My career is built around a pattern that just keeps repeating itself over and over again. There's nothing surprising about it at all. My changes are as easy to predict as the sun coming up and down.

There's a lot of frustration in trying to get music out when you're the only one who hears it, especially if you have something in your head that's not normal.

You gotta keep changing. Shirts, old ladies, whatever.

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
Image
Being a musician enables a person to bend the notes and express things that are inside you, no matter what.
Neil Young
Image
Down by the river, I shot my baby dead.
Neil Young
Image
You have to be ready to give everything you have, and you have to make sure you've really got a lot to give. Because if ... you're not ready to give everything you have, ... then you're nothin'.

I look at radio as gone … Piracy is the new radio, that’s how music gets around.
Neil Young
Image
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.

As I get older, I get smaller. I see other parts of the world I didn't see before. Other points of view. I see outside myself more.
