I hope Neil Young gets a shotgun and fucking kills that asshole.

Fuck that's awful.

That dude claims he had Young's blessing, although it came after the song was recorded...

"We finished it and mastered it and the process of getting the sample cleared was next. So that leads me up to try and get this cleared for this great song. I thought 'well I just want people to hear it. I think it sounds very cool and it's important and it's got an icon singing in the chorus. Basically everyone said no. We got it to his manager and his manager said no. I didn't give up because I felt like until Neil who's the artist who wrote that song, until he says no I don't think it's fair that people are saying no just because he's a legend and he's iconic and no one touches his art. He has the biggest integrity of all of the artists ever combined, you can't do it it's sacrilegious. I thought it's not sacrilegious, it's using the inspiration and the gut feeling of what he felt back then. It's a new song, I'm not ripping him off. I'm paying him homage. I just wanted him to hear it. He actually heard it and when he did hear it, he said yes right away. He got it. He heard the song and he totally felt it. So, there ya go. Until you hear it from the artist, you never know what they're going to say. The worst thing they're going to say is no.”

Well then I hope Neil changes his mind and stand by my comments. It's still a very, very bad song. You shouldn't rap over anything from Neil Young's catalogue, let alone something off of Harvest.

Agreed.

I like all the comments on Youtube -

"Hey! My dad died too!"

"Sorry about your dad, bro. Mine's still alive."

Everyone's dad is gonna die, assholes.

I am not going to click on that link. I learned my lesson last time.

I did it, you have to do it too. It's only fair.

Get a crappy song stuck in my head and ruin another old song that I like at the same time? No thanks.

His car is stopped a red light I bet. That's why he's the king. The Red Light King.

It sounds like What It's Like by Everlast.

Matt's getting old and angry.

I only heard about 30 seconds of this song when I went to take a piss during COWBOYS & ALIENS. The lyrics hadn't even started, I just heard the sample with the drums and it was instant fury. I don't even like the Neil Young song all that much, it's just the bullshit fake-assed Kid Rock nature of the whole thing.

Fuck all of it.
