"There's one more kid....that will never go to school....never get to fall in love...never get to be cool." That line always gets me right in my soul. God bless Neil Young.

My dad and I went to two Neil Young gigs in 2013 and 2014 and the man (and crazy horse) were just incredible. There are very few artists who put their heart and soul into every note they play and feel it and you can see him feel it - note - by note - the authenticity and rawness and pure magic is indescribable. There are very few people on this planet that I can put into the league of Neil Young.

[@edthacow]

Crazy Horse was dead in the 70's, not how you saw them.

[@SolarEclipse1996]

​@@edthacow Wtf are you blithering on about? Don't be so obtuse 🙄

[@edthacow]

The ultimate rock star. Played protest music once decade and rock out later. This song is my favorite rock song of of all time. Hundreds of better guitarists, singers, a couple better songwriters. Young is the best combination of them all imo.

[@andrewhaines3259]

Neil Young. Wiped the stage with most of the other artists playing on the Pyramid Stage, just with this track alone!

[@Lawrence_619]

untouchable...everytime I see him sing it, he is COMPLETELY invested that song. They just dont make 'em like Mr Young, anymore. I call him "The General of Rock 'N Roll", because he has his way of doing shit, and like a general, you ALWAYS get the feeling that him, and him alone, is running the show. His band, answers to him and does shit his way, or they probably dont have a damn job.

I was at this and it was magical. And I remember the coverage on the BBC was sparse, which happens for certain acts at Glastonbury. But the BBC does have an oligopoly on the coverage of it. Neil is unreal. I always thought from my several attendances at this festival. Some things I saw more covered than others. This set in 09 didn't get the credit it deserved. It was better than Radiohead or pulp.

Seen Mr. Neil Young four times, over a long time, 1983 to 2003, but I have never seen him as amped up as he was at this show. My God, he was leading the crowd in arm waves and everything, plus he didn't seem to want to stop the song, which is all good. I guess he had a message he wanted to get out. "Keep On Rockin' In The Free World!" RIGHT ON!!!

Listen to the lyrics, it’s not about what you may think it’s about.

[@jonstrummer6930]

​​@@ivanostry3359Aye right!. It's not a patriotic song at all. Quite the opposite. It's unreal that some folk can hear the lyrics and think it's some patriotic pro-US song (aye, I know he's Canadian) or whatever. Same with Springsteen's Born in the USA. It was far from a celebration of being born there

[@bobschenkel7921]

@@ivanostry3359 I know what the song is about, it is very hard hitting and in your face, like most Neil songs. It is just the amped up feeling that it gives you, despite the lyrics, and Neil knows how to work a crowd as well as anyone.
