Neil Young - einer der Helden meiner Jugend. Auf das Lied Helpless bin ich aufmerksam geworden durch den Film " Blutige Erdbeeren " , der in den Kinos der DDR lief.......
Am I the only one watching this who is mesmerized by Patti’s twist - that she is, in fact, “...no longer...” helpless? She is able to completely transform the ending with a handful of words. A Master amoung masters.
Patti kinda took over. That was cool. I know she toured w/him. Saw that tour. Think she's talking about her kids running...whose dreams are far much greater than her own... Her bands singing too. Can hear Neil Young at the end saying "aww I didn't expect you to do that" (?). Poet. The PSG do a great cover of "Helpless" on their record "Twelve". All covers.
I've always liked Neil and Dylan, although that was my father's time. I'd never paid any attention to Patti Smith, but this is the best version to me. BTW, I am assuming she came up with this on the fly like many good artists can.
