So, do these two tracks fit, here?
Ironically, they sort of ring well next to each other, no?

"Fuckin'  Up"

by

Neil  Young  &  Crazy  Horse


8)

(here's an audio only live version from 'Weld')

(and this live footage, playing with the guys from Pearl Jam)

This one's for anyone (like me) who's ever felt like a total fcuk up at some point in their life,
and also, for everyone else here, who genuinely loves and appreciates Neil Young / Crazy Horse's work, repertoire.


followed by

"A  Horse  With  No  Name"

by

America


I was one of the ones who went decades, mistakingly believing that this song was written and sung by Neil.
Apparently, at the time, the similarities caused backlash with Young's fans.  I'm ok with it.
Wouldn't've bothered me either way, had I known it wasn't Neil, back then.

Is is a crime to believe in something different?

I've been crying for 3 whole days and I can't fcukin' stop.  I'm trying sooooo bloody hard.  But it's sooooo hard.  I'm not as strong as I seem.  I can't get my shit together.  Even the pills aren't working for me anymore.  Why can't I let go?  What is this?  I need to let go.  I don't belong here, there, or anywhere for that matter.  I'm SO sorry.  I never meant to fall.  I wasn't intending to fall.  I didn't come to see you fall either... I love you, you matter!  You've always mattered.  And I didn't have to be anywhere near you, for this to be true.  I never meant for you to ever, ever see me.  But he made it happen.  I'll cherish his spirit forevermore, for his kindness, guidance and profoundly moving nudge towards you.

'GOD', I miss you so much.  I miss everything about you... your beautiful face... your radiant smile... your forgiving eyes... the way you stood... your heavenly presence... intoxicatingly sublime posture... your warm breath... the way you moved... the way you spoke... every single word that fell from your sweet, kind and generous lips... all of it... everything.  So much worth and beauty in you... if only you could see it for yourself, too.

Thank you... more than words could possibly ever hope to express.   Rise, my love... there's good work to be done.

'I'm still living the dream we had, For me it's not over...'
« Reply #11576 on: September 02, 2020, 12:21:41 PM »


You are all I think about when this guy / these guys play, and they've been playing a lot these days.  When I was at their gig(s), it was all my thoughts and gorgeous, beautiful, sacred and treasured memories of you, that drew sooooo many, many, many tears, while I was stood there... in the dark, all alone, all by myself.  It was you,  you were all that was on my mind, just like right now.  Just, like always.  And when I saw that photo you took from the gig you attended, I broke down, the very instant I saw it, and kissed it with just as many tears.

It tore right through me, just like the one you took from the balcony in Italy.  I felt it... from thousands, upon thousands, upon thousands of miles and an ocean away.  And it fcukin' cut so deep into me, killed me, that I wasn't there to 'see' you, 'feel' you, 'touch' you, 'heal' you, b-r-e-a-t-h-e you, in.  I wanted so much to be there, but I was too hurt, and afraid of what happened, of what might've happened again.  I was terrified of a repeat situation of what happened on my last night seeing you in the ancient city, where all roads lead to.  You're the only one who can hurt me.  You're the only one who I'll let, hurt me... "because I love you too much" as Oldman says to his Little Woman in that epic tale of a film.

I was trying SOoooo hard not to cry, just like I've been trying these past 4 days, and right this very second.

Ohhh, 'GOD',  my love, my one true love, please... don't let go, of your good dream(s).  You are SO worth it, SO worthy.  Don't listen to anyone who tells you different, 'cause they're all fcukin' blind, BLIND!!!  I love and care about you SO fcukin' much.  And I'm SO sorry that I do, 'cause I know it's not the same for you.  And that's totally ok with me.  That's why I really didn't come.  I'll always, always love and care about you.  Just as intensely as I did when you never even saw me, knew me, knew I even existed.  And, the bittersweet beauty of it all, is that I don't ever have to be physically near you to do so.  I'll love you forevermore, however far apart, from whatever side, wherever I go or end up in the end.

I pray you're doing ok these days especially... regarding this damn Corona shit that has made / taken hostage of the world and its citizens.  I hope they find a cure / vaccine(s) that doesn't / don't have any or horrible side effects.  I heard you cry out for more time, and when one cries out, an old good friend always listens.  I hope your using this unexpected break of sorts to tie up loose ends, finish up old projects you've been sittin' on all these years, and getting that ol' pen going again.  Write to me sometime, I'd love to hear from you.  How about a book?  You've got everything it takes and it's already been floatin' around in your head, not to mention, radiates through the history in and of your blood.  You write so well, so movingly, so beautifully, and are the one person I care to hear from the most.

I hope none of this has pissed you off, any.  That is never my intent or where my heart, soul and head are ever, ever at.  Take care in these strangest of times, and 'one day maybe, we will' meet 'again, under fiery skies'.. just like the day when we first met, all those years ago.

Be well, my beautiful, beautiful friend.  See you on the road again... someday, sometime, somewhere.

Chin-up, my darling.  Stand tall.  And, if it ever feels / becomes too hard for you to do so, or bear,  then remember all of us / me.  Use us, who love and believe in you... let us hold you up, my sweet, just like those majestic and countless towers we've seen erected, over the years at NMA gigs we've been to.  It's not over.  It's not too late, for you.  Ok?

Now, don't mock me or laugh, when I quote / sing this one, but  'you're the best thing that ever happened, to me, or the world'  and I am SO incredibly honoured and pleased to have been put here, while you were here too.

Thank you, more than words, more than words...

"Buildings  and  Mountains"

by

The  Republic  Tigers


This truly beautiful song is so poignant, deeply moving, profound,
that I am compelled to post the lyrics to it as well.


We've been waiting all our lives,
For things we've always had, but have no eyes to see.
Something new is going to happen,
The most natural thing, but nothing we'd expect.

All these buildings and mountains,
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes.

How do cities understand?
We drink our wine and wonder why we're really here.
What's the point of even asking?
You take the good and bad and make the best of it.

All these buildings and mountains,
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes.
All these buildings and mountains,
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes.

All of you, watch to see us move.
Just make your fall before this age of industry.
For today, I'll let it go...

You've been good to me, have I been good to you?


:-[:'(
