anniversary song emotional
We can't forget what happened on May 4th, 1970, when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
encouragement grateful parent
My parents recognized something in me that they encouraged instead of deflated, and I'll always be grateful to them for that.
country issues people
I fail to see the issue that will shock the people of this great country of ours into some decisive action.
writing people difficult
I find it somewhat difficult to write with other people, although it has happened occasionally.
song mean simple
All the signs were right. And when I mean all the sings were right, the only signs that we care about when we start a project of making a record is, do we have the songs - it's that simple.
song six seven
After six or seven performances of any song, you begin to perform it rather than feel it.
past people long
One can't deny what has happened to us in the past. The secret is to enjoy and be proud of the music we've created and the people with whom we have been linked. It's all a long chain of involvement in the world, and we are proud to be yet another link in this chain.
correlation
There is a great correlation between music and images.
numbers guy hollies
The Hollies, after I left in 1968, had the audacity, the gall, to have three number one records after I left. Thanks a lot, guys.
nice artist people
I don't have to ask anyone's permission to do anything. It's nice not have to get decisions out of three, sometimes four people, which can be like pulling teeth. So the amount of control that I have over what I'm doing is better for me as a solo artist.
writing opportunity ongoing
There are always new things to experience, internalize then write about. This process is ongoing with me. It never stops. The opportunity to reach new audiences with all of the music that we have made is thrilling.
song thinking longevity
I wasnt thinking of the longevity of any of my songs, but I am extremely pleased with the lasting effect.
long discouraged critics
If I read or listened to critics of our music. I'd have been discouraged a long time ago.
strong want way
With Crosby, Stills and Nash and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young...we're very strong individuals, and we want our lives to be led the way we want them to.
