yes!

neil young is awesome. he's type of artist that really has their hooks into me. i don't have a ton of his albums and some of his songs outright suck, but i love his style. his voice is ****ed up and his playing style is intentionally sloppy... and just pretty much does what feels right to him. he gets out what he wants to get out. to me, stuff like helpless and mr. soul are a few of my favorites. he's got a lot of grit. i like grit. people like lou reed and kurt cobain were basically ****ty when it came to technique but they were raw. neil fits that for me. i also think he can be a brilliant lyricist. expecing to fly, which i always seem to have mixed feelings about, has really awesome lyrics. great thread...
