| Neil Young – Sugar Mountain Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Well it is either a song about how it is to be 20, or how it is not to be 20 anymore. | |

In my opinion this is not only the best song that Neil has written but one of the greatest song's ever. Each verse is a different story, a snapshot of something, and the true "meaning" of the song is the context which they produce together. This greater picture is not only a picture of that time, it's also a mental picture of Neil's state of mind at that time. The cover of the album is a great clue: It is the day after, the look at the remains. The whole thing is over and you got through and know you are standing there watching and contemplating over it... like a watching the ruins of a battlefield after the battle. It is the end of an era, a good by to it, and therefore it's also a new beginning, a turning point for a new one. |
