Neil Spoof on Saturday Night Live

Last week on Saturday Night Live, there was a skit with a takeoff on Neil Young's latest album "Living With War". The video is up on YouTube.

Kevin Spacey plays Neil Young complete with sideburn makeup and harmonica rack. Also, Dixie Chicks and Conor Oberst knockoffs.

Very funny stuff, especially the song titles.

Thanks to the Painter on Rust for the link.

Also, see more on previous appearances of the actual Neil Young performing on Saturday Night Live.

Excuse me, "horsewifnoname" -- please don't tell me that you're one of those NY fans that say, "I think his best song was Horse with No Name." then again, come to think of it, maybe he WAS the band America, and it was his way of introducing Crazy Horse to the rest of the world... because, in his career, at times, Neil HAS been through the desert on a Horse with no name." (given that certain infidels don't respect the Horse). just kidding, of course...

;)
Actually, I used to have another name, but being crazee wasn't an option anymore, so horsewfinoname seemed appropriate.... I DO live in the desert, eh?

June 1, 2006

When I watching the SNL skit on Neil Youngs new cd Living With War; I realised my initial impressions of this new cd was right. Neil is still thinking, he's not on my side and he's not on your side either (right where he should be).
