This is one of the top 5 love songs ever written. I heard it the first time in the early 70's and it's as soulful today as it was then, thank you Neil Young.
... Bob, another top 5 Love Song, is Bob Dylan, performing, romance in Durango, Harvard Square version.... " aim well, my little one, we may not make it through the night".
Hearing this makes me me my late eldest brother who'd play this song on his guitar, sing, and teach me the harmony or 2nd voice. I love the 70s and 80s music. Pure love, pure lyrical, and melodious. Amazing era!
throughout the literary history in nearly every culture...heros are defined by their unique, talented and deep wisdom of soul, who can lay down words and/of music as a foundaton for others to stand, lean or hang on to... Neil Young has long provided a talent deserving of hero status. He has saved more than a few lives.
Agree I’m only 30 but my parents listened to this to it takes me back to a simpler time she. I was a kid and my parents weren’t divorced and still rich lol a better time for sure you nailed it bud!!
What makes me reflective and sad is to witness all those people at the wedding, children included, having such a momentary good time, laughing and enjoying themselves. I'm happy for them. Then I realize they are all dead now. Yet, we can still see and appreciate their joy. As if we too are at their wedding now. I hope the married couple lived a wonderful life together.
Just read that Graham Nash had a soft spot for this beautiful song. Memories...💕 (my best friend of over 60+ years has a daughter married to Nash's son. They are a gorgeous family 💖
I have always loved this song. I buried my dog George today, and it popped into my head and gave me so much comfort. Grief is the price we pay for love. Thanks Neill - you are such a decent human being and a damn fine guitar player. I'm glad we were both around at the same time and some of the same places tho you're a friend I've never met.Your music is a such a gift. Long may you run my friend.
I love Neil Young’s voice, it has such a tender quality to it. But it may seem a strange thing to say but I’m kinda touched with sadness watching this video, sharing a time in a group of people’s lives who are all most likely gone from the world.
The images are perfectly suited to the song. Its timeless sentiment is as true today as it’s always been. The video reminds me of the transitory nature of life, when the video was filmed these people were young with their lives ahead of them, now they’re long gone. Little did they now that they’d be immortalised.
I loved the way Neil sang this song. I also loved the old black and white vintage wedding. It reminded me of my grandparents wedding stories and the eternal love they share. Getting misty eyed here.
Thanks for posting this window into the past. I love to see the way people dressed. How things have changed! No saggy pants back then and no tattoos, except on dock workers.
I never felt this song so profoundly until my Pop's passing. When I was a little girl, I thought this song was about Boo Radley.. " I have a friend I've never seen.." Someone should call him.." This song leaves me in tears everytime I listen. Nothing is more devastating than the loss of love be it death divorce or a falling out with a friend or family member.Powerful prose.
movies are a trip, they make laugh, cry , sing and feel and learn about life. I felt so sorry for Boo, never ever coming out of that house except at night, cause he was afraid of people . He had been mistreated by his father, I think. To Kill a Mockingbird , it doesn't get any better.
OMG I've fallen way too far down the rabbit whole of the 1970s AND I CAN'T GET UP ... pls, don't help me out. I'm good Yess Canada was so much a part of this renaissance of great music.
Absoluely love this...brings back memories when I was a teen and would sit in my bedroom listening to this over and over again on my turntable...them were the days.
This is a lovely old song. Timeless. combien de fois peut etre rompu mon coeur avant que je vois et embrasser mon bebe elle a promis qu'elle viendrait a l'oiseau stupide je t'aime xx
Wouldn't it be providence if that young guy so determined to get in front of the camera turned out to be a movie star? Wonderful video married to a wonderfully bittersweet song. The images of the people waltzing in time is priceless.. PS: I still not sure if the bride is somehow related to John Travolta. LOL
the most beautiful raw version i ever heard was at a csny concert about 10 years ago. just neil and his piano. i swear it touched deep inside and pulled out pain i had clung to forever. the most incredibly touching music ever. that one song worth the price of admission. one of my best life experiences ever.
try to be sure right from the start* meaning, like in gambling, no perfect cards you're dealt will guarantee the jackpot, but if it is the best hand you can get, you are less likely to lose everything. Gives one the sense of security to play on without the fear of being swindled or defeated. This analogy transcends the songs meaning which in my mind is more basic of a concept than what you proposed which I'm almost certain isn't what Neil Young was going for.
It's hard as well to accept you can't be anyone's dear one. That could sound like it's been been written by somebody in his/her? 20's, and next day things could suddenly change, but no. I've spent 4 full decades on earth, and I do know I'll die at least as lonesome as I'm today.
That is what Oasis would say, take advantage of things that come your way. Who knows what is behind door no 500? Interesting how we get different prospective yet it can all be poignant. My take on things is Neil knows the sword has two edges and warns us. I don't think anyone plans on falling in love it just happens somehow. Elvin Bishop also has an interesting take on this, I fooled around and fell in love.
"Derek, I thought the same thing at first, but then after reading Donald Daugherty's comments I realized that the cars had the steering wheels on the right side of the car (which he so rightly pointed out), which they do in England.

Let the eternal love break your heart, then you will dance forever. When we stop chasing love "out there" and find it inside of us, this is true love - unconditional, everlasting, overflowing.
When I was young and on my own, I Ioved this song already. And yes, only love did break my heart and my world fell apart. But still I'm here, feeling stronger than ever and loving being on my own.....
37 1/2 years have taught me that such is just a Fantasy, not Reality. IF "Love" is real and is for everyone, then it should not be such a difficult thing to find and give and receive. It appears that it is ONLY FOR CERTAIN PEOPLE, NOT EVERYONE. BTW, I am the "Friend" that Neil sings about...or maybe, I'm one of the numerous people who hide a Dream caused by something that should not have but did.
Real message is to reach out to people who you think need help. Talk to them, don't ignor them when you see them withdrawing. A bad thing. Get connected with the people in your life or even strangers. YOU can make a difference. WE can make a difference in the lives of others and should. Broken hearts over romance only, is a small piece. The lonileness of life is unbearble for many people, get involved, any small way.The number of us with our heads in dreams is great! People are the ONLY cure.
A truly beautiful song from probably one of the greatest albums of all time. I saw him do this live at Finsbury Park in '93, it was and is the only time when a song has brought tears to my eyes at a live concert.
few of us...could ever fall in the footsteps of Neil Young....the first time i heard a song of his that changed my world.....which made me a die hard fan....neil young....i try to reach your registar but i never could...a land mark in Canadian mines
I remember dancing the 2 step to this with my then boyfriend Clark, I must've been 12 or 13...just heard it again for the first time in maybe 45 years and REMEMBERED EVERY WORD, every inflection, every note. One of my all time favorite songs....Thank you so much for posting it!!!
beautiful video to a gorgeous song. The sadness of all the participants this festive occasion, including the kids are all past now. it;s fun watching the young man trying to stay in all frames jumping up and down. what a fitting piece of A,mericana/ :Lovely match
'Only Love Can Break Your Heart When you were young And on your own How did it feel to be alone?

It is about his wife. Neil and the Cowgirl he loves reunited after over 30 years. He did stop doing drugs and she came back. She performed with him in his Redrock concert to show their reunion. All of his emotional, brokenhearted songs are about the Cowgirl he loves. This song plays beautifully on acoustic 12 string if you want to try it.
+Gerard Abbatte do you mean Susan Young? Carrie Snodgrass or Pegi Young? are do you mean the cowgirl is a composite of these...which is then clearly your own spin on it. He stopped smoking dope...has divored pegi and is dating Darryl Hannah...hes back on the grass though.
My sentiments exactly, peedutt! I never paid attention to him, Joni Mitchell, Jim Croce, James Taylor and many others at that time in the '70's because I've always been into Motown, soul music. Now that I'm older I can't get enough of this music! I share it on FB and 30 and 40 year olds comment how their parents, moms or dads used to listen to this music and still do. Thanks for uploading.

I'm up at 1:30 am on a Tuesday morning after playing in the band all night at the club. I was listening to a Nils Lofgren radio interview earlier in the day and found out he played the piano on this recording. This was the video I came upon and was mesmerized by the old "video" of what looks like a wedding reception. To look into the past and see that those people enjoyed the celebration just like us. The song technically has no connection and it's decades after but someone put them together and it was as Jon Anderson would say, "Magical". I will sleep happy tonight.
"They played this song on the radio so much when it came out! "I loved it "So Much", "So many Memories of how I felt in my heart back then"! "Thank you so much Neil"! ❤
I personally think it's not that people get their hearts broken because of Neil, I think it's the song that reminds people of their broken heart, of situations that happened in the past. People feel with Neil's words, they can relate to them, and often, being able to relate yourself with something or someone helps to ease the pain and speeds up the healing progress and for that I thank Neil Young.
LOVE the line “try to lose the down that he found” WHAT? How brilliant is that lyric? None of us desire to be down and removed from life, but sometimes we “find” sadness..or it finds us…and there it is. This song and the old clip breaks my heart every time. Although the young man “chasing” the camera makes me laugh.
This is FANTASTIC!! The world of black and white...so long ago. The images are spectacular... thank you for posting this!! And of course, one of my favourite Neil Young songs to boot!! :))
So glad I was born in a time Where Neil Young is alive
My Gosh, What a gem. This is one of the most beautiful and poignant pieces I ever listened to over and over and over and........ Sadly beautiful ❤
This is one of the top 5 love songs ever written. I heard it the first time in the early 70's and it's as soulful today as it was then, thank you Neil Young.

Just heard this song in Modern Love episode and it was so wonderful. Truly a masterpiece♥️♥️
I ❤️ the series season 2 episode 1 had me in tears! Had to stop the episode to listen to Neil Young….
Same here
Same
Same ❤️
Me too. Cried a bit, but it’s impossible not to, right?
Whose here from the 60's lamenting their lost loved ones? 😢💔🙏

This song takes me back to simpler days, oh how I miss them
YES

Agree I’m only 30 but my parents listened to this to it takes me back to a simpler time she. I was a kid and my parents weren’t divorced and still rich lol a better time for sure you nailed it bud!!
dont we all
Some people should live forever!
Just a masterpiece that has transcended time and era's gone by. There is only one Neil Young.

Quante volte l'ho ascoltata!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What makes me reflective and sad is to witness all those people at the wedding, children included, having such a momentary good time, laughing and enjoying themselves. I'm happy for them. Then I realize they are all dead now. Yet, we can still see and appreciate their joy. As if we too are at their wedding now. I hope the married couple lived a wonderful life together.
wonderful reflection and comment. Thank you for sharing John :)
Yes, they both lived into the 1980s and had seven children. Their family tree is on Ancestry. They were Solomon Gershcowitz and Rosie Carmel
thats beautiful.
Wonderful update.Thank you for sharing
Fret not...we'll be joining them soon enough.
Only a broken heart can be opened. Then the pain is transformed to joy which is not a curse but a blessing.
I sing this to my baby grandaughter - she loves the melody. She even tries to sing along - she's very verbal and loves music!
Thanks,
Superbe Neil Young.
Just read that Graham Nash had a soft spot for this beautiful song. Memories...💕 (my best friend of over 60+ years has a daughter married to Nash's son. They are a gorgeous family 💖
That was wonderful!!!!!
My heart just grows 3 times larger every time I hear this :)
Are you the Grinch? ;)
So beautiful song
Love this song
..., haha, and my heart shrinks to the size of a walnut, whenever I see this video! Yikes!
p
What a beautiful video
I have always loved this song. I buried my dog George today, and it popped into my head and gave me so much comfort. Grief is the price we pay for love.

I'm glad we were both around at the same time and some of the same places tho you're a friend I've never met.Your music is a such a gift. Long may you run my friend.
Burying a dog always hurts i had 5 german shepherds in my life everyone was special
Burying a pet hurts… I still miss pets I buried many.. they’re like a child…
What a cool enjoyable moving postcard of a different area. Thanx
I named my son “Neil” because I love Neil Young so much!
SO TRUE BUT WITHOUT REAL LOVE YOUR HEART WILL NEVER BREAK
Still tender and so evocative of heartbreak. Bittersweet tune.
as i get older.........my mind goes back to my youth now and then...its true....only Lovce can break your heart.....no other pain even close to it
I love Neil Young’s voice, it has such a tender quality to it. But it may seem a strange thing to say but I’m kinda touched with sadness watching this video, sharing a time in a group of people’s lives who are all most likely gone from the world.
Sadness?
Poignancy.
They had their moment , you have yours. Don't be sad .
Who ever put this film clip to this great song is a freekin genius, total respect to you
All ghosts Derek....they are all ghosts on film.
agree m8
Neil Young is the sheer poetic brilliance of all the bands he was in..my favorite for many years. His songs, the music and lyrics are artistic genius.
I went right to the start. Thanks large dog
The images are perfectly suited to the song. Its timeless sentiment is as true today as it’s always been. The video reminds me of the transitory nature of life, when the video was filmed these people were young with their lives ahead of them, now they’re long gone. Little did they now that they’d be immortalised.
Great video, fantastic song. Love all those young flappers looking for love at someone else' wedding!
Thank you again This song is one I need June 21 a fave of mine and my fiancee who passed that day, my birthday Peace And love!
So sorry to hear about your loss. God bless you.
All the feels, god bless
And you God bless you both stick together that's all that matters Love God bless
My high school sweetheart was born June 21 also. After we broke up, I played this cassette over and over
Hate to hear that... i hope you find someone great! She would want you to be happy
Brings back the seventies in my mind; so long ago.........But it feels like yesterday!
Gorgeous historical video to Young's classic song of love and heartbreak.....Love it...perfect.
Cute video..This song takes me back..awesome song..
I loved the way Neil sang this song. I also loved the old black and white vintage wedding. It reminded me of my grandparents wedding stories and the eternal love they share. Getting misty eyed here.

That's so nice to hear, would love to hear this version
WHAT A TUNE. . ONLY LOVE CAN BREAK YOUR HEART . THANK GOD FOR NEIL YOUNG
Timeless classic never gets old
Yes, beautiful indeed...AND...Trippy!
Im saddened by what people don't know about love. and how powerful it is, "Try to be true right from the start" Dont ever half step in loving someone.
try to be sure right from the start* meaning, like in gambling, no perfect cards you're dealt will guarantee the jackpot, but if it is the best hand you can get, you are less likely to lose everything. Gives one the sense of security to play on without the fear of being swindled or defeated. This analogy transcends the songs meaning which in my mind is more basic of a concept than what you proposed which I'm almost certain isn't what Neil Young was going for.
It's hard as well to accept you can't be anyone's dear one. That could sound like it's been been written by somebody in his/her? 20's, and next day things could suddenly change, but no. I've spent 4 full decades on earth, and I do know I'll die at least as lonesome as I'm today.

True love is a sanctified principle and takes a man and women that are dedicated to make it work, thru thick and thin.
What a beautiful song !
Love the vintage video. Simple and beautiful times. Now the world sucks and most of the people!!! 😥😭😩
In my experience, I have found Love is only for Certain People NOT ALL. Time heals NOTHING. The Wounds NEVER HEAL.

'Only Love Can Break Your Heart

Yes, only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see
If he can come out
Try to lose the down that he's found
But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes, only love can break your heart

It is about his wife. Neil and the Cowgirl he loves reunited after over 30 years. He did stop doing drugs and she came back. She performed with him in his Redrock concert to show their reunion. All of his emotional, brokenhearted songs are about the Cowgirl he loves. This song plays beautifully on acoustic 12 string if you want to try it.
+Gerard Abbatte I wonder who she is.
+Gerard Abbatte do you mean Susan Young? Carrie Snodgrass or Pegi Young? are do you mean the cowgirl is a composite of these...which is then clearly your own spin on it. He stopped smoking dope...has divored pegi and is dating Darryl Hannah...hes back on the grass though.
In his book he says it's about Graham Nash and I forget who his lover was at the time
Joni Mitchell
He sings it now for Joni, he changed the "he"s in "she"s, I think it's pretty sweet. :D
My sentiments exactly, peedutt! I never paid attention to him, Joni Mitchell, Jim Croce, James Taylor and many others at that time in the '70's because I've always been into Motown, soul music.

this is by far his best work
"They played this song on the radio so much when it came out! "I loved it "So Much", "So many Memories of how I felt in my heart back then"! "Thank you so much Neil"! ❤
I personally think it's not that people get their hearts broken because of Neil, I think it's the song that reminds people of their broken heart, of situations that happened in the past. People feel with Neil's words, they can relate to them, and often, being able to relate yourself with something or someone helps to ease the pain and speeds up the healing progress and for that I thank Neil Young.
Decent words
I love everything about this......Thanks
LOVE the line “try to lose the down that he found” WHAT? How brilliant is that lyric? None of us desire to be down and removed from life, but sometimes we “find” sadness..or it finds us…and there it is. This song and the old clip breaks my heart every time. Although the young man “chasing” the camera makes me laugh.

If you have never cried about somebody - for loss or joy - you've never been in love.
Hmmm.... interesting..
This is FANTASTIC!! The world of black and white...so long ago. The images are spectacular... thank you for posting this!! And of course, one of my favourite Neil Young songs to boot!! :))
someone should call him to see if he can come out. Try to lose the down that he's found. what a great line.
just found this today , fabulous
IM OLD NOW AND IT STILL FEELS THE SAME
so true - and so beautifully illustrated ------- thanks and praises . . . ....
It is far better to have loved & to have lost, than never to have loved at all.
