Neil Young - Heart of Gold (Lyric video)

Neil Young - Heart of Gold (Lyric video) 🔔 Subscribe to Oops! All The Lyrics channel: https://bit.ly/4yA87XZ Neil Young remains one of the most influential figures in popular music, defined by a career spanning over six decades and a profound impact on the folk and rock genres. Emerging from the Canadian folk scene in the mid-1960s before gaining prominence in Los Angeles, Young established himself as a singular songwriter and performer. This track features Neil Young (vocals, acoustic guitar, harmonica) alongside accompaniment from Kenny Buttrey (drums), Tim Drummond (bass), Ben Keith (pedal steel guitar), and backing vocals from James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt. The song stands as Young’s only number one single on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains a cornerstone of his commercial success. The composition centers on Young’s distinctive high-tenor vocal delivery, sparse acoustic arrangement, and the prominent, melancholic harmonica melody. It defined the country-rock sound of the early 1970s, influencing a generation of singer-songwriters who prioritized raw, confessional storytelling. Originally released on the 1972 album *Harvest*, the record achieved multi-platinum status and solidified Young’s reputation as a primary architect of the folk-rock movement. This lyric video presents the complete text to "Heart of Gold," allowing listeners to follow the narrative arc of Young’s search for meaning and stability. The song maintains a permanent place in radio rotation and continues to resonate with audiences across multiple decades. Subscribe to the channel for more official lyric videos and classic rock hits. Welcome to Oops! All The Lyrics, a channel devoted to an increasingly rare luxury: knowing exactly what the song is saying. Here, the words are not hidden beneath dramatic lighting, questionable camera work, or someone walking slowly through an abandoned warehouse. They are presented clearly, carefully, and, whenever possible, in the correct order. Expect lyric videos for songs you know, songs you forgot you knew, and songs whose lyrics you have confidently misunderstood for years. Every word has been given its proper place. No interpretive dance. No unnecessary explosions. No opening monologue about destiny. Just the music. All the lyrics. An entirely disproportionate amount of attention to the words. For people who enjoy music, reading, and finally discovering that the singer was never saying what they thought they were saying. Oops! All The Lyrics. The words were here all along. I want to live I want to give I've been a miner For a heart of gold It's these expressions I never give That keep me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keep me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old I've been to Hollywood I've been to Redwood I crossed the ocean For a heart of gold I've been in my mind It's such a fine line That keeps me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keep me searching For a heart of gold You keep me searching And I'm growing old Keep me searching For a heart of gold I've been a miner For a heart of gold #NeilYoung #FolkRock #LyricVideo #ClassicRock
