Neil's best work with the Buffalo Springfield. Great tune!

Love this song. Always haunted by these words:
"She said you're strange, but don't change, and I let her"

In his Neil Young biography Shakey, Jimmy McDonough speculates that the lyrics below could refer to Neil's bouts of epilepsy.
"Stick around while the clown
who is sick
does the trick of disaster
For the race of my head
and my face
is moving much faster"

It sounds like the typical frenetic guitar stylings of Neil Young. I always thought his guitar work suited his subject matter very well. |

Mmmm, Neil's voice on this one is really fine, IMO.

Amazing that Neil can still bring it after all these years. Most of his peers are antique curios and nostalgia acts.

Can't say this classic 10 is overplayed on RP.

...it's actually "She said 'You're strange but don't change.' And I let her". Great song about groupies and fans in general. |

Well said Red. I suppose we are showing our age, but so what! Great music stands the test of time.
