I have never been a huge Neil Young fan but this song is pretty iconic for the era. Oddly my family is spread throughout the Ohio Valley.

One of those events in life that make you just stop and think what the hell is going on. I was 13 at the time found it all a bit surreal.

Meh, never really a Neil Young fan. But the story is worth a song to be sure.

Sad song, never heard it, reminds me of bloody sunday of U2. These songs are like the songs of troubadours, to tell us what happened, so we will never forget.

Sad story. Our western civilization out there is by no inch better. Though the means for mind control, opinion shaping, subtle (and not so subtle) civil oppression have come a far way.

great song. Has anyone mentioned Billy Joel’s “Goodnight Saigon”? I also used to play Elvis’ Suspicious Minds while running PBR boats during a game of FNG and imagine guys waterskiing behind the boat…..as you do

One of Canada best songwriters of all time. Rather sad that the USA needed an out wider Neil Young to speak out about the sorry state of things. Another good one from him is Southern Man that’s a bit political and speaks of the times.

Well I hope Neil Young will remember, a Southern Man don’t need him around anyhow!

To make light of a horrible event that shouldn’t have happened, for the spirit of a table game. There was I think 67 shots fired 9 unarmed protesters were wounded 4 were killed. Those guardsmen stats were BS 2. Good song tho. (And I think a number were bayoneted)
