    This is the first version that opens the album, the acoustic version, titled My, My, Hey, Hey (Out of the Blue). The album ends with an incredibly raw, raucous electric version titled Hey, Hey, My, My (Into the Black). Much different vibe, as you can imagine - especially on the follow-up tour album, "Live Rust."
    Great stuff!

    In Kurt Cobain's suicide note, Cobain used a portion of the lyrics from this song - “It's better to burn out than to fade away”. Young has said that finding out that Cobain had used this lyric in his suicide note scarred him and messed with his mind for a long time. He was saddened that he felt that Cobain had misunderstood what Young had meant by that particular lyric

    • @alphajava761
      @alphajava761 Před rokem +10

      Young lost Bruce Berry Neil's roadie and good friend as well as Danny Whitten his twin flame rhythm guitarist who died a short time apart in 1973. I think Young would be particularly sensitive to Cobain's death but I think that note hit harder because of Young's experience with losing people close to him. These deaths and his breakup with Carrie Snodgrass lead Young to create 4 albums that concentrate on these tragedies in his life. It's known as the ditch trilogy of albums but Zuma is a part of that as well.

    A few songs you'd love: "POCAHONTAS" (one of the most beautiful, haunting songs ever) and "LIKE A HURRICANE," and "I AM A CHILD"... Brilliant all.

      Definitely one of the best ever. However he did change greatly over the years and to me doesn't seem to be about free speech anymore. Maybe it's just part of the leftist cult but you don't try to cancel someone if you don't agree with them. We are supposed to be better than that.

    I may have shared this story before, so apologies if I'm repeating myself. My high school sweetheart and I were together in 1972, but after the break-up and our graduations, we went to separate colleges and I moved out of state, so we lost touch with each other. We both played guitar at the time, and Neil Young brought us together. We both loved his music, and it was about the time his Harvest album came out. The old flame would come over and we would always jam to Neil Young. Fast- forward to 2010, I got a FB message from him, after 36 years, and the rest is history. We got married in 2011! Probably sounds corny, but not to us! All this being said, Neil Young will ALWAYS be special to us! Thanks for this great reaction and stirring up the nostalgia of reminiscing about our love story. ✌💙✌

    It's interesting that you mentioned Lynyrd Skynyrd. Neil Young and Lynyrd Skynyrd were involved in a years long feud. Lynyrd Skynyrd took issue with Young's criticism of the South starting with Young's song "Southern Man" and it was amplified when Young released his song "Alabama." As a result it inspired Lynyrd Skynyrd to respond with their hit song "Sweet Home Alabama." There's a reprise to this song "Into The Black" where they use electric guitars instead of acoustic and rock it up a bit.

      It wasn't a feud, it was tongue in cheek on Ronnie's part...they loved Neil's music, just felt a bit insulted and blamed for actions of other southerners...Ronnie is wearing a Neil Young T-shirt on live performances here on CZcams, notably Freebird, and he is wearing that shirt on the last album cover photo before the plane crash; And Neil was a fan of Skynyrd, he wrote this song for them to record, but then the plane crash happened czcams.com/video/o3td3Q5Jr6A/video.html

      The feud is overblown. They liked each other’s work. In fact, Neil Young sent Powderfinger to Ronnie Van Zant for Skynyrd to record. Then the place crash happened and Young eventually recorded it with Crazy Horse on Rust Never Sleeps.

And then of course being Neil Young and being so poetic, in the final verse It completely transcends whatever setting it could ever be put in and makes a comment about how tragic it is when young people die, regardless of whether it was a justified situation or not. Either way it's just tragic. And it's a fantastic song musically on top of it. Really pulls on the emotions.

    It's funny that you make a reference to Lynyrd Skynyrd. Their biggest song includes the line, "Well I hope Neil Young will remember, a Southern Man don't need him around any how." That was in reference to his earlier song "Southern Man." They were fans of each others songs, and Young actually played "Sweet Home Alabama" a couple of times in his live sets.

    It took me a long time to appreciate Neil Young, which as a Canadian is tantamount to treason, but he is one of the greatest song writers ever. I’d still argue his voice is an acquired taste, but as I said, one I now appreciate. I’d give another vote to Like a Hurricane and would also recommend The Needle and the Damage Done.

    If you like this, you'll like "The Needle and the Damage Done". You can even find a good live version. Brilliant lyrics about heroin taking away so many friends and so many good musicians folks will now never be able to hear. Neil said, "I am not a preacher, but drugs killed a lot of great men."

    I used to do this song because it's one you do by yourself. I could never quite nail the harmonica but the beauty of the internet has allowed me to watch a ton of live performances of this song, and Neil doesn't nail it either.....in any other performance. 😁this is literally the best performance of the song he ever did. The second harmonica solo in this song is the best one ever did in a song. I spent years trying to get it right. Rarely getting the full power of this recording. It did my heart good to see Neil rarely matched it. It's really special.

    Neil does some stomping Hard Rock versions of this too!!!!
    "It's better to burn out, than to fade away" was written by Kurt Cobain's suicide note, in 1994...Neil was seen as the Grandfather to some of the "Grunge Music" bands. Neil, had trouble playing this song for a while after.

    When you guys did “Rockin in the Free World” you accidentally played some random guy doing his Neil Young impersonation. The song may not be among Neil’s top ten, but it is an honest reaction to the crack epidemic of the 80’s, and a different side of Neil that you might not want to miss. Please keep going down the rabbit hole with this artist. You’ll be rewarded with so much quality music. Btw, this whole album is a masterpiece.

    Neil Young 🇨🇦 is beloved in his home country! His writing is the best & messages he gives are positive & purposeful, he has never been afraid to speak out through his songs. ‘Ohio’ is a song that propelled people into action, I remember protesting because of the National Guard of Ohio shooting young students at a protest. In Canada we protested our RCMP killing indigenous people who stood up to protect their lands from destruction by big companies destroying forests, putting pipelines on indigenous lands etc …. ‘Ohio’ always comes to mind when I see protests around the world & in my own country 🇨🇦☮️. Neil tells it like it is.

    One of my favorite concerts was a Neil Young concert I saw. He walked out on a completely empty stage, totally empty, not an instrument, an amp, nothing, just Neil in his jeans and flannel shirt. He played a couple on guitar, added a harmonica for a couple, the rolled out a piano and pianist and every couple songs added an instrument. It was the cleanest, most stripped down sound, he played and told stories, and it was amazing.

    • @ptournas
      @ptournas Před rokem +1

      I like that variety in a concert. I saw Donovan on his "Mellow Yellow" tour in 1967. He did his first set with a jazz combo and sang his jazzier songs like "Sunny Goodge Street". Second set he brought out a rock band and did songs like "Season of the Witch". Third set he came on stage with a string quartet and harpsichord and sang his songs that sounded like they were written centuries ago, like "Guinivere". Last set he played solo and did his folk stuff like "Catch the Wind".
      And the kicker was his opening act. A 16 year old girl named "Janis Ian" singing her new song "Society's Child".
      It was definitely among the top concerts I've ever seen.

    When performing live, Neil always opens with an acoustic set then moves into an electric set. This song is the acoustic version of a song that, in its electric iteration, is called “My my, hey hey” (rock and roll is here to stay). In my opinion, you haven’t really heard Neil Young until you experience an electric set. The album you had, “Rust Never Sleeps” is the soundtrack to a movie of the same name where you can experience what I just described
