Dylan’s Top 5 Neil Young Songs
Neil Young turns 69 today. It's pretty amazing to think about all the younger musicians he's influenced and all the hits he's had. Here's my top 5 of his songs. What are yours?
- 1
Heart Of Gold
James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt sing backup vocals on this one. But you probably knew that.
- 2
Rockin' In The Free World
Been covered by Bon Jovi, Simple Minds, and tons of others, but I think Pearl Jam does my favorite cover.
- 3
Old Man
In the video that I picked for this one, Neil talks about where he got the idea for this song just before he starts to sing.

Cinnamon Girl
I actually found out about this song after hearing a band called Type O Negative cover it. I can thank their cover for turning me onto Neil Young

Helpless
In a 1995 interview Neil said this isn't so much about a town but a feeling.
