years of listening to his music......such a great gift from God.....thank you Neil....❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Blindsquirrel74]

Lost my little sister two years ago to an accidental overdose. This song has taken me down roads of deep emotion and helped to bring me back from an overwhelming sadness that at one time I thought I would never recover. Thank you Neil Young.

[@jpzey4b275]

Stay the course CC

[@NareshKumar-ij1uh]

Music drips from his fingers, his arms, his legs, his mouth. All in unison. All playing together. That's Neil Young for you. Natural and beautiful.

[@asokanponnusamy]

You forgot his heart of gold

[@BillyBobBeMe]

That video is golden. The man is a national treasure. Really puts his soul into his music. This has to be one of the greatest songs of the last hundred years.

[@catia512]

One of his greatest songs. I love his guitar play, his harmonica play and his unique voice. He's my canadian idol.

[@Karmakatt6]

Been a fan of Neil's for almost 25 yrs. Natural Beauty sloowwllyy became one of my favorites off of Harvest Moon. Now, I'm proud too say, this is my favorite Neil Song. His music becomes more important the older I get. And if it makes you weep, it's doing it's job.

[@rodneycaupp5962]

Only 25 years... In 1969 it was an absolute gas when CSNY played Woodstock LIVE. Wasn't he also in the Hollies perhaps with Steven Stills in 62, 63 when I got that new bike and bought a transistor radio with paper route money. GOLDEN this man is...

[@aliveinsuperunknown]

"what a lucky man to see the earth before it touched his hand" by far my favorite neil lyrics

[@rodneycaupp5962]

GOOSE BUMPS and at times tears, This song has stopped me mid harmony so many times as I've sung it with the Acoustic. It is an Absolute Beauty for sure.

[@julyarchives]

What a great tune.One of Neil Youngs best in my mind

[@Quebecoisegal]

I love the way Neil can switch from being a grungy heavy guitarist in a band to being a troubadour like this, so so so talented.

[@whatdoyouknow4843]

Yes, I like that too. IN his acoustic performances like this, he has a pure and clear sound both singing and playing. Everything is quiet and I think everyone is captivated. HIs guitar playing so refreshing and yes very much in contrast to his grunge playing.

[@jpzey4b275]

It's harder than it looks!!✌😎😁

[@cardo1111]

One of his greatest songs in a phenomenal catalog. I remember instantly liking it when I bought the CD when it first came out in '92, hard to believe that was 26 years ago. Chilling guitar and harmonica touches the soul. I can't think of any musician that can make you feel like you are part of the story being told like Neil Young can a great gift.

[@keithgilbert915]

Will never forget hearing harvest moon album as a kid my mom always had it playing. They sure don't make musical genius like Neil anymore I weep for the crap kids are listening to today and will never hear beautiful lyrics like this long live rock and roll

[@JayHarveyRockNRoll]

Due to the ability to make recordings, the music will always live forever, it's just that the successive generations will have to work to seek it out. Question is...will they?

[@acupofvideos]

Keith Gilbert same with me. My mom played it growing up and I loved all the songs.

[@Fintan33]

I know what you mean, but hey man never say never..

[@elhoward7440]

"Kids these days" are listening to 70's music! They're lucky, they have 60 years worth of recordings they can access at any time for free. My teenage daughter listens to the same music I listened to in high school sometimes -- and she puts it on for me in the car.

[@delcourarnaud238]

The very best Neil Young's video I've ever seen in my all life. I'm 50's and so proud of your talents of photographer. This is the more powerful sensation I ever felt.

[@catia512]

The most emotional song and my favorit song for all time. Neil is the best. Great upload. Thank you.

[@baconcheeseburgerny]

Harvest Moon was such a treat in 90s. I discovered music from 60s & 70s like Neil & the Dead. This album was like an anthem for my friends & I as we all fell in love with camping & nature together. This song triggers beautiful feelings in my heart's memory. It get me emotional & longing for that beautiful period where my choices were becoming my own and i formed friendships lasting a lifetime! Such a quality album almost 30 yrs after his career started. Thx Uncle Neil!

[@junglebhoy28]

An absolute masterpiece

[@TheChev1946]

So much talent in one individual ...anointed man indeed

[@elhoward7440]

I am pretty sure Neil Young is second only to Bob Dylan in terms of number of times their songs have been covered. This is one of the songs where his imperfect voice works perfectly.

[@lindaanderson7816]

Neil, I am so entranced with you as a person, your music and your insights, there will be another you, ever

[@julyarchives]

What a great tune from a master melody man .If Bob Dylan says Youngs melodies are the best he,s ever heard.Thats good enough for me

[@derricklasaga7375]

His is a soul and spirit that is the first and will be last of it's kind. This fact leads me to smile in warmth when I hear his music or when his lyrics cross my mind but also blows a cold wind across my heart in knowing that one day he will leave us.

[@patrickmcdonald5690]

Classic. Timeless. And brilliant. Musical genius.

[@NancyR3454]

Just returned from Amazonia. I've always loved this Neil tune, but more fully understand it now.

[@8-tracktheater262]

This song is even better live, thanks for the re up. Good luck planet Earth.

[@hectorveron8923]

Thank You for posting this !! Really thank You !! 🇦🇷🇦🇷❤️🇦🇷❤️🇦🇷🇦🇷🔥🔥!! Es Una Flecha directa Al corazón !!! Tremendo !! NEIL YOUNG !!!

[@julyarchives]

What a great tune .One of the many that Neil Young has conjured up from the ethos we live in

[@Filosofojuan]

Many Blessings to Neil... I used to listen to this song while reading to Krishnamurti and I tell you It was pure Bliss.............!!

[@thelastrebelshow1627]

Definitely one of Neils best albums but it’s hard to say that since their all great. 🤘🔥🤘

[@KSK466]

one of the most coolest dudes in rock and roll a total icon

[@dansoliwoda8149]

this came into my life rite wen my father got sik with cancer an a couple of years later i was in nature an found my true self and it was the greatest time in my life but then i also realized in nature that i had to return to the world wich is so far from where i found myself in god i held this for as long as i could an i ges it does stay with you

[@RobertMc1994]

Wow , recently bought his "Harvest Moon" album after hearing "My My , Hey Hey". This song is incredible, with songs that run for over 6-7minutes i would usually turn off half way through but this is different , really incredible song my fav from the album.

[@elhoward7440]

"Harvest" and "Harvest Moon" were done with the same backup band, and they are 2 of Young's best albums -- listen to both! "Landing on Water" was his worst. Everything else he's recorded I love and can listen to over and over again.

[@johnnyg.1964]

I managed to rescue a liitle girl stuck up a deep slope beside a river Her Mother was also stuck and could not reach her I chose a different route through the trees to reach her .I reached outto her hand she trusted me me and made her safe cradled her to the next level .Holding small branches as we got down the hill .Confidence gained she made her way .Then helped Mother Down slowly .Gratatude for doing what is Natural to help others and smiles all round make us Human .

[@vet137]

Young fan since 1978 and still keep finding songs I love that he did..he could play a flat top like it was some kind of of orchestra!

[@powderfinger1233]

Neil young is my GOD

[@user-eb5mt6zq3r]

One of the best songs ever.

[@wearing7bells463]

anyone? april 2017? so greatful this is here for us to hear omg am turning everyone I know and have ever Known onto this amazing-ness merci beacoup/ ? muchas gracias Thank you acupofvideos ! MAHALO TY & TY again for sharing Neil Young w/ the world Can't TY enough

[@50nostromo]

a one man symphony- beautiful...

[@thelastrebelshow1627]

Neil young is text book guitar player. His right hand almost never stops moving up and down no matter what he's playing which is exactly how your suppose to play a guitar but very few people do for some reason. There will never be another Neil Young.

[@tedpeterson1156]

Noticed that too. He's got that "chop" thing goin' on some songs too. If anybody should have a hole in their guitar, it should be Neil Young, not Willie Nelson.

[@calrab9411]

Among the ten songs to bring to the moon.

[@toupretno1]

What a great tune .One of Neil Youngs many .This is a special one i think

[@daltondogger]

Possibly the best storysong Neil has done yet...vibe reminds me of Interstate , the version with Neil sittin on the Caddy...would be a christmas gift if someone could put it back up , thanks .

[@neilmostert]

Beauty of a song.Performed with a real feeling.

[@BibleBlack667]

Excellent! Whenever I play this on Harvest Moon, not unknown to get repeated ten times ... for a 10 minute track that's saying something .. never seen it live - this is just beautiful .. made my week - been sacked from two jobs in the last 7 days (moronic Us employers with zero sense of humour or sense)- fkem - this has made my day, my week,and, yeah, probably my month. Big up to the man that posted this (or lady) Love it!

[@frigerzoid]

It's not often played song by NY, really worth posting - thanks!

[@carlolabombarda4986]

Oh grande e inesausto cow-boy, percorri i sentieri polverosi della tua anima, alla ricerca della poesia del vivere, della musica più dolce e persuasiva che si possa trovare. Non stancarti mai di raccontarci storie di frontiera, con quell’ insaziabile desiderio di giustizia e d’amore che non ti abbandonerà se non all’ultimo tuo respiro. Qui canto Neil Young, un gigante della musica d’ogni tempo

[@anvikshiki]

Looks to me like this is from the '92 performance in Chicago. One of Neil's greatest ever solo performances, IMHO, right up there with the '71 Massey Hall concert. There's not many better things in the wide world than Neil Young by himself on a Martin. Thanks for posting.

[@JayHarveyRockNRoll]

Another underrated gem in the Neil Young catalog. I'm guessing he doesn't play it much live simply due to its length.

[@shawnmann]

On the roller coaster ride That my emotions have to take me on I heard a newborn baby cry Through the night. I heard a perfect echo die Into an anonymous wall of digital sound Somewhere deep inside Of my soul. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature Don't judge yourself too harsh, my love Or someday you might find your soul endangered A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature. Amazon You had so much and now so much is gone What are you gonna do With your life? What a lucky man. To see the earth before it touched his hand What an angry fool To condemn. One more night to go One more sleep upon your burning banks A greedy man never knows What he's done. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature Don't start yourself too short, my love Or someday you might find your soul endangered A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature. Went to the rodeo today I saw the cowgirls lined up on the fence A brand new Chevrolet A brand new pair of seamless pants. We watched the moment of defeat Played back over on the video screen Somewhere deep inside Of my soul. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature.

[@aldebaranredstar]

Don’t *sell* yourself too short

[@gypsy4460]

OMG Brilliant Love you Neil / Loved your book a lot, was sad when it ended

[@curtisreidbarnes123]

Can't explain all the things this song has gotten me through. Can't even remember half of them.

[@kiva667]

ah one more night in Peru in the selva sleepng the burning banks of a small river - how it brings me bavk to those days

[@savignychristophe4030]

Thanks so much i'm french and its m'y best song m'y dream listen him in live neil Young the best

[@LL-fo3nf]

as beautiful as it gets...

[@catia512]

I've never heard before live this amazing song. I saw Neil Young this year (07/13) with crazy horse in Germany and i hope may i see Neil in the future on a solo tour with this song. He's the best and my favorit. A Canadian legend.

[@guyglowmore1]

thanks for posting this magnificent pinch of history

[@GITTA521]

What a lucky man. To see the earth before it touched his hand....Neil,you are the Best !!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@iamkloeful]

Awesome, thank you.....I keep looking for old ways, sure wish someone would up load it...love though....he is one of the best....

[@yourisaforever]

Still listening...Harvest moon October 2020

[@johnkondrk1382]

fabulous song..love it

[@btragal]

Oh wow man, that end is different than the PBS version. Just amazing.

[@oldguy3074]

+btragal Absolutely .

[@aaronbrandt3305]

I remember once with my Cub Scout troop, we got to take a tour of the paper mill not far from here. Me and the folks in the '78 Olds Delta, we had this tape playing, and the song "War Of Man" was playing as we pulled up... this song was playing as we pulled out (cold out, had to let the car warm up)... still have the first issue tape, also... it's fairly worn.

[@timothywiebe4714]

I loved this song decades ago. Neil went on to express disdain for people on my side of the spectrum. Quit listening... This version combines compassion, wisdom, and musicality beyond description. That my respect for Neil after this soared to the the highest heights is particularly poignant for the fact that he sincerely doesn’t give a damn about my opinion. His immeasurable talent and self-determination render him a giant amongst men to me.

[@nixus69]

truely a lucky man is somebody like that. to see the innocents of a place. but as we evolve as mankind, we can be caretakers and enhance the planet with our vibrations. for that greed needs to make place for understanding through sharing...something that some forces try to supress with their cheap ideas of divide and rule... but no action is in vain...stay close by your people...dont get trapped...listen to each other... thx acupofvideos for your idea

[@michaelkoller633]

Not very many artists knows how to make my heart cry.

[@martinlewis928]

The best version of this song is the last track on harvest moon, this man has understanding

[@junglequest1]

this song hits a nerve... awesome!

[@zumamamayoung]

Thank you for re-uploading this classic! "I heard a perfect echo die" until NOW! ;-)

[@BibleBlack667]

Lost my sister in 1970 - aged 7 -she 4 - it never goes away, ever - feel for you .. hope you make a better life than I have .. seriously .. nobody wants that .......

[@julyarchives]

What a great tune .NY playing this [his] beautiful song on acoustic guitar and harp is something special .In my mind its as raw and powerful as a NYCH electric onslaught .

[@richietafoya3235]

so good from deep inside the soul

[@danzarRnR]

amazing...beautiful.. This is history in the making.

[@sedantez24]

Thanks for posting this - one of my favourite Neil Young songs

Only wish there was an option to play on a continuous loop. You did an outstanding job on this my friend.

[@alustoon]

love it, thanks for upload

[@nixus69]

i remember 20 years ago my art teacher told me he used to put this song on repeat and painted some of his big canvas through his inspiration

[@frigerzoid]

It's not often played song by NY, really woth posting - thanks!

[@zoomerofall]

That third verse catches my heart every time.

[@alex_angri]

YES! I was thinking the same thing! But what is it? The rodeo? The chevrolet? The pants ? The moment of defeat? The video screen? Or all those things and how he paints this simple American picture.

[@sgbridgette]

Love u Neil!!

[@tonylewis1803]

Was watching "Almost Famous" tonight........this is in the soundtrack briefly and is still confused with Cortez the Killer. Wiki wrongly lists the song as Cortez as well. A great tune!

[@erwinboermans1394]

Thank you ,a beauty

[@jwebbw]

Check out Neil Young Freedom acoustic concert 1989 on here....Neil and Stevie Ray Vaughan really play with a lot of feeling....Caught both of them, separately, on the northern coast, Eureka Ca. in the late 80's.........

[@jetblack76]

The man is a genius. Any musician would kill to write one song that could be considered a bona fide classic. Neil Young has written at least 6, maybe closer 12.

[@kevinkosar6232]
