[@mdemma60]

Dedicated to my cousin's wife who passed away from pancreatic cancer yesterday during COVID. God Help our family as we all grieve #alonetogether .

[@lostwoodart3301]

I'm sorry for your loss, prayers to you and your family.

[@tracyward9899]

So sorry for your loss - it is a beautiful tribute. My guitar teacher was a Neil Diamond tribute act played it and sang it to me. I broke down sobbing in his shop and did not care. The words and the tune are soulful.

I fell head over heels in love with Neil diamond at the age of 12 years old. I understood where he was coming from in his music and I wrote him a letter back in 1976. I took a chance and posted it to a fan club and 2 months later I got a personal autographed photo and letter back from him. Telling me how he started out with the song " I'm a believer". That's when I sold my piano for a guitar and taught myself to play guitar in 6 weeks. I sent him a demo home recording tape, singing I'm a believer with my brother backing vocals with me. 3+ months later I received an album that was autographed again by Neil diamond. The album was " Hot August night" 1972. I was over the moon about it. Neil and I kept up our contact for many years after that. Once a year we would send each other voice recordings on tape telling each other what happened through out the year. However as life changed my contact with Neil grew less and less. But I will never forget him nor his music. Today I am 60 years old and now my children who are between 37, 35 and 27. Listen to that same Hot August night I kept for all these years. ❤

Isn't that wonderful. I had a penpal relnship with a celebrity, too, who sent me gifts. It was lovely and very encouraging to me as an artist. Unfortunately, he passed away before we could meet. We were already making plans to do so. That's a beautiful story about Neil.

[@michaelkoltonow3828]

This song was deeply felt by the composer. And it fused with the writers' genius. It is a rarity. Timeless

[@RichardSparks1970]

That composer was Neil himself. He was a staff writer along with the likes of Carole King, and like her, started to sing his own songs. This is a beautiful song that makes me cry every time I hear it. Thanks to the uploader

[@julieburris5443]

I was in high school when this song hit the air waves. I fell in love with it then, I am still in love with it today. I will soon be 65. It is timeless and beautiful, Mr. Diamond has touched many hearts thru his music. Amazing!

This is too one of my #1 favorites of Neil Diamond. One of the best times traveling with my late wife of 28 years. Music is a powerful way of expressing our emotions. And this one became our song together. I lost her in 2013. Now 6 years later I still listen to this masterpiece when I think I’m strong and can make it through to the end but I find myself rocked to my knees in pain and tears wanting those times when we both listen to it together. She was definitely my soulmate. My best friend. I do find some peace and tranquility when I listen to Play Me even though it’s tough Our only son who is now 17 remembers his mother’s love of this song and shares the same appreciation for great artists like Neil Diamond has master the acoustic guitar version of this great masterpiece. Who I am so thankful to God Almighty for blessing me with such a great son who I now live for each day. God bless you Neil Diamond. Your a fantastic artist

When you look at Neil's body of work. The fact he wrote the songs. That iconic voice. His performances live. Just the brilliance of his songs. Legendary songs. He HAS to be considered one of the top 3 or 4 artists ever. Has to be.
