Re: [bomp] Neil Young Admits Music Can't Change World




I agree....I dig the honesty...when I was 17 and 18 and first getting into Bob Dylan, and really feeling the idealism of this 60s stuff, it helped sustain my beliefs...and while I am still passionate about them....time has marched on and I now think, at 40,  he really only reflected "times"...while, in retrospect, these times, perhaps he wasn't the agent, merely the messenger?

That's actually one of the things I like most about him as a celeb/somewhat public figure. Sure there's something to be said for conviction- but not for its own sake. Sometimes you change your mind. Sometimes experience leads you to a better way.  It doesn't necessarily mean you were wrong before, but what makes sense in one place and time might not in another. Being open to re-thinking stuff, and not being too proud to admit it -I see as a mostly very positive quality.
