More quotes by Neil Young
Commitments are one of the worst things to have in the music business. They're very annoying.
Neil Young
Don't think. The worst songs I've ever written happen when I think.
Neil Young
I do one take I never overdubbed twice. I know there's stuff that isn't perfect, but it doesn't matter: Nothing is perfect, and there is a magic there that is undeniable because of the fact that we don't care about those things.
Neil Young
I have so many opinions about everything it just comes out during my music. It's a battle for me. I try not to be preachy. That's a real danger.
Neil Young
I don't like the American media - particularly Fox.
Neil Young
Mother Goose, she's on the skids. Sure ain't happy, neither are the kids.
Neil Young
A little love and affection in everything you do will make the world a better place with or without you.
Neil Young

Neil Young

Neil Young
I don't know if I want White America to remember or fortoget that Jesus Christ was the first non-violent revolutionary.
Neil Young
I'm always open to new stuff. I don't sit and try to figure out what to do, I just wait for an idea to come.
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
The thing about my music is, there really is no point.
Neil Young
I think in some ways - only in some ways - but in some ways, rock and roll has let me down. It really doesn't leave you a way to grow old gracefully and continue to work.
Neil Young
We need to spread out now in the universe. I think in 100 years we'll be living on other planets.
Neil Young
I am succeeding because people are talking about how they would do it better.
Neil Young
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.
Neil Young
