May 18, 2016 - Neil Young - I Believe in You (1970)


Although this is a fairly sad song, I still feel better when I hear Neil sing 'I believe in you'. It is comforting. He delivers the vocals so perfectly, so yearning but with some confusion too. Like, what are you doing here? I am not sure this is a good idea. I've always liked the chorus, the way Neil's voice rises up the second time he sings the title. Lots of delicate little things happening throughout the music - couple of guitars, vibes on the left speaker, simple drum, piano. All providing space for each other in the overall conversation.
