    1. I figured Young was making a symbolic gesture, after all how much could he be making off of Spotify at a fraction of a cent per play. Turns out he still gets millions of plays per month. Who knew? Even old hippies can do that math. Whether you like him or not, he has and still makes a lot of money off his catalogue.

    2. In Young’s lp “Sugar Mountain, LIVE at Canterbury House 1968” tells the crowd that some Fast-food business wanted to buy the rights to one of his songs … but he said “NO” … “Absolutely NOT”. And the crowd cheered.

      “They” say Young is worth $200M … but I believe it is closet to $ 1/2 Billion. I have no idea why he needs anything whatsoever to do with Spotify. But the investment firm owned by Merck … yes … THAT Merck which owns half his catalog … Hipgnosissure as hell does. They bought the catalog for REVENUE stream. And Spotify is part of that REVENUE stream.

      Now you know why Young spoke out about the vaccines … Merck

      1. From my investigation, he makes at least 25K a month off of Spotify and that does not include songwriting royalties. That’s in USD. Not bad for an old Canadian hippy.

  4. “I’ll huff and I’ll puff and make empty threats, like my fellow traveller Juthtin Cathtreau!

  5. According to Dr Malone.
    The same investor group that bought half of N Youngs music copyrights also are the largest investors of Pfizer.
    Nothing to see here, please move along…..

  6. Neil Young & his Music belongs in the $3.00 and under bin at the back of a Wal-Mart, or a Re-Store in a box behind used toilets and bidets….in the Shitty Isle.

  7. Young and the rest of his counter culture cronies are frauds and always have been.
    I’ve said it before…if you want your eyes opened as to how much of a fraud they all are please read Dave Mcgowan’s book Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & the Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream . It was a WTH!!! moment for me.
    Utter depravity doesn’t even begin to describe these talentless hacks who only cared about one thing: Money and very very young girls.
    Someone should ask Young, Mitchell and Crosby about their relationship with Charlie Manson.

    1. K-Tel is in Winnipeg. They sell the digital distribution rights to their catalog to iTunes and Amazon.

  9. A totally irrelevant individual, that hissing sound on the sound track is not from the master tape but his deflating ego.

  11. Back in the day, Young reminded me of cat going into heat. Mitchell, Joni not Kim, sounded like an ululating wailer. Couldn’t stand listening to either of them. No wonder only stoners could do so.

    1. OMG! that is simply dreadful. Please tell me I don’t look and sound like that !! Cause I’m probably in their age group. And I do play a little guitar … 😮

      But I don’t play a Takeshitti … or hold it up around my man-teats.

  14. My favorite part about this whole episode was Rogan’s apology and talking about Young and Mitchell and how much he likes them. “I love that song Chuck E.’s in Love.”

  16. I hit the city and
    I lost my band
    I watched the needle
    take another man
    Gone, gone, the damage done.

      Cause nowadays Neil, he can’t even sing …

      Who’s that stomping
      all over my face?
      Where’s that silhouette
      I’m trying to trace?
      Who’s putting sponge
      in the bells I once rung
      And taking my gypsy
      before she’s begun
      To singing the meaning
      of what’s in my mind
      Before I can take home
      what’s rightfully mine.
      Joinin’ and listenin’
      and talkin’ in rhymes
      Stoppin’ the feeling
      to wait for the times.

      Who’s saying baby,
      that don’t mean a thing,
      ‘Cause nowadays Clancy
      can’t even sing.

  18. Never bought a record – changed stations every time I heard his sickening voice.

    But, no wonder he’s popular. He sounds like a turbo-charged version of every whiny Liberal I ever met. Or, as my Old Man used to say, “like a tomcat with his nuts in a trap”.

  19. Other than for the media covering Young & Mitchell pulling their music from Spotify, do you think anyone would have noticed?
    It’s a classic example of “if a tree falls & no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?”
    Seriously, very few people listen to their archaic music these days, especially the post boomer generations.
