Truly a sad day in American history and Neil captured it so perfectly
Hi Neil! ✌ ❤ to everyone reading this!
Thanks for the soundtrack of my life, Neil...peace and love!
Hey Neil, it's Lary here.. I'm the blonde haired guy that sat in between you and Danny at LaCave in Cleve. for those two shows in '69.. That was an Incredible night for both of us.. I was at Kent State that Horrific day and I wanted to tell you personally how much 'Ohio' has meant to Everyone who was part of that life -changing insanity ! There is little I can say except Thank you.. It's as Vital 50 years later as it was at the time...
Love to you both.. Lary

thinking about this in 2024. god protect our righteous youth. free palestine
🇵🇸 🙏🏽🇵🇸🥲
No to Palestine. Israelis are God's chosen people. Long live Israel!
One of the most important songs of our age. I can feel my blood heating up as I listen. I'm 67yrs old now and will never forget. Thank you Neil.
This song tells us freedom and justice are never cheap !
Ditto 😢 I’m with you. How can there be 4?!
We welcomed those young men who didn't believe in such a useless war. In 1968, Canadian border guards stopped asking American visitors about their draft cards, a policy that Pierre Trudeau said, "the status of being a draft-dodger doesn't enter at all into our immigration policy".
This year, a man was arrested at a US border and jailed for evading the draft..from 55 years ago.
❤ Yes It Was
Absoutely 😢✌️❤️🌼
My aunt was Sandra Scheuer she died that day. I was two when it happened. I never got to meet her. But through family I have learned a lot about her and the others killed that day
Thank you for sharing her memory with us. We will not forget her.
6/20 Rubber Bullets and Teargas here in Atlanta. Rioters, Protestors, all hell breaking loose. Old man(white), mgr. Underground Atlanta, beat to a bloody pulp, left for dead on the street. Because BLM.
I'm sorry for your families loss and emptiness her death left behind. You must know that they did not die in vain. Their deaths woke the social conscious of a nation and how protests were dealt with, even to this day.
May your aunt’s memory continue to endure as a blessing.
😔🙏💔💔💔💔😢
Thank you Neil. I'm almost 70 & just hearing this song begin brings tears to my heart & soul. 🌺
@@officialneilyoung6428 -- Yeah, not buying it. You've had this channel since last month. The other guy, 16 years. I don't know what you're up to. But it's akin to stealing. Is your life so sad that you have to be a poser to get respect? Respect that was EARNED by Neil, not by you. Bugger off.
Me too mate.
I'm almost 70 too, and Neil is still an a$$. (:
@@NCLUSA --Dont know but I've heard he can be difficult. I was referring to his music, this song in particular. Remembering the horror of that day, then later hearing this song.
im 14 and love neil young
At this stage in Neil’s career, he was untouchable. Every song he wrote was sublime
Still untouchable one of the greats ❤
Graham Nash said Neil went into the woods and wrote this song in one hour. CSN assembled to record it within days - It was out in the world within weeks. Neil is one of our generation's greatest poets. This song resonates as powerfully today as when it was written in 1970.
Yes, I have heard same story. This song came like a lightning strike.
But is still Ohio's biggest shamings thanks to mr. Young.
Southern man was frustated and angry song.
This was just hopeless and frustated moment that lives -forever. Longer than I.
I think the story goes Neil and Crosby maybe were in San Francisco at a park. saw the news paper called la and got stills and crew into the studio in la . they came down and it was done
I love the raw emotion in the recording. Harmonies were not perfect, showing the intensity of the emotions over such an overwhelming event.
Tysm for this info. Fr.
Neil Young wrote this song alone.
One can't simply listen to just one Neil Young song...
Mark and one never stops listening
Never will when ever Neil young is playing it's on shuffle
Yep I'm on my umpteenth video it started with OLD MAN
(that being said I've loved the guy since I was a kid and heard his cuts in in the... mid-90's?) now I'm the OLD MAN
100% true
One of the most heart-wrenching songs ever written. Brings tears to my eyes. Thank you, Neil Young, for not letting us forget. May God help us all!
Neil, this song still gives me chills. I am 76.
Gives me chills and I’m 35
Me too: between those ages.
krplus.net/bidio/ZdOLon-fdn7WmKgsi=qaioMi7Ta7hMGmyF This is about flight 93, the final words..
I'm 55 and live near KSU. I walk near the memorial every time! And always ring the victory bell in memory of that day
I was on campus in my Mother's womb on May 4th, 1970. She was an art student at Kent State University in Ohio walking between classes when the National Guard showered the students with bullets. Although in utero, that day left a profound and everlasting impression on my soul. ✌️
With this song, Neil captured not only a distressing moment in time but a piece of American history. He channeled all of the anguish, pain, confusion, rage & horror of that moment into the music & lyrics of "Ohio". So that the lives taken that day & the wrongs committed would not be forgotten. So that we remember Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Scheuer and William Schroeder.
We are all thankful to Neil for this song. 🙏
Several years ago on May 4th, my Mom & I saw Neil perform at Detroit's Fox Theatre and he played "Ohio" for us. 😍
We Love You Neil Young! ❤ 🎶
So glad Neil is playing this live on his current tour. This is the most important song he’s ever written. People may debate which song is his best-but OHIO is his most important. Neil, your voice is so important. Please keep touring as long as you can.
Neil always put his heart and soul into his music !
A timeless anthem.....and you know what's so sad? 50 years later things seems worse in this country. We have not evolved. Thank you Mr. Young for being a voice in the dark...one that will speak to us forever and beyond. Your music reaches down inside and grabs the soul by the throat.
Love ya brother. We must unit again.
Now he is calling for the censorship of Joe Rogan - why? Because he goes against the MSM/Government/Big Pharma narrative. Amazing.
You have one chance to grow old and show wisdom, respect, and show others the way far from greed and self interest. You missed it Young. Even worse, the fact that Crosby, Stills and Nash followed the same path. Tragic to me. Here's to the gold old days. krplus.net/bidio/ZquwiZ2FiK2RlIo

same here!
@Maddolis @scaa86 Thank you for the replies, guys. It's been 11 years since I left the original comment, but it's still true.
The most amazing part is that he still plays like this in his old age. No fancy equipment, no crew, just a guitar and a mic. Balls out. Cards on the fucking table. Inspirational.
Beautiful song about a ghastly, horrific event. Let us never forget.
I kinda think it's been forgotten about in the last 30 years or so. It may be time for another revolution.
@billyfromtheusa yep, I subscribe to Liberty Hangout myself.

Who's still listening and remembering in 2021?
And who is still here listening in 2024, April 26th to be precise. Watching our country and college campuses going through the same. National Guard has not been called out yet, but there are police on almost every campus where our students are protesting. Lord, please protect our students who are protesting against genocide. Protect the hostages, Palestinians and Israelis. So much heartache, so much hatred. 😢🙏🏽🇵🇸
And now this song is echoing throughout america
@matt stockton yeah, down with those anti fascists. What have anti fascists ever done for us except fight all those wars against malevolent fascists??? Get in a hole and hide from 5G
matt stockton no, they fought fascism. You are a fascist. We’re done.
@@klausmaus1886 :) good 1 :)
@matt stockton Our POTUS has police shooting our own people. This never happened in our country's history.We no longer live in a democracy. Get your head out of you know where.
@matt stockton You really don't get it do you hahaha.
It's hard to believe that 52 years have passed since the day of the shootings at Kent State University. It was so horrifying. Around the country, we, the youth of America mourned for those students who were shot. Thank you Neil, for this song, in remembrance of the tragedy.
The parents of the students should have told them, not to throw rocks at people with guns.
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young was at its finest when stripped down to just Neil and his guitar.
agreed
fuckin aye bro
Yes
My cousin was a student there, and he was there that day. My family was so terrified as we didn’t hear from him and didn’t know what was happening. That was one of the worst days for the students and all the families. Neil Young was..and still is..able to express what we are feeling.
Hello sandy
He did this at a Cow Palace show in the 80s and the audience responded with a five minute standing ovation.
I was a grad student at Ohio State and learned of Kent State amidst the tear gas and chaos caused by Jim Rhodes, Ohio's "governor". Ohio's still as screwed up as ever. "Ohio" is the saddest song I know.
It happened 50 years ago today, I remember it like yesterday :(
I carry a Bluetooth speaker and stream an Internet radio service via my cell phone while at work. This last week, this exact performance came on of this song. I'm an RN and was working with a tech in her early 20's. I commented something about loving Neil Young, and she said: " That's a man singing?!!" I told her back in the day he was a very sexy long haired man, and also educated all about the Kent State event, of which she'd never heard. Thanks, Neil for creating this song. It has ensured that one American travesty/tragedy hasn't been forgotten in moments like those, conversations are open to share our near-forgotten history with the younger generations.
fifty years have come and gone....Graham Nash said it best...teach your children about this massacre, don't let history repeat itself....
@xirsamoht x wtf no change honestly don't want to argue with someone who has good taste in music but this is not like the 60s dudd
Face Man.......and the cycle continues ;(
Portland
I just love Neil Young, the chorus in Ohio, is just mind-blowing, I shed a tear for the ones that died 😢, Neil is a master songwriter and performer, thanks Mr Young xx
Being born in 1980, I am deeply sorry that I missed this era in music and life. The 1960's and 70's had to be utterly incredible.
I was born in 1950. Living in Corpus Christi Tx at that time, but watched it all on tv. I watched in horror. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I never will forget this!
Music you can grab from the past. Horrors we need to LEARN from & see everyone else does.
Amazing , the power of music and the time capsule of KRplus!
Still as inspiring as it was, this is dec. 30,2023,, I'm now 72 hearing this again brings back memories 😢
I was at this concert :)
It says "1971", so that would be impossible.
Haha you're kidding right? I guess Neil Young can't possibly be alive then!
I know your comment is 3 yrs old and all but I'm too stunned by the level of stupidity of it
I was 17 so I missed it
@@BayviewFinch Wadiyatalkinabeet
Neil is a national treasure. I love you Neil Young
Reminds me of when I was a teenager after losing my entire family and having no one.
Although I'm a Canadian I remember the day the students were shot dead and the day this song came out. We all rushed to the music store to buy the 45. You are old if you know what a 45 is.
Wandering the streets looking for my next meal or a warm place to lay my head. Worked hard and had children and became a multi millionaire but always stayed grounded.
This song and Neil Young inspired me so much.
I'm and old man now and my children and my generation of music keeps me going.
This is when real music was made!
Thank you for this Powerful & wonderful video and amazing song....
Long live Mr. Neil Young...
You're also old if you know what an 8-track tape is.
@@daleemrick9816 Soo true bro!
Heck, I remember when the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup 54 years ago in 1967 & Neil Young was only 22 yrs old. A goalie (Jacques Plante) invented the goalie mask a few years before I came along. There was No such thing as FM Rock Music radio stations and only AM for tunes. Child fare on the transit system was 10 Cents and parents let their children play at the park till 11 PM.
Now I can unlock the doors to my home when I'm on the other side of the earth on vacation.
All the best to you .
Cheers bro!
I was at Kent State for the riots. I have NEVER seen a 'Documentary' which accurately gave a full account of the riots and the 'back story'! THIS SONG, ''OHIO'' IS AS ACCURATE A PORTRAIT OF THE SHOOTINGS AS YOU WILL FIND!!! A GREAT SONG FOR HISTORY!!!
I was there in Kent the day the national guards came in and was evacuated from school in Kent. Lived there most all of my life. There was a memorial area where the 4 were shot a few years after, when I was about 16 or 17 and the school wanted to move the memorial so they could build a new building in that area. We went to protest that, and hundreds of students and young people showed up. They had police come and they shot us with tear gas to disburse us. I will never forget the times back then and when I listed to this song, or any Joe Walsh band brings me back to these days. Joe lived just a few streets from me in Brimfield and he would play at most bars throughout Kent. Those we the days!!!
songs really ment something in those times they really hit home
+ste123456754 In my opinion music is best when it is making a statement. Tony Robson
This song means so much to me growing up in Ohio and being around for this event…so painful. Thank you, Neil.
In my opinion, this is one of the most powerful live performance Neil has ever done. It gives me goosebumps. Simply stunning.
Yes, Neil refused that this would come his next album instead of Harvest which is 50% overproduced. I cannot even listen Man needs a Maid and two others...
Ok, Out Of the Weekend is a masterpiece.
I have this Archive no2CD and this is just brilliant solo concert. Old man and all the rest (I think) songs for the first time live. The sound is intime and powerful.
That "Take photos when everybody's clapping." is so humane statement there.
50 years ago today; a defining moment of my youth
The tragedy happened the day after my dad died. I was 14.
How can you not listen to that line, "What if you knew her, found her dead on the ground" and not feel sad and angry?
@Dave Hillier. So sorry for the loss of your dad, especially with both tragedies a day apart. 14 can be a tough time all on its own.
I feel as you do about that line in the song. It always hits the target and chokes most of us up as many of his lyrics do. So glad that Neil gave us all this song and a way to remember and to grieve.
I was almost 20, going to college and working as a copy boy at the local newspaper.
I pulled stories off the wire machines as well as pictures that came in.
I was about to get off that night when the stories and horrific pictures (they sent all they had, even very graphic ones) came on.
I told one of the guys in the press room what had happened and he said “good, I wish they had shot more of them.”
That was a microcosm of the generational divide at the time. Although not between all people, of course.
I was so mad and upset I just dumped the stories and pictures off on the National desk and left.
This song is one of Neil Young's best songs in my mind. Who doesn't love his music? He is a great storyteller and he does it perfectly through his music and soul. This song is my favorite because in the the song he is referring to the massacre at Kent State during the 70's. And he gives you insight on what really happened. For example, the line, "Soldiers are cutting us down," paints a perfect picture of this shocking massacre. Perfect song, could not be better, LOVE IT!
May 4, 1970...
Ten days later, this song was being listened to by all.
WHAT IF YOU KNEW HER??? Soldiers cutting us down....
May 4, 1970. Never forget.
Notice how respectful and quiet the audience is .
Not one of but THE best version of this song I've heard. Go Neil.
Lawrence Staton Its amazing the whole live album is incredible.
The version on CSN&Y "Four Way Street" is also awesome.........I agree that this is the best I've heard of him performing it alone.
Absolutely. If this performance doesn't make you cry, then you were not in line when the gods were passing out souls.
The CSNY version is a masterpiece. That is why he had Crosby book studio time for a group recording. Neil sounds okay but can't hit the high notes on the chorus like CSN can. Still it is Neil at his creative peak.
The best ever
May 4th 1970, a day that lives in infamy - I was so young back then and I was there to bear witness - NEVER FORGET!
NEIL PROB THE BEST SINGER/SONGWRITER OF OUR TIME!!!!❤
Thank you for writing this song, Neil. Music is my religion and I felt comfort in that fact that you put down what we experienced into music. There's pictures of us all over the internet, you can see it at 0:16 in "The Day the '60s Died." Bill is a tall guy with kind of bushy hair wearing a black leather jacket. I'm right in front of him taking a drag off my cigarette and I'm wearing a purple fringe suede jacket. In the very front, between a girl and a guy in a gas mask, is our buddy Todd. He's giving the National Guard the finger. He made the cover of Look magazine with a picture of him throwing a tear gas cannister back at the NG. This was before they opened fire on us. That morning they rang the liberty bell and there was a ceremonial burying of the US Constitution because Nixon was trampling all over it. A few hours later, a general riding in an open air jeep zig-zagged back and forth across the commons saying , "Return to your domiciles immediately" over a scratchy megaphone. They had tanks and halftracks and guns and we wanted THEM off campus immediately. We were really mad. Nixon had won the election by promising to get us out of Vietnam and then he makes a speech saying we were invading (he said it was an "incursion") Cambodia and widening the war! So that's what kicked the protests off to begin with. We just sat down in the middle of Route 534, a major road, stopping traffic in both directions. They sent a big helicopter to hover right over top of us and there was a lot of heavy prop wash. The night before quite a few store windows were smashed downtown (which I tried to stop) and somebody set fire to the hated wooden ROTC building the next night right off the commons. I heard they trained future officers for Vietnam there and that they were biological warfare experts. So after the general the NG just started slowly marching across the commons. We were on the other side yelling for them to get off campus. As they got closer we started backing up the little hill behind the commons and the liberty bell. I saw a few people throwing rocks when the NG got closer to us. None of us, not even in our wildest imagination, ever thought the NG would shoot at us with their guns. Some people said their guns weren't even loaded. It was common back then to see the NG all the time at things like labor strikes and there was never any shooting. We were exercising our 1st Amendment right to protest. My dorm was at the top of the hill so when we backed up there I ducked in the entryway. Other people started down the hill on the other side. The NG passed where I was and followed the crowd and then opened fire. I saw people hitting the ground. At first we didn't realize what had just happened. Then we were in total shock and people were trying to help the ones who were hit. You could smell the gunpowder in the air. At the same time the Guard was retreating slowly in disarray. We started following them as they backed off until we all just sat down next to the liberty bell in defiance. Most of us were ready to die if that's what it took. That was when the professor came out and started telling us we had to leave or they were going to slaughter us. He was crying and very compelling. So we got up and started walking away. The rest is in the history books. My roommate's girlfriend, Allison Krause, was one of the people killed. None of the NG was ever indicted for the killings but 25 students were indicted. My Dad and I had discussed what we were going to do if I was indicted and we pretty much agreed that I would sneak into Canada and try to keep a low profile. My Dad was a former FBI agent and I'm sure there were times when he was totally baffled by my reasons for being a part of a counter-culture movement. But he supported and loved me no matter what I did. I've lived in northern California near the redwoods and Mt. Shasta for the last 40 years and Bill lives in the beautiful Atlanta, Georgia area, so we decided to meet up at Kent on the 50th anniversary. They've got a memorial there now where you can learn about what happened, why, and what we can do in the future to prevent it from happening again. There is a plaque from the National Registry of Historic Places marking the event. The exact spots where people were killed in the parking lot are outlined in black paint. Immediately after the killings about a hundred and some colleges shut down across the country, the students at Jackson State were killed and about a million people showed up in Washington, DC, and another million in NYC to continue the struggle. After that I left Ohio and moved to the desert in Arizona where I stayed for the next 7 years. Nixon finally ended the war in Vietnam. What happened on May 4th, 1970 has had a profound effect on my life. Like Jimi Hendrix said, "When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will be at peace."
thank you for writing
Hi thanks ❤ Merry Xmas and a happy new. 😊
How have you been?
Thank you for sharing, I'm younger than you but old enough to remember the fear & hopes of the 60s. What is your opinion on today's news. The militarization of the police, the assault on the rights of citizens & assault on the first amendment. Do you think there is enough input by musicians like the protest songs of the 60s? Thank you
Thank you so much for writing that John. It gave me a good cry which I needed. It sounds like you have a great father and that but about the professor is very moving. I'll definitely visit the memorial one day and hopefully keep this song going live. Thank you.
Neil we need you and your friends now almost more than ever
Beatlesfan Since83 no we really don’t
Never forget . Neil
Young is part of our history

Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young...especially Neil Young...were at the fore front of the "movement" back in the late 60's and early 70's. Period. End of story. They sang tunes that defined, mirrored and resonated with our heart and soul...and attitudes...(for those of us who were in our late teens/early 20s back then and especially those of us in college). Not just anti-war/anti-Vietnam themes. But life itself. To this day, I get spell bound and mesmerized whenever I hear a song from them... The rifts, the voices, the lyrics, the beat and rhythms -- pure "movement" and "awareness" and mobilization stuff. :-) Little did we know back then...what transformation and cultural 'wars' were yet to come. Need them all especially today. Thank you Neil!!
I wholly agree with you about this song, but what other CSNY songs from 69/70 had any political message?
I got the CD album of so far by Crosby and Still and Nash and young
Im 65 vietnam vet neil well done vietnam never mentioned but the song is right on it make people mad sad but it woke us up rip to those who gave all god bless. Peace more now then ever
well said thank u for your service
I am a child of the 60's and man I was there. Kent State and most of the colleges in Ohio closed. I will never forget.
Great stuff. Neil Young seems as authentic now as he ever was. My favourite musician!
Very few artists deserve the compliment of being timeless...
I was 14 and went to a few small local protests at the high school.
My mom always said be careful.
That day we learned governments can be dangerous.
I was at a protest too, at my high school. A girl who left the year before came back from college to visit. She was just talking about the issues in the country, Vietnam, Kent State, assassinations, and the teachers called the cops on her. A bunch of us got arrested then, she for inciting a riot, not sure why we were arrested. My Dad was a Sheriff's Officer, and the cops knew him, so let me and my friend go. I was 16.
1970 or 1971. The girl brought up so many topics. The war was a big one then, but the Kent State shootings shocked the country for years. Students or anyone are allowed to peacefully protest under our 1st amendment.
unfortunately the US especially tends to be pretty heavy handed when responding to people who don’t like their tax dollars being spent on illegal wars while the rich pay nothing
The guns are always loaded.
Government is violence.
Music like this couldn’t be made in our current climate.
what is this life changing piece of music. It really got me in a perfect mood.
niel young changed my life, one man and a guitar has the power to express true humanity through song...
It is the greatest protest song of all time, haunting and unforgettable from the very first chord and word.
I was 15 yrs old and I remember watching nationwide news with my father. Very tragic!
This song is EVERY bit as relevant now as it was when originally conceived. Very moving. Here we go again.
For real. A black bar owner in Louisville was shot and killed last night by 2 policemen and 2 National guard. Stephen Miller Steve Bannon Roger Stone. Kushner is just stupid complicit. Trump doesn't read. The others have read every book by and about Nixon and Hitler. Hitler's claim to fame was "Make Germany Great Again". Roger Stone has a Strange full face size tattoo of Nixon on his back, for real, look it up.
@@jeffjernbergfaw6337 Thanx Jeff Well said :)
It absolutely is, I just came here to show this to my daughter that is a sophomore in college. My father used to play this album when I was little and tell me the stories
If I remember correctly the protests in those days ( I was born in 56 ) were peaceful, unlike today’s riots with fires, looting assaulting innocent people not counting all the police who have been injured and property that was damaged. I think it is wrong to compare the two. This beautiful music and words to this brilliant “ Ohio “ by Neil Young IMHO would not have been written today. BLM, Antifa are not at all about peace and love. I’m
Philly Guy0917 - Nope. It’s not particularly close. The protests of the 60’s and early 70’s were significantly more violent - both in terms of property damage and casualties. Significantly ... so far ...
This song is as powerful today as it was then!!!
D Bardo nope
DutchLeMan How stupid can you be? The best songs are the ones that make a statement. They live on in eternity.
even though i saw neil as a 68 year old, which was awsome, i can die happy knowing i saw the same person who played this incredible song in 1971
Neil Young broke the mold and was and still is a ONE of a Kind....Love most of his songs and play many of them on me guitar, because they are easy...Love his protest songs...Four Dead In Ohio is probable one of the best protest songs of the day...I'm 64 and still love him..
Hi thanks ❤ Merry Christmas and Happy New year. 😊
Hope you're keeping well?
I came of age with this song. Life was never the same again.
one of the most powerful songs of a generation
Never forget. Where are our troubadours for this generation? We need singers of songs to ignite our collective conscience.
Thanks Neil Young for sharing your music on You Tube. It is wonderful to listen to you in my 60's. I grew up listening to your great songs. Buffalo Springfield, Crosby Stills Nash and Young. All these songs are still relevant today.
50 years ago today, Kent.
Such an awesome emotional haunting performance!
im not white. im not even american. i live half way across the world from america. but for some reason, i feel like i've known america every time i listen to neil. i can picture out the grasslands and the nooks and crannies. i see villages nestled in lush green deep in an american provincial state. must be the weed im smoking
+Paul Milan can you taste all eleven flavors of oreos we have available in our local supermarket too?
+Jeremy Rodda haha nice
That's funny, cause Neil is Canadian 👍
You got it, Paul. I hear where you're coming from. That's the beauty of combining transcendent music with prime bud, and it never gets old.
Neil Young is the best man I feel like I'm outdoors in the woods whenever I listen to him. he is a natural. smoking weed and listening to Neil young is a must.
Absolutely incredible!
One of Neil Young's best.
Thank you so much for posting.
Born on the bayou
Integrity, humanity and transcendence. Neil has never moved an inch from that position.
You really captured the essence of Neil / greets from Milan, Italy
Until this year. Now he is demanding the heavy hand of authority. I now believe it was all a put on to enrich himself.
Classic and still relevant. This is a wonderful version.
Maybe one day it'll just be classic. This is the sort of song you wish would stop being relevant.
A 69 year old here in Ireland and it certainly resonates with me.
50 years ago this May 4th......time flies.
What a great acoustic guitar sound !
50 years ago today... I was not born yet, but Living in kent for the last 30, a day that should NEVER be forgotten... may they forever rest in peace
Sad and beautiful.
Thx Neil ✌🏽
neil full of emotiom and feeling since my time in highschool I hear and sing his songs a very deep triple scorpio
Remember Kent State so well. Saw this concert live in '71. Great to be there again.
A wonderful song in a great performance. Timeless Neil
So talented
aahhh,, if only I could go back in time,,,I'd have loved to meet Mr. Young, still would love to.....such beauty is overwhelming to me...all of his songs and poetry are magic to me. Love you Niel!
Neil Young is Iconic. His songs evoke the full spectrum of human emotions. The detail that goes into his music is amazing. Lucky to have seen him perform live.
Neil Young is the best. What a talented man..all of his songs are good. His lyrics are so poetic and always carry a strong message..love it.
@@officialneilyoung6428 Doig well how are you?
Neil Young went to public school in Pickering Ontario Canada, This artist made my city proud ft
Stunning. Masterful. That is all.
this is one of the greatest live music sets he clearly stands out on his own as one of the best
Great Song!
THEY KILLED A RISING #1 TO RUSH THIS TO BE RELEASED!!!ALL TALENT NO BS!!!!!
Facts ocurred at Kent State were sad. When combined with music by Neil Young I felt it touched something transcendental in some way of saying. It is something magic and concret at the same time.
Increible
brilliant live performance
Dear America,
We gave you Neil Young, so we can forget about Justin Beaver,
Yours truly,
Canada
John Doe Thank you Canada ! The gift of Neil more than makes up for the Beaver! Please don't do that again.
America....
John Doe Can you take Bieber back ? He likes it here way too much
John Doe Don't you want to sign this, "BOOMERS?"
said the abusive beer drunk lover. "I bought you beautiful flowers, let's just forget all about our asshole son pissing all over them".
Thank you for Bryan Adams and Celine Dion to ;)
The way Neil makes his guitar sound.. there's no one else who can dot that.. funky, chunky, soul and with so much depth!!!
+Pan3405 It's all in the palm mute. You can approximate it fairly well if you practice and try to move like Neil. But you're right no other popular performer does it.
+Robert Palmer Notice his strumming technique.
jnl5299 if you look at every acoustic or banjo song he plays, he has that same strumming pattern. The genius behind it is it allows him to accentuate his intervals and pulloff/hammer ons giving a broader sound and the neilesque walking melodies. truly amazing
Tragically beautiful hymn. Thanks Neil.
Great song, the opening chords are haunting and the lyrics grab your soul and squeeze.
This is beautiful and poignant!Fantastic!!!
Still heartbraking, thanks Neil!
Pure genius
In my opinion this is one of the best songs I have ever heard or has been written in connection as to where we were at the time.
beautiful lyrics and easily one of the top five greatest riffs of all time, what a legendary song.
Neil Young cared then and cares now. Love you Neil!
Hi thanks ❤ Merry Xmas and Happy New year. 😊 Hope you're keeping well?
Neils signature...wrote in one setting upon reading the news. Raw passionate heartfelt and real Neil. My first LP purchase was Neils debut album I purchased at Grand Orange in Cambridge square Mass. At the young age of twelve. My third album to my collection at that age other two were gifts Wheels of Fire Cream, Dave Clark Five Glad All Over. It was on a field trip in a drama group I was in at camp trip to the Boston Area museum and arts from Maine...from Camp Wigwam.
I've been a follower of wooden music since. FM radio WBZ out of Boston aired the LP, was available to my young ears in Maine...got hooked been an audiophile since. The following year at thirteen I thought of hitch hiking to Woodstock. Good Music and artistry saved my ass. Thank you Neil "for keeping it real". This time were in, people will notice, realize what that is. Karmas here...
