(Just bunged this onto the MLMB and thought I'd share it with the alkys over here). Hi to everyone who went to see the last gig of Neil Young's two year tour in Hyde Park on Saturday. Well, hi to anyone really... What a truly special and magical day it was. Anyway, here's five great songs on BBC iPlayer from Neil's gig at Glastonbury the night before: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00lg6ss/Glastonbury_2009_Day_1_Highlights_Part_Two/ At 2.10 mins in: The Needle and the Damage Done Words At 20.10 mins in: Get Behind the Wheel Rockin' in the Free World At 36.55 in Day in the Life (Ding ding) ENJOY! Best, Rich. PS - Nice little dig at Obama if you listen carefully - see lyrics below. Rockin' In The Free World: There's colors on the street Red, white and blue People shufflin' their feet People sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them So I try to forget it, any way I can. Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world. I see a woman in the night With a baby in her hand Under an old street light Near a garbage can Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit She hates her life, and what she's done to it There's one more kid that will never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool. Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world. We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man We got a kinder, gentler, Machine gun hand We got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive (Reagan's bullshit "keep hope alive" changed to Obamarama's bullshit " yes we can") Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive. Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world, Keep on rockin' in the free world.
