Neil Young and Crazy Horse "Psychedelic Pill"

"Ramada inn"

 

So many years now together?

All those good times, ups and downs

So many joys raising up those kids

Well they've moved on now, out of town

 

So many times she tried

So many times she cried

 

Every morning comes the sun

And they both rise into the day

Holding on to what they've done

 

She loves him so

She loves him so

She loves him so

She does what she has to

 

She loves him so

She loves him so

She loves him so

She does what she needs to

 

In a Ramada Inn near the grapevine

They stop to rest for the night

Traveling down south looking for good times

Visiting old friends feels right

 

People they haven't seen him forever

Since high school, Santa Jose times

Restaurant food and the bottle

Had a few drinks

Now they're feeling fine

 

Every morning comes the sun

And they both rise to the day

Holding on to what they've done

 

He loves her so

He loves her so

He loves her so

He does what he has to

 

He loves her so

He loves her so

He loves her so

He does what he needs to

 

Seem like lately things are changing

Seems like lately things are going south

A few drinks now and she hardly knows him

He just looks away and he checks out

 

And when she says "it's time for him to do something,

Maybe talk to his old friends who gave it up."

He just pours himself another tall one

Closes his eyes and says "that's enough"

 

Every morning comes the sun

And they both rise to the day

Holding on to what they've done

 

She loves him so

She loves him so

She loves him so

She does what she has to

 

He loves her so

He loves her so

He loves her so

He does what he needs to

 

Every morning comes the sun

And they both rise to the day

Holding on to what they've done

 

He loves her so

He loves her so

He loves her so

He does what he needs to

 

She loves him so

She loves him so

She loves him so

She does what she has to

 

 

Psychedelic Pill is the thirty-fifth studio album by Canadian musician Neil Young.

It was released on October 30, 2012.

This is the second release of a Neil Young collaboration with Crazy Horse in 2012, and their first original work together since the Greendale album and tour in 2003 and 2004.

The album was streamed on Young's website on October 24, 2012, and leaked onto the Internet the same day.

A Blu-ray Audio version of the album, with 24-bit/192kHz resolution, was released November 19, 2012.

A vinyl version is also available.

At 87 minutes, Psychedelic Pill is Neil Young's longest album and only studio album to span two discs.

Many of the songs on the album came out of extended jam sessions with Crazy Horse after Americana was recorded.

The opening track "Driftin' Back" makes references to Young's new memoir "Waging Heavy Peace" and his disdain for MP3s in between extended jamming.

Another of the album's epic tracks, "Walk Like a Giant" laments how his generation was unable to change the world ("We were ready to save the world / But then the weather changed.") Elsewhere on the album he recalls listening to Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" and The Grateful Dead on the radio ("Twisted Road"), and his Canadian roots ("Born in Ontario").

The Rolling Stone review noted that the riff and lyrics of the album's title track share similarities with Young's previous work such as "Cinnamon Girl".

The main riff is borrowed from Young's "Sign of Love".

That track also features the recording being filtered with a "phaser" effect, giving it a "psychedelic" feel (although the alternate mix removes the effect).
