<![CDATA[Grist - Comment Feed for Taking Neil Young’s latest album out for a spin]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by Kit Stolz http://www.grist.org/article/2009-04-20-neil-young-fork-in-the-road/ Wed, 22 Apr 2009 13:05:52 -0700 http://www.grist.org/article/2009-04-20-neil-young-fork-in-the-road/1 The most interesting song I've heard from the record had nothing to do with the environment, but everything to do with the difficulty of making what used to be called "message music."

It's called "Just Singing a Song," and it is built on the chorus: 

"Just singing a song/Won't change the world..."

And it rocks, btw...which maybe why it was the only one from the record that Young played when he last performed live, at his great annual fall Bridge Benefit concert.
