Neil Spoof on Saturday Night Live

snl-kevin-spacey.jpg

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.

An indication that Neil would think this is funny is that the link is available at Neil's Garage...

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...

You mean that Neil didn't sing "Horse With No Name" ? I am crushed.... next, some one will tell me he didn't sing "Ventura Highway"..... Or that raisins are shrivelled up grapes....
;)
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?

Hello,

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).

Does anyone know the title of the real version of the 'oil and bush should mary' song. It sounded good.
