Cover art for Wasted On The Way lyrics by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

This song is written by Graham Nash about making up with Stephen Stills after the big argument that Graham Nash and David Crosby had with Stephen Stills and Neil Young for wiping their vocals off of the recording of Long May You Run (which they had recorded before Nash and Crosby had to leave for solo commitments) and releasing the song under the name The Stills-Young Band instead of CSNY. Young later abandoned Stills on a tour. Stills wife also filed for divorce. Nash's future wife talked Nash and Crosby to make up with Stills in the following year and they have been singing, recording and touring together since.
