Thinking of this song after a big Thanksgiving meal. Set out for a walk to work off a piece of pie (or at least q pecan or two)...

Walk On

Good ol' #NeilYoung #music #musica #musique #musik #WalkOn #walk

I hear some people been talkin' me down
Bring up my name, pass it 'round
They don't mention happy times
They do their thing, I'll do mine
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel
Some get stoned, some get strange
Sooner or later, it all gets real
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on
I remember the good old days
Stayed up all night gettin' crazed
Then the money was not so good
But we still did the best we could
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel
Some get stoned, some get strange
Sooner or later it all gets real
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on

iChing pull / seems appropriate for the day too...

Neil Young. Live. 20 Years ago. A favorite song, many may know well, but this concert recording is new to me. And wow.

Neil Young - Cortez the Killer - Hamburg Germany April 28 2003

A song about a killer 'dancing across the water' to conquer a peaceful people.. But even without the story ... As one of the comments says, he is definitely "in the zone". Of harmony. Like the Aztecs.

Just listen to the sound & it's texture, how he bends & caresses the notes & harmonics here, solo - just him, his guitar & his voice.

I'll add the lyrics (below) .... But listen to the sound too. That is his thing, in addition to the stories, harmony & harmonics.
Plus wicked guitar and harmonica. With tenderness as well as edge. One of the greats of the 60s-70s-80s-90s....

"Hi" from HI, happy weekend!
A double header, things on my mind....

Here's an image not on my website, guessing it was in my Google+ Collection.
This is Pāpōhaku Beach, Moloka'i, 3 miles of white sand, few signs of people.

Pairing that with my latest 'ear-worm' in the making, getting it out before it gets stuck.
(I woke up this morning to "Canary in a Coal Mine" - could not get it out of go back to sleep!)

Now into my head popped this song, and along with it, this image.

Walk On 👣

Karma express...

Sometimes a walk is heaven, sometimes things are not right, and it's a good time to walk..
This was a little blip of airplay in a fun time to be, mid-70's and Neil's walking the guitar in new directions,... Fun times for walks.

"Walk On" - Neil Young

I remember the good old days
Stayed up all night gettin' crazed
Then the money was not so good
But we still did the best we could
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel
Some get stoned, some get strange
Sooner or later it all gets real
Walk on, walk on

Good ol' Neil...

I just came across this now, an acoustic version (live) of Neil Young performing solo, a very complex - and powerful - song, about a tyrant who goes "dancing across the waters" to destroy innocent people.

Long a favorite but sad song... Timely, different. Lyrics below:

Cortez the Killer

He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
In that palace in the sun
On the shore lay Montezuma
With his cocoa leaves and pearls
In his halls, he often wandered
With the secrets of the worlds
And his subjects gathered round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see
And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on
Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
They carried them to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built up with their bare hands
What we still can't build today
And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way
Cortez, Cortez
He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer

So it’s not just their embracing race-dissing, conspiracy theorists, and deadly COVID disinformation…

NeilYoung, feeling good about leaving #Spotify in the dust, shares a bit of tech talk about how downgraded the audio quality is on Spotify as well, squeezing out profit while at the same time taking away audio quality, up to 95% of dynamic range forfeited.
