Neil Young

Before Neil Young graced the stage at the Vancouver Olympics Closing Ceremony on February 28, 2010, he had released his album 'Fork in the Road' in 2009. This album, inspired by his passion for electric cars and environmental concerns, showcased Young's ongoing evolution as an artist deeply connected with social issues. Performing 'Long May You Run' in front of thousands, Young not only highlighted his timeless appeal but also his ability to unite people through music in a moment of global celebration. Interestingly, this event was a notable return to the spotlight for Young, who has often been associated with numerous musical movements over the decades. His performance during such a high-profile event encapsulated his enduring legacy in rock and folk music, while also reminding us of his unwavering commitment to addressing contemporary issues through his art.
