Take my hand, my child of love
Come step inside my tears
Swim the magic ocean,

    dude Cowgirl in the Sand is amazing, as is Down by the River, as is all of Tonights the Night.

    and yeah the line in sweet home alabama is "hope Neil Young will remember.."
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    Cortez the Killer :cool:
    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.

    It's hard to chose a favorite NY album, but I love After the Goldrush. Also, check out Live at Massey Hall.

    On The Beach is over-rated.

    Time Fades Away is way better.

    Ooooh, I'm very fond of On the Beach :) Each to his own I guess.
    Too many favourites to mention them all though, but I'll try......Powderfinger.A man needs a Maid (in fact the whole of Harvest). Like a Hurricane. Hank to Hendrix. Harvest Moon. Ordinary People is a song from the latest album, and it's a corker :)
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    I like On The Beach too. It's just not a Top 10 album for me. It's a crime against humanity that Time Fades Away is not available on CD. Download the promo CD right away!

    Here's the entire portion referring to Neil:

    Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her
    Well, I heard ole Neil put her down.
    Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
    a southern man don't need him around anyhow.

    Heart of Gold is my number one favorite song. Always was. Always will be.

    There was a rumor Ronnie Van Zant was buried in a Neil Young T-shirt. I believe it has been disproved, but makes for a great little urban legend.
    "Tweet"

    "Chirp"

    Neil also wrote Powderfinger and some other tunes for Skynyrd, but they had that whole plane crash thing before they could record any.

    "Change Your Mind" and "Piece of Crap" from Sleeps with Angels are a couple of winners in my book.
    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
