Neil Young's "Living With War"

Jun 15, 2006 21:37

I know Neil Young's anti-war CD has been panned by some people (there's nothing like a Canadian singing about impeaching the POTUS to rile up the chauvinistic patriots in the US), but I really LIKE it. Some of the critics are panning his message, and some are saying he threw the CD together and it sounds unprofessional... but I think that's part of its appeal. It sounds like he just got totally fed up and let it spew. I think it turned out exactly the way he envisioned it. He's outraged... and so am I. The substance and form suit my attitude about this fucking war right now. Go, Neil!

ETA: On the other hand, the "Prairie Wind" CD is sweet and fun. I have really enjoyed the song "The Last Time I Saw Elvis." Fun song... rock on.
