[@kevinmclaughlin1092]

One of the very few artists who can sit on a stage all by himself with a guitar and just move your soul. Neil is truly one of a kind.

[@davidtingley9978]

I don't know if anyone can strip down their own songs as good as Neil.

[@ratdog1310]

Never seen any connection to grunge’

[@ContrarianCorner]

I've never cared for Neil Young's voice, yet he's written some of the most poignant songs ever and I can't imagine them having the same impact with someone else singing them. There is definitely a different level of feeling that he brings to the music.

[@davidtingley9978]

@@ratdog1310 ever listen to his work with Crazy Horse?

[@goldenagenut]

Decades ago at the Live Aid concert all of these rockers came out in their costumes and bs, then Neil walks out on stage by his self in sneakers, blue jeans and a plain white tshirt and his guitar and blew everyone other band away performing ' Needle and The Damage Done '. A bunch of glitter and a chunk of gold. ...ok, that's being too hard on everyone else... still, it was striking.

[@albertsmith9315]

One of my favorite lines in any song: "Doesn't mean that much to me, to mean that much to you." He doesn't care what someone thinks of him.

[@philipbarton2634]

@albertsmith93156- I read it different. I think he cares very much about what she thinks of him. He is trying to shake off getting dumped. He is telling himself "its all good, I dont need her, I'm going home to my sanctuary (his ranch- I'm rolling home to you) and I'll be fine". It's one of my favorite lines also. Rallying optimism in the face of grief. The old man made it through similar emotion, and so can I.

[@albertsmith9315]

@@philipbarton2634 I took it as he was talking to the "old man", not a girl. To me, it explains the separation of generations... young people not trying to impress the people that came before. The beauty of art is that it can be interpreted differently by those that experience it. Great line.

[@Nuerth]

Neil has always been authentic ~ he made a point over the years to refuse companies that wanted him to endorse their products ~ yet he will fully get involved in causes he believes in ~ like supporting FarmAid & the First Nations ~ he has recorded some really powerful songs like "Ohio" which to this day still haunts me or "Southern Man"

[@copperhopperwarren4788]

He & his wife (at the time) Peggy also did an annual concert in S.F. for decades to benefit the special needs school their son went to (he has Cerebral Palsy). They were called "The Bridge" concerts.

[@keymack2477]

Thank you for the heartfelt reaction Aileen! Though he has lived in the States most of his life Neil was born and raised in Canada and is genuine Canadian treasure! You must react to his song "Heart of Gold" from the same concert, and make sure you watch the intro too, as it shows a lot of his personality. Another one of his songs to get to one day is called "The Needle And The Damage Done". He has been called "The Godfather of Grunge" and I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert opening for Pearl Jam in 1994, a simply amazing concert!

[@lawrence1389u]

The needle and the damage done. My favorite from Neil.

[@michaelsharkey9105]

That does sound like a great concert. I went to a Dave Matthews concert in 2006, maybe 2007, with a "surprise opening guest", damned if it didn't turn out to be Neil Young! Much like your's, it was an awesome show.

[@georgerikken]

You talk to fast....please ...listen to his tempo of the words....

[@AdamAmbrose2112]

Saw him and Sonic Youth play in 1991. Incredible. Just saw him a few months ago. Still incredible.

[@marke8323]

@@AdamAmbrose2112 Ya, the "Smell the Horse Tour that was later released as "WELD". I saw that show at the Cincinnati Gardens, I was disappointed at the time because he didn't do any acoustic, but I'm over it now, lol! That was before the internet and after that show I stopped anticipating what the show would be and just let it happen...

[@PaulThoresen]

Favorite song by him. For some reason it has always touched me emotionally

[@kevindupre4014]

Me too. When I hear it I envision a lonely "Old Man" with a few regrets who realizes he's near the end of his life and probably wondering what he could've done differently. But that's just me. Neil Young is an amazing song writer and singer. One of the best ever just like Bob Dylan. 🎸

[@John-mi2rt]

Whole Harvest album is awesome

[@Cifer77]

This is one of the few live performances that's just as good if not better than the popularized studio recording.

[@BarrenCosmos]

Going back through all of this older music with you and anyone else who wasn't around for this sort of music really has been refreshing 😭❤

[@unholydriver4987]

It's almost like hearing it for the first time again, isn't it?

[@robinludlow2134]

Classic Neil from the early 1970s. He's 77 now with a very long, rich and creative career. I'm 71 and grew up with his music. As a fellow Canadian we're very proud of him. Listen to "Helpless" Aileen. Love your reaction videos, very interesting inter-generational appreciation.

[@marsfalcon9250]

When I was a youth, 'Heart of Gold' was my jam. I'd listen to the radio hoping for it to play, then singing along as if I wasn't causing harm to my brother's eardrums. 😁 I did not know it was Neil Young until I was much older, but it is one of my all time favorites. Thanks for another great reaction, good fortune!

[@MattArseneau22]

[@budsox5578]

Neil Young is now an old man. And hasn't changed a bit. So wise at such a young age.

[@dongange]

Now do CSNY doing “Ohio” which Neil wrote in the days after the shocking & horrific Kent State massacre.

[@TerryParsons1724]

I was in my mid teens in Canada when this song and the Harvest album came out played it on repeat. You should know there's other songs on this album I think you'd like. Neil Young is a Canadian icon for many of us who have followed his career on a parallel path. Thank you for such a wonderful reaction. I loved your words and appreciate your passion for music you are awesome. 🤟🤘

[@marke8323]

Sorry Terry, he is an American icon now, he's got a U.S. Citizenship about 7 years ago, but you shared with us so we can do the same, I've seen him literally a dozen times!

[@TerryParsons1724]

@@marke8323 Yes I knew that and as your CBB ( cross boarder buddies ) we have no problem sharing with you especially when it comes to music. I'm impressed you saw him so many times that's very cool. Cheers

[@DavidAntrobus]

@@marke8323 You don't generally relinquish your original citizenship when you gain a new one. I know this because I'm dual UK and Canadian. Neil is still very Canadian, not only because of his roots and where he was raised, but also in the elements and content and perspective of the songs he writes: see "Ambulance Blues" and "Helpless," just for two examples. Neil is still thought of as a Canadian artist by most music fans, I think. I mean, he's even associated with plaid flannel shirts, the style of loggers everywhere. 😉

[@Sp33gan]

A fellow Canadian, Neil Young has been a musical chameleon for the length of his long career. His early work as a member of Buffalo Springfield (Mr. Soul or Broken Arrow) as well as almost everything the band did. Next, he joined up with Crosby, Stills and Nash. Ohio is a cry of anguish as well as an angry call for change, among so many other great songs from them. His solo career has been so many different styles and always interesting, poignant and enjoyable. Old Man, Harvest, Heart Of Gold, Like A Hurricane, Down By The River, Cinnamon Girl, Harvest Moon, Long May You Run, Rockin' In The Free World, The Needle And The Damage Done, and so many more.

[@lookingatsunsets636]

The imagery in "Powderfinger" always gets me and the guitar playing in "Like a Hurricane" is insanely good. Neil's a legend.

[@regularsizeruss3874]

...and then there's "Trans"!

[@ostlandr]

"Down by the river" is a personal favorite.

[@Alfaqwad]

There is absolutely emotion in guitar playing! And it's fascinating to hear a player's personality come through in their music

[@JDogg1971]

It’s crazy how when he’s done, you realize it was just him and his guitar. He is a master of both instruments. Great reaction!

[@JohnRotonto-ql9ds]

Neil Young is one of Canada's gems. Look at his song book gorgeous, there's lots of treasures. Neil Young is one of the best singer songwriters of his and any generation! 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋🦊🦊🦊🦊🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@jwichman9]

Thank you Canada!

[@zachd.8725]

Good fishin' music right here. Blue gills love it.

[@WorldSpectator705]

I agree Aileen, the guitar part is profound and sophisticated, and says as much as the vocal. Beautiful guitar work, wonderful song. Neil's voice in this performance sounds about as good as I've ever heard it as well.. Very clear and nice tone.

[@user-hn4kq2px4y]

Niel is considered the "Godfather of Grunge" which is the most accurate description in the evolution of music,.. in my opinion 😅🌀

[@marsfalcon9250]

That's cool, I never thought about it, but it does establish many of the core elements of that later genre. Thanks for that data!

[@Murder_34]

wow, totally true...after seeing this i put two and two together...this is exactly like Kurt during their unplugged all those years later...so awesome!!! gives me a new appreciation for Neil

[@TravisKershaw]

Neil Young is not grunge. Dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. Folk music is the best description

[@hatch7482]

Wow. Thanks for that. I’ll never hear him again without that thought popping into my head.

[@jovanisanfemio7641]

Maybe, but he's so much more than that! Classic rocker, amazing musician, protest artist and antagonist, folk singer and on anad on !!!

[@bonand007]

What a great reaction! You are perfect at reviewing music, as you really feel it. Not all do. Thanks for another great review Aileen. 👌

[@joshb23]

Yes, yes, yes! He's truly a wizard of songwriting, arrangement and delivery. His dynamics, lyrics, singing and playing style are SO powerful, it's incredible what he can do with only an acoustic guitar. Keep going with Neil, he has so much more for you to discover! Beautiful video!!

[@myownchannel247]

Heart of Gold from this same show is somehow even better, he sings, plays guitar, harmonica while keeping time with his foot 🦶 don’t miss it

[@brianferris8668]

The one song he hated.

[@charlesrubio7650]

50 PLUS YEARS listening to Neil... he like Bob Dylan very gifted musicians, they're legends! Like the Beatles their music will be relevant for decades to come. So much music of his to explore! You are in for an experience of great rock n roll music, both acoustic and electric! You know, talking about electric, just for grins, the thing is there's so many, but nevertheless, if you like to get an idea of his electric side, search on KZbin for Cinnamon Girl. There's several, both acoustic and electric. Look for the electric version titled "Neil You & Crazy Horse - Cinnamon Girl (live 1991in real HD) Fun rock n roll video to watch! As a suggestion, Rolling Stone had a special edition of Neil couple of years ago. His life, and their take of his top 100 songs. They missed about 17, that I contacted them about them in no uncertain terms.... lol! Should have been at least his top 125! Since you asked, hopefully you can find the edition from Rolling Stone, there you'll find a treasure trove of of songs. However like I said there's at least 17 I came up with that should have made the list. Nice reaction Aileen. I see you covered Old Man just couple of days ago and first time seeing your channel... I subscribed because of your reaction to NY! Good job girlfriend! Peace, Love & Groovy Tunes!

[@gianlucad8003]

That's as real and genuine as it gets.

[@RedPillLife1966]

"Heart of Gold" from this recording is also pretty cool. Guitar, Singing and Harmonica.

[@michaelsharkey9105]

Neil Young has a vast and awesome library of songs. One of my generations true poet's. Some of my favorites - 'Harvest Moon', 'Like a Hurricane', 'The Needle and the Damage Done', & 'Long may you run'. Congratulations! Your at the beginning of being introduced to some frickin' amazing music Enjoy! 👍

[@marklerner8963]

Thank you for your heartfelt comments Aileen....the more I listen to this one, the more I think it's the greatest solo acoustic performance EVER! Utterly amazing. You can't believe that one person with an acoustic guitar can do that.

[@DJDOGG31]

This performance and this song embodies a singer/songwriter at their craft. So glad you enjoyed that. Other Neil songs…”Needle and the Damage done”, “Southern Man” & “Heart of Gold”.

[@davidcopson5800]

Good choices.

[@michaelheller8841]

All fantastic songs, Neil can really tell you a story while you are getting into his songs.

[@Hohum37]

Neil Young sings straight into your soul.

[@kevinlundgren1169]

Neil Young has been a favorite for many years . Just wait until you hear My My Hey Hey , but then you'll have to hear Hey Hey , My My !!

[@j0hnn13K]

Neil is one of the very best (imho), he was a very successful folk singer who scored hit after hit with his wordsmith abilities and acoustic guitar and harmonica skills. And then he broke the biggest rule in folk music, "thou shall not use electrical amplified guitars", and he introduced electric guitar and rock into his musical catalog. This could've killed his career, if he wasn't Neil Young.. because, the man is a musical genius and gave us countless of amazing songs. A few to keep in mind : "Heart of gold", "Needle and the damage done", "Rocking in the free world", "Harvest moon", "Southern man" (which prompted a reply from Lynyrd Skynyrd with the song "Sweet home Alabama"), "Ohio", "Like a hurricane", and "Powderfinger" are all songs you should check out at some time, you'll love them and hear all "shades of Neil" in that selection.

[@chriswheeler151]

It makes perfect sense!!

[@astroteech]

Pure Neil Young greatness! I'm 66 years old and have been a fan of Neil Young since his days as a member of "Buffalo Springfield" along with Stephen Stills, both future members of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. Look up the story behind this song. It's such a human experience.

[@zeunie]

Aileen, it's so remarkable to watch you listen to & watch these performances. It's clearly evident that you experience these gems with open ears, open mind & an open soul, allowing the music, the lyrics and the artist(s)' expression to be absorbed into yourself and then quite passionately & accurately emitted to your viewers through your vocabulary & emotions. I never tire of watching your videos. We all treasure you immensely and you brighten our days without fail.

[@clifton8929]

You would love Neil's song "Cinnamon Girl" - it's about a beautiful girl who looks like a Bright Angel like you. Also 'Only Love Can Break Your Heart", "Cortez The Killer", and "Harvest Moon".

[@djknox2]

Buy the DVD Live at Massey Hall. What a show and recording. Neil is truly one of the greats.

[@nauseantrock532]

Awesome makes me cry

[@Suleclo]

Needle and the Damage Done, and Don't Let it Bring You Down are two of my favorites. Neil is absolutely great. I got to see him in concert in 2019.

[@jamesguest4741]

He has a beautiful voice as well as playing the guitar so well.

[@MauricioDelaRosa-ue9ut]

Aileen you nailed this reaction.

[@bloppysloppy4057]

There are many different "Neil Young's" as his career has had many facets and dipped his toes in many genres and worn many hats literally and figuratively, but the two main "Neil's" are the folky Neil (as seen here) and the hard-rocking guitar-distorted Neil with his band Crazy Horse which earned him the title of the "Godfather of Grunge". All facets of his career are worth checking out.

[@nauseantrock532]

I love the guitar acoustic mastery here this is sick

[@RandallMorris222]

My favorite Neil Young song is "Harvest Moon." It's the story of long-time lovers growing old together. It's pretty much the story of my wife and I, so it means a lot to us. I recommend it.

[@douglassmith3825]

You should check out Like a Hurricane by Neil Young! Very powerful love song!

[@MrPolleyr]

Do more Neil. Love it. You really got the song.😍🇨🇦👍

[@hitchhikemike1]

Thanx! Beautiful and touching reaction to a beautiful touching song!

[@ATAH69]

Hi Aileen, Nice reaction & Welcome to Mr. Young.. There's lot's of his catalog that I think you'll enjoy. On a side note, Neil was also part of a great 60's 70's band Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young In which they also had a lot of great tunes... Fairly new to your channel but, Really enjoying your reactions, While also seeing you expand your horizons in the music field.. Not to sure if this is ok to do/ask here But, If possible I'd like to suggest a band & a couple of their song's And maybe it will also be something new for you as well.. The Band Is - The Pretty Reckless - Their Lead Singer Is Cindy Lou Who From The Grinch W/Jim Carrey 1st Song Is Called 25 - Please do the official music video You'll Be Pleasantly Surprised... 2nd Song Is Called - Going To Hell - Studio Version or Official Music Video Work Quite Different From Their Song 25.. If You Take Me Up On My Suggestion's Please Do 25 First As It Will Give You A Good Perspective Of Taylor's Voice The Song Going To Hell Is A Whole Different Perspective & Sound Thinking You'll Enjoy Both & You Just Might Like To Venture Deeper Into Them Thank You So Much & I'm Sorry For The Short Novel... My Bad! Cheers From Western Canada

[@kevincosta9228]

Neil wore a number of musical hats. This is acoustic Neil. But, the man was also an early pioneer of electric guitar distortion; dirty, dirty, dirty. They call him "The Godfather of Grunge", because he was doing grunge 10-15 years before it was a thing. At one point he paired up with Pearl Jam and they did concerts together. Eddie Vedder calls him "Uncle Neil". You should check out one of those live videos. Pearl jam will be doing a Neil song, taking it up in intensity, Neil walks on stage, the crowd explodes, then, BAM the intensity ratchets up to 10. Try Pearl Jam with Neil Young, Rockin' in the Free World, Toronto 2011

[@jeffreymeyer4848]

Such an honest reaction, wonderful to watch. It means a lot to see this mean so much to you.

[@dalemcmillan7231]

Brilliant Neil Young ❤ 🇨🇦 l've seen him several times live here in Canada.

Cinnamon Girl is another side of Neils music talent..🎸🎶☮️

[@danfrederick9389]

In 1966 Neil Young, Stephen Stills, Richie Furay formed a band called Buffalo Springfield and out of that band came Crosby, Stills and Nash, later on Neil joined the group. Richie Furay started a band called Poco and The Bass player Randy Meisner became a founding member of The Eagles. Anyway Neil is talented writer and guitar/ singer, I have followed him all that time. You should try Poco's Spellbound, Heart of the Night and Call it Love. There are more Poco songs like Rose of Cimarron that are really good.

[@michaelparsons5299]

LOL Aileen. Wait until you are 57. 24 still seems like yesterday. Love your reactions. They are so full of passion!

[@robinludlow2134]

Would also suggest "Cinnamon Girl" and "Down By the River" and "Long May You Run." So many great tunes from Neil - songwriter, poet, musician, singer.

[@Miceliism]

"the intensity" Us music folks call that dynamics! I really enjoy your reactions. You really give intelligent commentary. And you can tell when you genuinely dig it. ❤

[@wreckingKREW1]

One of the deepest rabbit holes there is,period. And probably THE most diverse artist,stylistically,in modern music history. Put it this way,there's another side,one of many actually,to Neil's music that earned him the moniker "The Godfather of Grunge". And pushing 80 now,he's still pumping out great music. Right up there with the greatest songwriters of all-time. I'll suggest anything off his Everybody Knows This is Nowhere album from 1969,a couple years before this video. It's his first album with Crazy Horse,and Neil Young and Crazy Horse could be an entire rabbit hole in and of itself. Try out Cinnamon Girl,Down By The River,the title track of Cowgirl In The Sand. LOVE your reactions.

[@rafaelorantes7185]

Heart Of Gold, from the same concert is also a great song by him!

[@timothyslaughter476]

Old Man and Heart of Gold are worth the price of admission alone for Neil Young. He told a story about when he first played this solo work for his band members in csny he took them to a lake on property he owned and they went out in a little boat and he had amps set up on both sides of the lake and he played these songs in full lake stereo...lol. Obviously, they were impressed.

[@IAMCAVE]

Neil is among dozens of artists from the era who played acoustic guitar and wrote/sang songs. Some made it big, most didn’t.

[@greeneyedpixie2]

Alieen, I was lucky enough to take my Dad to the Sydney Big Day Out 2011? we listened to this song. I'll take it to the grave with me as one of the most 'connecting moments' we've had. Seeing one of my Dads' hero's and what a song. check out' Heart of Gold'!

Great Reaction! He has so many good songs. "Ohio, Heart of Gold, Needle and the damage Done". You are so spot on young lady✌️

[@rogerdaly6326]

Oh Aileen the Neil Young rabbit hole runs so deep. His career is a lengthy one starting wirh Buffalo Springfield then joining Crosby , Stills & Nash to having his own band with Crazy Horse and solo material like this. Style wise he covers a lot of ground from acoustic ballads to fuzzed out rockers. Well worth the deep dive. Check out the song Harvest Moon , i think you'll enjoy that one.

I love all of your genuinely emotional reactions. Helps me feel music again that I’ve gotten used to, and listened to so many times, the emotion has faded. You help renew the emotional reaction and attachment to this music (especially Pink Floyd!). Oh and you are absolutely gorgeous.

[@rogerbianchini2982]

Aileen, Explore Neil's career, not only as a solo artist, but with The Buffalo Springfield (with Stephen Stills, Richie Furay & fellow Canadians Bruce Palmer and Dewey Martin), and Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young -- TREASURES GALORE EVERYWHERE -- Seeing The Buffalo Springfield live when I was in college around 1968 was something I'll never forget -- Neil & Stills were playing dueling lead guitars in a song and jumping up & down face to face like little kids in a backyard competition ..... "Expecting to Fly" from them, "Mr. Soul", etc, etc ..... & of course "Ohio" from CSN&Y about the Kent State university student slayings by the National Guard during an anti-Vietnam war protest -- Neil's career, PHEW -- Truly one of the GREATS

My goodness. Wonderful reaction to a beautiful song. This song came out when I was 14. I'm 65 now and it still makes me smile as I remember my youth, the "old men" I worked with and my life now with my ever growing family, children, and grandchildren. Perhaps there is a pang of jealousy that I'm no longer that young man, but it quickly goes away when I reflect on everything that has come to me in my life. Thank you, yet again for sharing your reactions to what, art least to me, weas some of the greatest music ever made.

Aileen Neil Young has and his backup band jammed this song.

Neil was an old soul. A deep dark well at a young age. Now that's he's old, he's settled, but back in the day he was a true artist. Btw, he still lives on the same ranch.

One of my all time favorites
