When the punk thing came along and I heard my friends saying, I hate these people with the pins in their ears. I said, Thank God, something got their attention.

More quotes by Neil Young
Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow The drummer relaxes and waits between shows For his cinnamon girl.
Neil Young
Back then people closed their eyes and listened to music. Today there's a lot of images that go with the music. A lot of music is crap and it's all commercial and the images are all trying to sell the record.
Neil Young
With a lot of songs on this record, one verse doesn't relate to the next verse. I don't think that one day really relates to the next day in life.
Neil Young
Think I'll roll another number for the road
Neil Young
I started writing Peace Trail here in Colorado, then I went back to California. I had a few other tunes going around in my head, so I had a couple of them finished after a few days and then I wanted to go into the studio.
Neil Young
I see a woman in the night with a baby in her hand, under an old street light near a garbage can.
Neil Young
I don't like war. I particularly don't like the celebration of war, which I think the administration is a little bit guilty of.
Neil Young
Corporations don't have children. They don't have feelings or souls. They don't depend on uncontaminated water, clean air, or healthy food to survive. They are beholden to one thing - the bottom line.
Neil Young
I never knew a man could tell so many lies, he had a different story for every set of eyes. How can he remember who he's talking to?
Neil Young
Holding back is so close to stealing.
Neil Young
An idea discovered is much better possessed.
Neil Young
The cutthroat avenues of rock 'n' roll, I am fed up with. I don't want anything to do with it.
Neil Young
Commitments are one of the worst things to have in the music business. They're very annoying.
Neil Young
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
Neil Young
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them. And I try to forgive them anyway I can.
Neil Young
Without freedom of expression, good taste means nothing.
Neil Young
The person who still blushes is not yet a degenerate.
Neil Young
Now I'm at a point where I decided I'm going to be in the studio for a while, at least until I finish this record I'm working on now. I should have two, three, four of the sessions that I had that were similar to the sessions for Peace Trail before I have a complete record.
Neil Young
The music world has taken a huge dump, so maybe there's a connection. So if Apple decided to do this, maybe they do their own version ... whatever they want to do it's a home run for music. Unless they screw it up, and try to put something on it so that they can own it - I'm calling it out, proprietary formats are not a good thing.
Neil Young
Earth is a flower and it's pollinating.
