Neil Diamond
Hands, touching hands, reaching out, touching me, touching you.
Neil Diamond

When I first started, I worked with three chords in every bar, but I found that tied me down - I'm not a chord-change writer, I'm a songwriter.
Neil Diamond
Well, I Am... I Said was a very difficult song, very difficult because I really had to spend a lot of time thinking about what I was before the song was written.
Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond
But you make me sing like a guitar humming . . .
Neil Diamond
My voice is unadorned. I don't try for perfection. I try to be honest and truthful and soulful with the voice I have. If I make mistakes in notes, or there are cracks in notes, I don't fix them. That's the way it is.
Neil Diamond
When I am not writing, I'm dying.
Neil Diamond
Well, I loved singing in the chorus, and there was some connection for me between gospel and choral music.
Neil Diamond
I Am... I Said is a very complicated song and its complicated probably because my feelings were very complicated when I wrote it.
Neil Diamond
