Neil Young - After The Goldrush

Time for a tune from the man I owe my name (real name) to!
Neil Young - After The Goldrush
Well I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming, Saying something about a queen. There were peasants singing And drummers drumming And the archer split the tree. There was a fanfare blowing to the sun, That was floating on the breeze. Look at Mother Nature on the run, In the nineteen seventies... Look at Mother Nature on the run, In the nineteen seventies...
I was lying in a burned out basement With the full moon in my eyes I was hoping for replacement When the sun burst through the sky. There was a band playing in my head And I felt like getting high! I was thinking about what a friend had said, I was hoping it was a lie. Thinking about what a friend had said, I was hoping it was a lie.
Well I dreamed I saw the silver space ships flying In the yellow haze of the sun, There were children crying And colours flying All around the chosen ones. All in a dream, all in a dream The loading had begun Flying Mother Nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun. Flying Mother Nature's silver seed to a new home.

Definitely one of mine, too!
Apparently my father was quite the Neil Young nut, as well...enough so that he named me after the man

That's one of my favorite songs by him. The whole album is great but I prefer the album Harvest.
My two favs:
Heart of Gold
I wanna live, I wanna give I?ve been a miner for a heart of gold It?s these expressions I never give That keep me searchin? for a heart of gold,
And I?m gettin? old Keeps me searchin? for a heart of gold, And I?m gettin? old
I?ve been to Hollywood, I?ve been to Redwood I?d cross the ocean for a heart of gold I?ve been in my mind, it?s such a fine line That keeps me searchin? for a heart of gold, And I?m gettin? old Keeps me searchin? for a heart of gold, And I?m gettin? old
Keep me searchin? for a heart of gold, Keep me searchin? And I?m growin? old Keep me searchin? for a heart of gold, I?m just a miner for a heart of gold
Old Man
Old man, look at my life I?m a lot like you were
Old man, look at my life Twenty-four and there?s so much more Live alone in a paradise That makes you think of two
Love lost, such a cost Give me things that don?t get lost Like a coin that won?t get tossed Rollin? home to you
Old man, take a look at my life, I?m a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that?s true
Lullaby, look in your eyes Run around the same old ground Doesn?t mean that much to me To mean that much to you
I?ve been first and last Look at how the time goes past But I?m all alone at last Rollin? home to you

so the question everybody is asking themselves is, which album is Neil Young's best?
in my opinion.. all of them. he's consistantly impressive.

Neil is beautiful!
All her friends call her Little Wing But she flies rings around them all She comes to town when the children sing And leaves them feathers if they fall She leaves her feathers if they fall
Little Wing, don't fly away When the summer turns to fall Don't you know some people say The winter is the best time of them all Winter is the best of all.

...weird, cause I decided to hit the bong before heading in to work today and then picked a CD for the long walk...so I walk into work, turn ont he computer, fire up the shroomery,a nd the first thing I see is exactly what I'm listening to.
morning all!
