I've spent my whole life trying to find out who I am, so I could express that through the music.
Neil Diamond

As I said before, stones to me is meant things that hurt people, things that cause pain and thats what this song is about.
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

Free, only want to be free, we huddle close, hang on to a dream.

I may have a little bit of a talent for music, but I've learnt to tap into my own self when I write. When I put the drill bit inside my heart, sometimes I come up with something light and frothy, sometimes with something deep and painful, but it's great to connect with the audience.

When I need my wife or when I need companionship or someone to talk to, I need it, like, now. So my wife will have to give up whatever she's doing at that moment to tend to my needs. And in the same way, I would tend to hers. That's not such an easy thing to do.

I used to go to my kids' soccer games and I was the only parent who wasn't screaming, because I'd have to do a show that night. It was hard. Moms and dads get more emotional at those soccer and Little League games than at a professional game.
Neil Diamond
Image
I don't feel I have to write deep and meaningful songs they can be light and meaningless. It has to do with the place I am in my life, a really good place.
Neil Diamond
Image
Love is still a simple act of faith, and a faithful heart is always worth the wait.
Neil Diamond
Image
I was always interested in science, and pre-med was arespectable thing to do while I ursued my songwriting.
Neil Diamond
Image
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight by the fire all alone you and I. Nothing around but the sound of heart and your sighs.
Neil Diamond

Song Sung Blue took a lot of compressing and refining, and it has one of my favorite lyrics.
Neil Diamond
Image
I thought love was more or less a giving thing. Seems the more I gave, the less I got.
Neil Diamond
Image
Hands, touching hands, reaching out, touching me, touching you.
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.

You like to think that it's something you created, but secretly you know that you had some kind of help, or somebody gave this to you.
