I think I'd like to go
Back home
And take it easy
There's a woman that
I'd like to get to know
Living there

Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
I gotta get away
From this day-to-day
Running around
Everybody knows
This is nowhere

Everybody, everybody knows
Everybody knows

Every time I think about
Back home
It's cool and breezy
I wish that I could be there
Right now
Just passing time

Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
I gotta get away
From this day-to-day
Running around
Everybody knows
This is nowhere

Everybody, everybody knows
Everybody knows

The first (of many) NY songs I fell in love with – age 13.  Still a pretty damn good song.  It's fun to hear Crazy Horse doing the "la la" thing.

What a burst of energy!  Reminds me of driving to high school, listening to my tape deck, signing at the top of my lungs.  Can't remember the last time I heard this song, but I was able to sing along with every word while still answering email and singing.  The song is so burned into my consciousness that no effort is required to recall the lyrics.

I don't think.  A bit too lean and a bit too big of a frame to be a Jack Russell.  I'm looking into dog breeds for one to adopt when I finally get out of NYC later in '21.  A Jack Russell is a big dog in a little body,  and that Neil dog looks like a littler dog in a bigger body.

You don't get retroactively evaluated for a Nobel. 

The Nobel Prize was for being a black man elected as the leader of an incorrigibly racist country.  One that is even worse in this regard now.  That and the fact that at the time he was fighting to give health care to all Americans (whether or not you believe in the result).  

Those achievements were unlocked at the ballot box in 2008, in part because of his war presnit predecessor, and in his first year in office.  Hence the award at that time.

As an ex hi- fi professional, given the right equipment 192 kbs Ogg Vorbis is quite stunning. I listen to it via a Bluesound Node 2, Audiolab MDAC and Hifiman HE 400i headphones which as a system is very revealing. At no time have I felt I was missing anything at all. In fact I can say the same about 256 kbs AAC files too. Higher bitrates etc might be very sublty more detailed etc but frankly the law of diminishing returns applies. I have tried the higher bitrate streaming services and just keep coming back to RP not least for the suberb varied and high quality music. It really does not get any better!

I understand from interviews that he is so disappointed with the sound quality that streaming services offer that he removed almost all of his songs from Spotify.I deeply regret that and I really don't understand. After all the "trashy garage sound" is his more or less his trademark. So what is he aiming for? To promote this Pono-thing? I can hardly believe this.

Despite my comments below, I think you make a valid point. Having read his lengthy biography I know that he was never after high fidelity in the recording studio, particularly in his early recordings, so it does seem a bit odd that he is now concerned about improving on mp3 technology. In the end, if Pono sounds better than the mp3 alternatives, then I guess the inspiration behind it is moot. At least people have a choice now.

Y'know, I grew up on Neil Young listening to his albums and leaning to play his songs, but in retrospect I now find his compositions and playing style tedious and unimaginative.  Radio Paradise seems to play a disproportionate amount of Neil Young's music.  I'm sorry to say that when I hear his songs, I just can't wait for them to end!  That said, I really love Radio Paradise for the incredible variety of music that they play.  There is excellent music in all styles and tastes and Radio Paradise samples them all.  I've heard to artists that I had forgotten or never heard of.  From Bollywood, to Mancini to George Harrison, to Joe Strummer and Antje Duvekot, you're the reason I still buy music!

Neil at his stripped down best. Although he has put out some mighty fine music, in many ways, I think this was his best album. Probably better than anyone, he can take one basic line, like "everybody knows this is nowhere," sing it over and over again, and somehow it does not sound trite or even repetitive. It always sounds meaningful.

Neil does have some excellent songs, but this isn't one of them. I'll take CSN over Y most days of the week. (And I'll take S over either C or N. Southern Cross is probably the best single piece of music that ever came out of that cohort.)
Neil Young is part of the exclusive Mt.Rushmore of North American Rock n Roll. - Second greatest American songwriter next to Dylan. Steve Stills is a very talented top 25 percentile rock and roll writer, singer, guitarist performer. CSY was a very good band - Graham and David - who were both second bananas in very good bands before - are good harmonizers with some good songs of their own. My friend - methinks you would be very much in the minority of choosing CSY or CSNY over Y.

check out the Dar Williams/Marshall Crenshaw cover, on her "My Better Self" album-- they nail this song!

Not remotely.

Neil does have some excellent songs, but this isn't one of them. I'll take CSN over Y most days of the week. (And I'll take S over either C or N. Southern Cross is probably the best single piece of music that ever came out of that cohort.)

The Mother Hips cover this song (and a lot of NY) nicely. They actually performed the entire LP at a NY tribute show in SF a couple/three years back. I was there -it was good.
