I can honestly say I didn't care for David Crosby too much before but now I'm a big fan , he just comes off as a genuine human being with no BS involved
I don't care how difficult he may have been, Crosby is a ridiculously talented musician and vocalist...and composer. I am glad I grew up with The Byrds and CS&N, and so great to hear is latest works. True musical giant, I don't care how many mistakes he made.
@@chipgaasche4933 I think some people feel that when you can sing great, play well, and write superb music you are a great musician. That's different from being a virtuoso on your instrument.
@@TheAerovons I'm under the impression that he was a good harmony singer..but not much of a guitarist. Also, can anyone name 10 truly great songs that he wrote? I can't. I put singers like Pavarotti in the "musician" category. Pop and rock singers not so much.
From one old-timer to another; You Sir, are someone I truly like even though we have never met. Your life experiences have given you a wisdom that few possess and fewer are willing to share these days. I have seen too much, been hurt too badly, and often feel the struggles of growing old, and yet I would not change a single moment of my life because it has brought me to where I sit today. I have found that peace and happiness I was seeking all those years. It sounds like you have too. That makes me happy!
David, you are one of the funniest, most insightful guys that I've had the pleasure to follow over the last 50 years, even when you were at your worst. Don't die anytime soon, thanks!
There's a photo over there of a guy hanging out with The Beatles. Just a couple of months before they made their best album. This is that guy. And now we are here in 2020 listening to him taking about internet. We are lucky I guess...
Ha! I’m sure at some point, yes definitely. But it seems to me that he’s trying to do the work of growing as a person and admitting past mistakes. Who are any of us to judge? ✌🏻😘
A lifetime of experience is gold, whether good or bad. There is so much knowledge that can be passed onto others that may well influence rational decisions. Never ignore experience, you may find the right path. I spent the last 50 years enjoying the music, and I'd like to spend the next 50 listening to what advice and tidbits David can share.
Love it! David Crosby I think you're a Great person to give advice. "Teach your children well" Looking forward to your up coming gig in Toronto. Your are a fabulous teacher David . Thanks Rolling Stone! Great Idea. Hunter S. Thompson would have been good at this too. May he be Resting in Peace. Thanks David! ✌💖🎸🎶♾👍 KEH 🇨🇦
I love you so much, David! Keep being that great man I've always known throughout my life. You've saved mine on more than one occasion with your melodies and lyrics. I love you.
Great advice, especially the last answer! I've heard good advice from even "worse" people. The guy who killed Lennon said "Don't kill people." Too little, too late. Now tell me something I don't know. All joking aside, it's great we have Croz still alive at this posting.
People are confident in their 20s because they don’t know jack shit! They are less confident later on because they have realized how little they know and how difficult life can be.
I had a horrible experience with David Crosby at Steven Still’s house in 1968 right after thy gave a concert at the Greek theatre. I’ve never forgotten the incident. I was sitting on the floor with Judy Carne and my cousin when suddenly Crosby appeared right in front of me, arms folded truculently, his shoes right against my legs, glaring down at me. I had never met this guy and had no idea what motivated his obviously aggressive and completely out of the blue behavior. I didn’t want to get in a fist fight with Crosby, even if he was being a monumental asshole. I was a guest. So I just looked down at the floor until he finally walked away. But I’ve always wondered why he did that and why he picked me. As I said, I had never had even the slightest contact with Crosby until that moment.
I thought "Are u kidding me? D Crosby giving advice?" I had to check it out. I found him to be giving really good advice. Much respect. Fire away. WAIT I WAS JOKING! I CANT STAND D CROSBY!
You are absolutely the one to give advice. You have to have been down that dark tunnel to know how to get out alive. Some one thats lived their life holding their momma's hand is no help.
who would I want to have a lunch and conversation with? 1a Bob Dylan 1b David Crosby 1c Al Pacino maybe simple here but oh the stories in each of them... national treasures all, Please more of this time engaging with a music icon.. TY
David i have seen CSN at least 6 times...last time was on your birthday almost ten years ago ..hoping you guys reunite before one of you guys leaves this world...love your music..youre body may be aging but your mind is still sharper than a tack....I love your newest music...Vagrants of Venice is awesome..Please tell me David exactly what tuning do you use in that song Vagrants of Venice????
I like this guy. I like his honesty, especially about himself in "remember my name'. I could be in a band with him, am fairly sure. Not so sure about Nash or Stills though.
I hope all of the young musicians will listen to this advice. So many others have DIED young as a result of drugs! I’ll never understand why they would even consider wasting their time & talents. Thanks for sharing your insights.
My advice to parents , take your kid to a Music Concert, take them to a Music Store , Buy them a Guitar or Piano . Give them a lot of space to do Art , and create a culture of creativity ..
Why not Croz? The people that fuck up the most, realize what they did, try to make amends and better themselves and the lives of others are the wisest people to ask advice from. People always ask me stuff cause they know what a fuck up I've been and at least I always try to make things better
"Of course it's in bad taste, you numnutz!" I haven't heard that expression since his best friend called my highschool fiance that. Speaking of good advice... don't get married in highschool, kids! And I didn't. But he gave his next fiancee my engagement ring. How's that for earning that moniker? (He was an early adopter of recycling 🤣)
The 60 year old woman is in a real bind, that the 60 year old woman famous celebrity David Crosby are not likely to understand. They can get divorced and have half of the community property, but most women in the US at that age are stuck. It is hard to have enough money to live, especially these days when cost of living and rent is so high, and forget medical care. That answer is a feel good answer that sounds good on the video chat, but it is a very hard project for someone in that situation to leave and maintain stability while they look for something new. And if you find someone else ... then what? It takes years to know and trust someone and if you get into economic dependency on that person you may be even worse off. Yet, it is true, it is possible.
RIP Mr. Crosby.. Will agree wholeheartedly the fellow in the pic. (at 4:30) doesn't look like him, but he sure is a ringer for Andy Reid (coach of the KC Chief's) .
so grateful you did these. don't ever delete them. they're wonderful to come back to. #RIPDavidCrosby
The coolest 78 year old on the planet. May you live forever Mr Crosby.
I can honestly say I didn't care for David Crosby too much before but now I'm a big fan , he just comes off as a genuine human being with no BS involved
5 minutes? Way too short. This stuff is gold.
Would love to see this be a weekly thing. Hes not only an amazing musician, hes a pretty bright man.
to the 60-year old woman - great advice Cros.. terrific
Robert ^^ is wondering how to contact that 60 year old woman
Advice from Davis Crosby??? I went from laughing to laughing and nodding my head in agreement. Hey, he's good at it!
Sorry, I meant David. Davis is probably the imposter.
Except the Trump. Typical clueless leftist.
Nobody can give advice like the guy that totally screwed it up, but fixed it.
I don't care how difficult he may have been, Crosby is a ridiculously talented musician and vocalist...and composer. I am glad I grew up with The Byrds and CS&N, and so great to hear is latest works. True musical giant, I don't care how many mistakes he made.
He could sing..but he was never much of a musician.
@@chipgaasche4933 He didn't advertise himself as Chet Atkins.
@@TheAerovons no..but people are commenting that he is a great musician. He never was.
@@chipgaasche4933 I think some people feel that when you can sing great, play well, and write superb music you are a great musician. That's different from being a virtuoso on your instrument.

RIP Mister Crosby ❤ You were & still are Love & Light! Keep shining & singing please, the world needs it! Much love & Thank you 🦋
Loves these little "advice from Croz.' The man knows how to cut to the mustard and does it with humor.
From one old-timer to another; You Sir, are someone I truly like even though we have never met.

David, you are one of the funniest, most insightful guys that I've had the pleasure to follow over the last 50 years, even when you were at your worst. Don't die anytime soon, thanks!
He's ALWAYS been known for having opinions, so Crosby as Heloise is pretty funny.
Danny Holmes 😂😂😂
I love Crosby's "Hints From Heloise" videos. Very entertaining. What a hoot.
Actual great advice. I didn’t know this man had that level of empathy👍🏻
There's a photo over there of a guy hanging out with The Beatles. Just a couple of months before they made their best album. This is that guy. And now we are here in 2020 listening to him taking about internet. We are lucky I guess...
Two of The Beatles are gone now, so I guess he's kind of lucky too.
Just curious which album you were referring to as "their best album"? 😎
Love David Crosby! 🎸🎼🎶🎤🎵
This is amazing stuff.
I've been a fan of Mr Crosby's, for years.
Love you David !!
Thankyou Mr Crosby I think you have earned the right to give advice. Greetings from Australia sir.
As soon as I heard the news I had to come get some advice from Croz. Rest in Peace to a true hippie through and through✌🏻❤️
I was just thinking of him the other day.
Glad he's still around. Such a legend.
Leroy,
more like freak of nature...
U should hear him sing. He's as good as was in his prime. Not exaggerating--he's amazing considering all the things he's been through
He's on tour this spring and early summer this year.
I laughed out loud at that last one 😂
I love him, a living legend.
He's a clueless punk.
Ha! I’m sure at some point, yes definitely. But it seems to me that he’s trying to do the work of growing as a person and admitting past mistakes. Who are any of us to judge? ✌🏻😘
@@stephanieroiland13 I'm not judging in the "God" sense..but we ALL judge.
He has SUCH lovely empathetic eyes AND speaks SO intelligently!!!!! Huzzahs David Crosby!!!!!!!
omg, when David showed that photo of his impersonator i nearly pissed myself lol
A lifetime of experience is gold, whether good or bad. There is so much knowledge that can be passed onto others that may well influence rational decisions. Never ignore experience, you may find the right path. I spent the last 50 years enjoying the music, and I'd like to spend the next 50 listening to what advice and tidbits David can share.
The best one yet! Fabulous, Mr Crosby (the real one)
Rock on David !!
You're one of the greatest.
Love it!
David Crosby I think you're a Great person to give advice.
"Teach your children well"
Looking forward to your up coming gig in Toronto.
Your are a fabulous teacher David .
Thanks Rolling Stone! Great Idea.
Hunter S. Thompson would have been good at this too.
May he be Resting in Peace.
Thanks David!
✌💖🎸🎶♾👍
KEH 🇨🇦
You’re absolutely fabulous Croz! No ifs ands or buts🌟🙏🏻🎸🎶💙🎶🎸🙏🏻🌟
I love you so much, David! Keep being that great man I've always known throughout my life. You've saved mine on more than one occasion with your melodies and lyrics. I love you.
Despite of his rise and fall from fame, he fires out and holds nothing back for himself. Bravo!
Great advice, especially the last answer!
I've heard good advice from even "worse" people. The guy who killed Lennon said "Don't kill people." Too little, too late. Now tell me something I don't know.

I love David Crosby. One of my favorite songs is Southern Cross.
People are confident in their 20s because they don’t know jack shit! They are less confident later on because they have realized how little they know and how difficult life can be.
True and I lost all my confidence over a year ago after a divorce and and mental health crisis which impacted everything! 😢

You were sitting on his drugs.
Well, that was 4 minutes and 54 seconds that I'll never get back. ...Oh, but yes, he is a great musician, and it's amazing he's still alive, etc.
Barney Gómez : David Crosby eres mi ídolo David Crosby : te gusta mi música ? Barney Gómez :eres músico ?
Tommy Chong spent time in prison bc he sent a bong from his company in Ca to a place on east coast where possession of a bong at that time was illegal
Sammy Scotch is that right ? I didn’t know that. In Australia a bong is legal until it’s been used.
@@craigkaschan4822 true. Its funny now to think a bong could be 🚫
Tommy deserved a lawyer, pro bono to fight his conviction.
I thought "Are u kidding me? D Crosby giving advice?" I had to check it out. I found him to be giving really good advice. Much respect. Fire away. WAIT I WAS JOKING! I CANT STAND D CROSBY!
Love these videos as much as his music !!!!
Thank you, David Crosby.Thank you!
You are absolutely the one to give advice. You have to have been down that dark tunnel to know how to get out alive. Some one thats lived their life holding their momma's hand is no help.
I hope he lives forever. His solo stuff over that last few years is fantastic.
Thanks David , you are an inspiration.
who would I want to have a lunch and conversation with? 1a Bob Dylan 1b David Crosby 1c Al Pacino maybe simple here but oh the stories in each of them... national treasures all, Please more of this time engaging with a music icon.. TY
I simply want to say I thought this was pretty awesome. . .candid, honest. . .dig it
That guy pretending to be David was HILARIOUS! LMFAO!!!
You need a PODCAST Croz. This was insightful and hilarious. CROZPODCAST.... PeaceOrElse
Wish I would have known this advice “column” when it first came out.
I enjoy David’s comments.
RS - Thanks for giving David another platform to speak thru...
Always fun to hear your thoughts... see you in June on the road in Toronto!
Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing him in Toronto too.
✌💖🎸🎶👍
David i have seen CSN at least 6 times...last time was on your birthday almost ten years ago ..hoping you guys reunite before one of you guys leaves this world...love your music..youre body may be aging but your mind is still sharper than a tack....I love your newest music...Vagrants of Venice is awesome..Please tell me David exactly what tuning do you use in that song Vagrants of Venice????
Almost peed myself laughing !
"I'm not giving in an inch to fear."
Perhaps … he feels like he owes it to someone 🤔
I’m hooked on these things! I hope he does many more…long may he run.
3:25 I liked it when he said "if you've got to tempt him with ice cream, go ahead" LOL good advice 😊 Also liked it when he said "Let me be me". Yes!!!
Didn’t Chong go to jail for selling bongs?
Yes he did.
@@allencrider Really...I thought it was a joke!~
I like this guy. I like his honesty, especially about himself in "remember my name'. I could be in a band with him, am fairly sure. Not so sure about Nash or Stills though.
I hope all of the young musicians will listen to this advice. So many others have DIED young as a result of drugs! I’ll never understand why they would even consider wasting their time & talents. Thanks for sharing your insights.
This is a GREAT series! Coz is cool.
Let me live to be as strong and as good looking as he is at that age.
Omy kidding of course
"In prison for making bongs??? Where were you,Russia?" 😂
My advice to parents , take your kid to a Music Concert, take them to a Music Store , Buy them a Guitar or Piano . Give them a lot of space to do Art , and create a culture of creativity ..
I'd be interested to overview the books in the library.
David looks good, the best he's ever looked since his twenties...
Croz speaks truth. Stay safe croz
Are you sure that guy was making bongs and not bombs but he made a typo lol
Helpless hoping for another round of doc Crosby's wit's n bits! It's been a long time coming ! Dr.Dave a wooden ship still sailing!
Very cool segment! Anyone else love his song "Leeshore". God I love that tune!
We love you, David. I take all of your advice seriously. We look forward to your upcoming show in Santa Cruz. Take Care
This is great!
Why not Croz? The people that fuck up the most, realize what they did, try to make amends and better themselves and the lives of others are the wisest people to ask advice from. People always ask me stuff cause they know what a fuck up I've been and at least I always try to make things better
Wow. This stuff is powerful. Thanks.
This is awesome. Thank you Croz!
Wise words Mr Crosby. And don't forget they asked Ozzy to do an advice column too.
David, you are a national treasure. We love you.
Loved his book Long Time Gone .What I want to ask though is have you ever almost cut your hair?
He gets on my nerves sometimes but God help me I love him! Oh, and there's all that music...
Priceless. Thank you, sir.
"Of course it's in bad taste, you numnutz!" I haven't heard that expression since his best friend called my highschool fiance that. Speaking of good advice... don't get married in highschool, kids! And I didn't. But he gave his next fiancee my engagement ring. How's that for earning that moniker? (He was an early adopter of recycling 🤣)
What is wrong with giving the next girl the ring?
I was told it was a bad omen to do so.
Plank Hill oh I see
I love David Crosby
I could watch these all day but then I might need his advice for phone addiction lol 😂
MORE PLEASE !
McGuinn won't Tour with him ever again. Shame would love a Byrds Tour in 2020.
Croz is looking like Mark Twain
David Crosby giving advise on life issues....! I must be really baked.............."
Wilford Brimley is looking good!
That was good.
4:30 LOL!
Please continue to do this 4ever
A NICE GUY AND A TRUE SURVIVOR FROM THE WORLD OF ROCK N ROLL.
god bless you david crosby...
The type of wisdom that can only come with age. :-)
Enjoyed comments. Peace
Greatest high harmony singer who ever lived and as for assessing everything else about him, to paraphrase Sid Vicious, "He did it his whyyyyyyy?"
Crosby stills & nash. The best carry on

The Mighty Croz ✌🏻Read his book, it’s rip roaring 🤠Listen to his records, they are really good 🎸🎶✌🏻
Don't forget the documentary that came out last year. It's brilliant.
