Having apparently exorcised his demons by releasing the cathartic Tonight's the Night, Neil Young returned to his commercial strengths with Zuma (named after Zuma Beach in Los Angeles, where he now owned a house). Seven of the album's nine songs were recorded with the reunited Crazy Horse, in which rhythm guitarist Frank Sampedro had replaced the late Danny Whitten, but there were also nods to other popular Young styles in "Pardon My Heart," an acoustic song that would have fit on Harvest, his most popular album, and "Through My Sails," retrieved from one of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's abortive Read Full BioHaving apparently exorcised his demons by releasing the cathartic Tonight's the Night, Neil Young returned to his commercial strengths with Zuma (named after Zuma Beach in Los Angeles, where he now owned a house). Seven of the album's nine songs were recorded with the reunited Crazy Horse, in which rhythm guitarist Frank Sampedro had replaced the late Danny Whitten, but there were also nods to other popular Young styles in "Pardon My Heart," an acoustic song that would have fit on Harvest, his most popular album, and "Through My Sails," retrieved from one of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's abortive recording sessions. Young had abandoned the ragged, first-take approach of his previous three albums, but Crazy Horse would never be a polished act, and the music had a lively sound well-suited to the songs, which were some of the most melodic, pop-oriented tunes Young had crafted in years, though they were played with an electric-guitar-drenched rock intensity. The overall theme concerned romantic conflict, with lyrics that lamented lost love and sometimes longed for a return ("Pardon My Heart" even found Young singing, "I don't believe this song"), though the overall conclusion, notably in such catchy songs as "Don't Cry No Tears" and "Lookin' for a Love," was to move on to the next relationship. But the album's standout track (apparently the only holdover from an early intention to present songs with historical subjects) was the seven-and-a-half-minute epic "Cortez the Killer," a commentary on the Spanish conqueror of Latin America that served as a platform for Young's most extensive guitar soloing since his work on Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere.

Don't Cry No Tears
Neil Young & Crazy Horse Lyrics
Don't cry no tears around me
Don't cry no tears around me
'Cause when all the water's gone
The feeling lingers on
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
Well, I wonder, who's with her tonight?
And I wonder, who's holding her tight?
But there's nothing I can say
To make him go away
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
But there's nothing I can say
To make him go away
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
Don't cry no tears around me

Don't cry no tears around me
Don't cry no tears around me
'Cause when all the water's gone
The feeling lingers on
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
Well, I wonder who's with her tonight
And I wonder who's holding her tight
But there's nothing I can say
To make him go away
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
There's nothing I can say
To make him go away
Old true love ain't too hard to see
Don't cry no tears around me
Don't cry no tears around me
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me
Perché quando tutta l’acqua se n’è andata
Il sentimento perdura
L’antico, vero amore non è tanto difficile da vedere
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me
Bhe mi chiedo chi sia con lei stanotte
E mi chiedo chi la tenga stretta
Ma non c’è nulla che io possa dire
Per farlo andare via
L’antico, vero amore non è tanto difficile da vedere
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me
Non c’è nulla che io possa dire
Per farlo andare via
L’antico, vero amore non è tanto difficile da vedere
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me
Non piangere lacrime davanti a me

Hi Neil Young,
I wrote this in 1975 it’s called “Words”
Don’t you wish you knew the right words all the time, that slowed down meaning called tenderness, a loving communication of the way you really feel. So often it’s hard to express yourself with words. These are the moments that silent words puts your mind at peace and all the unspoken words say the things you want to say those times are so important to get you they the day.
Today I finished this one. I wear a new hat today I’m moving from the one I’ve carried with me my entire life, my new hat a my spirit self feels rejuvenated from whom I am becoming.. while you sleep, you wake up, it embraces you. A time for breathe. Inhale,
Exhale, Be it. Be the breathe..
I’m still looking for
Rock am Ring part 1 is there a part 2 ??
I’m also looking forDifferently
I enjoy finding new music I’ve maybe heard once or not at all. Like I gotta get somewhere. Slow poke and without wings. Well if I keep searching I hope to find them all and more.
Every time you do, “Change your mind” it’s done with such heart. It’s a look a smile and maybe that dimple. Thank you over and over helping me with the transition I’m going thru
I listened to your music in November and December then the last day of Dec and the last day of 2020 I did a Neil Young marathon. I listen between 3 and 8 hrs a day mostly in the evening and into the night where for me The music comes alive
Thank You again Donna❣️🎶🚂🌹

Dear Mr. Young ,
I just wanted to say that you've been the guiding light in my life. I also come from a broken home and your song about your personal challenges that you had and about " lying on my back in the school yard " in , Dont be denied , really helped me. You saved my life. I realized that I'm still a viable person even though my life isn't perfect !
Anthony Pellico
