Ohio - Neil Young Carnegie Hall Jan 10, 2014

Ohio - Neil Young Carnegie Hall Jan 10, 2014. The first 1:27 relates to the prior song, A Man Needs A Maid. I might trim it if I get a chance. (NOTE: KZbin says I cannot trim with over 100,000 views!!)

He played 4 nights solo at Carnegie Hall. It was about 5 degrees out. I was lucky enough to be there. It was an unbelievable night. One of the peak experiences of my life.

[@alexandersargeaunt2643]

Agreed. I had tickets to the second show , and no one knew what the show was going to be (solo/Crazy Horse/another band) and what songs he’d play. And after night one, when everyone saw the set list and format, I could’ve sold my tickets for like $600. Such a special experience in my life.

[@user-kx6qx7wn3t]

The synergy of the vocal, the lyric, and the music is what I call the triple play. It is rarer than you think, and most solo artists would be lucky too achieve it two times, maybe three in their entire careers. Neil Young is in my opinion the greatest artist of all-time because he has achieved this feat 100 times or more.

[@st.charlesborromeo9793]

We covered this at the time it first came out. Wrote a second verse. “State troopers and sawed off shotguns, they’re firing on our homes. Blacks dying in Mississippi, whites dying in Ohio” refers to an event at the time.

Это было Чистейших надежд выражение, В миг, Когда, беззащитна, как совести тоненький пульс, Ты вложила цветок В держимордово дуло ружейное И сказала: «Цветы лучше пуль». Не дарите цветов государству, Где правда карается. Государства такого отдарок циничен, жесток. И отдарком была тебе, Аллисон Краузе, Пуля, Вытолкнувшая цветок. Пусть все яблони мира Не в белое - в траур оденутся! Ах, как пахнет сирень, Но не чувствуешь ты ничего. Как сказал президент про тебя, Ты «бездельница». Каждый мертвый - бездельник, Но это вина не его. Встаньте, девочки Токио, Мальчики Рима, Поднимайте цветы Против общего злого врага! Дуньте разом на все одуванчики мира! О, какая великая будет пурга! Собирайтесь, цветы, на войну! Покарайте карателей! За тюльпаном тюльпан, За левкоем левкой, Вырываясь от гнева Из клумб аккуратненьких, Глотки всех лицемеров Заткните корнями с землей! Ты опутай, жасмин, Миноносцев подводные лопасти! Залепляя прицелы, Ты в линзы отчаянно впейся, репей! Встаньте, лилии Ганга И нильские лотосы, И скрутите винты самолетов, Беременных смертью детей! Розы, вы не гордитесь, Когда продадут подороже! Пусть приятно касаться Девической нежной щеки, - Бензобаки Прокалывайте Бомбардировщикам! Подлинней, поострей отрастите шипы! Собирайтесь, цветы, на войну! Защитите прекрасное! Затопите шоссе и проселки, Как армии грозный поток, И в колонны людей и цветов Встань, убитая Аллисон Краузе, Как бессмертник эпохи - Протеста колючий цветок!

Its sentimental to belive this is the one he's holding some proudly and happily on the front of the Comes A Time album cover. Maybe not though - I heard he (and Stills) had a bunch of those pre-war Martins. Sounds good though - I reckon Neil would make almost any guitar sound pretty good! With Neil, it's less about technique, more about style - simply loads and loads of precious and inimitable style. A one of a kind iconoclast. Great man. and one hell of song - on electric or acoustic.

The world has always been one big Ohio here in the U.S. Neil was hoping people would learn that & apply those lessons to anytime in history. Right now people of color are being systematically killed by our government & nothing’s been done. We’ll see what happens in the Floyd case.

[@0verload]

@@elisegreen618 Uhhhh....Please look at the root cause of things. Our Government has been try to divide everyone however they can for years now. Implementing a race war is one of many strategies, along with identity politics, feminism extremism, etc. If we're all distracted fighting among eachother then the Gov and the Elite will get away with whatever they want. We really have to critically think about things and not put feelings over facts. What happened to Floyd was terrible and it's very sad that he went the he passed the way he did, but how do you figure that has killing had anything to do with his race? I see some people making gross assumptions about this without evidence to back it up. I'd be willing to hear what you have to say and or show that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was treated in any sort of unjust fashion due to his race. Btw he was complaining that he couldn't breath in the back of the car when no one was even touching him....What I think happened is that Chauvin thought George was crying wolf when he was on the ground and was saying the same thing. I still think Chauvin should have been more attentive/checked on him and was definitely negligent there, but again how is it a race issue? Lets hear it!

[@elisegreen618]

@@0verload Thank you for enlightening me. You sound very well educated & experienced in life. Were you there when George Floyd died? You must have been based on what you wrote about what happened at the scene. Were you at Kent State when 4 students were killed by the National Guard & 9 others were shot during a peaceful protest of the War in Vietnam? Do you know where Kent State is? Do you know what the song “Ohio”is about? Or when it was written? Do you know when the incident took place? Were you in Vietnam during the war as part of the US military? You sound like you have so much knowledge & experience that I assume you know & have personally experienced all of this first-hand. How old are you? How much history have you studied? Do you know about the Civil Rights Movement that took place in the 60’s? Were you a part of it? Were you a Freedom Rider? What were the Freedom Rides & when did they take place? Why were they organized? Where were they? Who was John Lewis? What was Bloody Sunday? Were you there? You have so much knowledge about American history & government, policing, & race relations as well as Civil Rights and the song “Ohio,” I’m assuming you know all about all of these things first-hand. Until then, please don’t tell me how much you know & how sure you are that you have every answer to every complex question that we’ve grappled with for years. Start reading & studying. Talk to unbiased people who have literally lived through these experiences. Maybe we have something to share with you if you really want to know. But don’t profess to know it all when you don’t & then smugly ask me to be convinced by your oversimplification of recent American history.

[@0verload]

@@elisegreen618 I'm seeing a whole lot of strawman arguments from you here, and I won't be roped into entertaining them as they just lead down a rabbit hole and get us far off course from the main point of debate. My main point is that YOU mentioned George Floyd right after talking about systemic racism. I'm simply asking you to provide evidence and or explain logically how his death/killing was racist? Otherwise if you don't believe his death/killing was racist then why did you bring him up? YOU are the one seemingly making such claims. Now you're being given a chance to back up the claims and to have others hear why you think this, so please feel free to enlighten us.
